Masked Rider Energy (MRE) announced a complete asset sale of Green Hook Royalty Partners I, Ltd., a mineral investment fund, to a private seller on Wednesday, February 25, 2026.

The MRE leadership team aimed to select a straightforward investment carrying minimal exposure in the energy sector, choosing a mineral fund for this reason as well as its tangible nature. Targeting the natural gas-rich Haynesville region was attractive due to both the rise of LNG exports and the increasing demand for data center power generation. For these reasons, MRE anticipated that the demand for this commodity would continue to grow, providing an appropriate window to aggregate mineral interests amid the rising demand for natural gas. This analysis proved correct, resulting in 100% deployment of the fund in less than 12 months, and a complete exit 25 months from the date of the first capital call.

The team at MRE is proud of this fund’s success and the opportunity to generate a favorable return for investors.

MRC Partner, President, and Chief Operating Officer, Brooke Hobgood, was invited to join The Texas Lyceum, a civic organization founded with the intent to foster thoughtful dialogue on critical issues that resonate with Texans in a nonpartisan, nonpolitical, and non-adversarial setting.  

As a new class member, known in The Lyceum as Directors, Brooke will serve a six-year term during which she attends conferences, hosts programs and engages in statewide discussions about societal topics facing the state and nation. 

During her first summer as a part of The Lyceum, Brooke attended the “Beyond Borders: Immigration & The Texas Economy” conference in Mexico City, where she visited with international leaders at the home of the U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, Ronald Johnson.  

Upcoming Lyceum gatherings include a discussion about the components of today’s media relations landscape and the role of law enforcement in our communities.  

Open dialogue and the dynamics of interrelationships as it pertains to the ongoing discussions of today’s issues is a key focus for The Lyceum; however, developing the state’s future leaders remains its ultimate mission.  

“I am honored to serve as a Director with The Texas Lyceum. The group’s ability to bring individuals in both the private and public sectors together to address challenges and explore innovative solutions is transforming how the state affects positive change for all Texans.”
