COAST REFINERY
BUYS KEVIN OIL

Word was received here last
week that the Hursh-Sinclair re-
finery at Spokane has contracted
for the entire output Of the Big
West Oil company's wells. The
Big West has two producing
wells and it is reported that the
third will soon be placed on the
pump. The price paid by the
Spokane refinery was not learned
but it is understood to have
carried substantial bonus over
the posted price. Because of the
needs of independent refineries
in the field, a premium ranging
up to 25 cents a barrel is being
paid producers.

OPTIMISM IS ORDER OF DAY HERE

Fall drilling activities in the north
field show decided contrast wher
compared with development work at
this time last year. In looking over
the amount of work being done in the
field during the past week the fact
that there are 40 rigs working, either
just completing, rigging up or drill
ing, stands out very strongly when it
is considered that it is the first of No
vember, that this has been very poor
year for the oil business, and that the
larger companies such as the Ohio,
California, Carter, etc. have done just
as little toward drilling up their acre
age as possible and still hold their
leases.
That they have to put on a very ac-
tive drilling campaign next year in
order to hold or validate their leases
is matter Of record in the court
house. Exactly what amount of work
will be done next year in the field will
be hard to estimate, but if the present
activity is any criterion at all, it will
be one Of the most active years this
field has ever seen.
With the exception of some 20 to 25
wells, all the holes drilled so far this
year have been drilled by Independent
companies, so that allowing them the
same next year there will be in the
neighborhood of $50 to 400 wells
drilled during 1925, with the larger
companies workin. This is a rough es-
innate but at the same time conserva-
tive, and if the price of oil goes up,
as it is almost bound to do, this esti-
mate is bound to be very low.
At the present time there are sew
eral different prices for oil in the
field, due to the fact that the indie
pendent refneries are having hard
time getting enough oil to supply their
plants. The field is producing over
5000 barrels per day, but this does
not begin to take care of the demand,
and the brightest part of that is that
should the production be increased to
10000 barrels per day, it would be but
a short time and with little expense
before the different refneries could in
crease their capacities to handle con-
The Kevin review. [volume] (Kevin, Mont.) 1922-1929, 1924-11-06

siderably more than this.
The posted price (by the Ohio Oh
Coy, is 80 cents barrel at the pres
ent time, while the international re-
finery at Sunburst is paying 81. One
operator selling to another refinery
gets 25 cent premium plus the two
per cent shrinkage charge, another
gets $130 straight, while another has
been offered S1.50 barrel at the well.
This last is for Sunburst sand oil
that runs some AZ degrees Baume. 1t
seems to be only a question of time
when the Sunburst sand oil will be
segregated, and when this happens
there will be two posted prices, the
| Sunburst sand oil commanding price
much nearer what it is really worth.
This will naturally not occur until
such time as the production for this
sand reaches a point where they can
afford to run it separately. Some com
panies such as the Homestake, Pot
latch and Beardslee are already start
ing after this production, and next
year will undoubtedly see much ac-
tivity in Sunburst sand areas. The
fact that the Sunburst sand oil con-
tains no water, is considerably higher
in gravity, and the offset wells are
fairly sure of production, makes it
very attractive to the operator
That the production from this sand
will hold up much better than the
Ellis is seen from the fact that Sun
burst sand wells have increased when
pumped. The Homestake-Reibe No. 2
is now making 1870 barrels and it came
in for rs barrels, while Securities
Stannard No. 1 is making 25 barrels
against initial production Of Is. The
Jones-White is making so barrels, and
it only made 25 barrels the first few
days. This is not merely a natural in
crease, but is due to the wells being
cleaned out when necessary and
swabbed each time they are cleaned
out. 1t seems that swabbing the wells
opens up the drainage channels in the
sand and allows the oil to flow more
freely into the hole, therefore increas-
ing production.

OIL INDUSTRY IS
JUST BEGINNING
Edwin F. Hyland Dealer in Oil
Leases Expresses Opinion on
Oil Industry in Montana

Edwin F. Hyland, head of Edwin F
Hyland & Co., of this city, brokers il
oil leases and royalties, has returned
to Great Falls, after business triI
to Kansas City, Tulsa, Okla, and Los
Angeles, with renewed faith in Mon
tana and the belief that the oil indus
try OF this state is only in it's infancy
that it will not begin to hit it's stride
for several years and will be many
times larger in the next 10 years as
1t IS now. Mr.. Hyland said that his
aim is now to build his organization
into the biggest in the state dealing
in royalties and leases.
"The oil business is improving
steadily and better prices are expect
ed in the spring. Production has
dropped off at the rate of 100000 bar
rels a day for the last few weeks, with
the consequent betterment in price.
The old winter bugaboo of the refners
has been broken at last and they have
an all year market now with the
adoption of oil for fuel many of the
big buildings of the larger cities and
greatly increased number of residen-
tial installations. The use of oil for
fuel has become a recognized factor
In the oil industry and is increasing
the demand throughout the country.
"By next spring I look for the oil
business to be normal again with the
resulting beterment in prices in the
Kelvin field as well as elsewhere" Mr..
Hyland said.
Mr.. Hyland devoted much of his
time in Tulsa to inspection of the
holdings Of the Imperiaax Royalties
company, for which he announced pay
ment Of it's fftieth divident on Nov.
80. It started in 1920 and has now re-
turned 95 per cent in cash on the in
