Fifth Land Surprise and Oil Field Growth Report
The McDonald field production jumped to 26 500 barrels yesterday from 24 000 the day before as three more wells joined the output. Weitengel farm No 6 struck 50 barrels per hour in the fifth sand, with nearby wells producing 35 and 20 barrels hourly, while numerous other wells and rigs advance across Wood land Forest Oakdale and Willow Grove areas. A bear-market mood followed, sparked by rumors of a 100 000 barrel Russian strike and broader oil-price declines.
