The Worlds production Of pelro.
leum IN 1909 amounted to ~ISs.tsf,.
loS0 barrels. lOi this the United
States and Russia produced oi.44
per cent. For years Russia has led
in point Of producliod, but an in
crease OF Io, s77,7as barrels in the
production OF tho United States IN
1904 aud a decrease amounting to
4,oaS, SIS barrels in the production
Of Russia caused these two countries
to change places. and put the uuit-
ed States at the head OF the list
Our country has, however, a still
more important advantage over It's
foremost petroleum rival. More
than double the quantity OF the high
er grades of refined products IS OBJ
tanned from the average crude petro-
leum produced in the United States
than is obtained from Russian oil.
The United States produced nearly
20 barrels Of refined products in
1904 tor every barrel produced by
the rest of the world.
The purest and most valuable
grades Of crude petroleum in the
world are from the Appalachian and
Lima-Indiana fields in the United
States. A very fair grade of oil /.
also produced IN a comparatively
small way in Suma,ra, Java, Gali-
cia, Roumania and India.
Within reeen years crude petro-
leum of inferior quality has been
largely consumed as fuel oil. In
Russia petroleum has been distilled
only sufficiently to meet the Govern
menf requirements as 10 the flash
test, and the remainder is marketed
as fuel petroleum, under the head
of residuum. This Is also true to
a certain extent, in our newly-deyel.
oped fields in Texas, Louisiana and
California. Cheap transportation
BY pipe lines and tank ships ha,
made this variety of fuel marketable
in distan, quarters Of the globe thai
are destitute OF coal.
