Blackstone Announces Agreement to Acquire Enverus

August 6, 2025

New York, NY – August 6, 2025 – Blackstone (NYSE: BX) announced today that private equity funds affiliated with Blackstone (“Blackstone”) have entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Enverus, a premier data analytics energy intelligence platform, from Hellman & Friedman and Genstar Capital.

Enverus was founded in 1999 and is a comprehensive data analytics platform empowering its customers’ capital allocation and asset optimization decisions across the entire energy ecosystem. Today, it is the largest and fastest-growing SaaS company and analytics provider dedicated to the energy market. It enables its 8,000 customers across 50 countries with real-time access to analytics, insights, and benchmark data from generative AI and partnerships with more than 95 percent of U.S. energy producers and 40,000 suppliers.

“This is more than a transaction – it’s a launchpad,” said Manuj Nikhanj, CEO of Enverus. “Blackstone shares our conviction that the future of energy will be defined by AI, real-time intelligence, and bold execution. Their global reach and deep expertise across energy, infrastructure, and data-rich industries will accelerate our momentum – helping us scale faster, build smarter, and deliver transformational outcomes for our customers. It is thanks to a strong partnership with H&F that Enverus is the company we are today. I am incredibly proud of what our team has built – especially our breakthrough work in power markets – and more excited than ever for what comes next.”

Eli Nagler and Bilal Khan, Senior Managing Directors at Blackstone, said: “As the leading energy-dedicated SaaS platform, Enverus’ advanced analytics and technology solutions are critical for its customers as they navigate unprecedented AI-driven electricity demand growth and the broader energy transition. We believe Blackstone’s energy market expertise and network can further enhance the company’s growth trajectory, and look forward to partnering with Manuj and the Enverus team.”

“After four years of tremendous partnership, Enverus stands as the clear SaaS, data, and analytics leader empowering the energy market,” said Ben Farkas, Partner at Hellman & Friedman. “We set out with a mission to build on the company’s core strengths, accelerate innovation, and expand its reach across the energy value chain. Today they are pioneering GenAI-powered solutions, scaling into new markets, and enabling smarter and more efficient decisions for customers worldwide. The company’s growth and culture of innovation have set a new standard for the industry. It’s been a privilege to partner with Manuj Nikhanj, Jeff Hughes, and the full Enverus team. We are confident Enverus is exceptionally well-positioned to shape the future of global energy.”

“Supporting Enverus through this exciting period of innovation and growth has been a great journey,” said Eli Weiss, Managing Partner of Genstar Capital. “We’re proud of the team’s achievements and are confident they are well positioned for continued success.”

Enverus represents the latest in a number of recent transactions Blackstone has announced behind its high-conviction investment themes in electricity demand growth and the ongoing energy transition, such as Potomac Energy Center, Sediver, Westwood Professional Services, Trystar, and others. Blackstone’s core private equity strategy, Blackstone Energy Transition Partners, and Blackstone’s private equity strategy for individual investors are each expected to invest in Enverus as part of this transaction.

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the year, subject to customary conditions. Citi and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC acted as financial advisors and Kirkland & Ellis LLP acted as legal advisor to Enverus and Hellman & Friedman. RBC Capital Markets, LLC served as financial advisor and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP served as legal advisor to Blackstone.
