CARBON OIL AREA
PROMISES RENE WE'D
SPRING ACTIVITY

Recent sale of the acreage of the
Beartooth Oil Company in the Dry
Creek field in Carbon County to
Denver independent oil operators,
and interest in the progress of the
Ohio-Montana Industrial No. l
well in the same field and the Ohio
Souders No. l, are contributing
factors to Carbon County oil field
activities that are believed to be
fore-runners of what is to come
with the advent of spring.
Rotary equipment is being moved
to the 611-acre block sold to Den
yer operators two weeks ago by
the Beartooth Oil Company.
Drilling of the Montana Indus
trial No. / well is nearing oil sand.
It is being drilled with rotary
equipment and is making hole near
the 4,000foot mark, only about
1,500 feet from oil sand. Little
trouble is being had in keeping he
hole straight and completion is ar,
ticipated within the next 80 days.
A few locations further north
Souders No. | is drilling with cahle
tools past LOO feet, following
successful completion of fishing
job.
The Ohio Oil Company is re
ported to be planning approximate
ly dozen wells in Dry Greek, ac-
cording to the Montana Oil Jour
nal, and in addition is understood
to contemplate early start on the
Fox Dome, near Red Lodge, which
adjoins Dry Creek to the west and
which is reported by biologists
to be practically Identical with
the Dry Creek field, being, in fact,
a continuation of the same fold.
Biologists believe structures IN
this area, when productive, VIII
uniformly yield oil of the same
high-gravity as Dry Creek, from
the same horizon. The high gray
ity of this oil makes it readily
saleable, even during periods of
overproduction. This factor, in the
opinion of operators, makes the
Carbon County area one of the
most promising ever opened in the
state.
