Enclosure Energy was built from the ground up as the investment platform for sophisticated investors who want direct exposure to U.S. energy. Our team’s deep industry relationships generate proprietary deal flow that is not available through traditional channels.

The Enclosure Energy team has collectively transacted $2+ Billion in deal volume and has drilled or participated in over 1,000 oil & gas wells in all major regions of North America.

We combine rigorous data analysis with decades of on-the-ground experience to identify and acquire only the highest-quality opportunities in proven U.S. shale basins.

A Disciplined, Data-Driven Approach

Enclosure Energy sources opportunities through a proprietary deal flow network built over decades in the energy industry. We evaluate every project against strict financial, geological, and operator-quality criteria before presenting it to our investor community.

Our non-operated model spreads access across multiple projects at fractional ownership levels. This risk mitigation philosophy reduces exposure to any single asset while enhancing portfolio resilience, allowing us to capture diversified upside across a broader set of opportunities.

Offset Active Income
Potential to offset W-2 income, bonuses, or capital gains, depending on investment structure.

Investors typically realize 70–90% in tax deductions in the first year of participation, making oil and gas development one of the most powerful tax planning tools available. Annual Depletion Allowance continues to shield revenue in subsequent years.

Proven Locations. Experience Operators

Enclosure Energy targets only locations in the major U.S. shale basins. Each location is surrounded by existing producing wells and analogue data confirms the presence of oil and gas in the target reservoir before a single dollar is invested.

We partner exclusively with best-in-class operators with proven track records who are actively developing projects. By assembling fractional ownership positions across multiple wells and basins, we deliver diversification that individual investors could not access on their own.

Enclosure Energy’s investment process begins with proprietary sourcing. We identify opportunities through our network before they reach the broader market. Each project is then evaluated against a rigorous set of financial and geological criteria.

We structure each investment as a fractional non-operated working interest, giving investors direct ownership in the asset without the complexity of operations. Positions are assembled into diversified portfolios across multiple basins and operators.
