    INTRODUCTION

  • 8/3/2019 Venture Oil Brochure 2

    5/20

    At V.O.I.L., we believe purchasing oil in

    the ground at a low wholesale price, then

    contracting to provide the service to extract

    and sell it, represents a unique investment

    opportunity.

    We believe this method of investment oers

    our investors the opportunity to maximise the

    benets of the current and future Oklahoma

    Sweet Oil market prices, allowing them to

    hedge against rising energy costs and/or start

    developing or add to their own personal pension

    fund.

    THE INVESTORS CHOICE

    Investors are given the opportunity to purchase

    an exact number of barrels of oil (in allocationsof 250 barrels) from the reserves of established

    oil wells. When the investment is made, the

    investor receives an allocation of shares in

    V.O.I.L. comparable to the level of investment

    made.

    V.O.I.L. further protects the interest of

    investors as V.O.I.L. has its interest registered

    on title and an Ownership Certicate is issuedidentifying the specic investment made, under

    the forward purchase contract.

    Investment in Venture Oil Investments Limited,

    starts at a minimum purchase of 250 barrels

    of oil in the ground at a cost of $12,000 USD

    with further increments of 250 barrels, with no

    maximum restrictions. Although the purchase

    of the oil in the ground conveys title to that oil,

    the extraction and sale of the oil is a contracted

    arrangement between V.O.I.L. and its Operator

    Partners.

    Venture International Holdings Limited is an

    International specialist consultative company

    oering services to oshore corporate and

    individual investors.

    Venture International also specialise in providing

    unique investment opportunities for our clients,

    this investment is one such example.

    Venture International Holdings Limited will

    provide full management services to Venture Oil

    Investments Limited which is a new company

    established for this bespoke investment.

    WHAT WE OFFER

    Venture Oil Investments Limited (V.O.I.L.)

    has secured a forward purchase option onan exact quantity of crude oil in the ground

    in Oklahoma USA at a low xed price of

    $48.00 USD per barrel, the returns of

    which are prepaid over a xed term of 7

    years (84 months).

    The contracted operator, with whom

    V.O.I.L. engages, guarantees the 1/84th of

    the oil purchased shall be extracted eachmonth, and sold to the renery on behalf of

    V.O.I.L. whom then receives payment at the

    current crude oil price per barrel on behalf

    of the investor.

    Each investor is issued with a quarterly

    production payment from the proceeds of

    that sale. (The oil is sold according to the

    average price of Oklahoma Sweet for the

    specic month).

    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

  • 8/3/2019 Venture Oil Brochure 2

    6/20

    The Oklahoma oil energy industry contributes

    23 billion to Oklahomas gross domestic

    product and employs over 60,000 people.

    In 2004, Oklahoma had 83,750 commercial

    oil wells and as many as 750,000 total wells

    producing 178 thousand barrels of crude oil

    per day. Ten percent of the USAs natural gas

    supply is held in Oklahoma, with 1.662 trillion

    cubic feet (47.1 km3).

    Within the US there are thousands of capped

    oil wells that are now being acquired by smaller

    independent Operators with a view to extracting

    the unrened reserves. It is these operators

    with whom Venture Oil Investments Limited

    contract to provide this investment. These

    Operators are seeking capital from investors

    which will allow them to;

    Uncap and clean existing wells

    Drill further into existing wells

    Install ow lines and storage tanks

    Install pumping equipment

    Establish and maintain ow of oil

    As we purchase the oil in the ground on a forward

    purchase contract which is xed we are able to

    remove all risk associated with the exploration,

    extraction, transportation and rening of

    the oil. We also carry no responsibility in the

    purchase or maintenance of any equipment or

    moveable structures.

    SUMMARY OF INVESTMENT

  • 8/3/2019 Venture Oil Brochure 2

    8/20

    FINANCIALS

    There are varying factors that aect the

    returns from oil well revenues. However

    the main two are;

    (1) Production Levels

    Demand as ever will determine the production

    level of any commodity, oil is no exception. As

    economies start to improve, the need for oil as a

    major resource increases. Who says so every

    economic analyst thats who and they are right.

    Consider the US as an example, the largest user

    of oil in the world and demand is expected to

    increase annually by 2% for the next 10 years.

    The US currently imports 40% of its oil usage,

    so home rened oil is now becoming a priority

    to the large and small operators. Add to theabove the booming economies of India, China,

    and other areas of South East Asia and the

    demand for oil will only increase.

    (2) Price

    In simple terms the higher the price the better

    for oil well investors. In July 2008 prices were

    $147 USD per barrel. Prices today remain

    stable around the $80 to $90 USD range withmany experts predicting the oil prices will rise

    and exceed the previous highs of 2008 during

    2011. The International Energy Agency (IEA)

    stated that Global oil product demand for 2010

    and 2011 is revised up by an average of 320

    kb/d on higher-than-expected submissions,

    reecting buoyant global economic growth and

    cold northern hemisphere weather. Global oil

    demand, assessed at 87.7 mb/d in 2010 (+2.7

    mb/d year-on-year), rises by 1.4 mb/d to 89.1

    mb/d in 2011..

