Why Invest in Oil and Gas Wells?

Some of the world's wealthiest individuals and companies made their fortunes in oil and gas!

POTENTIAL HIGH FINANCIAL REWARDS

Return of Capital in as little as 12 to 24 months.

Better than 10 to 1 Potential Return on Investment.

Greater than 50% Annual Rate of Return.

Add balance and serve as a hedge for "stock and mutual fund heavy" portfolios.

RISK

Focus on development of existing fields with proven reserves, thereby reducing or eliminating the risk of "wildcatting" dryholes.

Reduce risk by utilizing state-of-the-art technologies not available even 10 years ago.

Available projects would be economically attractive if oil and gas prices fall 30%.

TAX BENEFITS

Drilling and Recompletions are the very best tax advantaged investments.

Congress gives tax breaks to individual investors that are not available to large companies.

DRILLING PROSPECT AVAILABILITY

Small drilling and recompletion prospects are better than ever (and there are more of them).

COMPETITION

The large oil and gas companies have gone offshore and overseas in search of finding the "big" oil fields.

Over 10,000 oil companies have left the U.S. fields since 1982.

DEMAND/CONSUMPTION

Petroleum demand in the U.S. requires nearly 60% of oil to be imported from foreign nations.

Natural gas is difficult and expensive to store. U.S. consumption of natural gas has outstripped production in recent years, leading to soaring gas prices.

GOVERNMENT

Encourages domestic drilling with special tax breaks.

Mandating natural gas usage over oil and coal.

Natural gas is now deregulated.

WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY

Traditional sources of drilling money are no longer available, which is a bonanza for accredited investors. Oil and Gas prices are projected to stay at high levels for at least the next 5 years.
