Water was encountered in the Da: kota sand in the test well which is being drilled in the Bodie dome by the Iowa-Wyoming, Chappell Oli and San Juan Petroleum companies. The sand was encountered at a depth of 260 feet, or about 350 feet shallower than the conforming formation in the Bolton field. The finding of water in the sand adds much to the development possi bilities in the field, as drilling opera- tions were impeded because of the tage of water. With the Dakota sand in place the other formations should also con- form. This would place the Sundance sand at about 800 feet and the Em- bar sand at 1,750 feet.
