[DeTomaso] NPC Bakken Formation Investment Pitch I just recieved

[boyd casey]

It's funny we were just talking about this and the facts concerning the size
of the oil reserve. This is an investment pitch , but it sites the Rand
Corporation as the source for some of the "facts" mentioned. Just thought I
would pass it along.

**Marathon Oil reports profits up 41%. Shell Oil profits soared to $8
billion. Chevron's profits are up 43%.

If you want "in" on this profit ride, take advantage now of this temporary
oil price break to invest in a massive new oil discovery beneath American
soil.

The demand for energy is still relentless. And easy-to-tap resources are
ever scarcer. For Americans, there's a discovery beneath the wheat fields in
Dakota with an estimated 18 billion barrels of oil – probably more. Enough
to feed your portfolio solid cash for some time to come. Please read below
on why Bakken belongs in your future.
  *This is probably the most significant financial event of your lifetime...
*  *Grandson of Eccentric Texas Oilman H. L. Hunt Could Help You Pocket
$400,000 This Year.*  You may have missed Southwestern Energy rocketing from
$0.82 to $47. You may even have missed Paladin Resources gapping 2,386%
higher in 24 months. But you’re NOT going to miss this one!

The modern oil industry was born on a hill, down the road from the King
Ranch, south of Beaumont, Texas. The natural elevation was formed by a
massive underground salt dome moving toward the surface since the Jurassic
Age.

As it crept up over millions of years, it pushed the little mound of Texas
prairie higher and higher. This salt dome formation came to be known as
“Spindletop.”
Back at the turn of the century, ranchers punched holes in the ground
looking for water, not oil. Drillers viewed oil zones as an irritating
nuisance and drilled right past the formations to find the water they were
seeking.

Into this world came an interesting character...

*The Prophet of Spindletop*

A self-taught geologist and one-armed mechanic, Pattillo Higgins believed
that modern industry would switch from coal to oil in the future.

Higgins had a hunch that black gold lay beneath his feet at Spindletop. In
1892, the wildcatter started drilling a well on top of this salt dome out on
the prairie.
Eight long years of frustration followed...

*The press, as well as the local geological community, viewed Higgins as a
stark raving lunatic. Sensible Texans laughed at him. *

On the morning of January 10, 1901, Higgins’ well on Spindletop literally
exploded. Roughnecks scrambled to safety as the ground started to tremble
and the derrick collapsed.

Six tons of four-inch drill pipe shot up out of the well. Mud and sludge
bubbled up. Natural gas whistled out. And then there was a dull roar that
could be heard for miles.

>From the depths of the salt dome, crude oil spewed out of the ground with
unprecedented force. The gusher blasted 200 feet into the air, running wild
for 10 days before it was capped.

The Spindletop well filled 3 million barrels the first year and 17 million
the second. The oilfield had a greater flow than all of the other oil wells
in the United States combined.

This salt dome oil formation on the Texas prairie was responsible for
creating oil industry giants: Amoco, Humble Oil Company and Gulf Oil.

Spindletop blew the lid off the fledgling oil and gas industry in the United
States. Nothing would ever be the same again. This gusher ushered in the
modern age of petroleum.

*Today, 109 years after Pattillo Higgins pocketed millions on a hill near
Beaumont, there’s a new oil boom. And this is bigger than Spindletop. Heck,
this is bigger than all of Texas!*

The Bakken Formation is a West Virginia-size oil deposit in the Williston
Basin, a geological formation underlying much of North Dakota, eastern
Montana, northwestern South Dakota and southern Saskatchewan and Manitoba,
Canada.

To put this into perspective, the Bakken oil reserves are 5 times the total
proven reserves of Chevron, Gazprom, Exxon Mobil and ConocoPhillips
combined, and twice the size of Saudi Arabia’s Ghawar oil super-field.

The Energy Information Administration (EIA) recently published a report
which stated, “A study provides estimates ranging up to 503 billion barrels
of potential resources in place.”

