Raisa Energy

What Raisa Energy does

Raisa Energy is a Denver-based private exploration and production (E&P) company founded in 2014 that owns and leases mineral and non-operated working interests across North America. The firm operates at the intersection of oil and gas asset ownership, investment management, and proprietary technology, leveraging an AI- and Big Data-driven platform to perform real-time risk valuation across its energy investments.

The company manages over $2 billion in energy sector investments through its core platform and a captive full-stack technology subsidiary, Raisa Tech, based in Cairo, Egypt. Raisa Tech supplies developers, designers, and data scientists who build and maintain the firm's automation, predictive analytics, and structured data processing systems, which the company describes as an "exoskeleton" for energy subject-matter experts in investment decision-making. The company operates offices in Centennial, Colorado and Cairo, Egypt, with 51-100 employees.

Raisa's business model generates revenue by enabling institutional and high-net-worth investors to access mineral and non-operated working interests at scale, with go-to-market executed through direct enterprise sales. The firm is led by founder and CEO Luis Rodriguez and has been backed by EnCap Investments through funding rounds in 2016 and 2019. In January 2026, Raisa was invited to the White House to participate in discussions around a $100 billion Venezuela energy investment push, signaling a strategic expansion of its deal sourcing into international, sovereign-adjacent E&P opportunities.
