Deep Test Well Abandoned After 4546 Feet In Crawford County
Vincennes Ind Dec 29 Operators drilling an extraordinary deep oil test well in Crawford county near Illinois has halted at 4,645 feet after discovering a weakening cable longer than 6,000 feet. No water was found in the Trenton rock formation and oil traces are absent. Costs exceed 50,000 dollars with no clear path to further funding. Some believe continuing deepening could eventually yield value, others doubt oil presence in the current formation. The project remains debated though many say the experiment has been worthwhile.
