States already are being devel-
oped. Extensive surveys have
been carried out by plane, by
boat, and even by diving bell off
the coasts of Texas, louisiana,
Florida and California. Numerous
wells, some as much as 80 miles
off-shore, have been drilled from
huge floating platforms. And the
bayous and swamps of Louisiana
are being explored by crews in
boats and in motorized marsh
buggies having rubber tires half
again as tall as a man.
So far, the u. S. has consumed
almost two trillion gallons of oil.
So far, explorers have located
over a trillion gallons more and
earmarked it for future use. Now,
they are hunting for an additional
two trillion gallons which lie
somewhere beneath our soil

and each year an army of eX-
plOrers tolls to meet that demand,
plus the additional quantities to
build up the nations proved re-
serves.
There is no magic formula for
the discovery of petroleum. Like
gold, it is where you find it."
Formulas that eliminate some of
the guesswork have been 'devel-
oped, but it remains true that
"only the drill can find OIL" Four
fifths of all exploratory wells
turn out to be dry holes. And
only one well in A locates a
profitable new field.
A whole host of scientists scour
the countryside constantly for
spots where oil is likely to be
found. Biologists and other spe-
cialists make use of the most adj
vanced scientific devices-such as
the flying magnetometer and the
SS1SilOSi dpll ~ SI1dIt uIiaSA-
ground rock structures.
Research goes on continually to
refine the existing devices and
to adapt the spectograph, X-rays,
radar and atomic isotopes to
underground exploration. Such
things will be needed in the ex-
ploration of the newest frontier
the continental shelf that extends
into the seas from a few to
several hundred miles from the
shores of the u. S. This area of
ten million square miles may con-
tain the greatest petroleum re-
sources yet encountered.
