During the past two | weeks, ihe 6 two new wells have been brought in, te Mid-northern- No, 7 in section 14 and the Mosby Oil company well in section 21 Jon the river and both give evidence of being good producers. | Referring to the Ingomar dome Mr. Foley stated that the Absorake Oil compa is drilling in section 26 h of Ingomar, and is making a rd for fast time and is now down approximately 1,900 feet, doing little underreaming. There are four firoducers in the Roundup field at the present ti de the Alberta Block Coal the Van Duzen, the Round. and Ga: nd@ the Montil. These wells may possibly produce 350 Is per day. In going over this with the vice president of the | Milwaukee railroad and terested person who represents the ndarmi Oil company, Mr. Foley states he learned they i: opinion after thorough investigation that this field would turn out to be { Mr. Foley gives the further infor- | | Gree: rec | the equal of any in the state, if not} the best In the Devil's Pocket structure the | Williams syndicate in’ section 1 is | down 1,000 feet and as this strycture jis supposed to be shallow a produc- tion strike is looked for at any time. | In the Big Coulee, he says, the Mid | Northern has reached a depth of 2,200 | feet but do not expect. to reach pro- | duction at less than 2.700 feet and | perhaps at an gven 3,000 feet. { | Referring agkin to the Cat Creek area Mr. Foley stated that the out put of oil during the month of August was much larger than during ‘any other month since production in this field started, being 661 cars carrying capacity of about 138,900 barerls. Dur- ing the first 15 days for the ‘present month of September there were 310 of of! forwarded, and judging from present indications the close of the month will have seen more oil shipped than in any other month to date. The Crow Rock development js] temporarily suspended, according to} Mr. Foley who adds that no other work in this field has been started, while the Anna May oll group is drill-| ing in the Coalwood structure and has a fishing job on {ts hands at a depth of 110 feet. i Regarding the Porcupine structure, Mr. Foley-has no direct information and accepts the general designation that this is.the “mystery” field of the state and he cannot understand why with four wells down which he understands cach to be below 1,000 feet, the company drilling these wells js not able to report any results, In a general way Its the opinion of Mr. Foley that the future for oil looks to be quite promising, the only deterrant ‘at the present being the low quotations on erude. Drilling Resimed at Newcastle. Drilling has been resumed at 2,700 feet in“the Carter test well on the Mead ranch, under lease by. the Beay- y Oil company, north of New- Wyo. No sand has been struck in the test well to date. The struc- ture is said to be one of the largest in the state, according to surface indi- cations, About 500 barrels of crude daily is being handled by the Alliance Oil & Refining plant at Thermopolis from the Warm Springs oil field. Seven new stills, six of which are on the ground, are to be installed in the near future and & crew also is engaged in constructing additional storage.
