PHILIPPINE OIL
After Five Years of Fruitless
! Efforts No Liquid Is ' :
i 5 " Discovered
,j.,r . . '.. . i-g
After an effort covering a per
iod ot ji years the Standard Ojl
company (California) is abandon
ing its prospecting operations on
Bondoc Peninsula, 'Island of Luz
on; of the Philippine group, which
have been conducted by the Rich
mond Petroleum company, a sub
sidiary of : the Standard Oil com
pany. So ends a great ventureto
find a new supply of oil for the
future. The holes drilled, at Bon
doc proved to be "dusters." The
area! prospected, which seemed
promising from surface 1 indica
tions, .does not bear oil beyond
traces and the wildcatters are
striking camp and coming home.
The Philippines expedition fur
nishes a striking example of . the
hazards of the oil industry The
search for hidden deposits of pe
troleum is uncertain the indus
try seek3 and sometimes finds,
and sometimes doesn't. In either
case the expense is ,great, requir
ing! resources, of vast size. The
expenditure In the Philippines will
run to approximately a million
and a quarter dollars. There is
compensation, however; for, where
many ; wildcat ventures may 1 fail
one may succeed with profitable
results Such is i the history - of
oil. h ; f- '; '
. For more than three years? the
work proceeded, steadily but with
climatic interruptions. The rains
brought Hoods; the typhoons were
destructive. .The first hole went
to 1,200 fcft, and was abandoned
on account of mechanical trouble.
No oil. The second was drilfed
to 3730 feet. No oil. Tho third.
the final great effort, went down
to a depth of 5120 feet, almost a
mile.! No oil and the end.
i The effort in the Philippines
has been j watched .with great in
terest by the United States (gov
ernment, numerous branches of
which realized the vast import
a nee .of an American oil supply
on the othelr side, of the Pacific
ocean. i ' -f : '
The failure to find oil at; Bon
doc docs 'not prove that there is
no oil in ''the islands." It means
that there is none in the , area
"prospected. There lia. oil to :the
north, in Japan, and to the south,
in Borneo, and it may yet be found
in the Philippine group, where
there ha,s beenjpnly one real drill
