  3. Unless there are unforeseen conditions arising, we find that this will be a producing well.

  4. We would test the cuttings at thirty-eight thirty-eight (3838). We should expect the larger production in the area or depth as indicated, 4,079 to 4,082.

  5. Here we would test the sand. This as we find will be a cap where casings may be set, if needed, to cut off other disturbances above.

  6. We would look for eighty feet or more of sand, and production in same that should be a thousand - yes, more - barrels of oil per day, besides the gas that may be expected.

In THIS sand, in and below this, may be expected the production, - eighty feet or more in this sand.

  10. (Q) The volume - ? (A) (Interrupting) As indicated, better than a thousand barrels per day.

  11. (Q) Any further warning or advice? (A) These beginnings are very satisfactory. Keep the attitudes, and keep those conditions surrounding same in much the attitude that exists.
