Oil and Gas Investments

B.I.G.'s large presence in the Texas Real Estate market as land owners has brought forth opportunities into the oil and gas industry, specifically minerals rights ownership. Through owning several hundred acres throughout the State of Texas, B.I.G. has become familiar with the concept of a land's mineral rights, and the great profitability that such a right can provide to its holder. In 2007, natural gas major Chesapeake Energy signed lease agreements with B.I.G. for the exclusive rights to explore for oil and gas on several of B.I.G.'s properties. These lease agreements inspired B.I.G. to begin acquiring working and royalty interest in proven oil and gas regions throughout Texas and Oklahoma.

B.I.G. Minerals portfolio to date includes…

Through strong partnerships with leading professionals in the oil and gas industry, B.I.G. Minerals intends to expand its current holdings and build a balanced portfolio of working, royalty, overriding royalty assets throughout the United States. Although B.I.G.'s primary focus will be on the long lived, traditional basins of the United States, we will look to explore multiple basins, in addition to multiple formations, leases, counties and states, creating diversification to mitigate risk and provide additional upside potential.

B.I.G. Minerals' acquisition program will receive assistance from many industry partners, which include experts in geology, land and mineral ownership, operations, and royalty acquisition. Additional upside of the fund includes the likely rise of the price of oil and natural gas, subsequent increase in yearly positive cash flow, and substantial return upon sale of the portfolio.
