Where will it all come from? fro m hundreds o f places on earth you might never expect oil to exist. Right now, for example. Standard’s exploration teams are probing the ocean floor many miles out to sea . . . trekking across Arabian deserts, marked “ inaccessible” on maps. Others are climbing over glaciers m Alaska, pushing through the snow into the frozen interior o f Canada, slogging through the jungles o f Latin America. In the last ten years, geologists from Standard and its affiliates explored in 47 countries on six continents. Is the search paying off? V es. In the United States alone, we found two new barrels o f oil for every barrel we took out o f the ground. The search w ill continue to help make certain that Jimmy and his generation w ill have the o il they need for an ever-expanding number ot homes, cars, mechanized farms and industries . . . and provide chemicals from petroleum that will help make possible more exciting new products. panning ahead to serve you better S T A N D A R D O IL C O M P A N Y O F C A L IF O R N IA