    SUMMARY OF INVESTMENT

  • 8/3/2019 Venture Oil Brochure 2

    9/20

    THE SYNDICATION OPTION

    Syndication is an attractive investment concept

    that provides a number of signicant advantages

    Being able to invest in opportunities the

    investor may not otherwise be able to

    aord.

    Allowing a group of investors to pool

    their funds together to acquire a quality

    investment that they would not

    normally have access to

    Enabling investors to spread their

    investment funds into several

    dierent sectors with dierent levels

    of investment risk and returns.

    Sharing the investment risk

    with other investors allowing a more

    progressive investment strategy, this

    provides higher potential returns.

    Enabling smaller investment amounts

    to be used.

    Oers a hassle-free method of investing

  • 8/3/2019 Venture Oil Brochure 2

    10/20

    Venture International Investment Syndicates

    require a minimum investment of $12,000

    US Dollars. Investors can choose to become

    involved in several dierent syndicates using

    varying investment strategies, or invest larger

    sums in those syndicates that are most suited

    to their prole.

    Very often by the time prime investments

    are advertised in the public domain they have

    already been secured by large investment

    experts and discounted launch oers have been

    fully allocated out to these groups. Good diverse

    investments are snapped up by those within

    the industry before they are even released to

    the public. Venture International provides to

    investors the same opportunities as the large

    corporate entities.

    Venture International has access to

    professionals and experts within the industry and

    can source excellent o-market opportunities.

    Venture International are then able to oer

    syndicate participation to its investor clients.

    An essential element of securing a high-quality

    investment is a thorough due diligence process.But this costs money and is often too expensive

    for the individual investor.

    By sharing the due diligence costs, investors

    can have access to the experts through Venture

    International to ensure that the investment

    purchased is sound.

    This expert advice is available throughout

    the syndication period for all facets of the

    The objective of the syndicate is to provide

    the investors with high investment returns

    in the medium term through investment in a

    diversied range of investment options in the

    major developing markets.

    invest in pure speculative, untried ventures.

    All syndicates are managed. This means when

    you invest in a Venture International syndicate

    another fund manager to make judgement and

    call on, what, where and if an investment is

    made. The syndicate Directors adhere to the

    This investment is structured through Venture

    Oil Investments Limited a Special Purpose

    Vehicle (Syndicate Company). It is a Tax

    Ecient single asset Investment Company

    funded through syndicated investment.

    The structure has been designed to be the

    most ecient and protable way to add assets

    into any investors portfolio, and extends an

    opportunity to syndicate investment with other

    known or unknown investors. Equally, this

    structure allows sophisticated investors to

    spread risk whilst presenting the opportunity

    to invest through the purchase of shares in a

    company underwritten by the tangible asset of

    property - in this case Oil Revenue.

    The structure is simple, an oshore limitedliability company divided into equal shares, and

    a company resolution to buy a single real asset

    (1000 Barrels of oil) within certain investment

    guidelines. The Articles of Association of this

    Company are standard for most jurisdictions,

    and are based on English Common Law.

    On full subscription the Syndicate Company

    eects the purchase contract of 1000 barrelsof oil from the contracted operator outright

    and debt free, further more the shareholder

    agreement prevents the directors from

    raising debt on the asset without a majority

    shareholding vote to do so. This further protects

    the interests of investors.

    The main element to this investment is a real

    and tangible asset in the form of a forward

    purchase contract in oil producing wells.

    Shareholders

    The Syndicate Company is ultimately owned

    and managed by shareholders. Each Company

    is typically divided into equal shares and is

    structured by the Syndicate Manager so that no

    single shareholder can acquire a majority voting

    position.

    Investment

    The initial investment required to fully subscribe

    to the Syndicate Company is calculated by

    the gross purchase price of the 1000 barrels,

    including administration and establishment

    costs. In the case of this investment $48,000

    USD. Minimum investment is $12,000 USD

    for 250 Barrels so the maximum amount ofshareholders per syndicate is 4.

    Annual Costs

    Venture International Holdings Limited

    Syndicate Managers fees are xed annually at

    1% of the annual revenue. An additional annual

    xed fee of 500.00 GBP per syndicate, is

    payable from income received and coversthe oshore registration costs, and annual

    reporting mechanisms of the company. Both

    costs are charged annually in arrears and met

    from the income received into the company.

    Investment Returns

    All projected investment returns in this

    information have been calculated after allowing

    for all the costs shown in this section, but

    before any UK taxes payable by direct investors

    themselves.

    INVESTMENT STRUCTURE

  • 8/3/2019 Venture Oil Brochure 2

    14/20

    Taxation and the Syndicate Company

    The following summary is a guide for investors

    considering whether to invest in the Syndicate

    Company. It is not specic advice for any

    investor and any such investor requiring such

    advice should speak to their specialist advisors.

