U.S. Hits New Oil Gusher

29 days...

That's how long it took a barren stretch of land from Montana through North Dakota, known as the "Bakken," to catapult from a forgotten region...to America's hope for energy independence.

The incredible story behind the largest oil find in US history has plastered itself across every major financial outlet. It's been featured everywhere from CNBC and Fox News to The Wall Street Journal.

Every one of them is getting excited for the same reason we are...there's a massive deposit right under the frozen soil -- so large -- it could meet America's oil demand for the next four decades.

But here's what they don't tell you...

Thanks to certain technological advancements (and three very special companies), these reserves just created a new generation of wealth for savvy American investors.

With the rapid return coming from this unique group of companies, the media's already dubbed early investors the "Montana Millionaires."

It's easy to see why. In just the past 11 days -- since the story started to take-off -- each of these outfits gained an average of 21.3%.

And they're just getting started. As you'll see in just a minute, by the time all this is said and done, Montana Millionaires could collect as much as 1,000% in profits.

Below, I've attached my full report, detailing the entire situation and exactly how you can join the Montana Millionaires... before it's too late.

The best part is - you don't have to be a Montana resident to take part.

As I write this, oil is closing at roughly $113 a barrel.

But imagine being able to extract it... for just $16.

The price of gas you'd pay at the pump would--quite literally--drop in half.

Well, in Richland County, Montana - about 470 miles outside the state capitol of Helena - America's greatest wealth boom is fast - and secretly - underway.

To get right to the point...

It's the largest domestic oil discovery since Alaska's Prudhoe Bay and has the potential to eliminate all American dependence on foreign oil.

The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 503 billion barrels. Even if just 10% of the oil is recoverable... at $107 a barrel, Montana is looking at a resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion.

"When I first briefed legislators on this, you could practically see their jaws hit the floor. They had no idea." says Terry Johnson, the Montana Legislature's financial analyst.

"This sizeable find is now the highest-producing onshore oil field found in the past 56 years," reports The Pittsburgh Post Gazette.

It's a formation known as the Williston Basin, but is more commonly referred to as the "Bakken." And it stretches from Northern Montana, through North Dakota and into Canada.

For years, U.S. oil exploration has been considered a dead end. Even the "Big Oil" companies gave up searching for major oil wells decades ago. However, a recent technological breakthrough has opened up the Bakken's massive reserves... and we now have access of up to 500 billion barrels.

And because this is light, sweet oil, those billions of barrels will cost Americans just $16 PER BARREL!

 

That's enough crude to fully fuel the American economy for 41 years straight.

To America, this discovery couldn't have come at a better time. You see, when all the wells are finally drilled and pumping, we won't have to import any foreign oil from the Middle East. Not a single drop!

For investors like you and me, it offers a "once-in-a-lifetime" chance to profit on ever-rising demand for oil. And we can do it by getting in on the groundfloor of the next great oil boom...

Even the US Government has confirmed the Bakken as a huge oil formation. The government's own Energy Information Administration (EIA) issued this press release:

"...with new drilling and completion technology taken into account, the resource base for the entire formation is potentially much larger. A study provides estimates ranging up to 503 billion barrels of potential resources in place."

Oil in the Bakken isn't gritty, dirty and expensive like the Alberta oil sands.

We're talking light, sweet crude oil - the least expensive and easiest to refine oil out there.

And here's the kicker...

 

Montana lawmakers recently passed a bill that creates an 18-month tax holiday for oil wells drilled and completed in this area.

This legislation has caused a massive increase in exploration and has blown the top off this hidden ocean of oil.

Since this bill was passed, a small group of investors have been taking advantage of this untapped resource and are making thousands of dollars each month.

The good news is that you don't have to drive up to Montana to get your piece of the pie.

In fact, I have uncovered three companies that are drilling in the Bakken right now and are seeing returns and revenues second to none...

"It's a good, old fashioned oil boom," says Dr. Paul Polzin, a University of Montana economist.

