Mexican Seaboard Oil Sub
sidiary Will Enter Compe-
tition With the Mexican
Eagle, Which Has a Re-
finery in That Section.

Tampico. April 2S.-The Cha. Next
cana de Terrenos Y Petroleo s. A.
subsidiary of the Mexican Seaboard
Oil company, operating in Tabasco
and Chiapas, will start development
of holdings on the Isthmus Of Tehuan-
tepec where the Mexican Eagle is the
only company which has ever done
any drilling.
Three locations have been made
west of Minatitlan where the Eagle
has q refinery.
The locations are across the river
from the Conception holdings Of the
latter where several wells estimated as
35,000-barrel producers have been
completed but which have sanded up
after flowing for several hours.
The Inst well brought in by the
Eagle operating as the Cha. Mexicana
de Petroleo "El Aeuila." s. A., No. %
was of &c degrees Baume gravity oil.
1t made 1000 barrels in three hours
and then sanded up to within 700 feet
of the top. Oil in this region has
been in an unconsolidated sand and
methods so far used have been unsuc-
cessful.
1t is the intention of the Seaboard
to set several strings of perforated
liners by which method it is thought
probable that the hole can be kept
open.
Output Was Heavy.
Production Of the Aguila in the dis
trict has been about 100000 barrels.
all of which was put through the
Minatitlan refinery, of this amount
100000 barrels was obtained in
1915 and 1916. Present production
Is very slight and the refinery is be-
ing run on crude which is brought
from California.
The Seaboard locations are on salt
domes on the Usanapa river about five
kilometers south of the old Filasola
field of the Eagle. Production, il OBJ
tanned, can be handled at practically
no expense as the wells are but a few
hundred meters from the river which
Is navigable for small tankers at tbs
point.
