Gas Well Demonstrates Record-Setting Pressure at Petersburg

A thorough test Tuesday night on a Petersburg gas well produced 605 feet of gas pressure to the cubic inch, 215 pounds above any Indiana gusher. The test drew 3,000 spectators as a 50-foot pipe extended from the well and a blazing flame shot up, lighting the night sky. Ex-Congressman A. H. Taylor, president of the company, spoke to the crowd amid cheers. The well’s estimated flow reached 4,000,000 cubic feet per day, with subsequent tests showing similar pressure and a small leak in valves. The Petersburg Ming and Manufacturing Association financed the drilling, with P. J. Miller & Co. in charge. The field encompasses 20,000 leased acres, boosting land values and local business activity.
