Numerous Concerns Are
Interested in NeD
Wildcat Test

Wildcat Test
PoNCA CITY, May 27.-scveral
Of the more important Oil concerns
are interested either In offset or
Inside acreage in the new wildcat
test to be drilled by A. V. Waldo OF
Ponca City and T.. A. Busklin
leases assembled in northwestern
Grant county. Included in the in
terested list are the McMan OF
company of Tulsa, r.. =. Harwell of
Tulsa, the quadrangle Petroleum
company OF Enid and the V. r.. Bo-
line Refining company, with the
Marland Oil company having an ad-
ditional block Just to the north and
near the Kansas state boundary.
Waldo and Bucklin hove made
their location for this test on the
Holtsclaw farm in southeast 35-2S-
Tw. 1t is understood that the slush
pond, cellar and rig have been com
pleted and that drilling viii be in
augurated at once. The location is
two miles straight south of Waklta
on the half section line and Is three
quarters east OF the test drilled by
the American Petroleum OF Wa&ita,
four years ago. to a depth of 1850
feet. The new location liz a little over
five miles northwest OF the other
wildcat that Waldo and Bucklln are
drilling seven miles west OF Med
ford on the Bradley farm in south
west 2S-27-6.
The new test is being drilled on n
structure mapped out by Clayton
II. Eaton, %geologist for the quad
rangle company, running from
northwest to southeast and passing
through or near the towns of Glib
bon, Wakita and jefferson toward
CARRIER. II crosses also the acre
age where the test is being put down
on the Bradley farm, on what is
known as the Red hill dome. Eaton
has located two domes. the wakita
and Rcd hill.
The Bradley farm test has reached
a depth of $3.50 feet, having set
the six-inch casing at 3.l75 feet.
A five-foot a sand was encoun-
tered in this test at l.43S feet and a
seven-foot a sand at 1926 feet.
In Bliss Tonkawa Field.
OIL men state that the Bliss
Tonkawa field after several disap-
pointments has taken a new lite.
This statement is backed UP by the
Conan oil company getting oil in
the test on the Ruzek farm. a mile
north of production, in the regular
~2,600-foot sand. At q depth of 2,632
feet there were 1000 feet of Oil in
the hole. 1t is maintained by geolo-
gists that this depth is just n foot
above the water level and this well
will, therefore, not be ~deepened for
the present at least. but It will put
on the pump TO await development.
The Conan on the Carmichael farm,
a half. mile north of the RuZek, on
countered a good show of oil in the
2.100-foot sand through 100 feet
of water. These two unexpected con-
ditions are the cause OF the new
interest and speculation.
McCaskey & Wentz of Ponca City
are down 2,464 feet in their No. i
Hayes. an offset to the Marland or
Conan on the Ruzek. This Is in the
southwest of 3-24-1w. 1t was discov-
cred several days ago that they have
some iron in the hole which must
be drilled out before they can go
ahead. Naturally, because OF the
oil at 2,632 feet on the RuZe6 farm.
there Is much interest in the out
come of the McCaskey-Wentz test.
In 14-24-1w McCaskey & Wentz
have skldded the rig and arc now
down about 1900 feet in the new
hole.
New Concern in Field.
! An important test IN the extension
OF the Bliss-Tonkawa field is to be
drilled in northeast 11-25-lw,
around which 1t Is understood thai
J several Ponca City men have
, blocked 600 acres and have placed
, 10000 in the Farmers National
. bank here to guarantee drilling. The
:, contract depth is $500 feet. The
! Pennan Oil g. Gas Co, another new
! concern in this field, has made a
5 location on the north half of the
!, southeast Of S4-25-1w.
The Healdton oil & Gas Co., also
= a newcomer, has spudded in a shall
low test in 1l-2t-lw, and the GYPSY
OIL company has also come In for
= the first time and Is starting an Off
set TO the Conan Ruzek well. The
Humphreys Petroleum company has
rugged up TO deepen It's No. 4 well
In the northwest 10-24-1w which was
= completed some time & for a gas
e we'll in the S00-foot sand, and the
n same company has decided to drill
a the No. 2 on this tract 10 800 feet,
having a hole full OF water in the
2,600-foot sand.
Carriers Coming Interesting.
The coming OF the, Carter OIL com
pany into the Bliss-Tonkawa fielt
: Is also considered an interesting
n event. A location has been mad
during the past week in the south
east OF 15-24-1w on the north hal
OF the Morris farm, offsetting tn
south half of the John w. See farm
where the Conan ,oil company ha
such a strong production.
The Producers & Refiners com
d pany has the rig completed for II
n irst on tho Annis farm. three mile
west of Kaw City. in b-26-4e, an
