California Oil Fields Are
Near Productive Peak, Said

Mr.. Fohs thinks the peak OF produc-
ton In California is pretty close at
hand. Santa Fe Springs which is
only 2.40o acres in extent. is 90 per
cent developed. Long Beach, 1900
acres is So per cent developed; Hunt.
ington Beach. 1880 acres is 10 per
cent developed and Redondo, 5000
acres is Is per cen developed. The
four fields 1900 acres. OFF.
setting this small acreage, however.
the fields show about 1000 feet OF
sand, 20 per sent of which is pay.
and to this immense production per
acre may be attributed. The sands
lie from 1000 to 5000 feet in depth
and when the wells stop flowing Cal
ifornia operators will face the very
expensive problem OF thrce.stage
pumping, a system unknown in tho
moro eastern fields. in order to re-
v the vast amoun of oil yet in
the sands. At the price now paid
for California crude It will be a ques
ton whether or not It Will pay 10
pump the wells. 1t may be the big
fields OF California and the Mid.Con-
tinent MAY all slump about the same
time which would reduce production
to a point where it would be INSULT
Client to meet the demands of the re.
timers, and that the resultant high
price of crude will warrant the Cali
fornlans going TO the great expense
necessary 10 pump their oil.
, 1923-06-28

r. Julius Fohs, nationally known
geologist and vice president OF the
Humphreys OIL Co., recently had a
survey made of the California oil
fields for the purpose of determining
the advisability of his company en-
terins that field for development pur-
poses While the survey was not
exhaustive 1t was sufficient in its
scope to convince Mr.. Fohs that It IL
too late for any oil man OF oil COM
pany to invade tho California terri
tory with any assurance OF success.
In the Los Angeles basin. in which
the four big new fields Of California
lie. these being Santa Fe Springs.
Huntington Beach. Long Beach and
Redondo. there could be found only
one place where there seemed n
hope whatever of getting big produc-
ton and another where the possibili-
ties were fewer and the potentialities
in the way of production even less.
Mr.. Fohs is of the opinion that in
n year from now California will be
exercising no influence on Mid.Con-
tinent crude market. He believes
that before this year is over h a
will be gone to such a degree in h
big fields of Los Angeles county that
the natural production OF the wells
will be reduced to a low figure. II not
altogether ended. The three big
fields have been and will continue to
be very closely drilled and when h
gas begins to 80 It will affect all OF
the wells in a short time.
