'Investing in Oil & Natural Gas with Private & Industry Partners'
Oil & gas prices are consistently higher than ever before...and the latest technology is being implemented to help investors in the oil & gas business today make some very attractive returns on their money...don't pass this opportunity by, because as most investors know, timing is everything...it is particularly so, and is very much the case with oil & gas investments right now.
Tax advantages, and tax benefits, that can be taken during the initial development stages of new oil & gas drilling efforts, plus even more tax write-offs... that can also be taken during the completion, and production stages of oil & gas development, can make the over-all returns that are possible, especially when factoring-in cash flow from successful wells, outstanding...
Consider making an investment in oil & gas... it is just too good to pass-up right now...as usual, as almost everyone knows...this is particularly so, when you are investing with the right people, and at the right time, and place...call or email me to find-out who I recommend... and I'll pass-on your request for information from a company I regularly invest with, and who I believe is the best of the private, and independent oil & gas companies in the US oil & gas business today...Dennis W.

'Investing in Private or Public Oil & Gas Diversified Investment Programs?'
When you are trying to decide whether to invest with a private, independent oil & gas company versus a public company's stock, you have to understand the key differences between the two ways to own, and invest in oil & gas...first, the private, independent oil & gas company is selling you a working interest, or royalty interest in actual oil & gas wells....second, and most important, when you invest in oil & gas well development with a private, independent company, most, and usually all of the tax advantages, and tax benefits are passed through to the private investor...not so when the investor puchases stock in a public company.
If you purchase stock in a public company you must either sell the stock, or find a stock that pays dividends, or you don't realize a profit...remember, you don't make a profit in the stock market until you sell...the stock may go up, but you don't actually realize the profit, unless you sell, and take the profits...furthermore, stock prices are subject to a myriad of forces, both market, and political, etc. Public companies often have high overhead to maintain their presence in the marketplace, large employee staff, and the responsibility to advertize, and grow their business...but not necessarily to put more money in your pocket...if they are successful, and the stock price actually reflects this success...you hope to be able to make a profit...I believe it usually takes too long, and if the over-all market timing is bad for the stock market...you are left holding the stock, and wondering whether to stay the course or sell...I believe choosing the 'right'...private, independent oil & gas company may just be the way to go for you if you are qualified.
On the other hand...when you invest in actual oil & gas wells, you are expecting cash flow to be paid out of production sold from the oil & gas wells...usually, small private, and independent oil & gas companies sell what they produce right away, therefore their emphasis, is on quickly developing and getting the oil & gas wells into production in as timely a fashion as possible...
However...when a public oil & gas company...such as a developing growth oil & gas company, is engaged in the discovery of an oil & gas field or fields, and building it's associated infrastruture...and this public oil & gas company is doing so with the public's money, the sense of urgency is often missing...and in many cases, higher stock prices will lead... the actual success of the company, and eventually, many stock deals stagnate, or go South, and stay there before ever making it to a senior stock exchange where market makers, and markets exist for the company's stock...In my opinion...there are too many variables for the individual investor to control to be able to get short term, or even mid-term profits with a public oil & gas growth company...
If you really want to make money in oil & gas at the 'grass roots' level, and be able to have an equal chance to make money in the development end of the oil & gas business with the 'big boys'...you need to be with the right...and best private, independent oil & gas company around...furthermore, this oil & gas company needs to be in the right place, and developing at the right time to make a profit, and keep you as an investor....I know of such a private, independent oil & gas company, and if you are interested...just call or email me, and I will forward your request for investment information from the company I regularly invest with, and have found to be the best at what they do in the US today...Dennis W.

'Investing with the Right Oil & Gas Independents'
The truth of the matter is sometimes elusive, but most often, it is usually more about using your common sense to discover it...How much looking should you do?...You should do as much as it takes to get comfortable...and as long as you are getting the facts that you need, you are going to feel good about your-self, and your final decision to invest with a company you have thoroughly evaluated.
I might add, the oil & gas company you are looking at should make this easy for you, with a website, email updates, and seamless communications with all of the key people you believe it is necessary to talk to, and get the answers you know you must have to make an intelligent decision. The break through natural gas, and oil investments are all about drilling in the right place at the right time with the right people...
Within the last six months the oil & gas business, at least from a technical perspective, has changed drastically...we now have much better, 'cutting-edge science' to guide us, and far less guess work goes into to selecting the best locations to develop oil & gas prospects today...If you would like to find-out how this has happened, and what has changed so dramatically very recently, give me a call, provide your email, and I will get you into the update loop with a mover and a shaker in our energy industry...you won't be dissappointed, instead, you will know you did your homework, and you'll find-out how exciting, and very profitable this new oil & gas business has become...
You shouldn't feel sorry about it later, or after the fact...You owe it to your self to properly analyse any investment, and the company offering-it, or don't make the investment. You will hate yourself for not doing the investigative work...In his book, 'Beating the Street', by Peter Lynch, one of the best stock pickers ever, tells you how, and why he made sure he always did his due dilligence...take a hint and 'Just do it!' Contact me for more information, and find-out who I recommend, and invest with in the oil & gas business. I'll request the company to send you their latest investment package....Dennis W.

'Investing in the Best Oil & Gas Prospects in the US'
I believe the oil & gas business just got a lot more interesting for you active investors...we now have much better...and more accurate methods of finding large commercial reserves of oil & gas than ever before...and this is making our business even more exciting, and profitable... than in the recent past...especially because of the new technology, and again...much more accurate process of verifying targets where the biggest, and most likely recoverable reserves of natural gas, and oil are and will be found...
Our computer power, and speed available now, plus having access to a huge historical data base of oil & gas data...is making the identification process much more of a 'check-list technique' of finding the best reservoirs of both oil & gas, than ever before... and as a result this is where production revenue is being established in the big numbers...
How big? How about establishing on line production of eight million cubic feet of natural gas per day, and 860 barrels of oil per day, while on a 4/64ths choke...from a single well...for those of you with some technical expertise...To make a long story short...this rather expensive and deep well in the gulf states area will pay-out in less than six months at current pricing in the marketplace. I see quite a few of these new wells being brought on line these days...
You can diversify in a production package, or participate in a number of single wells to spread-out your risk...and take the excellent tax write-offs as well...this is a perfect time of the year to invest because you will have all year long to generate cash flow, and take the big first year Intangible Drilling Cost (IDC), write-offs...these IDC'S can be 80% or more of your original investment in the first year of your investment...You also take depreciation and get a 15% or more depletion allowance on the revenue side each year...
