BOOMTIMES
IN THE
BAKKEN


Strike it Rich with 2 Emerging Bakken Drillers
Now Producing Millions of Barrels of Light Sweet Crude Oil

A few years ago, North Dakota wasn't even a blip on the oil industry radar. Today, thanks to the Bakken Shale Formation, the state is producing 10% of the nation's oil and is poised to pass Alaska and California in annual domestic oil production in early 2012. But as you're about to discover, the biggest growth is on the horizon - and it's not too late to stake your claim to a fortune in oil riches...

UPDATE: My favorite Bakken oil stock is already up 25% since I first recommended it in late December... And with plenty of room to run, it could return 5x your money in the next 8-12 months!

Fellow Investor,


If you're looking for the best way to profit from the ongoing developments in the Bakken oil field, I have exciting news for you:

You can end your search here and now.

Some investors are under the impression that they "missed out" on the Bakken opportunity.

But the truth is: the Bakken oil story is still in its infancy.

And while the BIG headlines from a few years ago got lots of attention...



...the past few months have really ignited boom times in the oil-rich region of North Dakota, Montana and Saskatchewan.

And the question isn't just which companies are finding oil, but rather which companies will grow the fastest?

Today I'm going to tell you about two rapid growth companies drilling in the Bakken region and why they're the best opportunities for investors looking to own a piece of this historic oil formation.

The Bakken oil story isn't a new one. Oil companies have been drilling in the region since the early 50s. And back in the early days, growth remained relatively flat for decades on end.

The culprit? Lack of technology to get at the big oil reserves.

Old drilling methods simply couldn't get into the oil kitchens locked beneath the Bakken Shale...

That is, until very recently, when advanced drilling methods and the high price of oil finally made it profitable to extract the oil.... And production numbers and projections literally flew off the charts...


And so far, production numbers have not only been living up to expectations, but they've actually exceeded them...

The growth rate has been so exceptional the North Dakota oil industry has set production records nearly every month for the past 2 years.

"We just continue to see record wells being set and record
rigs, record barrels being produced. The numbers show
we continue to set records every month."
- Alison Ritter, North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources spokeswoman


And those back-to-back-to-back record-breaking months haven't only made plenty of oil money for investors, company executives and North Dakota landowners. The spike in production has also quickly made North Dakota the 4th largest oil producing state in the country.


As you can see North Dakota, a.k.a. "The Economic Miracle State", is now producing more than twice as much oil as it was just 3 years ago... and is now on pace to surpass both Alaska and California in daily production in early 2012.

Yes, you read correctly - production is growing THAT quickly...

And given its current rate it won't be long before Bakken oil production pushes North Dakota past Texas as the nation's number one oil producing state.

In fact, at this rate, it won't be long before the Bakken region is producing the coveted...

1 Million Barrels of Oil a Day


Back in 2000, North Dakota was producing less than 100,000 barrels of oil a day.

Today, the same oil fields are literally GUSHING black gold, producing a staggering 488,000 barrels a day.

That's a 439 percent increase in just 11 years time.

I know what you may be thinking...

When most people hear about that kind of growth, they automatically assume the biggest profits have already been made.

But in reality Bakken oil play is still in its infancy. You see, companies are just now beginning to move significant numbers of new drilling rigs into the area because the oil reserves are so huge - potentially enough to supply the U.S. with oil for ten years and possibly more

And for companies with new wells coming on line, like the 2 emerging drillers I'm about to tell you about, that means a massive and sudden increase in revenues, which will likely translate into share price appreciation.

Bottom line - Bakken oil is a multi-decade boom. And we're still in the early years.

Decades from now, when it's all said and done, we'll be referring to the Bakken as the world's largest continuous land-based accumulation of oil - and the most lucrative oil play this country has ever seen.

You should know that North Dakota already produces more oil than OPEC member Ecuador, and the most substantial growth hasn't even been realized... yet.

This year, North Dakota officials expect production to grow by 8,000 to 20,000 barrels a day each month - and that number could easily reach 600,000 barrels a day by the end of 2012 as new infrastructure gets built.

And for companies with new wells coming on line, like the 2 emerging drillers I'm about to tell you about, that means a massive and sudden increase in revenues. something that usually translates into share price appreciation.

One of the primary reasons North Dakota oil production is breaking records is that on a month-to-month basis, the region is...

Shattering New Rig and Well Count Records


And as you read this, nearly everyone with a stake in the Bakken boom is keeping a close watch on the fast-rising rig count... which is now at 204.

Why is everyone fixated on the rig count?

Simple: Oil companies are quickly closing in on the magic number of 250 rigs... the number of rigs that will allow North Dakota to maintain production for the next 20 years.

Remember how I stated that Bakken oil production is just in its infancy? Seasoned oil executives know this - otherwise they wouldn't be positioning expensive equipment in the Bakken for the next two decades.

And all these new rigs are already paying off today. They've allowed oil companies to spud 1,000 new wells in the past year alone, bringing the total number of producing wells up to 6,202.

If you figure an oil company spends about $5 million to drill a well...

And a well can produce up to 500,000 barrels of oil a year....

At today's prices, that's $50 million worth of oil on a $5 million investment.

It's no wonder oil companies are drilling as quickly as possible to recover...

Enough Light Sweet Crude
for the Next 100 Years


In 2008, the USGS estimated there was between 3 and 4.3 billion barrels of recoverable oil in the Bakken. But in light of new findings, the agency is now planning a revised "unscheduled" assessment in 2012 that should substantially increase their estimates.

