IDIF Expands with US$12 Million Royalty Acquisition in the Eagle Ford
Invico Diversified Income Fund (“IDIF” or the “Fund”) is pleased to announce it has completed a new royalty acquisition in the Eagle Ford basin of Texas, further strengthening its position in one of North America’s premier oil-producing regions. The transaction makes the Eagle Ford the Fund’s largest basin by both production and revenue and further diversifies its energy portfolio, bringing the composition of royalty interests and non-operated working interests closer to an even split.
The acquisition builds on IDIF’s previous investment in the Eagle Ford basin in 2024 and adds immediate production and cash flow through 48 gross producing wells. The assets are operated by Verdun Oil Company, a leading private Eagle Ford-focused producer with over 110,000 boe/d of production as at Q4 2025.
In addition to current production, the acquisition holds future development upside through approximately 40 infill drilling and refracturing locations.
“This transaction reflects the tenacity, discipline, and technical depth of the energy team at Invico Capital Corporation,” said Rob King, Executive Vice President, Energy Investments. “Since the opportunity first came to market in December 2025 in a more challenged commodity price environment, the team remained engaged with the seller and continued to evaluate creative transaction structures as commodity markets experienced volatility. Their technical expertise, commercial judgement, and persistence were instrumental in bringing this transaction to completion.
“The acquisition further strengthens IDIF’s presence in the Eagle Ford basin, which remains particularly attractive because of its proximity to the Gulf Coast. This supports lower transportation costs and improved realized pricing relative to more infrastructure-constrained regions.”
The asset was purchased through IDIF’s U.S.-based subsidiary company, Invico Energy U.S.A., is expected to initially contribute approximately 250 boe/d of production, and is 78% liquids-weighted across approximately 605 net acres in the Eagle Ford basin.
