(MENAFN- The Arabian Post) clearfix">Houston-based Alpha Energy forms Alpha Energy International to acquire and modernise mature oil fields; Tennor provides $500 million funding facility

HOUSTON, US – Media OutReach Newswire – 2 October 2026 – Alpha Energy, the Houston-based oil and gas upstream company, has formed Alpha Energy International to lead its expansion outside the United States and has sold a 65% stake in the new company to Tennor Global LLC.

Tennor has agreed to arrange Alpha Energy International with a $500 million funding facility, allowing the venture to move quickly on acquisitions in selected countries, including Venezuela. Alpha Energy International will be responsible for all of Alpha Energy's future activities and investments outside the USA.

<p> The new company will initially target mature producing fields and difficult-to-recover reserves. Alpha's leadership team will develop the assets and run operations, while Tennor, as majority shareholder, will support the venture through its network of relationships in the target countries.</p><p> <b> Lars Windhorst, Founder of Tennor Global, said:</b>“Alpha's team has a rare track record of turning around mature fields at scale, and we believe that expertise is exactly what many producing countries need today. Tennor's role is to open doors and provide the capital to move quickly. Together, we intend to build an international oil company focused on getting more from existing fields, working in partnership with host governments and national oil companies.”</p><p> <b> Thomas Reed, CEO of Alpha Energy International and founder of Alpha Energy, said:</b>“The combination of Alpha's technical and operating expertise with Tennor's financial support and deep knowledge of key international markets provides the basis for a new type of international oil company.</p>See also  Bain Capital and Omnam Group announce the sale of the Lake Como Edition Hotel to Sansiri Capital <p>“Our strategy is simple. More oil remains in existing conventional fields than has ever been produced, and since the late 1980s, improvements in technology and engineering have added more recoverable barrels from existing fields than the industry's total greenfield exploration success. Alpha is on a mission to acquire and modernise these legacy fields. Better recovery of the world's existing oil and gas resources is Alpha's fundamental value proposition, and with Tennor we have the reach and resources to act.”</p><p> <b> A team built on the Yukos turnaround</b></p><div class='code-block code-block-2' style='margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both; width: 100%; height: auto; background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249);'>
