This document contains a presentation by Ledger Partnerships about investing in oil and gas production. It discusses the company's strategy of purchasing producing oil and gas leases and consolidating them into portfolios to generate predictable cash flows. It notes the risks involved in oil and gas investments and that past performance is not indicative of future results. The presentation provides examples of production assets generating monthly revenues ranging from $9,000 to $110,000 and argues that current low oil and gas prices create opportunities to purchase production assets.

8. Why Oil & Gas – The Core Commodity
The supply of oil and gas is limited and uncertain while the
demand for energy continually grows as the global population
expands.
This fact alone
supports the
long term value
of owning
direct oil & gas
now and in the
future.
