Uintah Basin oil activity rises with new findings and leases
In the Uintah Basin over the past week more than 150000 acres of oil lands changed hands including 18000 acres in T10S R18E Uintah County transferred to Carter Oil Company by Morgan Walton Oils. Carter plans unitization as Sinclair and Texas Oil also hold acreage. George Well No. 1 C NE NW Sec. 21 TSS R23E on the Ridge anticline showed a 50 minute test at 2603 2625 feet suggesting a possible commercial producer. Gas shows on the Clear Creek structure and Last Chance structure in Emery County bolster prospects. Sun Oil seismographs a 42840 acre block amid unitization talks. Philips reports 2670 ft of free oil at Leeton No 1 in Uintah County. Union Sulphur options 16000 acres in southern Uintah County for seismographic work.
