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
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 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.
