TANKER SHORTAGE
MAY BOOST PRICES

The shortage of tankers will
shortly make itself felt in the price
of crude oil and products, in the
opinion of J. Doctor Of Mackay &
Co, IA Wall Street who, in writing
to the Journal on another matter
comments:
I'VE here in the east are quite
concerned over the water transpor-
tation problems, particularly as they
apply to petroleum and its products.
Practically all of the gasoline, heat
ing oil and crude oil consumed in
the Atlantic seaboard states is
transported by tanker, which is
much cheaper. In the event the
tanker situation becomes anywhere
near as acute as some experts pre-
dict, it will probably be a question
of getting supplies, not prices.
Malcolm S. MacKay- of MacKay
& Co. is the owner of much of the
land on MacKay structure in south
ern Montana where R. c. Tarrant
has developed black oil production.
The New York Journal and Ameri-
can recently recommended MacKay
as a candidate for selection as a
governor of the New York Stock
Exchange.

new TESTS
STARTING IN
MIDWAY AREA

Resumption of prospecting in the
Midway district, between Kelvin and
Cut Bank fields was in prospect
this week as Pfabe & Engleking
moved a rig onto their State lease
in NEA NEA 34-35-4W, a quar-
ter of a mile southwest of their
Enneberg discovery well.
The Enneberg well has been
standing idle for two years, and
pumping resumed this week to
bring back the gas for use in drill
ing the State we'll. The well be
gan flowing and it flows after about
four hours of pumping each day.
The Midway district has thus far
proven an enigma, with battling
water problem. The Enneberg well
flowed when completed but develop
ed water. A well in Section $50
4W likewise turned to water and
the Lund-Dahlgren well, half mile
south and east of the Enneberg
had oil but did not respond to aci-
dization. A fourth well two miles
northwest, in Section 28-35-4W,
had unusually high gravity oil at
the top of the lime, after apparent
ly crossing a fault, but it could not
be made commercial, and was a
bandoned.
Operators generally believe that
somewhere in this district pool
of high gravity oil will he develop
ed, possibly similar to the Rimrock
pool three miles east.

TURNER VALLEY
PRESSURE LOSS is
DEEMED SERIOUS

Tremendous economic loss and
serious harm to Turner Valley field
is resulting from wartime over-pro-
duction, according TO petroleum en-
gineers who have studied the de-
cline and pressure charts in recent
weeks
The field is now producing 49,
600 barrels per day which is con-
siderably more than good oil
fields practice would permit. The
field could make as much as
$4,000 Dbl. per day but, one OBJ
server remarked, 1t could not con-
tinue at that rate for more than a
few days as the bottom hole pres
sure OF the field is already down to
an alarming point. Continued pro-
duction of the field at $4,000 Dbl.
during the coming summer months
will lead to early exhaustion of this
pressure. and even more rapid de-
cline.
Turner Valley production has
been increased. due to the emer-
gency, from 22,345 Dbl. per day in
December and 24,335 Dbl. per day
in January up to $4,000 Dbl. per
day but since new compilations do
not offset the field-wide decline, It
is feared that a much more rapid
decline will hit the field before
the end of the year.

STEVEvILLE is
BIG PRODUCER

The second producing well in
Steveville field, Alberta, 100 miles
north of Montana's Sweetgrass
Hills, is getting its oil from the
basal Cretaceous sands and not
from the top of the lime which is
the producing horizon of the No.
2 well of Standard OF British Co
lumbia.
This word was brought this
week by Montana oil scouts. The
No. 3 well, completed at $3.50
feet. is diagonally across 40 acres
from the No. which had an ini-
tial of $40 Dbl. of oil and 1880
600 cubic feet of gas per day. pro-
ducing from the lime contact. The
No. 2 is in LISD 3, Sec. 13-2O-12W4.
The No. well apparently struck
either an unconformity or a fault.
Casing was set in the lime and gun
perforation revealed that the oil
is coming from the Kootenai sands
which apparently rest on the Madi-
son lime, with the Ellis or Jurasslc
formations missing.
The tests indicate the No VIII

CALIFORNIA
GROUP GETS
GOOD WELL

An east-and-west extent of three
miles was established for the Rim
rock high gravity oil pool of West
Kelvin field with the completion
this week of a good commercial
we'll in Section 31-35N-3W by j.
F. Lally and associates Of San
Francisco, operating in Kelvin field
as Kelvin Land Co. The Leach No
4 well in center SEX NEA 81
35-3W, had an initial of 20 bar
rels per day and has been on pro-
ductiOn for one week. 1t is the
westernmost well in the Rimrock
pool.
This well had a showing OF oil
at the top of the Madison lime at
1872 and it was acidized with 500
gallons of acid and 800 gallons of
water. 1t took the acid easily, in
dicating a good porous lime. 1t de-
veloped considerable water, as do
all wells in this pool, but the water
showed signs of decline at the end
Of the first week OF constant pump
ing on the beam. The we'll will be
completely cleaned before the ma
chine is moved off according to
NJ. w. Cassidy who is in charge.
The rig will be be moved to a
new location in Sc a NWA Section

north half of the section.
Another completion in the high
gravity pool was recorded by Twin
Fields Oil company of Great Falls.
Government No. is a small pro-
Queer, estimated at around six
barrels. 1t had Madison contact
at 1890 to 1893 and was treated
with 500 gallons of acid. 1t is a
short distance west from the No. /
which made all water after acidiza-
ton but is now making 20 bar
rels of oil with little water.
