In western Pennsylvania the Leesburg area shows a gradual oil revival with about 100 pumping wells producing an average 360 barrels daily. The field lies north of New Castle, extending toward Franklin and Moravia fields, with many companies active and several new drills planned this summer. Wells are small, usually under 12 feet thick, but maintain steady output and are valued for staying power rather than rapid depletion.
