Oil Field Subsidence at Sour Lake Disturbs Texas Gulf
Beaumont Texas October reports a portion of the Sour Lake oil field sank by about 19 acres, altering production. A well previously yielding 10 barrels daily now produces 250, while another well spouting salt water rose from 150 to 259 barrels after the fissure formed. Geologists observe the 15 foot depth as the notable feature amid similar Gulf area events. The Goose Creek incident nearby prompted a Texas suit over tidal land ownership, which the state lost.
