About Aztec Oil & Gas, Inc.
Aztec
is an experienced oil and gas exploration, development and
production company focusing on Texas, plus other areas of the
U.S. Its interests are
highly diversified between development drilling and exploration
drilling; however, when it offers drilling/production partnerships,
Aztec focuses primarily on Texas shallow, lower risk, development
and step out oil wells. When offered, those programs/partnerships
are placed, with accredited investor partners, only through FINRA
registered Broker Dealers, and Registered Investment Advisors; and,
are focused primarily on oil, with natural gas normally being the
secondary target of production.
Aztec
has been in the oil/gas business since 2004, and entered the
sponsored drilling program industry in 2006. Over the next two and one half
years, beginning in late 2006, Aztec intentionally restricted
itself to only three small, very limited Appalachian, natural gas
drilling partnerships. Such was done in order to study and become
fully familiar with the nuances of the sponsored drilling program
industry before expanding to the Company's full
capabilities. In the
summer of 2008, Aztec fortuitously and publicly announced it was
discontinuing any natural gas drilling in Appalachia, and was ready
to substantially expand its sponsored drilling program activities,
along with its other activities, primarily for oil in
Texas.
As to only its sponsored drilling partnerships, when offered; since
2008, Aztec has, indeed, focused almost all of those partnerships
on oil wells in Texas.
In addition to its early, initial three small Appalachian natural
gas drilling partnerships mentioned above; Aztec has,
intermittently, sponsored and closed a significant number of other
drilling/production partnerships (all of the latter, as stated,
focused primarily on drilling for oil in Texas). Aztec Energy LLC, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Aztec Oil & Gas Inc., is the Managing General
Partner of all Aztec drilling partnerships; and another
wholly-owned Aztec Oil & Gas Inc. subsidiary, Aztec Drilling
& Operating, LLC, is the drilling contractor and contractual
well operator for such partnerships. Through its own participation,
contributions and coverage, Aztec owns a 30% interest in all of its
drilling/production partnerships. In general clarification of its
activities, in addition to its own direct corporate participations
in industry partner wells, Aztec sometimes sponsors lower risk,
development drilling/rework/production programs which include
significant tax benefits; all of which are offered only through
FINRA Registered Broker Dealers and Registered Investment Advisors
to Accredited Investors. Aztec’s sponsored
drilling/rework/production programs, when offered, focus primarily
on shallow oil/gas drilling, are considered unique, and also
incorporate a sophisticated exit strategy for investors.
