Oil Spending Seen Rising in 1972 Amid Environmental Delays
The Oil and Gas Journal forecasts U.S. capital spending at about 8.72 billion dollars in 1972, up 1.5 percent from 1971 as delayed environmental issues curb offshore leasing on federal tracts and North Slope activity, and slow pipeline layings amid uncertain discoveries.

February crucial month for 1971 drilling lows since 1935
Houston AP reports U S drilling activity in 1971 fell to its lowest since 1935 except during World War II. January 1972 shows improved prospects with rotary rig counts down only 76 from 1,184 to 1,108. Analysts warn a February slump could dampen 1972 hopes.

U S not running out of petroleum says drilling executive
Warren L. Baker, executive vice president of the International Association of Drilling Contractors, argues the United States faces an oil and gas shortage due to lack of financial incentives rather than depleted supplies. He cites unexplored Gulf coast regions, Alaska prospects, and new fields in Colorado and Texas as potential future production if incentives improve. He notes price controls since 1954 have hindered development.
