Utah oil and gas value tops three million dollars in 1951
Utah's petroleum industry in 1951 set multiple records with liquid hydrocarbons production reaching 2.5 billion barrels and refinery outputs near one and a half billion barrels of motor fuel and fuel oils. Proved liquid hydrocarbon reserves rose to about 322 billion barrels, while state oil and gas leases covered about 9,502 square miles. The report notes 42 producing wells averaging 798 barrels per day, with 9,400,000 barrels of new oil reserves discovered and an average well depth of 5,473 feet. Average crude price was $2.20 per barrel, and five of Utah's 28 counties produced oil. The IPAA cautions data may have discrepancies to be corrected in 1952 summaries.
