The Bass Family

Bass Energy & Exploration, LLC is independently owned and operated by the Bass family. Steven grew up in the business and started his own company with one goal: treat every investor with the respect and integrity they deserve. We find good projects at fair prices. That approach has driven several years of strong results.

BEE Operations

Our projects are sourced, planned, drilled, and produced by a tight-knit group of independent oil and gas professionals. Our geologists and engineers research, evaluate, and oversee the geology on every well. Together, they bring over 100 years of combined experience — and they've been working as a team for more than 20 of those years.

A Commitment to America and to Our Investors

Help us keep the American dream alive. This country was built by hard-working, independent business owners who weren't afraid to get their hands dirty. That spirit is fading as big corporations squeeze out the little guy. Stand with our family and help keep it going — for our kids and theirs.

Here's our promise: we treat your money like our own. We won't do anything with your capital that we wouldn't do with ours, and we do what we say we'll do. Plain and simple. Now let's drill for some oil and gas.

— The Bass Family

Texas Born. Oklahoma Based.

Bass Energy & Exploration (BassEXP) is an independent, family-owned oil and gas company in Oklahoma. We started in Dallas and moved our headquarters to Oklahoma City to stay close to what matters: the geology. Our team works Oklahoma's STACK and SCOOP basins, where decades of local experience give us a real edge.

We're the same investor-first company we've always been. No luxury offices. No inflated overhead. No wasted dollars. We keep things lean so more of your capital goes into the ground, where it belongs. Every dollar we save on office rent is a dollar working harder for our partners.

We put our own money in alongside yours. No gimmicks, no hype — just honest incentives, transparent communication, and shared upside. That's how we stay focused on what actually matters: successful wells and lasting relationships.

Our Mission and Operating Philosophy

BassEXP exists for one reason: to give qualified investors access to well-run oil and gas projects with full transparency and aligned incentives. We are not a Wall Street fund packaging assets we never touch. We are operators. We source the geology, plan the wells, oversee the drilling, and manage production. When you invest with us, you are partnering with the people who are on the ground making decisions every day.

Our operating philosophy is built on three principles. First, we invest our own capital alongside our partners in every single well. That means our interests are aligned from day one — we only make money when you make money. Second, we report everything. Every cost, every production number, every decision that affects your investment gets communicated clearly and on time. No black boxes, no vague quarterly summaries. Third, we focus on what we know. Our team has spent decades working the SCOOP, STACK, and Anadarko Basin formations in Oklahoma. We do not chase speculative plays in unfamiliar territory just because the headlines look exciting.

That focus is what allows us to keep overhead low and put more of every dollar into the ground. Our projects range from development wells in de-risked formations with strong production histories to select exploratory opportunities where our geologists see compelling data. In every case, the decision to drill is backed by real subsurface analysis, not promotional hype. We believe qualified investors deserve an operator who treats their capital with the same discipline and care they would apply to their own — because we do.
