Oil men from all over’the Sait Creek field are visiting the locaction, and many have come to the field from outside points. The circumstances attending the coming in of this well are out of the ordinary, as it was drilled as an offset, and large production “was not ex- pected. The wells on the other side f the line averaged about 100 ‘bar- j Fels, and the same production was ‘counted on for-the protecting well. ‘The logs of near by holes showed uni- formity, and the pay sand was con- fidently expyeted at*about 1,700 feet. On W@Snesday evening 1,400 feet had been reached, and the men were at dinner in the cook. house when a urry call came from, the field say ng that was =2 the well had broken away and flowing full through the 19-inch casing, and 50 feet over the top. . Deserting the table, the men pulled + up to the location, and tried to di- rect the flow of oil by throwing up temporary dikes. Full control has not f yet been obtained, yesterday having been spent in making preparations to} direct the production into the pipe- line.” It has not been possible to make yy accurate estimate of the flow, but 2,000 barrels .has been mentioned as difficult to arrive at an estimate. From the volume of the flow, it is probable that this well has drilled into a crevice than that the produc- tion comes from a stray sand.
