S. | i The news from the oil fields for the} past week favored a considerable in- crease in new production, says the! weekly review of the Oil City Derrick.| Oklahonia had a long list of good pro- ducers completed during the week, with a few in the pusher class, and estimates based on pipe line reports of North Cen- tral Texas and North Louisiana, showed gains over the previous figures. More interesting even than the output} are the reports of extensions of oil! fields, the discovery of new, and nice} showings in several wildcat ventures far removed from production. On the} whole the news was very favorable for - a larger production and greater de- ( velopment. Oklahoma -had many completions in| the reports, and a considerable num-| , = her of dry holes. The southern districts are very busy and the pools discovered _ there are gaining in importance. The * Hewitt pool is credited with 28,000 bar-| * rels daily production from 146 wells. ’ Okmulgee county is one of the bis ofl sections of the state. During the last week jit offered a well starting at 1,000 barrels, which extended the pool on sec» tion 22-14-11 northward into section 15. Two more wells in se 22 were cred- tion 2 ited with 1,700 and 1,800 barrels, re- spectively. Th are owned by the Gladys Belle Oil company. The Gilli- 000-har- from the land Oil company reported a rel producer in Osage county, Mississippi line. The well started at} 290 barrels an hour, and gauged 6,500 barrels in 24 hours, but the manager estimates it will settle to about 2,000 barrels as it fell off rapidly. Being only two feet in the pay its probable output is uncertain. The location is eight miles north of ’s big pro- ducers on the Bi . which were! also in the Mi: News from Kansas was rather interesting in the late reports.
