Burkburnett Field Extends South with New Wells
Burkburnett field activity shifts south as the Burk-Waggoner and South Burkburnett pools add two 1,000-barrel wells and new pay zones. The Hansard farm tests on the 1,280-foot sand await completion with estimated production up to 200 barrels but water trouble curbs optimism. In the Kemp-Munger-Allen district two completions remain: the original well and Humble. The Midina tract near block 819 yields two strong wells, while the Waggoner district sees revived interest as western and southern extensions approach, with several producers reporting 125 to 100 barrels and new strata at 1,400 feet in the Roller area. In Tillman county, Panhandle O wind Refining and Gypsy tests near Testerman standardize, while K-M-A sector progress remains limited. Public speculation centers on land owned by J. W. Culbertson near Dean Station in Clay County.
