Preliminary Report on Belly River Oil Prospects in Montana
Geologist Gamaliel Avany reviews Belly River Oil and Development Co lands in Teton County Montana near the Alberta border. He finds evidence of oil in Fort Benton and Dakota formations and estimates drilling to 700 to 1200 feet could produce oil, noting gas shows and oil sands in the Fort Benton group. The report traces Cretaceous oil genesis and cites analyses from A. Switt Current Field and Prof. Frick confirming high quality crude, with field depths around 825 to 1000 feet and varying drift thicknesses.
