Al this time the production OF

Hthe state. For several years IL pro-

a. 10000 barrels and there are pos
5tbillties that It will go even higher.
H. wells OF large size have been nu-
sraroug, but only a few OF them will
recorded In this review.
a One Of the largest wells that was

q. bich produced only few days,
.qs that OF the MInnehoma OIL com
& any iu the northwest of 14-26-8,
Eour miles west of Pawhuska. This
%rroiucer found it's output in the
HNlssissippi lime at 2,340 feet. The
%vsl. upon getting a break in the
#rratun. started to flow over the
& H,urrounding country. and II was re-
Hperted to be making as high as 1000
&tsrrels hourly, but this is probably
Hfgh. as there was no way OF telling
.Svhat it was good for during the few
H6ays Of its existence. After this
sm0nster had spouted its oil over the
7fuwounding country IL was shut in
'Sind later tankage was prepared, but
Hvhen the well opened again IL failed
respond and since then 1t has
Ynsver made a barrel Of oil. II is OF
Anterest to know that later opera
q ons failed to develop anything OF
NJ i,erest in the other wells drilled in
Xhat locality.
y It's initial flow was variously esti-
Minated all the way from 500 20 1000
q barrels hourly. but just what II
&raally did make will never be

Mgauge the well it might have been

Hfhe Mississippi lime has shown
#many other wells Of gusher size, but
Nwhile some are still producing they
B heli up only for a DAY or so after
