spud Norge Test Today.
It is probable that the Messimore
and Steiret test on the McGarvln
farm. two miles south Of Norge IN
section 25-G-S will be spudded To-Day
Yesterday afternoon, the drillers
stated that from all indications, they
would be ready to start by 4 o'clock
this afternoon. They have been rig
ging up for. several days.
The well Is to be drilled by the
Shriver and Failing Drilling COM
pany.o of Duncan. They are contracted
ia 20 $500 feet unless oil or gas is
found in paying quantities at lesser
depth. The contractors state that
every precaution will be taken
against passing through a pay sand.
They will make double hole on
large portion Of the well.
Quadrangle Progressing
The test Of the Quadrangle Petrol
cum company is to bring the next
verdict as to Grady county produc-
tion. according to indications at this
time. They are drilling on the. Will
liams farm, in section 1916 and last
night had reached a depth of 1,Sf2
feet.
The formations at that depth
showed sandy shale with frequent
streaks Of blue gumbo. The gumbo
formation has been encountered fol-
several hundrd feet. Because of its
depth, the Quadrangle is drawing the
major interest among Grady county
oil fans at this time. Barring acci
dents, next week should produce
something interesting at this test.