One company has been there since the beginning of the Bakken boom... and is already selling its oil to the market. And the best part about it - this company is sharing its Bakken profits with everyday investors.

You see, for the past seven years, this company has distributed its net profits in the form of MONTHLY cash payments. They have sent their shareholders profit-sharing checks for 84 months in a row... and the check amounts are on the rise.

Straight from the company's annual report:

That's how huge and insanely profitable the Bakken play is becoming.

The other 2 Bakken companies I've uncovered are true "wildcatter" plays... with the potential to return investors 100-to-1 on their money. They currently trade for $7 and $5 a share, respectively.

Amazingly, this monumental oil discovery - and these 3 companies - have remained a secret.

Before I explain this opportunity in more detail, let me be perfectly clear - I have never come across a more ideal profit scenario.

In this letter, I'm going to tell you everything that I've learned about the Bakken discovery, why it is still a secret, who's involved, and - more importantly - how to profit from it. Especially before the rest of the investment community finds out.

Mark my words, an opportunity like this only comes around once every so often and I can GUARANTEE that this will not remain a secret for much longer.

In fact, some of the local media are beginning to report on it...

"People in the region 'are just starting to see the potential' in this new oil play" - Grand Forks Herald, Nov. 4, 2007

"The huge potential of the Bakken play has industry and government officials gushing with superlatives." -CanWest News Service, Dec. 10, 2007

"Montanan residents with oil royalties have, literally, been made millionaires." -Missoulian.com, Dec. 2, 2007

As we all know - the people who make the most money are the people who get in first.

And for the shareholders of oil companies that make huge, new discoveries, the potential payoff is mind-blowing.

There are several companies that have seen similar situations to the Bakken - of course on a far smaller scale - and have rallied hundreds of percent in just a few months. If these companies can see their stock prices increase by 300%, 400% or even 500% with oil discoveries of 1 or 2 billion barrels... just imagine what a discovery of up to 500 billion barrel of oil would do to a stock's price!

Here are a few examples...

Bankers Petroleum is a company based in the Patos-Marinz Oil Field in Albania. Upon discovery of its 1.96 billion barrels (1/250th of the potential of the Bakken Basin) the company's stock price increased 468% in just 7 months!

Let me fill you in on the details...

It was a true "rags to riches" story.

Then there's Petrominerals, a company whose primary drilling area is in the Llanos Basin in Colombia, South America. When uncovering a 1 billion barrel potential (1/500th of the potential of the Bakken Basin), this best stock jumped 775% in just 10 months!

Lastly, there's the example of BPZ Resources, a Peruvian company that has concentrated on two main oil fields: The Corvina and Albacora Formations. Recently, it was reported that the Corvina Field holds reserves of 60 million barrels and that the Albacora field hold reserve of roughly 500 million barrels (1/1000th of the Bakken Basin Potential) and the stock price rocketed 449% in just 8 months!

As you can see from the charts above - the potential is huge when a company makes a new discovery. And with the Bakken being exponentially larger than any oil field listed above, there is no telling how high the stock prices of the companies that I have outlined below will go - 400%... 700%... 2000%... maybe much, much higher.

Keep reading and you will soon find out the secret way to become a Montana Millionaire and get in on the ground floor of this unprecedented oil discovery called the Bakken Basin...

How a starving geologist found the largest oil field in modern day history

A few years ago, a Billings petroleum geologist by the name of Dick Findley was working out of his basement - searching for oil in an area that had been barren for over 20 years. Things were rough and he was struggling to get by.

He even flirted with the idea of getting a second job as a restaurant cook. On a diet of nothing but Ramen noodles and hard-boiled eggs - how could you blame the guy?

But one thing kept Dick going - an unprecedented suspicion that this area, known as the Bakken Basin, contained more oil than Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran combined.

The Bakken Basin, located in Montana, North Dakota and Saskatchewan - was at one point coined "one of the largest disappointments in the oil industry."

During this period, technology lacked the efficiency to make drilling worthwhile. And when oil hit all time lows in the late 90's - the Bakken Basin was basically abandoned.

