Investing in Oil and Gas is for investors who want to directly participate in the drilling of new wells or the acquisition of producing properties. It was written by a Licensed Petroleum Engineer with over 20 years of experience in oil and gas exploration and production involving over 1,000 wells in multiple U.S. states and 15 countries with both international super major oil companies and small independent oil companies, in both vertical wells and deviated wells, and in all geologic settings. The book is divided in to three parts.

Part I covers oil and gas operations in the field including geology, petroleum, subsurface control, seismic, drilling rigs and drilling a well, logging, coring, mud logging, completions, reservoir drive mechanisms, and selling oil and natural gas.

Part II is a discussion of legal matters and financial analyses in oil and gas investments. It covers oil and gas leases in detail. It also delves in to deal structures and financial analyses including the construction of a projected cash flow. An additional chapter is dedicated to accounting and federal taxation.

Part III is an 800-point checklist for evaluating oil and gas drilling investments. The checklist includes sections for reservoirs, geology, offset well information, production histories, maps, seismic data and seismic shoots, operations planning, cost estimates, financial analyses, oil and gas leases and other legal documents, deal structures, accounting, taxation, securities, personnel, and general risks. There is a glossary and an appendix with state and federal references. There are over 70 photographs, illustrations, and diagrams.
