Invito Energy Partners manages oil and gas drilling programs for high-income investors. Investors generally receive an 80%–95% ordinary income deduction in year one, with distributions beginning within 12 months and building from there.

Darren spent more than 20 years advising high-income clients as a fee-only wealth advisor — including building and selling his own RIA. He knows how rarely these programs get in front of the right investors, and he joined Invito specifically to change that. His goal is to put that experience to work helping investors who are positioned to benefit actually understand and access this structure.
If you schedule a call, you're talking to Darren.
Yes. We're here to support both you and your professional advisors throughout the process. I'm available to join a call with any of you to walk through the tax mechanics, our program structure, and answer questions directly.
It starts with a brief call to determine whether this is a fit for your situation. If it is, you'll receive access to our data room, which includes the current program materials and historical fund statements. From there, you involve your CPA or financial advisor as needed and make a decision. Keep in mind that each program has a hard close date — if you're interested, it's worth starting the conversation early.
Our investment minimum is $50,000.
Invito operates as a non-operator, meaning we invest alongside experienced drilling companies. Each program is diversified across multiple Tier 1 developmental wells. We charge no markups on acreage or AFEs, and our fee structure is straightforward. Every well is underwritten to our return targets on its own. We believe the tax benefit should improve the outcome, not carry it.
Our investment minimum is $50,000.
Several provisions in the U.S. tax code apply specifically to oil and gas investing. The most relevant:
Tax Provision
Investor Benefit
IRC §263(c)
Immediate deduction of intangible drilling costs (IDCs)
IRC §469(c)(3)
IDC losses can offset active income
IRC §167 / §168
Depreciation of tangible equipment
IRC §613
15% depletion deduction on production income
IRC §613A
Defines depletion eligibility
IRC §465
Losses limited to at-risk capital
Once wells are producing, a portion of your distributions is sheltered by the depletion allowance and is not subject to federal income tax. The exact percentage varies based on your cost basis and income, but it is meaningful. The remaining portion is treated as ordinary income. Your CPA will account for this on your annual K-1.
K-1s are typically issued by March 31st
Distributions are paid quarterly. They typically begin in the third quarter following the program's drilling year, as wells come online and begin producing. Distribution amounts are modest in the first year and generally grow through years two and three as more wells reach peak production.
While there is no performance guarantee, we generally target return of your full initial capital in approximately four years through distributions. That's cash-on-cash — no tax benefit included. Beyond that, we typically look to exit the wells in years five through ten, which is where the remaining upside is captured. This is not a liquid investment, and you should plan accordingly.
We underwrite every well at approximately $65 per barrel, below the 20-year average of $72. Sustained prices below that threshold reduce returns, but because there's no debt in the structure, the wells can temporarily reduce production and wait for prices to recover.
Schedule a 45-minute call with Darren. No pressure, just a clear conversation about whether this is a fit for your situation.
