Trace’s current portfolio comprises 11 active investments including Rushmore Resources, Rockies Resources, Canes Midstream and BANGL Pipeline.
“We believe our investment process, team and proven track record form the foundation of an advantaged energy investment platform for institutional investors, entrepreneurs and businesses seeking to capture real energy returns available today while also taking advantage of opportunities created by the world’s critical low-carbon priorities,” Marye added.
In addition to Marye, Trace will be led by Stu Porter, Geer Blalock, Steven Smith, James Obulaney and Anil Pillai along with the rest of the current energy resources team.
Porter, who founded Denham Capital, will continue to serve as the firm’s CEO, chief investment officer and managing partner as well as senior partner of Trace.
“Denham is proud to have created and fostered the Energy Resources investment platform, and I look forward to remaining involved as a Trace Capital partner, investor and contributor to its continued success,” Porter commented in the release.
Denham Capital remains headquartered in Boston and is focused on investing in and supplying the critical components of the global energy transition including metals and minerals, infrastructure and clean energy generation assets, according to the firm’s website.
