It is extremely doubtful that you could run oil/gas work as an independent the way you are running as a MORTGAGE independent.  All the o/g companies and brokers I know want to set you up at a county (paying all your expenses) and you work only on their project(s) (even tho you're not an employee -- you'd still be a sub-contractor).  also, once a project ends, they'll want to send you elsewhere.  (Hot spots are PA, TX, OK, MT, CO, SD right now.)

I have contact with several abstractors who, like me, have done mortgage work for years and have changed to o/g while mortgage is dead and o/g is hot.  If you would like more information and advice, please feel free to contact me.  Please e-mail my o/g address which is    oily@ArgentTitleResearch.com
