From DESMD X, Owner of The Big Foot Field
Overview
As equity partners, we seek to maximize our profits while minimizing our risk.
Bread and butter
We are reworking existing wells, most of which we drilled ourselves just a few years ago. These low-cost, long-lived conventional wells are proven producing wells, so the investor risk is mitigated by the published history of production. We are scheduling chemical treatments and setting proper equipment to increase production, and turn them back on, and expect to be selling oil within 30 to 90 days.
Skin in the game
We bought a $1.7 million field and secured a $250K surety bond. As a side note, we negotiated the price down from $7 million due to our reputation and relationships in the industry.
Did our homework
Our founders learned a lot about this field using a $40 million fund to drill over 100 wells. Also, we continue to maintain an excellent reputation and relationship with the Texas Railroad Commission, our regulatory body.
