In June 2017, Encino Energy and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB) formed Encino Acquisition Partners (EAP) with over a $1 billion commitment to acquire large, high-quality assets with an established base of production in mature basins across the lower 48 states of the US.
In July 2018, EAP acquired all of Chesapeake Energy’s Utica Shale oil and gas assets in Ohio for a total consideration of $2.0 billion.
