Spotting the best oil stocks to buy now is tricky for many investors because of the current low-price environment. Oil prices have fallen more than 45% in the last year. For the past three months, they've hovered at their lowest levels since the financial crisis.

best oil stocks to buy nowOil stocks have slumped along with them. BP Plc. (NYSE ADR: BP) is down 24.9% since oil's peak last July. Hess Corp. (NYSE: HES) has fallen 30.8% over the same time period. ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) has tumbled 9.5% in the last three months alone.

EEP's payout has increased every year since 2006 and currently stands at 6.29%. Here's more on EEP and the benefits of MLPs...

Royal Dutch Shell Plc. (NYSE ADR: RDS.A) is a multinational oil corporation headquartered in the Netherlands. As of 2014, Shell is the second-largest company in the world by revenue behind Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE: WMT).
