MARINE WELL To
EXTEND FIELD
New Producer Six Miles
Southeast of Main Produc-
ing Area Important.

The significance of the producing
well which WIS completed by tho Ma
rins ON company on the southwest
quarter OF section 17-3s-7s and the
bearing that this oil development has
to the entire Salt Creek district Is
just becoming fully realized.
This we'll. located about six miles
southeast of the main part OF tho Salt
Creek field, has upset geological opin-
ions in this territory n In h vast
crcag tina intervenes between this
well n the heaviest production of
tho field. Instead Of the well being
towards the edge OF the structure and
having smnil production as ordinary
wells OF this KIM have. the produc-
ton OF the Marine well is estimated at
1000 barrels of oil a day. and Il is
believed that the production could be
easily stimulated To $500 or 5000
barrels a day.
Tho history OF the development OF
this southern end of the field Is IN
delfbly connected with the Glenrock
on company and Its associated inter
ests. In h land in section IT the
Gienrock and Royalty and Producers
company have an undivided half IN
terest In the development
Development Began In 1915.
The preliminaries leading up to the
development OF the well on section
IT started back in 1916, whom r. q.
Taylor, Harry Adams and r J. Mosh-
CT acquired and drilled n hole on Soc
ton 1e. adjoining section IT. AT that
time 1t was thought h land was too
far out to hold a possibility OF return

tiles of the Salt Creek district the
Royalty and Producers company and
tho GIenrock OIL company then a o
CURED control of this acreage, the
arrangements believing that there
was a direct connection between
the Salt Creek and Teapot fields and
that eventually development would
lead to production in this area
The Glenrock on company through
its stock control of tho Marine on
company has constantly continued Its
campaign of acquisition OF lands In
southern Salt Creek. until recent do

l. In addition to the Salt Creek hold
ings. the Gienrock company through
its control OF subsidiary organizations
has valuable holdings in many other
fields chief OF which is the lands
held by the Marine company in the
Elk Basin field. This concern cou-
trolls half interest in $50 acres on
which many wells have been drilled
Jointly with the Ohio on company.
Company Coming TO the Front
With conservative management by
men who know the oil game and who
are connected with the development
Of Wyoming oil fields in all parts OF
the state. tho possibilities of future
production and earnings hold a rosy
outlook. The properties which these
concerns have acquired In many fields
merely await the drill to determine
the amount and kind OF production,
so it is believed that during the COM
ing year the Gienrock company will
further intrerch itself as one of the
leading independents of this state.
