Wheeler No. 1 Oil Well
The Wheeler No. 1 Oil
Well was the first well drilled in the Drumright- Cushing Oil Field of northeast Oklahoma, near Drumright.
The success of the well, drilled in 1912 by Thomas Baker Slick, Sr., led to the development of the Cushing field and gave impetus to the early development of Oklahoma oilfields.
The Drumright- Cushing field would go on to produce 310,000 barrels of oil a day at its peak in May 1917.
The well made Slick's name as" King of the Wildcatters".
The well was financed by Charles B. Shaffer of Chicago, who hired Slick to drill wells at the Frank Wheeler farm using cable tool drilling techniques, which could not prevent gushers or blowouts.
Three unsuccessful wells preceded the strike, which initially produced 400 barrels of high- grade oil a day from a depth of between and.
Because no mechanism existed to control the flow, the oil was diverted into pits for collection and storage.
The source of the oil was a sand zone in the Drumright Dome, a syncline.
Slick attempted to keep the strike secret, hiring armed guards, but eventually revealed the well's success in April 1912.
A dugout built for the guards remains on the site, together with a commemorative plaque.
In time, the well's pressure subsided, requiring that the oil be pumped out of the well.
The first pump was a two- cylinder gasoline- powered pump, later replaced by an electric drive.
With the reduction in pressure the well was modified for secondary recovery, using an early form of hydraulic fracturing called" sand fracturing."
As of 1980 it produced about a barrel a day, pumping four hours a day.
Oil came from three layers: the Layton layer at, the Wheeler layer at, and the Bartlesville layer at.
A pipeline connects the well to an oil- water separating unit about away, then to storage tanks.
The well is located in a small clearing about west of Drumright.
The well was still producing in 2012.
The Wheeler No. 1 well was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 14, 1983.
2001–02 UEFA Champions League second group stage
Eight winners and eight runners- up from the first group stage were drawn into four groups of four teams, each containing two group winners and two runners- up.
Teams from the same country or from the same first round group could not be drawn together.
The top two teams in each group advanced to the quarter- finals.

Heli (film)
Heli is a 2013 independent Mexican crime drama film directed by Amat Escalante and produced by Jaime Romandía.
Featuring newcomers Armando Espitia, Andrea Vergara, Linda González, and Juan Eduardo Palacios, the film premiered in competition for the Palme d' Or at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival.
Escalante won the Best Director award at the ceremony.
While being appreciative of the film's technical aspects, film critics were divided in their opinion of the film itself.
" Heli" was selected to represent Mexico at the 86th Academy Awards for Best Foreign Language Film, but it was not nominated.
Well World series
The Well World series is a series of science fiction novels by Jack L. Chalker.
It involves a planet- sized supercomputer known as the Well of Souls that builds our reality on top of an underlying one of greater complexity but smaller size.
The computer was built by a now- extinct race, the Markovians, who developed the Well of Souls with the goal of creating a new species that would transcend their own.
The Well World is the planet that houses the Well of Souls, and it exists within the original Markovian reality.
Its surface was used as an experimental site where the Markovians tested their species designs before sending the successful ones into the new universe to populate planets.
Humans are one of many such designed species who now live in the" real" world.
During the time period of the novels, the Well World has been abandoned and left on its own for an unknown length of time.
The books mainly follow a mysterious character known as Nathan Brazil, who has an( initially) unknown connection to the Well World.
The books are adventures that follow Brazil and a changing cast of secondary characters through a series of visits to the Well World over a period of hundreds( and millions) of years.

The Well-paid
The Well- paid( in Spanish La bien pagada) is a Mexican drama film directed by Alberto Gout.
It was filmed in 1948 and starring María Antonieta Pons and Víctor Junco.
Cone of depression
A cone of depression occurs in an aquifer when groundwater is pumped from a well.
In an unconfined aquifer( water table), this is an actual depression of the water levels.
In confined aquifers( artesian), the cone of depression is a reduction in the pressure head surrounding the pumped well.
When a well is pumped, the water level in the well is lowered.
By lowering this water level, a gradient occurs between the water in the surrounding aquifer and the water in the well.
Because water flows from high to low water levels or pressure, this gradient produces a flow from the surrounding aquifer into the well.
As the water flows into the well, the water levels or pressure in the aquifer around the well decrease.
The amount of this decline becomes less with distance from the well, resulting in a cone -shaped depression radiating away from the well.
This, in appearance, is similar to the effect one sees when the plug is pulled from a bathtub.
This conical- shaped feature is the cone of depression.
