CEO Perspective

“Our team is truly like no other,” said Candor President and CEO Darrel Hagerman. “We have a tremendous amount of experience and understand that every producer has unique needs. We spend a lot of time meeting face-to-face in our customers’ offices and getting our hands dirty out in the field, where we work alongside producers to get a first-hand look at their challenges and opportunities. We think that’s the best way to really get to know our customers and develop effective midstream solutions that start at the wellhead.”

“Candor has been blessed in so many ways. We are humbled and excited to work with EnCap Flatrock. We engaged with several potential financial sponsors, but ultimately chose to work with EnCap Flatrock. Our core values are aligned, which provides a sound footing to navigate the ever-changing industry landscape. EnCap Flatrock’s wisdom, sound business fundamentals, financial strength and foresight will help us execute on Candor’s aggressive growth strategy.”
