How a new source of oil was tapped

"

The story behind deepwater oil
A few year« ago, a test well proved there is
oil under the great Continental Shelf that
extends out into the G ulf of Mexico, and
although the well did not produce much,
it started one o f the m ost u nusual— and
expensive!—drilling program s in history.
So far, in the search for underw ater oil,
seven drilling platforms have been built,
similar to the one above, as far as 10 miles
offshore and in w ater as much as 65 feet
deep. They are set on tubular steel pilings
driven 250 feet through the ocean’s bo t
tom , for they m ust be stro n g enough to
w ith stan d G ulf hurricanes.
The story behind this operation is the
story o f risk ... and o f determ ination to do
everything possible to find oil for the grow
ing needs o f motorists, farms and industries.
Each underw ater field costs millioQS o f dol
lars more than any of equal size drilled on
land, and although oil has been found, not
enough has been produced yet to repay
m ore than a small fraction of the costs.
Meanwhile, the m<5ney being risked is
creating many jobs, spreading to hundreds
o f large and small businesses . . . and help
ing to keep our economy free, competitive
and strong.
