This it o Humble well in th# Anohuoc,
Texas, field The first well, drilled in W35,
found oil at 8778 feet. Geological and
geophysical work which preceded drill-
ing consumed 6 years. 427 wells hov«
been drilled, of which 3S7 ore now pro*
ducing oil Present production
is 30,108 barrels doily. With
•he present knowledge of the
field, it it possible that addi-
tional tandt may be found
at a greater depth.

meet your needs in 1959...-
we have to start now!
Most of the oil you are using today was found more than
ten years ago. It takes about that long to explore and develop
potential resources to their full, efficient capacity.
First, you have to find the oil. Geologists and gcophysicists spend
months of scientific study before they pronounce an area a "prospect/'j
It takes more months to drill exploratory wells; and if they find oil,
it takes years to drill the other wells that define the field, establish,
the amount of oil in it, anfl bring it into full production.
Today, this year, continuously, we must develop the oil resources
we may need — without notice — on some future tomorrow.'
In spite of minor fluctuations in demand, the need for oil has
increased steadily over the years; and every now and again,'
there is a sudden, heavy, unexpected need for additional
supplies, like the demand for fuel oil on the Eastern seaboard
during the cold winter of 1947-fl8. Furthermore, we must face
the fact that in this atomif ?ra, in this day of the jet airplane and
the long-range submarine, the U. S. oil industry must prepare
now to meet the needs of any future national emergency.
That's why the American oil industry is undertaking the heavy
costs of exploring the Tidelands of the continental shelf in
order to bring the oil fields that geologists think are there
into full production now. Rest assured that the oil will not
be wasted; on the contrary, it will be ready, for instant use
when you and the nation need it.
