      Oil and gas companies get financing, and in return, the financiers get paid by these companies for future production in the form of  royalties. There are publicly traded companies which subsist solely on royalties, and have done extremely well. They tend to have few employees and low overhead, and are not exposed to the typical risks of those companies doing the actual work.
