TRIPLETS ON AMSTER

Unique Nature of Sands Makes
Hewitt Best Pool In

of 1764-lS37 feet. Total depth of the
hole is 1880 feet. 1t had been origin
ally intended 10 carry the drill in
this test to the Hewitt big pay at 2lOO
feet but a difficult fishing job made
it advisable TO complete the we'll at
its present depth and drill a triplet
now as No. s to the deeper sand.
No. s will be drilled with the rotary
tools TO the top of the sand and
drilled in with the standard.
The three wells or this location
Will present i fine example Of the pro-
life nature, the great number and
the longevity of the sands existent in
the Hewitt field. One Of the wells No.

depths of l43s-l500 feet: l5l2-24 feet;
100000 feet; 1908 feet; 1770-sC feet:
1899 feet; with = total depth OF
1870 feet.
II IS most interesting TO note that in
an interval Of 7l2 feet the Hewitt
proven area has 27l feet Of pay sand.
This has been proved in the Amster.

Tho Hewitt field sands are described
as unique by Harve LOOMS OF Oklaho-
ma City, petroleum ~geologist who has
made a close study OF the area. Mr..
LOOMS pays particular tribute 10 the
work OF p. B. Jeffries. prominent men,

manager OF the n. l.. Amster oil
properties. He points out that the Am.
ster lease is a property which has
been operated In u most efficient
manner. and substantiates his state.

results of operation on the Amster
property have shown that the average
production per well there has been at

the area. The figures which prove
this have been compiled up to Novem.

sands known 10 be existing in the
Hewitt field are producing on the
Amster property, perforated casing

OF the Amster lease" states Mr..
Loomis, may be attributed TO the
efficient management of Mr.. Jeffries.

Mr.. I<oomls Is high in his praise OF
the work as carried on In the Hewitt
field In general as compared with
other fields of the state, and states
that the only other oil AREA In Okla.
horna which comes near In COMPARE
son with Hewitt Is the Burbank which
does not equal the local territory In
that it does not have the sand In

While it viii take actual drilling to

Hewitt area exists. nevertheless. there
has been nothing done to condemn
such determination, and the poten.

great. states Mr.. Loomis.