But Findley kept digging around.

And through sheer luck, he and his partner stumbled upon a porous layer of dolomite, 9000 feet below the ground of a ranch just outside Sidney, Montana.

This stumble turned out to be the largest on-shore oil discovery in decades.

Little did he know, but Findley discovered enough oil to fuel the U.S. for 41 years.

And the oil field he found - and the technology that he helped develop to extract the oil - has recently made millionaires out of ordinary Montanans...

"It was a light bulb kind of thought - When I discovered that the oil was in the middle shale and it continued for 50 miles, I called my partner and I said, 'I think you'd better sit down...we found a giant oil field," says Findley of his initial discovery.

Findley soon took his discovery to energy giant Haliburton, which backed him financially and provided the support to help him develop the necessary drilling technology to efficiently take advantage of this huge oil discovery...

The Technology That Makes It All Possible

It's true that the oil industry has known about the Bakken Basin for over 20 years - but the problem always was that no one knew how to get at the oil. The technology just wasn't there. Until now...

But even today, the exact science behind getting the Bakken oil is still somewhat of a secret.

I mean, think about it for a minute...

Imagine you found a massive, but trapped gold mine in your neighborhood. Now imagine you created a technology to mine it - a technology unique to this specific gold mine.

Would you tell anyone how to do it? Would you reveal your secret?

No, of course not. You would want to make as much money as possible, before everybody else found out about it.

Well that's exactly what's going on with the Bakken Basin.

"It's too early in the play to be sharing information," says Bill Walker, a Denver-based geologist with Headington Co.

Bill says his company has recently developed the technology to drill the Bakken down effectively - and it's one of the company's closest guarded secrets.

Even though the technology I'm talking about is rather well known, actually using it successfully is the big secret.

The technology is called Horizontal Directional Drilling or H.D.D., and only a few companies have mastered the process.

How Does Horizontal Directional Drilling Work?

Getting oil out of the Bakken is not a matter of poking a hole in the ground until you hit a soft spot full of oil - which is the old vertical drilling technique.

The Bakken is woven with rocks, and that rock-layer is wide but very thin. Thin enough that vertical drilling is horribly unsuccessful.

It was Findley's idea to drill a well sideways - a technique called "horizontal directional drilling," in which wildcatters drill down to the oil and then kick out their well thousands of feet to the left or right.

Sort of like an underground sprinkler. Here is what it looks like:

But horizontal drilling alone isn't enough to get the oil out of the ground.

Findley had to work with Haliburton engineers to figure out a way to both drill sideways and fracture the rock to release the oil.

Both horizontal drilling and fracturing had been done before, but never together. This was Findley's revolutionary idea.

These combined technologies made drilling the Bakken Basin possible and extremely profitable.

In fact, the technique is so efficient that companies - like the ones I will tell you about below - are extracting oil from the Bakken at an amazing cost of just $16 a barrel!

And with oil now over a $100 a barrel - the companies below are making a killing - and you can too if you get in quickly enough...

The Best Way to Get in on the Groundfloor of One of the Largest American Oil Booms in History

I've spent the past 6 months researching every possible way of making money with this monumental oil discovery.

I've found a total of THREE ways.

Each opportunity has a unique advantage. And whether you're an income investor or a best stock investor, there is a way for you to get in on the Bakken boom, before the herd does...

Montana Millionaire Opportunity #1

The first opportunity is an explosive growth stock that was recently upgraded to the AMEX exchange in February 2007.

Since being upgraded this stock has gone from $3 to $10 - that is a 233% gain in just over one year.

And that is just the beginning...

The main catalyst for company's stock price spike is an increase in its acerage position in the Bakken Basin to 50,000 gross / 16,000 net acres. This additional acquisition increases its total Bakken position to about 105,000 gross / 52,000 net acres. That's huge.

They are gobbling up land in this precious region with fervor second to none.

In the past 12 months, insiders of the company have purchased more than 120,000 shares. They know that the Bakken play is going to be a fortune-maker.

