About
Vesta is an ocean carbon removal company developing Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) using olivine — a common volcanic mineral that naturally weathers to increase ocean alkalinity, causing the ocean to absorb more atmospheric CO2 as part of its natural carbon chemistry. In 2026, Vesta received the first US federal permit for open-ocean carbon removal — a landmark regulatory milestone that opens the path for the entire ocean alkalinity enhancement sector. Vesta is backed by venture capital with an affiliated nonprofit research arm that publishes monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) methodologies.

About
Diamondback Energy is one of the largest and lowest-cost oil producers in the Permian Basin, founded in 2007 and headquartered in Midland, Texas, trading on Nasdaq (FANG).

Pro forma for Endeavor, Diamondback produces approximately 880,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day from its combined Midland and Delaware Basin acreage. CEO Travis Stice, a founding team member, has built Diamondback through disciplined bolt-on acquisitions and operational efficiency from a small Permian pure-play into a basin titan.
