(Sept. 19) – Houston lawyers from Latham & Watkins and Vinson & Elkins filed an S-1 late last week for The Woodlands-based Smart Sand, Inc., which provides sand for hydraulic fracturing to exploration & production and oilfield service companies such as EOG Resources and Weatherford.
It is the fifth initial public offering filing for a company tied to the energy industry this year.
According to the S-1, Latham corporate partner Ryan Maierson is representing Smart Sand in the IPO, which is slated to raise up to $100 million.
V&E partners Alan Beck and Julian Seiguer are listed as counsel for the underwriters, Credit Suisse and Goldman Sachs.
Friday’s S-1 is the fourth IPO filing for Seiguer to handle in 2016. V&E has been involved in all five filed this year. Latham has been on two.
Earlier last week, Seiguer and Latham’s Sean Wheeler also handled the IPO filing for Denver-based Extraction Oil & Gas. Seiguer worked on another IPO filing for Englewood, Co.-based Vantage Energy.
