MV Oil Trust

MV Oil Trust is a passive royalty trust that holds an 80% net profits interest in oil and gas production from underlying properties operated by MV Partners. It does not operate wells itself; instead, it collects cash from production, pays minimal trust expenses, and distributes the remaining funds to unitholders until the trust terminates.