With a deep foothold in the Bakken and the expansion of wells throughout the region - there is no telling how high this stock could go. Companies in similar situations have seen their stock rise to over $200 a share. Right now you can buy it for $7 a share.

But let me be very clear: we are talking about the potential of several thousand percent gains. This company trades at a market cap of just $196 million. So it's very small. When this company starts pumping oil out of the Bakken, its market cap could balloon to $2 billion! Right now the company stock is under the radar. But now that the U.S. Geological Survey has officially launched its Bakken report, this company could jump as much as 400% in just couple of days...

By combining experienced management, low overhead and aggressive acreage acquisition, this company is one of the nation's fastest growing small-cap gas and oil exploration and production companies.

"We are excited to announce the expansion of our [Bakken] acreage position," said the Chief Executive Officer. "Our position in this productive resource play is well situated among acreage held by leading Bakken exploration companies. Assuming full development of our [Bakken] leasehold on 640-acre drilling units, [our] acreage would result in approximately twenty-five net wells."

With the newly acquired acreage, this company is poised for profit over the next couple months, which means higher stock price and more cash in your pocket...

Montana Millionaire Opportunity #2

The second Montana Millionaire opportunity is an aggressive income play. This company has been involved in the Bakken for years and has significant acerage in the region.

This company is a high-yielding equity investment in the oil and natural gas business. They have built a balanced and diversified portfolio of producing properties across the United States with a focus on large resource plays, like the Bakken.

They have a strict discipline of paying a significant portion of their cash flow to investors each month. And with a payout ratio of 190% and a dividend yield over 11%, it's hard to argue otherwise.

But here's the rub...

This company is also a significant growth opportunity. Compared to the industry this company is trading at a heavy discount.

They have a forward P/E ratio of 14 compared to an industry average of 18.3 and a price to sales ratio of 5.76 compared to 11.04 for the industry.

Based on conservative valuation models, we believe this stock has the potential to double in the next 12 to 24 months.

That's on top of the cash payments it pays out every single month.

Montana Millionaire Opportunity #3

The third opportunity to take advantage of the next great American oil boom is through an independent exploration, development and production company that utilizes a revolutionary 3-D seismic imaging technology to systematically explore and develop domestic oil and gas reserve.

The use of this 3-D seismic technology reduces drilling risk and compounds their ability to grow reserves and production volumes.

Just recently this company announced three monumental Bakken discoveries and a plan for a significant acquisition of acreage in the Bakken Basin to the tune of 67,500 acres - bringing the company's total Bakken acreage to 219,000.

And their oil revenues have been booming. Take a look:

As a result, their profits are expected to grow at a huge rate.

According to ratings company Morningstar, the company's EPS growth is expected to grow a whopping 172% from its 2007 earnings.

Take a look:

This company, like the first one, is a huge growth play. It is currently trading at a huge discount with a price to sales ratio of 2.35 compared to an industry average of 11.04.

As the true potential of the Bakken is revealed by the U.S. Geological Survey - this company is sure to trade at a fair valuation - which comes to a 477% gain.

Not to mention that over the last 7 months there have been nothing but purchases with insiders...

This company is setting up for major success and the insiders know it - this best stock to buy is going nowhere but up over the next couple years...

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to get in at the beginning of an oil boom - for next to nothing...

Now listen closely, I've put together an exclusive report that details the 3 companies currently in the Bakken ready to get America off of Mideast oil.

I call the report The Bakken Billions: The Next Big Oil Rush.

Below I will show you how to obtain your free report and become a Montana Millionaire yourself.

But first...

Let Me Introduce Myself and My Research Team...

My name is Brian Hicks. I'm the president of the investment research company Angel Publishing. I've spent my entire investment career uncovering the market's best moneymaking trends and developing friendships and contacts with some of the brightest financial minds around the world.

I literally travel the world looking for the best investment opportunities.