Independent analysis from the RAND Corporation says there are hundreds of
billions of barrels of recoverable oil in the Bakken.

*The Bakken Formation presents individual investors with the oil investment
opportunity of a lifetime. You literally stand to make more money here than
you’ve earned over the course of an entire lifetime.*

In helping loyal subscribers profit from my award-winning energy investment
newsletter, *The Energy Strategist*, I’ve always adhered to a
boots-on-the-ground approach with investment analysis.

When my team flew into Minot, North Dakota and headed west, our goal was
simple: separate hype from reality concerning Bakken oil investment
opportunities on the Northern Plains.

Just past Williston, off old State Highway 85, you start to get a sense of
what is truly shaping up to be the biggest oil boom in 109 years.

*Bakken oil has spurred hundreds of Jed Clampett-like true stories in North
Dakota of ordinary folks getting rich overnight. *

At Daizy Duke’s Diner over in Hazen, the regular breakfast crowd in mesh
farm caps is talking about a Tupperware saleslady becoming an overnight
millionaire from oil royalty payments.

In Buffalo Gap, you hear about the descendants of Scandinavian and German
homesteaders trading in battered farm trucks for a Cadillac or Lincoln.

Out here on the edge of the nation’s breadbasket, nobody ever gave much
thought to what lay beneath the Durum wheat fields. But there’s black gold
two miles below.

In North Dakota, the only question in my mind was *which* oil company in the
Bakken would end up becoming the big winner. The answer soon became crystal
clear.

Up and down the Red River, the locals all talked about one little oil
company locking up the oil leases...

*And one thing’s for sure: Third-generation wheat farmers in North Dakota
know a heck of a lot more about who’s signing oil leases in the Hell Creek
delta than any so-called “expert” in New York City. *

After carefully analyzing the balance sheets, leases in the Williston Basin
and drill test results of 372 oil exploration, development and production
companies, it turns out the locals are right.

Operating in stealth mode, one under-the-radar wildcatter has seized control
of over 453,000 leasehold acres within the oil-rich Williston Basin of North
Dakota and Montana.

The little independent is successfully leveraging advanced drilling and
completion technologies: horizontal drilling, multi-stage isolated fracture
stimulations and 3-D seismic imaging.

And the company has drilled over 50 wells this year in its Williston Basin
acreage. And that number is expected to quadruple.

As the half-witted brokers and bankers on Wall Street put two and two
together in the next 6 months, my top-secret recommendation is going to
explode!

And that’s not the half of it...

*It turns out this little-known wildcatter is secretly backed and controlled
by the Hunt oil dynasty in Texas! *

My sources tell me the Hunt oil dynasty is pulling the strings up in North
Dakota. And that’s no surprise. When it comes to controlling massive oil
deposits, the Hunt clan has a long and storied history.

In 1930, eccentric oil tycoon H. L. Hunt—a fourth-grade dropout and former
mule-team driver—purchased the Daisy Bradford No. 3 oil well in Texas and
locked up control of the largest pool of petroleum in America.

In 1961, Bunker Hunt—the fifth child of H. L. Hunt—discovered the Sarir oil
field in Libya. Overnight, Bunker was christened America’s richest private
individual, with a net worth estimated to be $4 billion.

Al Hill, Jr.—the grandson of H. L. Hunt, or simply “Al Three” as he’s known
in Dallas—has oil in his veins and is not afraid to put his chips on the
table. Word is he’s attempting to seize control of the Williston Basin this
winter.

In fact, the president of the privately held Hunt Oil Company has quietly
taken a seat on this little-known wildcatter’s Board of Directors now!

If history is any guide, when the Hunt clan gets behind a small oil
exploration company, you can bet it won’t be long before its stock starts
gapping higher on the charts.

I would conservatively estimate that investors who recognize this
opportunity and react could easily run $10,000 up into $400,000 on one
monster trade!

*It’s important that you seize the Bakken oil investment opportunity right
now because the price of light, sweet crude is going to $246 a barrel in
2011. *

Let’s review the facts one by one...

