Several new wells were com pleted the past few days, but were not put on the pump because all storage facilities have been used There art about 5.000 barrels or oil in storage In the field now. Tb# oil men of the aectlon are locking for additional storage facilities, so that work can con tinue. One completion in tne snauow poo; and a new deep test In an effort to extend the deep area to the northeast are the only iitei eeting developments. Tarver it Nance's No. 5 Kei*y Bass was completed at a total depth of 444 fret during the past work in the south end of the shal low field and will easily make as much oil on the pump as either of the firm's other good producers, about 80 barrels daily. Location is 900 feet from the west and 450 teet from the north lines of the southwest quarter of the southeast quarter of section 7, porciones 75 78-77. The well is located between T-N No. 3 K-B. a 750.000-cublc foot gainer and No. 4 K-B. now flowing about 80 barrels daily. The well cannot be put on the pump for a test because of overflowing storage tanks. Los Olmcs Oil Sc Oas Company's No 25 Kelsey-Bass, has not yet been placed on the pump because of lack of storage. There is no doubt, in the opinion of Rio Grande operators, that this well * ;U prove to be the biggest pro ducer in Starr county. This test blew oil over a radius of 400 feet when drilled in. The valve has been opened periodically ever since completion and the heavy gas pressure invariably sprays the entire area immediately surround ing the well. Estimates place Its probable production at 150 to 250 barrels daily. The new deep test Is to be known as Jeffrles-Lambert Drilling Com pany's No. 1 Starr Count/ Cattle Company and will be located 150 feet from the north and 150 lee* from the west lines of block 2*. portion 89, Ancient Jurisdiction of Camargo. The rotary outfit used to drill the Johnson or “School house" test in the deep area Is be ing moved to the location. Drilling w.U begin the coming week. Another deep test of consider able interest will be the Jim Cloua. Inc.. No. l Sanchez in survey 34*. Ancient Jurisdiction of Mier. Loca tion has been made in the center of survey 344 on property known as the Sanches Ranch. The lease Includes surveys 340 and 343 as well as 344.
