L. 0L LS ~ TOCRBOUPUT Interior Secretary Asks Com-/| panies to Co-operate in Con- | serving Petroleum Product. A move to curb production on two Government oil fields—one the Kettle- man area near Los Angeles and the other in New Mexico where the Texas Co. bored through sandy desert land to find petroleum—was made by Secretary of Interior Wilbur yesterday. In the case of the Kettleman field the Secretary asked four companies operat- ing in the area to arrange a co-operative program which would conserve its pe- troleum in the ground instead of bring- ing it into a congested market. The Becretary of the Interior has the power to ask companies operating on Govern- ment land to co-operate as far as is considered reasonable in conserving natural resources. “Group Development” Cited. ‘The ruling affecting the newly dis- covered Southwest New Mexico field was the result of a hearing held before the Secretary recently concerning the operation of the Texas Co. on what is generally termed a “group development.” ‘The company has drilled a number of wells over a wide area covered by a number of permits issued to individuals who in turn asked the Texas Co. to perform the actual drilling work. ‘The decision in the Texas Co. cases, which is expected to set a precedent under which other group operations will come, was that the company and quali- fied permittees are entitled to five leases from permits on which discovery of oil and gas has been made. 15 Permits Conform to Law. The Secretary also found that 15 permits were in good standing either because the statutory time for drilling had not elapsed or that drilling opera- tions already under way justified exten- sion. The remaining 58- permits were directed to be canceled. Under the present policy, the Secre- tary said, leases will be granted only for one-fourth of the area included in each | permit, which is the amount made mandatory under the leasing law.
