investments in energy companies traditionally associated with a greater potential returns have been, with corresponding risks, than any other type of investment. The high-risk/high-potential certain classes of these companies (commonly referred to as “Cats”) drove investment for many years. There are many such opportunities are available today. However, the fund oil and gas investment to projects where significant risks moderate dollar and expected yields of 20% to 40%, the focus will be the norm.

risks and dollars are moderate risk by investing in projects fitting three categories. In descending order of risk are:

1 Possible reserves: Known, agricultural land in an area where additional reserves may be separated from proved reserves by faults. These types of projects are of great interest among the independent energy companies and investors because geological data from existing wells is in the development of the geological hypothesis of aid. The risks and dollar risk is moderated because the existing geological evidence dramatically increases the probability of success.

2 Probable Reserves: These type of projects abandoned oil and gas wells in potentially productive areas of bypassed gas in gas prices under $ 0.75 per thousand cubic feet (BCF test was used). Natural gas is now more than $ 00 per MCF and is expected to increase in value as the pressure for a clean burning, non-imported fuels rises. The risk is moderated because geological data of the original is available for the geological hypothesis to develop, making the likelihood of a successful new wells.

3 Proven Reserves: The sub now most actively pursued. After a discovery well found hydrocarbons in commercial quantities, a multi-well drilling to exploit newly discovered reserves will start. The interesting part of these projects is that in many cases, large oil companies have already discovered on the ground, but it failed, their minimum size criteria (such as the large oil companies usually do not even meet to consider the development of an area if it less than 50-50 is a good project. 3-4, and the project is not worth their time. Yet, to a lesser themselves and their investors, March-April Well project can be very lucrative. freelancers, they have the capital, could Nuggets pick up “to let the big oil companies behind them.

In descending order of risk, both risk and dollar risk is moderated by investing in by:

1 A well-known area of production in an area where reserves could be separated from the proved reserves of faults.

2 Re-enter oil and gas wells abandoned to test areas of the natural gas production.

3 A program of drilling multi-exploit proven reserves.
