Alaska Banks 10th In Oil Production
Alaska, whose first commercial oil field was discovered in 1957, has moved up to 10th among the nation’s 32 petroleum producing states. In 1967 Alaska doubled its output from 1966, with 94 wells yielding a daily average of 155000 barrels. The Bureau predicted over 200000 barrels daily by year’s end shipping south to West Coast refineries. Oil investments in Alaska are estimated at 12 hundred million, not counting marketing. So far, companies have recovered less than a quarter of the outlay.