It's well known that current USGS estimates are extremely conservative... they've been raising their estimates for years now.

On the other end of the spectrum, independent analysis from the RAND Corporation believes there to be 100s of billions of barrels of recoverable oil in the Bakken.

And they're not alone - there is considerable evidence that supports much higher numbers than the USGS estimates would have you believe.


If low estimates of recoverable oil are accurate, there's enough oil in the Bakken to supply America's energy needs for 10 years - and if high estimates are correct - there's enough to last us 50 to 100 years!

The truth is, even if only ten percent of the Bakken's oil reserves are recoverable, they would double our existing domestic oil reserves.

And one thing's for sure: the companies that already have a foothold in the Bakken will be making money for their investors for years to come.

Because the oil is there and the small oil drillers who snapped up drilling rights in the early days are just now beginning to enjoy...

"Gushers" of Oil and Profits


Like that just-emerging, over-achieving oil producer I've been telling you about....

The company stakes claim to 31,000 acres in the core area of the Bakken and another 43,000 acres in a nearby and equally resource-rich zone in the eastern Montana portion of the Bakken.

That's nearly 75,000 acres of prime Bakken oil fields, but what truly differentiates this company's acreage is the price... and I'll get to that in just a moment.

Because what makes this opportunity so exciting is that the company has only entered production in the past year.

In that time, year-over-year revenues were up 3,347 percent with third quarter revenue alone up 454 percent!

And that's a direct result of the company exceeding their production forecasts. Q3 2011 production was 450 Boe/d and by December 8th it had already increased to 800 Boe/d.

And as you can see from this chart, it's just the start of the growth anticipated in the year ahead.

In fact, if the company's production stays on pace, next quarter's revenues will double - and I don't have to tell you what that will do to share price...

You might also like to know that this driller has $90 million in cash and zero debt - yet its stock is trading for 20 percent less than it was this time last year.

And according to a company representative, they're currently seeking a venture capital partner to ramp up drilling efforts and take the company to a $1 billion market cap before the end of 2012.

There's no doubt in my mind this stock has the potential to grow your small investment into a fortune in oil riches.

It might seem hard to believe, but this investment opportunity actually gets even more attractive when you consider StatOil's recent takeover of Brigham Exploration.

If you don't remember the acquisition, I'll remind you that StatOil paid $11,500 per acre in the Bakken.

Which means the market is valuing my new favorite oil company at just $1,860 an acre, or 1/6 the value of Brigham!

Granted, right now they're not yet the producer that Brigham is, but there's clearly a tremendous amount of upside potential as production ramps up in the coming months.

In fact, I think this opportunity is capable of returning 5 times your initial investment... in the next 12 months -- and ultimately a lot more.

I realize it's not every day you have the chance to get in on the ground floor of an opportunity like this...

Which is why I feel obligated to stress the importance of timing on this company's shares.

Because they just recently began generating cash and have already seen production revenue numbers spike, it won't take long before institutional investors and the mainstream media catch on.

Another strong possibility is a takeover, which in the case of the Brigham buyout, resulted in triple digit profits for early investors.

Once either of these scenarios unfolds, this stock will be out of my buy range - and I suspect yours as well.

Before I reveal the details on this driller, I want you to consider the old-fashioned oil boom that the Bakken's success is already bringing to the North Dakota plains:

  • Unemployment is at just 3.6 percent... a job at McDonald's pays $15/hour and anyone with a CDL license can land a 6-figure job with a moment's notice

  • North Dakota is one of the few states with a budget surplus instead of a deficit

  • Every apartment is rented - and hotels in the area are booked solid for the next 3 years - so oil companies are setting up "man-camps" to house their workers


And according to Kathy Stormbeck of the North Dakota State Tax Dept, "every $1 increase or decrease in the price of oil impacts gross state revenue by $9.3 million a year."

Short of packing your bags and moving to the "Economic Miracle State" of North Dakota, there's no better way to get your share of the Bakken's fortunes than with a potentially life-changing investment, which I'm about to tell you about.

How You Can Start Profiting From My Favorite Drillers Today

Right now you can buy shares in the company I've been telling you about for under $6 - making for a very easy entry and highly attractive risk-reward profile for anyone looking to make elephant size returns on their investment.

You'll find out the rest of the investment information, charts and analysis and the opportunity it offers for outsize returns in my just completed research report, Bakken Profits: 3 Top Oil & Gas Stocks From the Fastest Growing Oil Region in the U.S.

The Special Report will tell you all you need to know about this dynamic, North American company and how you can load up on shares before Wall Street learns about the company's potential.

There's Another Bakken Producer I'm Recommending

In my new report, Bakken Profits: 3 Top Oil & Gas Stocks From the Fastest Growing Oil Region in the U.S. I'll also give you the complete research and analysis on an equally promising North American oil producer with 100,000 net acres in the Bakken, Eagle Ford and Austin Chalk. (That includes 45,000 acres in the Bakken.)

This North American triple play is far more advanced in their life cycle... They netted $9.2 million in the third quarter alone... and produced 10 times more oil than the oil company you've been hearing about...

So while there might not be as much upside potential, they are already producing 5,545 boe/d.

And with 13 to 15 new wells coming online since their last quarterly report, I expect big things from this undervalued producer in 2012. For a number of reasons, which I'll get to in the report, I'm looking for this company to continue to grow and follow in the footsteps of similar Bakken success stories like Kodiak Oil and Gas, Northern Oil and Brigham Exploration.

But like I said, you'll also get everything you need to get started with this investment in the special report.
