Two Six Alpha is a closely held energy investment and holding company — minerals and leasehold, water logistics, and power adjacency — anchored in the Utica and Marcellus.
Project Centum · Year One: six engines spanning upstream interests, unitization, water & logistics, proppant, midstream easements, and power-adjacent land — a 365-day plan to compound value from molecules to watts.
Year One upstream focus: the liquids-rich Utica/Point Pleasant window across a six-county Ohio core — minerals, leasehold, and royalty interests assembled under Project Centum’s E1 engine, with Marcellus depth as the long-duration book.
Two Six Alpha Intermodal Terminal on the Ohio River — water, barge, and rail under one operating envelope for completion, industrial, and power-adjacent demand across the Marcellus / Utica fairway.
Basin gas and contiguous partner land as feedstock for power and compute demand — the sixth Centum engine and the far end of the molecules-to-watts chain.
The operating plan behind the public thesis — from ownership of the molecules through water, sand, easements, and power-adjacent land. Day One: 3 August 2026. Day 365: 2 August 2027.
Ownership of the molecules — minerals, leasehold, non-op WI, ORRI, upstream JV, and NPRI — in the liquids-rich Utica window. Six acquisition sleeves, each with its own pricing basis and cure cycle.
Scattered acreage becomes a marketable position when it sits inside ordered units. Tract rosters, participation, and owner depth are the platform’s native edge.
An information engine as much as a revenue engine. Controlling water and haulage buys advance knowledge of who is completing — and when — before public permits.
Modern completions consume sand the basin cannot source locally. An in-basin position converts a cost line into pricing leverage and forward completion visibility.
The right of way that moves the molecules — corridor intelligence and easement agreements that make holding the path worth more than the acreage under it.
Partnership with the basin’s largest contiguous landowner — contiguity that makes midstream defensible and power load physically sitable next to its fuel.
Screening narrative only — not a securities offering or solicitation. Dollar figures are Year One plan targets across six engines, not AUM or contracted revenue. Engine status badges (contracted · finalizing · optionality) mark build state; they are not underwriting marks.

Two Six Alpha has assembled approximately 10,000 acres of mineral and leasehold in the volatile oil / liquids-rich window of the Utica/Point Pleasant — spanning Harrison, Belmont, Carroll, Guernsey, Monroe, and Tuscarawas. In partnership with landowners, approximately 42,000 acres across Southeast Ohio and Northwest West Virginia.
The Bardall/Owens prospect anchors the portfolio at 3,099 gross acres across 26+ lessors, complemented by Cyrus/Freeport and a robust top-lease pipeline. Entry costs of $2,500–$3,500/acre compare to modeled NPV10 of $12,321/acre on offset type-curve economics — a compelling risk-adjusted entry versus IPO-implied valuations in the basin.
Validated by step-change well performance from offset operators including EOG Resources, Infinity NR, and Ascent Resources — combining advanced geological targeting with modern completions.

Midstream water and logistics on the Ohio River — frac, industrial, and power-adjacent demand, at Cresap Bend, West Virginia.
The Two Six Alpha Intermodal Terminal is our flagship midstream position on the Ohio River — a 58.33-acre riparian site at Cresap Bend, West Virginia. Water, sand, rail, and barge under one operating envelope for frac, industrial, and power-adjacent demand along the Marcellus / Utica fairway.
Direct Ohio River barge access for inbound sand & aggregate and outbound proppant logistics. Unit-train capable 120-car rail loop with connections to Northern Appalachia frac sand corridors. A ~100-mile logistics ring covers active Utica/Marcellus drilling across Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia from a single dispatch point. Project Centum’s E3 engine treats water & logistics as both revenue and information — advance visibility into completion programs before public permits.

Two Six Alpha’s platform spans upstream minerals and leasehold, midstream water and logistics, and the strategic adjacency of power and compute load that increasingly competes for Appalachian gas molecules.
We do not position as a regulated utility or a datacenter developer. We position as a founder-led investment platform that understands the full chain — rock, water, logistics, and the power demand super-cycle reshaping where capital wants to sit in the basin.
Utica / Marcellus minerals and leasehold — liquids-rich rock in a six-county Ohio core plus Marcellus depth.

Owning or partnering across minerals, water logistics, and power adjacency reduces coordination friction pure-play capital cannot easily buy.
Power and datacenter are the third vertical in an integrated chain — not a standalone developer brochure. Conversations start with basin position, feedstock reality, and water/logistics adjacency.

A closely held investment, acquisition, and holding company combining operational knowledge, in-house legal expertise, and conviction-driven capital allocation across Appalachia.
Mission: Two Six Alpha continues to build assets across the energy lifecycle — from exploration and development, logistics and midstream, to generation and consumption. Project Centum is the Year One operating plan: six engines, 365 days, a $250M value-creation target.
Headquartered in Texas and operating across Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia, Two Six Alpha is the sole party to every transaction — a single, vertically integrated platform spanning minerals and leasehold acquisition, working-interest participation, midstream water & logistics (anchored by the Two Six Alpha Intermodal Terminal), in-house title and curative, and a proprietary technology stack (GIS, unitization intelligence, recorder-office monitoring, deal management, unit economics).
We believe the Appalachian Basin has multi-decade potential. By combining deep operational knowledge, in-house legal expertise, and disciplined capital allocation, we are built for the next generation of energy investment in Appalachia — from molecules to watts.

Two Six Alpha is primarily self-funded by its Co-Founders. Long-term partner capital is welcomed selectively through jointly owned Special Purpose Entities (Texas or Delaware LLCs) for which Two Six Alpha serves as managing member.
The company does not raise capital through private placement memorandums or other regulated securities offerings. Skin in the game on every deal — not a management-fee business dressed up as a partnership.
Title, lease drafting, regulatory matters, and SPE administration run in-house — reducing coordination tax on every transaction.
Co-Founders self-fund the platform and invest alongside every SPE.
No state income tax. Established oil and gas partnership law. Energy-focused service ecosystem.
