Thermopolis Cat Creek Deep Test Signals Drilling Push
Work resumes in the Thermopolis Cat Creek field as plans call for sinking at least three new wells and a deep test in the heart of production. The deep test in 10-15-29 follows a 1900 foot well that produced water, with speculation that the field’s productive sands lie further east and deeper.

Kevin Sunburst field ranks second in Western States
The Kevin Sunburst field in northern Montana stands second in completions and new-well production in the Rocky Mountain district for last month, when Salt Creek and Teapot Dome are counted as one field. In Wyoming there were 25 completions and 6 315 barrels of initial production with 30 rigs in Kevin Sunburst and 19 drilling. In Montana Kevin-Sunburst led with 11 of 13 completions and 935 barrels of 1 185 new production while the field held 19 of 28 drilling wells. The report also notes a public summary of operations and a raid-related stock theft, and recalls Mr. Frith’s long Army service against western Indians and his roles in campaigns around 1873-77.
