Proper Power & Energy, Inc. (OTCBB:PPWE) disclosed that its wholly owned subsidiary, American Resources, Inc., has begun production on its 87.5 acres in Western Kentucky. American Resources, Inc. has completed the re-work on all 4 wells, with those wells online and pumping. It is a generally known fact that the United States has been importing oil since the 1970’s because oil production at home cannot meet the sky-rocketing demands of our consumption.

According to the 2009 yearly average, the U.S. Crude Oil is devouring around 21 million barrels a day and U.S. production is approximately around 5 million. Why are things increasing so rapidly? Why are resources running out at such a high acceleration? There is no easy answer but all of it is very much related to one single idea: a great number of growth. Proper Power & Energy is an independent exploration and production company. Proper Power & Energy’s operations are in Kentucky, which provides for low risk developmental drilling and production, and Utah, which Proper Power & Energy controls over 11,000 acres for its exploratory prospect.

Renowned geophysicist and consultant to Proper Power & Energy, Robert Dunbar, believes the Utah prospect could hold up to one billion barrels of recoverable oil. Typically the sponsor will have geological or engineering work done on the prospects. Investors will want to ask for a copy of these reports and gain an understanding of the potential of the reserves of the prospect. These reports may be difficult to understand for someone who doesn’t have the proper understanding of geology and engineering. As a result, an investor may want to have an advisor who can help interpret the findings. However approaching the geological and engineering information with a little common sense and research and in context of some of the other cursory inquiries mentioned within, the investor may have enough comfort level with the prospect.

Proper Power & Energy, Inc. (OTCBB:PPWE) released that it has formed a wholly owned subsidiary to operate its acquisition of 87.5 acres of land in Kentucky. The filing follows the execution of an agreement of understanding with Hunter Resources Inc., a Colorado corporation, that details the substructure of the agreements. The subsidiary will be managed by Andrew Kacic, former President of American Resources Inc., who will also serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the subsidiary. Two current members of the Board of Proper Power will serve on the Board of the subsidiary. Development wells are wells drilled in areas of known reserves. As a result, the risks involved are considerably lower.

Typically with developmental wells the risk is not geological (e.g. whether natural gas or oil will be found), but mechanical risks. Mechanical risks are things that may go wrong in the drilling process, like a section of pipe is dropped down the hole which then has to be ‘fished’ out. However over the past decade or so, with advances in technology, the mechanical risks have dropped considerably. As a result, with most wells drilled being developmental wells and advances in technology, the successful completion rate of wells today has been reported to be significantly higher compared to the successful completion rates from the 80s and early 90s. Note: successful completion doesn’t necessarily mean economically viable. Proper Power & Energy also announced that it has filed its quarterly 10Q report on time once again. The revenues that will be generated by the subsidiary will be consolidated on future income statements, according to Proper Power & Energy.

Exploration wells are typically used to describe wells in areas where there are no proven economic oil or gas wells. Certain of these types of wells may be called ‘wildcat’ wells. Exploration wells involve a high amount of risk as well as potentially high returns. The risk that investors may not find oil and/or gas is ‘geological’ risk. Most of the wells drilled today are development wells. Proper Power & Energy was formed in 2006 as an exploration and production company for oil and gas. The organization is committed to utilizing a very dynamic system of research and testing, and as a result of this extensive research and testing, have selected several sites with very good to excellent potential for productivity.

Proper Power & Energy, Inc. (OTCBB:PPWE) revealed that it will issue a letter of intent to proceed with the acquisition of additional oil and gas leases in Kentucky. Proper Power & Energy has received an extensive written proposal from Hunter Resources that includes the acquisition of leased land in Eastern Kentucky. The new field currently consists of approximately 1800 acres of land, primarily gas with good potential for crude as well. The acquisition will include nine existing wells with plans to drill additional horizontal wells. Kentucky’s existing oil and gas infrastructure is extensive. Finding and production costs are low due to the occurrence of shallow resources. Kentucky is centrally located for access and distribution to northern and eastern industrial markets.

Preliminary engineering reports demonstrate the existence of approximately 32 million dollars of natural gas. The project will allow for the expansion into a total of 5,000 acres in the future. In Kentucky, Oil and gas are produced from more than 1,500 pools from rocks of Cambrian to Pennsylvanian age. Most oil is produced from Mississippian limestone and sandstone in eastern and western Kentucky or from Ordovician limestone and dolomites in southern Kentucky. Most natural gas is produced from the Devonian black shale in eastern Kentucky.

