does not intend to discontinue the
purchase of oil from any of it's
present connections, Mr.. Johnson
stated, although 1T is a fact that
some of it's contracts expire in July.
These contracts were made, he said
at a time when the Brftish-Ameri-
can had to have definite assurance
of a supply of crude and when
the future of Cut Bank was in
definite. The expiring contracts
win be replaced with division
orders.
ut will continue to be the policy
of Toronto Pipeline to take 100
per cent of the production from all
leases on which it has connections"
he said. I'VE do not expect to
extend over too wide an area and
we will make connections only with
such properties as necessary to
furnish us with our annual require
ments and to that end we will buy
100 per cent of the oil througho out
the year. During the past winter we
have continued to run all our leases
at 100 per cent and we have stor-
ed some 100000 barrels"
Mr.. johnson revealed that Brit
ish-American is not refining Tur-
ner Valley oil in either of its ac-
tive Canadian refineries. While 1T
has considerable production in Tur-
ner Valley, thls production is being
sold to Imperial Oil company for
use in its Calgary refinery. The
cost of Turner Valley crude plus a
rail haul TO Coutts is so much |
greater than the cost OF Cut Bank |
