Oil Firm Leases Lands for Sunbeam Area Test Well

The Carrier Off Company, active in northwestern Colorado, has leased lands from Utah-Colorado Land and Livestock and Al Hurd near the Snake River about 10 miles west of Sunbeam. Two geologists are exploring the structure with a probable test this summer. The Dry Mountain region lies about 12 miles west, with faults crossing the drill area. Interest in the Craigo-Noffat County district grows after recent finds at Powdyr Wash, 30 miles north, spurring renewed drilling in the Anderson-Kerr program and other tests in the Powder Wash area including a Wildcat test on Vermilion Creek. Local figures, including E. S. Shaw, are coordinating siting and movement toward these new prospects.
