Getting Started--What tpye of industry do I choose?
What business type is most like an oil & natural gas joint interest business account?

My best guess would be Wholesale Distribution and sales... but in reality all the choice does is try to give you a Chart of Account best suited for that type of industry. You can add and modify accounts easily after creation so there isnt a need for the choice to be an exact match.
