WELL DESPITE WINTER SEASON Lcuisiana.-Fields jeoa Jump into First! Place in Point of New Pro- duction in Month The oil fleld report for the first mionth | of-the new year is very favorable tor | active development in 1920, says ith | Derrick’s monthly summary. Notwith:| standing bad weather conditions in all | Parts of the oil region, there were 2,114! ‘Wells compléted, the number being only 18 less than in December. The in-| creases reported amounted to 190 in| North Texas, 30 in Kansas, 11 in the; Gulf Coast and 7 in North Louisiana. | Fewer new wells were reported from; Pennslyvania, the loss being 115, and} there were 63 less in Kentucky, 34) fewer in Oklahoma and a loss of 30 in in Central Ohio. The other divisions ‘were practically normal, The few pro- duction credited to the wells aggre gated 452,397 barrels. Nearly one-half of this amount was credited to North Louisiana, the total in that division be- ing 215,000 barrels, a grand gain of 128,730 barrels over its December fig- ures. Kansas reported the next larg: | est increase of 6,189 barrels, and Ok) Jahoma hi a gain of 38437 barrels.) North Texas lost 55,854 barrels as com-/ pared with its Deéember report. Small! gains and losses were reported from the | other division The figures on initial production make a new high record of 3314 barrels over that of November, which previously had the high mark, In January, 1919, the new production was ! 148,167 barrels, or 304,230 barrels less than the present report. While con-; Biderable of this new production comes from gusher wells, which are ‘not éx- pected to maintain their fresh output very long, the amount is so large as to indicate a great increase im the avail- able potential ofl supply of the United / States. Included jn the January. completions are 420 dry holes and 147 gas wells. This is an increase of 13 failures and 4 loss of 29 gas producers. Nearly one- 1 NATION'S OIL FELOS SHOW UP.
