Energy Trends Are Kind To Investors

The energy industry’s unique place in the global economy creates an endless stream of bull markets and big trends.

For example, recently the big trends have been hitting one after the other, producing gains like…

 

– 1,157.63% gains from the bull market in solar – enough to turn a $20k investment into $178,000…

– 1,689.94% gains from the bull market in oil tankers – enough to turn every $20k invested into $357,988…

– 2,431.745% gains from the bull market in North American on-shore drill rigs – enough to turn every $20k invested into $506,350…

These are five trends investors should be paying the most attention to right now because so much industry money is piling into them…

1. The Super Boom in Subsea Infrastructure. The Oil & Gas industry is increasing investment FIVE TIMES over from $27 billion a year to $130 billion a year on new unseen infrastructure.

2. The Boom in Oil Production technology that is TRIPLING the value of existing wells: It’s an investor’s dream-come-true because it is the equivalent of re-discovering every known oil-field TWICE OVER.

3. The Boom in Hyper Oil & Gas Hunting. New technology discovers new oil & gas fields FIFTEEN TIMES FASTER than earlier methods. This tech is sweeping through the industry like wild-fire as explorers race to find new fields first… but the tech is where investors will make the biggest returns, the fastest.

4. The $200 Billion Boom in Specialized Engineering Firms: A pipeline of $10 billion + projects easily totaling over $200 billion will likely make these engineering firms – and their investors – rich

5. The Multi-Billion Dollar Shale Revolution Goes Global.

For Example, 2. The Boom in Oil Production Technology that is Tripliing the value of existing oil wells works like this:

Step one: Capture CO2, Carbon gas, emitted by the refiners. Full operations will capture 90% of carbon dioxide emitted by refiners – enough to condense the carbon impact of 10 refineries essentially down to the size of one.

Step two: The CO2 is then transported directly to oil wells.

Step three: Where it is injected into the ground to increase pressure in the wells. When the CO2 mixes with the trapped oil the oil EXPANDS. The increased pressure pumps the oil out.

So for every $1 of oil produced in existing wells this process produces $2 more.

Just one oil field south of Houston, Texas, is looking at an increase from 1.6 million barrels of recoverable oil to 3.1 million barrels.

This technology is a MAJOR NEW PROFIT CENTER for the oil industry.

If you can consistently get in front of these big trends then you can produce staggering gains.

For example, if you’d been investing along industry insiders and caught the solar boom in 2006 you could’ve turned a $10,000 investment in First Solar into $125,763 in three short years.

Then, if you grabbed the next big energy trend, the shale railroad boom (The boom in rail was caused by the overabundance in shale oil overwhelming existing pipelines), you could’ve turned that $125,000 into $669,012 in another four years.

That’s just two energy trends but together they could’ve turned your $10k initial investment into over $669,000 in about 7 years.

To put that in perspective consider the S&P 500 during the same period delivered a cumulative 7-year return of just 14.24% – or only enough to grow a $10,000 investment into $11,424.
