ductiOn SEEMED much more attractive
than anything we could get here i'm Mon
tana, we were not able to get a clear
comparison.
We found local operators figuring well
costs against the amount of oil con-
tanned in an acre of ground. In Kelvin,
as an example, the early practice was one
well to about 4 " acres. Good operators
would figure how much ONE acre would
LIKELY purOduce, TO determine the prob
able profit. This is and always was
universal practice among competent pet
rOIeum engineers. When a petroleum en-
gineer told us that he estimated that
field would produce 10000 barrels to the
acre, we instantly thought I'm terms of
ownership of 10 OF 10000 barrels, or
100 barrels. Then we started turning
barrels into dollars which allowed
an AVERAGE price of 81 per barrel for
oil. The price of oil i'm Montana and in
America has average ABOVE that fig
ure, SO it is safe basis.
Thus when we bought 1% royalty on
a tract that we thought MIGHT contain
5000 barrels of oil per acre, we figured
that we bought oil I'm underground stOr-
age that might amount to so bbIs., worth
$50. So we were instantly aware that
when we paid IS for one per cent royalty
on one acre, we had chance to receive
$50 worth of oil for each So invested.
The next thing was to get some idea
of how much oil the AVERAGE acre
might contain. We spent nights and
days with petroleum engineers whose
life work was the study of oil reserves.
We found that we could not Judge a
LIME field by the record of a SAND
field. The man who went into Kelvin
Sunburst, as an example, with Cat Creek
reserves as yard-stick, was doomed TO
disappointment.
We arrived at basis of Judgment by
getting the guess of every competent pet
rOleum engineer in Kevin-Smburst field.
This included Vic Hendrickson, geoIo-
gist for the O'Neil's, Tom Romano, geoIo-
logist for Texas-Pacific Coal & OIL; Dor
sey Hager, GrenviIIe G. Howard, geoIo-
lOgist for the Sunburst, Sammy Adair

SUCCESS IN OIL HISTORY
REDUCED TO COMMON SENSE

This organization has secured for dis
tributiOn among it's members and particu-
IarIy new members the newly published
booklet 1.-THE Oil Royalty" written by
J. f. AshOff, Jr., of Tulsa. This follows
another new publication, written by
Andrew r. Rowley, formerly editor of
the Oil & Gas journal, who discusses
modern drilling and production practices
as applied to royalty values.
We are always very much interested
in new publications regarding royalties
and like to place them in the hands of
our members. We were among the first
to print a publication on the subject of
royalties and our phrasOlogy has been
largely followed throughout the country.
The Importance of royalties was not re-
cOgnized by the public at large. Now
we are just beginning to receive new
publications, by competent authors, on
the subject of royalties
Fifteen years ago, when we started
buying royalties, few people in the country
knew anything about royalties. We had
to learn as we went along and because
we had to start with primer lessons, we
had to think and talk OF royalties in the
simplest terms. We had little TO guide
us. In the Midcontinent, they talked a
different language. They talked about
royalty acres" and dealt in fractions,
whereas we thought only in terms of the
decimal system. The NIidcOntinent sys-
tenn quickly gave us a headache. The
first time we were offered one One-hun-
dred-an-twenty-eight of one eighth of
the landowners eighth, on q MidcOnti-
nent tract, we had no idea how much
oil we would be buying. It was hard to
reduce those terms to oil.
In other words, we could see only one
thing In royalties: the purchase of oil
in underground storage. When we
bought one per cent royalty on a farm
we knew that we were the owners of
one barrel out Of every 100 barrels
under that ground. Thus, if the farm
contained 100000 barrels of oil, our
share was 5000 barrels. If the farm
contained 100000 barrels, our share
was 10000 barrels. 1t required no COM
putting machine or even pencil and paper
to know instantly what share we were
getting when we bought a royalty.
Then we encountered the royalty acre.
in the MidcOntinent. Early Midcontinent
quotations we received spoke only in
terms of the cost of a royalty acre" They
did mot even tell how many acres in the
farm. If we bought a royalty acre, we
got the EQUIVILANT of 12M per cent
royalty on one acre. But naturally,
the royalty had TO be spread over q farm
Of anywhere from 40 acres to n thousand
acres. So again we were confused by
the NidcOntinent practices and while It
was probably all very plain to those
familiar with MidcOntinent fields, we
quickly learned that even though the Mid
continent royalties, with their big pro-

other farm in the field is ridiculous.
No human brain can comprehend the To-
cation of a crack or fissure In the lime
such as was accidentally tapped by the
Baker No. 8 which has produced more oil
than should have been contained i'm a
cavern 10 times the accepted drainage
area for one well. We wanted only q
general idea what we might expect from
the AVERAGE acre, and invested all OF
our faith I'm the LAW OF AVERAGES.
No man can make an intelligent invest
ment unless he has some general idea
of how much oil he may get for his
money.
Kevin-Sunburst field is One-sixth de-
veIoped and acidization has just arrived.
But before acidization could reVolutiOnize
the production history of the field, the
AVERAGE developed acre had already
produced within $2.37 per cent per acre
of the composite estimate ON which we
based our purchases from the beginning
as shown by Official figures compiled
by the State Of Montana.
1t was very apparent to us from the
first that we needed a minimum ratio of
POSSIBLE return. Going back to our
primer method of thinking we decided
that If we invested 10 cents per barrel in
oil that win sell for at least 81 per
barrel, we would make no mistake. That
left us in the position that il the tract
proved sub-nOrmaI, producing only HALF
the average, we still had chance to get
so cents back for every 10 cents invested.
Since those days we have learned a
great deal and have arrived at the point
where we can read technical articles on
petroleum reserves but the more we learn
the more convinced we are that success
in the oil industry, either for an opera
tor or a royalty investor, is based on
on the history of other fields and of the
It is refreshing to get the viewpoint of
someone outside our own ranks, and that
is the reason we have bought copies of
Mr.. RowIand's publications for our mem
bers. In the case of 1.-THE OH Royalty
we have prepared a bulletin which will
accompany this booklet, showing the diff
ference between the BTidcontinent method
of figuring-using fractiOns--and the
Rocky Mountain usage of the decimal
system.
This booklet points out that landowners
or their assigns receive approximately
$500, OOO, 900 per year I'm lease rentals,
bonuses and royalties. 1t described roy
altfes by questions and answers.
