The announcement follows Lucid II’s recent $1.6 billion recapitalization
through strategic investments from Riverstone Holdings LLC and the
Merchant Banking Division of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., which
positions Lucid II for continued growth in the Delaware Basin. Lucid II
is expanding its leadership and operating teams to meet these growth
opportunities by continuing to deliver best-in-class service to its
high-quality and growing customer base.
“We are fortunate to have Joe join our team,” said Lucid II CEO Mike
Latchem. “Joe brings a wide range of experience that is of immediate
value to Lucid II, and he will play a central role in our long-term
strategy. His public company experience and M&A background will be key
to Lucid II’s continued growth in the Delaware Basin and the midstream
marketplace.”
“I am honored to join the Lucid II team and look forward to helping
build and expand the business,” Mr. Davis said. “Lucid II’s assets sit
on top of some of the most prolific production areas in the Delaware
Basin, the Lucid II team serves some of the best oil and gas producers
in the business, and the company is supported by outstanding financial
partners.”
Before he joined Lucid II, Mr. Davis was general counsel and an adviser
to the Kayne Anderson Special Acquisition Corporation. Prior to Kayne
Anderson, Mr. Davis served for 10 years as general counsel for the
EnLink Midstream companies and their predecessors. He has served on
various boards, including Matador Resources Company and Howard Energy
