The London-listed firm described DCRD as a special purpose acquisition vehicle sponsored by an affiliate of its investment manager, which was seeking to capitalise on the Riverstone platform to identify, acquire and operate a business in industries that could provide opportunities for "attractive risk-adjusted returns" in one of the number sectors focussed on global decarbonisation.

"Riverstone Energy is a closed-ended investment company that invests exclusively in the global energy industry across all sectors," the board explained in its statement.