With every well there are risks involved, including geological and mechanical. A mechanical problem or some other unforeseen event could delay the well or cost additional funds to drill, which may negatively impact your investment return. As a result, just the like the stock market, you will want to make sure that your investment is reasonably diversified to a level you are comfortable with. The amount of diversification will depend on the risk profile of the wells being proposed (e.g. developmental or exploration) as well as the investors investment objectives and risk tolerance.

Proper Power & Energy was formed in 2006 as an exploration and production company for oil and gas. The organization is committed to utilizing a very dynamic system of research and testing, and as a result of this extensive research and testing, have selected several sites with very good to excellent potential for productivity. Diversification levels may be achieved either by the package of prospects being offered by a sponsor (e.g. the investment is in multiple wells), or by allocation of your targeted funds into several projects.

Proper Power & Energy, Inc. (OTCBB:PPWE) was formed in 2006 as an exploration and production company for oil and gas. The organization is committed to utilizing a very dynamic system of research and testing, and as a result of this extensive research and testing, have selected several sites with very good to excellent potential for productivity.

Proper Power & Energy commented on a Wall Street Journal Article titled “Oil’s Rise Is a Sticky Situation for Recovery”. (Dated January 12, 2011 Section C). The article discussed the current environment of rising oil prices and its effect on consumers and the impending economic recovery. With oil prices at nearly $90 per barrel, consumers fear oil prices will return to their 2008 levels, when oil peaked over $145 per barrel. “A 2008 – style shock isn’t a certainty, but an upward trend is clear. Goldman Sachs expects oil prices to average $100 a barrel this year….,” the article is quoted as saying. Proper Power has begun production on its Kentucky oil asset, in addition to the 11,000 acres leased for its exploratory prospect in Utah. The Utah prospect has the potential for over 75 wells. Proper Power & Energy believes the Utah property holds very substantial recoverable reserves, indicated through seismic and radiometric analysis.

“The Company will benefit from these rising prices as it produces its Kentucky oil asset while creating the strategy for our exploration prospect in Utah,” stated President of American Resources, Andrew J. Kacic. American Resources is a wholly owned subsidiary of Proper Power.

Many farmers in Kentucky are trading in their tractors and overalls for oil derricks and wildcatting gear. With the price of oil reaching an all time high and the family farm becoming more and more obsolete, the attraction of getting rich by striking oil on the family’s back forty is becoming harder and harder to resist. And not without promise, with current geological readings estimating that nearly five billion barrels of oil reserves could be tucked away near Kentucky’s famed coal mines of old.

Utah ranked 11th in the United States in crude oil proved reserves and 8th in natural gas proved reserves (not including Federal Offshore areas) in 2008. Utah ranked 13th in the United States in crude oil production and 9th in gross natural gas production (not including Federal Offshore areas) during 2008. Utah contains four of the Nation’s 100 largest oil fields, two of its 100 largest natural gas fields (2008). Utah has approximately 3,200 producing oil wells and 5,700 producing natural gas wells.

“Having met with Mr. Dunbar, and through verifying the Company’s data with industry relationships, I believe Utah is a viable exploratory prospect,” stated Douglas Kiggins, Proper Power Advisor. “In further due diligence, the Anshultz Ranch field, located southwest from the Proper Power prospect, has produced One Billion B.O.E. (Barrels of Equivalent) to date, on the same geological structure as Proper Power’s.”

Oil is the lifeblood of America’s economy. Currently, it supplies more than 40% of our total energy demands and more than 99% of the fuel we use in our cars and trucks. It is a well known fact that the United States has been importing Oil since the 1970’s because the home oil production cannot meet the rising demand. According to 2009 yearly average, the U.S. Crude Oil consumption is around 21 million barrels a day and home production is only around 5 million. Advances in human technology has made the civilization completely Oil, Gas & Coal dependant, which are mainly used as fuel for diverse purposes. What makes Oil different is the immense variety of products that can be derived from it. A “brief” list of some of these products: Gasoline, Diesel, Fuel oil, Propane, Ethane, Kerosene, Liquid petroleum gas, Lubricants , other alkanes, Heating oil, asphalt, bitumen, Plastic, etc.
