Direct Participation. The Good The Bad and The Ugly

Oil and Gas Leasing Help
1

Hi I have been researching the pros and cons of investing in the drilling of an oil well. I am interested in investing in areas with a good success rate and higher probability of getting a return on my investment. I’m not interested in wildcat drilling. I’m thinking the right way to go about it is to find a company that is drilling a well that looks promising and see if they will let me invest in it. Do any of you have experience in this area? I would like to hear your success stories, failure stories, and your advice. Thanks

Elmer,

I wrote an article on this very question because I've had so many people ask me about this topic over the years. Here is a link to it:

I think you'll find this very informative. Feel free to share it with others. It's located on www.Mineralweb.com, a site dedicated to quality education for mineral and royalty owners.

Hello Elmer, You have asked a good question investing in oil wells - I know since I'm an oil and gas auditor.
