Treasure State activity shows steady oil field progress
A survey of eastern Montana oil regions reports ongoing development amid mixed production. In Fergus county the California well near Cat Creek shows 300 barrels daily but may drop to 76 to 100. Musselshell Valley gains attention as Fifty-Six plans sizable acreage. Roundup Absaroka drilling nears 1,000 feet, while in Lake Basin Stillwater the Record Petroleum well is abandoned and moved for Eagle sands testing. Kevin-Sunburst reports three new wells from 80 to 200 barrels, with Halter No.1, Western-Pet-X Kenney No.1, and Hecla-Sunburst Beaupre No.1 producing.
