MISSION, Nov. iT.-Hidalgo
cOunty's new samfordyce OIL field
looked forward to completion Of two
new producers during the weekend
and others next week from five tests
now on the sand. -Four tests were
drilling or attempting 70 complete
while four more were rigging up.
X. d. Harrison ct ais No. ] Fran
cisco p. Guerra, In Tract II, Por-
cion 81, about $500 feet east Of
discovery, was still being watched
as the next probable producer. It
was slowly cleaning itself on la
inch tubing choke under tubing
working pressure Of 1,100 pounds
and cloeed-in casing pressure Of
600 pounds. 1t was making some oil
considerable gas and drilling water
from sand at 2.734-40 feet. 1t is the
most important test I'm the field at
the present time. apparently assur-
ing an eastern extension OF major
Importance.
King-woods Oil company's NO.
/ Francisco b. Guerra, I'm Tract
254, Porcion 80, about 1900 feet
north Of discovery, was stin clean
ing through 5-32-inch tubing choke
Friday and was making more oil
than previously and considerable
gas as well as small quantities Of
drilling water. Tubing working
pressure was 1.150 pounds and clos
ed-in casing pressure was 400
pounds. Operators said the test
probably would make a small oil
well.
Southern limits Of the field were
rather definitely set during the
week. King Woods Oil company

about 1000 feet west of discovery,
began making salt water early this
week while cleaning itself. Saturat-

acres Of Tract 254. Porcion 40, about
1000 feet northeast Of discovery, at
3.647 feet this week set &C least a
temporary boundary or drilling IN
that direction. Nothing but gas at
2.737-43 feet showed either on drill
stem test or Schlumberger test run
early this week.
One of the most important out
post wells now drilling In the i'm
mediate vicinity of the discovery
well Is the Heep Oil Corporations
No. 1 w. n. jackson, in Tract 21s,
Porcion 40, abort 1000 feet south
east OF discovery. Finding salt wa
ter IN the Samfordyce sand, the test
has been contracted to 90 to q
maximum OF $500 feet for q test
OF the Cockfield formations, bet
ter known as the Conroe or retths
sands. It Is now drilling below S,s4O
feet.
Two new tests cored the sand
early this week and have set ana
cemented casing.

shale at 2 1851 feet. The satura-
ton was picked up at 2,79l-97 and
was set and cemented az
2,7o3 feet. This core also showed
excellent saturation.

discovery, during the week end.
After salt water began flowing from
a total depth Of 2.808 feet. 1t was
decided to set q cement plug In the
lower three feet OF the hole ia an
attempt to shut off the water. Re-
completion will be attempted after
the plug is drilled. The test made
an excellent showing on drill stem
