WHY INVEST IN ENERGY?
![Page 26: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
WHY INVEST IN ENERGY?• Inflation Hedge• High Financial Rewards• Cash Flow (Mail Box Money)• Diversification• Tax Benefits• Competition• Lease Costs• Drilling Prospect Availability• Demand / Consumption• Oil Production Trend • Price Forecasts• Drilling Costs• Technology• Environment• Government Endorsement• Money Crunch
![Page 27: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The Sinking US Dollar
![Page 28: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Three Boogie Men
• Inflation – (As the government spends its way
out of the current economic downturn.)
• Demand – rapidly increasing
• Supply -- rapidly decreasing
![Page 29: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
“If you think $140 oil was bad, wait until exploding Asian demand overwhelms global markets and America's suppliers cut us off.”
Weiss Research, Inc.
![Page 30: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
HIGH FINANCIAL REWARDS
• Producing Wells – 10-20% Cash-on-Cash Return
• Developmental Wells – Average 85% success
25% to 100% Annualized Return on Investment
• Exploratory Wells (Wildcats = 10% to 50% Success)
100 to one Return-on-Investment
![Page 31: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
RISK
• Drilling is becoming less risky.• Occasional projects have a probability
of success better than 90%.• Many projects would be economically
attractive even if oil or gas prices would fall 50%.
![Page 32: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
COMPETITION
The big money has gone offshore, because there are “too few easy-to-find big oil fields” remaining onshore in the USA. (To quote Mobil Oil Co.)
– Over 10,000 small oil companies have left the arena since 1982.
![Page 33: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

QUALITY OF DRILLING PROSPECTS
Because big oil companies are pulling out of the USA, the quality of small drilling prospects are getting better.

LEASE COSTS
Oil companies are not as anxious to renew oil leases.
(so lease costs are low)
![Page 37: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Demand / Consumption
• U.S. consumes 25% of world’s petroleum.
• Asians are becoming like Americans, with an automobile or two in every household.

U.S. OIL PRODUCTION TREND
• USA production began decline in 1973
• Over two-thirds of USA onshore oil wells are “marginal”. (Less than 10 barrels per day)
![Page 45: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

U.S. Oil Imports• 1970 – 30% During OPEC Oil Embargo (Remember the gas lines?)
• 2012 – 61.2% Imported (High was 66% in 2006)
(What would happen if OPEC cut us off again?)
• 2030 – possibly 73% Imported. U.S. Office of Technology Assessment says:
“This will Bankrupt the U.S.A.”
![Page 48: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
USA’s Dangerous Addiction to IMPORTED OIL Imports have exceeded 66% of U.S. consumption!(USA paid over $51 per barrel just to maintain a military presence in the Middle East)

ENVIRONMENT
Sierra Club endorses natural gas, wind, solar, and geothermal
(Combustion by-products of natural gas are carbon dioxide and water).
![Page 52: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Benefits of Natural Gas
• It’s Clean – “Green Energy” • Fuels energy efficient vehicles• Generates our electricity • Warms our homes• Cools our homes• Heats our hot water• Cooks our food• The “Fuel of the Future”
Oil and gas has become a “necessity”
![Page 53: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
What Will Gas Prices do over the next decade?
Gas Price Historical Statistics ($/MCF)• $5.00 Approximate price
– “We are currently at historically low energy prices”
• $5.15 Ten Year Average• $15.00 Highest Price during the past 10 years
What is your guess?
The price of Natural Gas in 10 years will be: ________ $/MCF. The price of Oil in 10 years will be: ________ $/Barrel
What increase do you expect in your energy costs - Oil, Gasoline, Natural Gas, Etc.

GOVERNMENT
• Encourages domestic drilling with special tax breaks.
• Mandates natural gas usage over oil and coal.
• Natural gas is now deregulated.
![Page 55: The Oldest Energy Property Clearinghouse and the First Website in the Petroleum Industry](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/56814e40550346895dbbad2f/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
TAX BENEFITS
• Congress gives tax breaks to individual oil investors that are not available to large oil companies.
• 100% tax deductible ... 65 to 80% written off in first year• Up to 100% tax-free income.

CONGRESSIONAL TAX INCENTIVES
U.S. Congress provides great tax incentives to stimulate private investment in drilling.
These incentives are not "Loop Holes" – they were placed in the Tax Code by Congress to encourage investment in oil and gas, thereby making drilling one of the best tax advantaged investments.

INTANGIBLE DRILLING COST TAX DEDUCTION
The Intangible Drilling Cost (IDC) - labor, chemicals, mud,
grease, etc. - usually about 75% of the cost of a well. IDC is 100% deductible during the first year.
For example: a $100,000 investment would yield approximately
$75,000 reduction in taxable income during the first year of the venture. These deductions are available in the year the
money was invested, even if the well does not start drilling until March 31 of the following year.
(See Section 263 of the Tax Code.)

TANGIBLE DRILLING COST TAX DEDUCTION
Tangible Drilling Costs (TDC) are 100% tax deductible over a seven-year period.
In the $100,000 example above, that is $25,000.(See Section 263 of the Tax Code.)

ACTIVE VS. PASSIVE INCOME
• The Tax Code prohibits the offsetting of losses from “Passive” activities against investor’s “Active“ businesses.
• The Tax Code specifically states that a Working Interest in an oil and gas well is not a "Passive" activity,
Therefore, deductions can be offset against income from active stock trades, business income, salaries, etc. (See Section 469(c)(3) of the Tax Code).

SMALL PRODUCERS TAX EXEMPTION The 1990 Tax Act provided special tax
advantages for small companies and individuals. This tax incentive, known as the "Percentage Depletion Allowance", is specifically intended to encourage small investor to participate in oil and gas drilling. This tax benefit is not available to large oil companies The "Small Producers Exemption" allows 15% of the Gross Income (not Net Income) from an oil and gas producing property to be tax-free.
(See Section 613A of the Tax Code.)

ALTERNATIVE MINIMUM TAX (AMT)
The Tax Code specifically exempts Intangible Drilling Cost (IDC) as a
Tax Preference Item. "Alternative Minimum Taxable Income" generally consists of :
Adjusted gross income, minus allowable AMT itemized deductions, plus the sum of tax preference items and adjustments. "Tax Preference Items" are preferences existing in the Code to greatly reduce or eliminate regular income taxation. Included within this group are deductions for excess Intangible Drilling and Development Costs and the deduction for depletion allowable for a taxable year over the adjusted basis in the Drilling Acreage and the wells thereon.