*Oil Fact #1:* Most knowledgeable people understand by now the magnitude of
deception from OPEC as it relates to supply and demand. If the U.S. State
Department released classified documents and the global public ever figured
out the true state of oil supplies, prices would probably go to $500 a
barrel by Christmas!

*Oil Fact #2:* Barack Hussein Obama and Ben “the bumbler” Bernanke have
declared war on the U.S. dollar. Wealthy individuals, multi-national firms
and states are alarmed. These powerful interests will drive up the price of
oil to compensate for a weaker dollar. In the final analysis, the ebb and
flow of paper money is based on a global petroleum economy.

*Oil Fact #3:* Gold and oil move in tandem with gold leading the way. Always
has been that way. Always will. This was true in 1908. And 1933. And 1945.
And 1980. And it will be true in 2011 and 2012. Governments can and
certainly do manipulate markets to control public perception, but in the end
oil prices are going to move.

*Oil Fact #4:* The U.S. government is desperately trying to maintain the
perception of the status quo with Iran. But according to my sources inside
the Pentagon, Iran is a powder keg that will explode in 2011. A
destabilizing event in the Middle East would cause oil prices to double in
days.

Mark my words: Nowhere is it written that oil prices will not run up to $246
in 2011 and hit $1,000 a barrel in 2012. We are entering a new global
paradigm as it relates to petroleum prices.

I encourage you to recognize and profit from this trend. Seize opportunities
tied to Bakken and my other energy investment recommendations and you stand
to make a fortune...

*The Next 90 Seconds Will *
*Transform Your Investment Results!*

*The Energy Strategist *has always been a rather exclusive investment
newsletter. My service is not for the masses. And frankly, that is my
continued intention.

However, I would like to take this opportunity to offer 100 investors who
are interested in dramatically improving their returns the chance to receive
a 90-day introductory subscription without any risk or obligation.

If you’re committed to making the kind of money on Wall Street that you can
cart down to the bank in bundles, I urge you to turn down a glass and take a
hard look at my premium, award-winning investment newsletter.

I want you and your family to profit from *The Energy Strategist*. I’m
excited about helping you protect and grow your nest egg, and will work day
and night to help you do just that!

*Raise Your Investment Expectations*

Forget mutual funds, hedge funds and brokerages where the only ones getting
rich are the money managers lining their pockets with YOUR MONEY!

I can help you do better. A whole lot better. Starting today!

The last time my sources spoke in hushed tones of the Hunt clan buying,
Paladin Resources handed investors a 2,386% profit in 24 months! That isn’t
walking-around money, my friend. That’s life-changing wealth!

Fortune favors the bold. When you start thinking independently and stop
being a slave to Wall Street, your investment objectives change
dramatically. What’s realistic anymore?

Maybe you’re helping pay tuition expenses for a child or grandchild. Perhaps
you want to set sail on that Alaskan cruise you’ve always dreamed of taking.
Or enjoy the security that comes with knowing you have hundreds of thousands
of dollars in savings.

Whatever your financial objectives, you need to go with a proven winner. *The
Energy Strategist* is certain to improve your investment returns and your
lifestyle.

*Finally, an Investment Newsletter *
*for Investors Just Like You*

Remember when investors could retire and live well on a modest nest egg?
Remember when taxes were only 15% a year, and when you didn’t have to worry
about losing your shirt before the closing bell?

That way of life has gradually been taken from you. But *The Energy
Strategist* is going to bring it all back. You see, my subscribers are used
to the finest things in life, investment returns included. My newsletter is
truly the millionaire’s choice.

Frankly, many of my readers are not all that interested in following the
markets on a daily basis. They’re delighted just to find a set of
investments that will let them relax, check their holdings every week and
watch their nest egg grow larger. It’s a lifestyle, and it’s focused more on
family and golf than scrolling news and real-time quotes!

I have an unrelenting commitment to delivering results one investor at a
time. My investment strategies work so that you can enjoy your life to the
fullest.
