Wildcat Tests Spark Oil Prospects Across Lamesa Region
A wildcat test 11 miles southeast of Lamesa opens Cisco reef production near the Ackerly field in Dawson County. Continental Oil reports a calculated daily flow of 460 barrels of 41 gravity oil from perforations between 8,684 and 8,766 feet based on a 230 barrel 12 hour gauge through a 21 to 64 inch choke. The No 1 Gonzell Hoge well sits 42 miles north of active units in the Ackerly area and 2.5 miles northwest of marginal production there. Additional drillings near Yoakum and John H Gibson survey blocks target San Andres and Devonian/Mississippian horizons with planned depths to 12,500 feet.
