Williams named EnCore COO as company transitions to operator

EnCore Permian, Midland, has appointed Ted Williams as partner and chief operating officer.

Williams is responsible for the company’s operations department as it transforms from a historically transactional leasehold and mineral acquisition firm to an oil and natural gas exploration and production company. As part of the transition, EnCore will deploy its first rig in north Reeves and Culberson counties in Texas at yearend.

Founded in 2017 as a successor to PetroLima LLC, EnCore currently holds about 10,000 acres of horizontal drill-ready assets in the Midland and Delaware basins.

Williams most recently served in executive officer roles in partnership with Luxe Energy and Luxe Minerals.
