LS: Now, you have before you the lands located in Uinta
County, Wyoming, known as Sections 13, 23, 24, 25, 26,
Township 15, Range 118 West. Also Sections 7, 8, 17, 18, 19,
Township 15, Range 117 West. You will give the conditions of
this land for the production of oil, and answer the following
questions:
Where are best locations for shallow wells?
What depth and what production?
Where best locations for deeper Bear River sands?
What depth, what production and depth of water strata?
What, if any, of above property would prove unproductive
in shallow and Bear River sands?
EC: Yes, we have these lands here.
Now, we find there is much of this territory as given that
will produce in the shallow sands, and also in the deeper
ones. This in the shallow is not all under-laid with the
deeper sands. In some instances and places we find the lower
sands much deeper and more productive. In others it is
pinched out entirely.
In the upper strata or sands the deep ranges from 385 to 550,
depending upon the locations, and in the distances is the
stratum in which the sands are not all in the rolling or hill
lands, and the locations would change. This in the South and
East being the better for shallow production, and that
farther to the North and East in the deeper or lower sands.
This we would find would necessarily mean specific locations
to give water stratas, the general surface or first strata
in the general way being from 39 to 68, the next in the
125-215 deeper strata sands, and the larger production being
in 1820-2229, and productions there reaching to 2 to 7
thousand barrels. In the upper from 5 to 79 barrel
production.
