OilPods: Oil and Natural Gas Leases Ownership Possibilities.. for You and I and the People Next Door

Do you ever has a dream of owning a oil and/or natural gas-producing land? Well, today, you and I... and the people next door are given the opportunity to play in the big-boyz' playgrounds - at least a fraction of 'em - this concept is called retail investment in oil and gas... jargon, jargon...

OilPods, a Singaporean company, market ownership deeds (called working interests) to investors resides in Asia region. You can own oil and/or natural gas-producing land for as little as USD 5,000 (USD 10,000 in Indonesia for somewhat reason).

OilPods is a marketing company for a number of projects from Powder River Basin and Gas Corp. (PRVB), a US small-capped-going-public oil and natural gas drilling company. PRVB focuses on already-producing oil/gas fields, therefore significantly reduces risks (watch the video of TV coverage on OilPods).

Up to the date of this post, PRVB has "outsourced" the marketing of 8 projects to OilPods, with the latest project - a natural gas project - Biamante, has started on 1 August, 2007 at Goliad County, Texas, US. The project offered working interest, representing up to 26% of the Biamante Project Field for USD 10.5 million. Should you invest USD 10,000, you'll end up owning 0.095% of the field. A bit smallish, but, hey, you own a part of the gas field! The USP, is the ROI they claimed to be achieved within 2 to 3 years of involvement in the project (3.5 years, conservative projection), plus 1.5% to 3% of cashflow thereafter for a total investment period of more than 10 years, all depend on the fluctuating energy commodity prices and the oil/gas reserve that, they claim, always goes beyond the forecasted. Whoa! that's right... should the reserve will be depleted in 10 years, you may enjoy 7 years of passive income out of your investment!

Interesting? you bet! By investing in oil/gas field, you are enabled to diversify your investment porfolio. And, you own a real asset - unlike your savings and mutual funds.

Wait, wait, wait! what about risks involved? well, EVERY investment ALWAYS involves a certain degree of risks. Even your savings involve a certain amount of risk. In this case, instead of high risk high gain of oil exploration projects, your investment in OilPods projects brings you low-to-medium risks and more-medium-than-low gain. The risk? environmental risk, including storms that often happens in US, and shorter-than-expected fields' life span.

I'm interested in investing in the Biamante projects. It's a new project, thus by entering early, I have a chance to enjoy more years of passive income. Should you interested in the project or the retail investment concepts, just e-mail me for more information. I believe this is a new form of investment, by building a community to leverage power to fund the projects, as well as share ownerships (it's a trend, according to TrendWatching.com).