    Income Tax

    which the income from the rental guarantees

    are received are tax ecient and mitigate annual

    taxable income. Each individuals personal tax

    circumstances will detail the amount and type

    of tax due.

    Capital Gains

    Each investor is treated under UK tax rules as

    having direct ownership of shares in an unquoted

    company. If the asset held within the Company

    established for this acquisition is sold, then the

    appropriate taxes are due dependent upon the

    individual circumstances of each investor. Thecircumstances of the disposal of the asset will

    dictate the relevant capital gains tax due.

    Inheritance Tax

    The net asset value of the investors assets held

    within the Syndicate Company will form part of

    the estate for inheritance tax purposes if the

    investor is liable to UK inheritance tax.

    Company is outside the scope of UK stamp

    taxes.

    Value Added Tax

    The Syndicate Company is formed in ajurisdiction to which VAT is not applicable.

    TAXATION AND THESYNDICATE COMPANY

  • 8/3/2019 Venture Oil Brochure 2

    15/20

    Potential investors should carefully consider

    the following risk factors in relation to the

    investment, which individually or in aggregate

    could have a material eect on the investment

    return, and should consult their nancial

    advisor before investing. Investors should be

    aware that the value of this investment is linked

    intrinsically to the oil prices and in the event

    that oil prices dramatically reduced this would

    signicantly reduce the investment returns.

    Valuation of the Royalties and Oil

    producing Wells

    The sales comparison approach in valuing such

    an investment as this has some limited use in

    providing a range of values. Dierences inlocation, procedures, facilities and property

    rights transferred and many other variables make

    a precise comparison between the comparable

    sales, and this particular project dicult.

    Subjective adjustments used to lessen these

    diculties are highly speculative. Moreover,

    there is no accurate way of determining whether

    the sales prices actually paid represent market

    values, because it is dicult to determine theexact motivations of the buyers and sellers, or

    what special conditions may have inuenced

    the sale.

    Operational Risk

    This risk represents the possibility that the

    operator is responsible for the extraction of

    the oil will under-perform and will therefore

    experience periods of nancial distress.

    However, given the relative experience of

    the operator appointed to extract the oil and

    maintain the level of oil production, the level of

    operational risk is not considered high.

    RISK FACTORS

  • 8/3/2019 Venture Oil Brochure 2

    16/20

    Market Risk

    Volatility in economic growth rates, oil prices,

    investment values and exchange rates may

    aect returns as a result of their impact on the

    performance of the investment.

    Currency

    The deposit into the investment is made from

    Sterling into US Dollars. Returns are paid into

    the Syndicate Company in US Dollars. There are

    inherent risks in any exchange rate dependent

    investment. Should the UK Pound against the

    US Dollar be stronger the return will be greater.

    Should the UK Pound against the US Dollar be

    weaker the return will be less. (This assumesthat all other variables are constant).

    Investors should consider the current risk

    associated with this investment over the

    lifetime of the investment, as well as the

    political considerations associated with these

    jurisdictions and how they might aect these

    interacting exchange rates.

    Sale

    Whilst the shares in the Syndicate can be sold

    at any time following purchase (subject to the

    majority vote of its shareholders) the price that

    will be attained when shares are sold will be

    heavily dependent on a number of factors, most

    of which are detailed within this report. The

    better the performance of the income revenue

    at the time of sale, the higher the sale price will

    be. The sale of shares will be dependent on a

    number of factors including market liquidity

    and economic conditions at that time.

    Liquidity

    Though this investment is structured throughthe purchase of shares in a company, the asset

    behind the investment is oil which is of a less

    liquid nature than some other asset classes.

    The investment period is for the xed term of 7

    years (84 months).

    If an investor wishes to sell their shares prior to

    the end of the investment term, then additional

    costs may have to be met by that investor, suchas share valuation and administration costs.

    Shares if sold prior to the end of the investment

    term will be oered for 30 days to remaining

    syndicate shareholders, before they can be

    oered for sale elsewhere.

    Death of an Investor during the Lifetimeof the Investment

    SIPP Investor

    In the event of the death of a SIPP investor

    on whose behalf shares are held within their

    SIPP, the directors of the Syndicate Company

    will endeavour to establish an internal market

    for the purchase of the shares amongst

    current shareholders. In the unlikely event that

    no buyers can be found within 3 months of

    notication of an investors death, the director

    may oer the shares on the open market or to a

    new investor at a fair market price.

    Where possible for a SIPP investor the shares

    could be assigned to the next of kin as in a

    specie payment.

    Non SIPP Investor

    In the event of the death of a private individual

    shareholder, the directors of the Syndicate

    Company will endeavour to establish an internal

    market for the purchase of the shares amongst

    current shareholders. In the unlikely event that

    no buyers can be found within 3 months ofnotication of an investors death, the director

    may oer the shares on the open market or to a

    new investor at a fair market price.

    In both of the above cases the denition of a

    fair market price is a subjective one and the

    investors beneciary may receive a diminished

    return to that anticipated. Where possible for

    a direct investor the shares could be assigned

    to the next of kin.
