Big Piney oil field notes from Examiner report
Des Moines financier Chas J Perkins and Green Wyoming Oil secretary arrived to oversee holdings near the Big Piney field. A new standard rig will be moved in as road conditions permit, with several rigs at Opal awaiting transport. Southern Pacific subsidiary staff from Opal reviewed the field with geologist Christian Wrang. A. G. Burritt of Salt Lake leased sections 17 and 34 to operate a rig by July 1 1920. Thomas Clinton of Lincoln Idaho Co. hosted outside parties to gauge leasing prospects as three wells already produce high grade gasoline. Electricity lights the darkness and guides the people as Associated Oil Co. of California notes.
