MADISON LIME TEST PLANNED ON APEX OF ELK BASIN FIELD CASPER. —Most interesting news of the week in Wyoming oil circles is announcement that Stanolind is planning a Madison lime stone test on the apex of the Tensleep sand producing area, by deepening a well now producing from the Tensleep sand horizon. The well to be deepened, accord- ♦ Ing to the report, is on the Wyo ming side of the line, less than a quarter of a mile south of the boun dary line, in NE SE NE 24-58N 100W. The entire field is now unitized and Stanolind will conduct the drill ing as the unit operator. If Madison lime producion is found, it will open up the third dra matic chapter m the history' of this two-state field. The fifst chapter was written a quarter of a century ago, when high gravity oil and large quantities of gas were produced from wells that went only to the Frontier sand depths of around 1750 feet. The field then languished until 1943, when deep drilling, in excess of 5000 feet, resulted in trie bringing in of an unbroken chain of pro ducers from the Tensleep sand stone. The Tensleep was found to be gently folded than the over lying Frontier, with the result that the area of Tensleep sand produc tion is much greater than that of the Frontier. Whether the condition will be accentuated with depth and whether the Madison, if oil-bearing, will yield crude over a much wider area than the Tensleep is something still to be determined. The deep test planned by Carter, as far as is known, will be the first attempt in this field to ascertain oil possibilities of the Madison lime. , at more The full Wyoming report: Airport Area (Natrona Gouty) Coaunerclal OU Rnblsh No. 1 NE NE SE 36-35N-S0W Waiting on orders, 3034.
