WHY WHEELER RESOURCE RECOVERY?

We are an 86-year-old company with a proven track record of expertise and success. Our founder has put over 29,000,000 barrels of oil in the tank.

WHAT IS SECONDARY OIL RECOVERY?

The bulk of the oil in a field is extracted in the second phase of development at a lower cost and at a much lower risk than primary recovery. We recover up to 50% of the original oil, while sustaining and increasing production by injecting water.

HOW DO YOU EVALUATE AN OIL & GAS PROJECT?

When evaluating an oil & gas project, you’ll want to look at the company’s track record, figure out whether the company has an actual stake in the project, and calculate your return on investment (ROI). Luckily, Wheeler has a proven track record of success with secondary oil recovery and we invest our own money into every project, only making money when our investors do too. Through secondary oil recovery, our projects are also cost efficient, come with unique tax benefits, and have a much lower breakeven price than primary oil recovery.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO INVEST?

We have established a field development project where a non-industry investor can participate in the same capacity as an industry insider. As such, we are looking for accredited investors, regardless of industry knowledge, who want to be a part of a low-risk, high-reward investment. We seek out investors that want to partner with us to successfully execute a development project, all while not exposing the investor to the full cost of the cost of the project.

HOW DO I MAKE MONEY INVESTING?

Where other companies in the space make money by raising money, we make money by successfully completing projects. We have a vested interest with our investors, meaning we only make money when you make money.

WHAT ARE MY TAX BENEFITS FOR INVESTING?

Oil investing tax breaks are significant. The Federal Tax Code Section 263 and Section 179 allows our investors to deduct 90% of total invested funds, the year deployed, against all other taxable income, active, passive or portfolio. It is important to note that these are not deductions of a loss subject to the $3,000.00 annual limit, but are treated by the Tax Code as the deduction of an expense and can be taken in full the year incurred regardless of any other loss/gain deduction for the year. Additionally, the Tax Code allows all oil revenue from your oil well to be 15% tax free under the Federal Depletion Allowance. For any questions, contact us here.

2025 Outlook: Oil and Gas Industry - Wheeler Resource Recovery

If you’ve been thinking about investing in oil and gas, 2025 is shaping up to be a golden opportunity. With a new administration, strong market conditions, and major tax benefits still in place, investors have a chance to capitalize on what could be a very profitable year. Let’s break down why now is the time to act.

New Administration, New Policies—But Oil & Gas Remains Strong

Whenever a new administration comes in, there’s always uncertainty about what changes might come for energy policy. But here’s what we do know: U.S. policymakers continue to support domestic production, and Texas remains a top destination for investment-friendly regulations.

One of the biggest policy shifts to watch is the creation of the National Energy Dominance Council, which aims to cut red tape and boost U.S. energy output. That means fewer barriers for companies like Wheeler Resource Recovery and more opportunities for private investors to benefit from domestic production.

Oil Prices Are Stable—And That’s Great for Investors

Unlike the rollercoaster years we’ve seen in the past, 2025 is kicking off with some of the most stable oil prices in decades. In 2024, Brent crude oil prices stayed between $74 and $90 per barrel, and experts predict similar levels for 2025. This kind of price stability is rare and makes for a solid investment environment.

Natural gas prices are rising, and with OPEC keeping production steady, prices are expected to remain strong. That means steady returns for investors looking to get in now.

New Tech Is Making Oil & Gas Even More Profitable

The oil and gas industry isn’t sitting still—it’s evolving. New advancements in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) are making oil production more efficient while also addressing environmental concerns. That’s a win-win for companies and investors alike.

Projects like Quest in Canada and Northern Lights in Norway are proving that these technologies can reduce emissions while maintaining profitability. As the industry embraces these innovations, long-term investment potential only gets stronger.

Tax Breaks Are Still Huge for Investors

One of the biggest reasons oil and gas investing is so attractive? The tax benefits. Here are just a few you’ll want to take advantage of in 2025:

100% deduction for Intangible Drilling Costs (IDCs) – These cover things like labor, fuel, and chemicals and usually make up 70-85% of the cost of a well. That’s an instant tax write-off.
Tangible Drilling Costs (TDCs) are depreciated over seven years, giving you long-term tax relief.
Depletion allowance shelters up to 15% of a well’s annual production from taxes, reducing your taxable income.
Lease operating expenses are fully deductible in the year they’re incurred.

For accredited investors, these tax breaks can make a huge difference when it comes to lowering taxable income and boosting overall returns.

Why Now? Timing Is Everything

Everything is lining up to make 2025 a prime year for oil and gas investment:

Strong demand: Oil and gas consumption continues to grow, and EV sales have leveled off, meaning fossil fuels are still a critical part of the global energy mix.
Private operators are thriving: Smaller, independent oil companies are seizing high-margin opportunities that major corporations often overlook.
Market stability: With oil prices holding steady and OPEC maintaining production levels, investors can expect reliable returns.
Tax incentives remain strong: Investing this year ensures you can still take advantage of existing tax benefits before any potential policy shifts.

Final Thoughts: Don’t Wait Too Long

The oil and gas industry is in a sweet spot right now. Between strong prices, stable demand, new tech, and unbeatable tax advantages, 2025 is shaping up to be a great year for investors.
