TODRILL ANOTHER
TEST IN 17-5S-1E
Writ Franklin Abandons Old
Hole and Will Put Down
New Rotary Well.

Efforts to complete the fishing Job
for parted casing in the Writ Franklin
test on the George farm, in the south
west corner of the east half OF the
northwest quarter of section IT. 5s-le,
have been abandoned, and the hole will
be plugged and a new test put down
with the rotary tools in the center OF
the southwest Of the southeast of the
northwest quarter, about $50 feet nOrth'
east Of the old hole. The new test will
be drilled with the rotary to depth OF
about 1890 feet, at which the old hole
was abandoned and then the rig will
be standardized following setting of the
10.inch casing. Location Of this test Is
one and One.fourth miles northwest Of
production in the Amerada field.
The abandoned test was completed
in blue shale. During the drilling IT
passed through several goo1 showings
of oil and gas, most of which were Ell
countered between 1852 feet, where the
~ inch casing was set, and the total
depth of the hole at 1896 feet. A shall
low heavy oil showing was drilled
through at 1880 feet, and an oil sand
which would have made small pumper
was passed through at 1763-S0 feet
Broken sand was penetrated from 100
feet down.
Considerable difficulty was expert
enced by the operators of the test due
10 caving and fishing troubles and for
more than month, operations to get
the hole back into shape were under
way but proved futiie..