 

I've taken research trips to remote, historic oil boomtowns like Desdemona, Texas, the Powder River Basin in Wyoming and Kiev, Ukraine. We've been to the heart of the oil sands industry, Fort McMurray in Alberta, Canada. And I've taken helicopter flights over the Barnett Shale, to see first-hand the natural gas boom.

My investment insights and ideas have landed me frequent spots on financial shows like CNBC, Bloomberg, Fox, CNN and Fox Business.

Recently, I co-authored a book with Chris Nelder, an energy expert who has designed and built dozens of solar energy projects. This is a guy who understands the energy market inside and out . . . from energy's worst problems to its brightest solutions.

Together, we wrote Profit from the Peak: The End of Oil and the Greatest Investment Event of the 21st Century.

And that's why I'm writing to you today. The energy crisis in the 21st Century is, without a doubt, one of those investments where you can achieve a lifetime of wealth. . . a sector that could make you a legendary fortune.

When you sign up for The $20 Trillion Report, you'll immediately get access to The Bakken Billions: The Next Big Oil Rush.

But that's not all you'll get . . .

I have 4 more money-making reports to give you.

Here's what I suggest...

Test-drive The $20 Trillion Report

There's a super-easy, no-risk way to receive everything I've mentioned in this letter, including...

 

Energy Investment Report #1: The Bakken Billions: The Next Big Oil Rush.

The Bakken Basin is home to an estimated 503 billion barrels of oil.

Right now, 3 companies are there producing oil. All 3 have the potential to be huge moneymakers for investors.

Energy Investment Report #2: Canada's First Underground Refinery: How to get Access to 31.63 Barrels of Oil Resource for just $47.

With oil trading over $100, every 100 shares you buy gives you access to $316,300 of oil resource.

So far, investors who own this stock have earned over 225% in 2007 alone!

 

Energy Investment Report #3: The Mother Lode Up North (over 20 companies in the region)

We'll tell you about an ETF dedicated to the Canadian oil sands which provides stellar growth in addition to paying a nice, steady dividend.

This is our favorite fund for the future. We consider it a no-brainer, as Canada has become America's #1 oil lifeline. The Canadian oil sands are also one of the few places in the world that'll experience significant production growth.

Energy Investment Report #4: Our Favorite Oil Stock Under $5.

I'll reveal our favorite oil stock under $5 a share . . . a stock we think has the potential to hit $26 in the next three years. It's a Texas oil and gas company that's doing something unique - reviving old oil fields and squeezing out what's been left behind. For instance, did you know that for every barrel of oil that was pumped out of the ground in America, two barrels were left behind?

Well, this company is going after it using EOR, enhance oil recovery.

 

Energy Investment Report #5: The Energy Trade of 2008.

It's a stock in which one American billionaire recently bought 395,000 shares. The company is an "alternative energy" company . . . and this billionaire bought those shares for $13.95 apiece on the open market. Not exactly chump change.
He made this same move last summer, but with a different top stocks for 2010. And it rallied 100%.

That's why we're calling this "The Energy Trade of 2008." It currently trades for around $13 . . . but we think it'll reach $30 in the next couple of months.
And lastly, you'll receive my book, Profit from the Peak, absolutely free of charge.

The Energy Trade of 2008

Thanks to my connections and contacts in the global energy industry, I have uncovered a little-known way you can earn more profits from the energy bull market...

I'm calling it "The Energy Trade of 2008."

Simply put, some of America's richest investors are placing huge bets on energy, and especially "alternative" energy.

There's an alternative energy stock that currently trades for around $13 a share. Its market cap is $524 million... and it does $114 million in annual revenue. So as you can see, it's a real company with real revenues.

But more importantly, a billionaire recently bought 395,000 shares of it. He bought those shares for $13.95 apiece on the open market. So he must think - or even know - that the stock is going a lot higher.

He bought another energy stock last summer and it rallied 100%.

We think the stock he's buying now is an easy double in 2008. And you can get your hands on it immediately when you become a member of The $20 Trillion Report.

How to Get $20 Trillion for Just $99
