Texas, the nation’s leading oil
producer, has yielded more
than 21 billion barrels of oil
during the past 79 years of
recorded production, according
to the Texas Mid-Continent Oil
& Gas Association.
This has meant a statewide
distribution of income which
currently averages about $3.4
billion a year. With 207 of the
state’s 254 counties producing
crude oil, each section of the
state is marked by several
prolific fields. Texas daily oil
production is more than 1.1
million barrels.
“More investment is needed
to find new oil fields to replace
security.
Van Zandt County, which has
had recorded production since
1929, has had a total crude oil
output of 335.162.258 barrels up
to the beginning of 1969. Van
