Current program · open for the 2026 tax year

Own a piece of three new oil wells, next door to one that made 150,000 barrels in a year.

A direct working interest in Wyoming's Powder River Basin, drilled from the same pad into the same rock as a proven producer. Most of what you put in is deductible on your 2026 taxes. Accredited investors only.

You own the wells directly — not a fund, not a stock
Tanks and pipelines already built — oil sells from day one

What you actually own

A working interest, not a fund

You hold a direct share of specific wells in your own name. That is what makes the first-year deduction possible, and it is why you see every production report and every cost.

Your name on the interest

A recorded share of the wells, not units in someone else's vehicle. Monthly revenue statements and an annual K-1 come to you.

Graded against 2.2 million wells

Sean's Kingdom Scout platform screens every candidate program against public production records before he brings it to investors. Most get passed over.

Verified, documented, 506(c)

Open only to verified accredited investors, through definitive offering documents. Reserving a spot is non-binding; you decide after reading everything.

Your numbers

Estimate your income and 2026 tax savings

Pick your investment, tax bracket and state. The production numbers are what the well next door actually produced in its first year, at today's oil price. If you had owned this share of that well, this is what it would have paid you.

Before income tax

Real production, not a forecast. At 100%, the first-12-month figure is the neighboring well's actual, operator-reported first year of oil and gas, run through your share and today's price. Years 2 to 5 are an estimate of how that same well keeps declining.

New wells compared to the proven well 100%

100% = the new wells do as well as the one next door. Try 60% to be cautious.

This is an estimate — here's what it assumes

Production is modeled on the proven well's first year (150,000 barrels, ~300 barrels a day at month 12), then declines over time. Total of about 690,000 barrels over 30 years at 100%, below the operator's own 785,000 estimate.
Investors keep 77% after royalties; Wyoming production taxes 13.5%; operating costs $8 a barrel; oil sells $4 under the quoted price; gas adds about $2 per barrel of oil.
Tax: about 75% of your investment is deducted in 2026; the equipment portion is written off in 2026 federally and over 7 years for state. 15% of income is tax-free each year (depletion). Assumes you hold the interest directly.
Oil price held flat. Real results will differ and you can lose money. Not tax advice — check with your CPA.

Why this year

The tax code rewards drilling. December is when it pays.

Fund by December 31 and the deduction lands on your 2026 return, even though the oil comes in 2027.

~75%

Deducted in year one

About three-quarters of a well's cost is labor, fuel and fracking. The IRS lets you deduct that the year you invest (it calls these "intangible drilling costs").

100%

Equipment written off

The rest is equipment — pipe, tanks, pumps. Under current federal law that's written off right away too. Your state may spread it out.

15%

Of income tax-free

Every year the well produces, 15% of your oil and gas income is tax-free (the IRS calls it "depletion").

To deduct this against your wages, you hold the interest directly in your name, not through an LLC. The well must start drilling within 90 days of year-end. Your CPA should confirm your situation. Read the plain-English guide →

Who's behind this

Sean Pruitt

I made my first oil and gas investment in 1994. My job is to find the right projects, do the homework, and bring my investors in alongside me.

I don't drill wells — I partner with operators who already do. I picked this program because the proof is sitting right next to it: a producing well with a year of real numbers.

What could go wrong — read this

One great well is evidence, not a guarantee. The new wells can produce less, and well 3 is in a different rock layer.
Wells like this slow down fast — the one next door went from ~750 to ~300 barrels a day in its first year. Most of the income comes early.
Oil prices move. Lower prices mean lower checks and a longer payback.
You pay your share of any cost overruns and ongoing operating costs.
You can't easily sell your interest. Tax rules can change.
You can lose some or all of your investment. Only invest money you can afford to have tied up for years.

Questions

Straight answers

What exactly do I own?

A direct piece of the new wells (a "working interest"): your share of the oil and gas they sell, and your share of the cost to drill and run them. After royalties, working-interest owners keep 77 cents of every dollar sold.

Who is the operator?

An established Wyoming operator that drilled and runs the well next door and owns the pad and pipelines. Name, well details and the full package are shared after a short confidentiality agreement.

What is the minimum?

Programs are sold in fractions of a well. Most investors come in between $50,000 and $250,000. Use the calculator to see what a given amount means in 2026 tax savings and share of production.

When would I start getting paid?

Monthly, once the wells are producing. First checks usually arrive a couple of months after the first oil is sold.

How big is the 2026 deduction, really?

Typically about 75% of your investment, plus the equipment portion under current federal law — if you fund by December 31 and hold the interest directly. Use the calculator above, then confirm with your CPA.

Do I have to be accredited?

Yes. Generally that means $200,000+ income ($300,000 with a spouse) or $1 million+ net worth not counting your home. A third party confirms it before you invest. Not there yet? Start with the free Oil School audio course.

Is "see if I qualify" a commitment?

No. It holds your place and gets you the full package. You decide after you've read everything.
