Firm’s non-operated platform has distributed $8.2 million to investors as it launches a $40 million fund for the fiduciary wealth and tax planning community
MCKINNEY, CA, UNITED STATES, September 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Invito Energy Partners, a Texas-based sponsor of institutional-quality direct energy investments, today announced the opening of the Invito DrillCo 2026 Fund, a diversified non-operated working interest fund offering up to $40 million to accredited investors. The offering opened August 3, 2026, and is scheduled to close December 31, 2026.
DrillCo 2026 is the firm’s seventh fund under a non-operated strategy launched in 2023. Across the prior six funds, Invito has deployed more than $62 million of investor capital into development wells in six U.S. basins and has paid more than $8.2 million in cumulative distributions to investors as of the second quarter of 2026.
“We built this platform for RIAs and their clients who want direct energy exposure without the layers of cost that usually come with it,” said Steve Blackwell, CEO and Managing Partner of Invito Energy Partners. “Six funds in, the model is doing what we said it would do: meaningful deductions in the year of investment, quarterly cash flow behind it, and no commissions, no markups, and no annual management fee standing between the investor and the wells.”
The fund acquires fractional non-operated working interests in development wells drilled by established operators, giving investors a direct share of each well’s revenue, costs, and tax treatment without operating responsibility. Because working interests are excluded from the passive activity loss rules under IRC §469(c)(3), the deductions generated can offset ordinary income — a structure designed for investors facing a concentrated tax year from a business or asset sale, a large bonus, a stock option exercise, or a Roth conversion.
DrillCo 2026 targets 15 to 20 wells and underwrites a base case of 1.75x to 2.0x multiple on invested capital, exclusive of tax benefits. The fund carries no leverage and runs no commodity hedges. It charges a single 10% one-time management fee included in the unit price — reduced to 8% for investors who subscribe before November 20, 2026, and for investors in any prior Invito fund — with no sales commissions, no reallowances, no markups on acreage or Authority for Expenditure costs, and no annual asset management fees. Investors receive 96% of net distributable cash flow until full return of capital and 75% thereafter.
The offering is made under Regulation D, Rule 506(c) with a $50,000 minimum investment. Distributions are paid quarterly and are targeted to begin approximately nine months after closing.
