Standard is exploring 40 countries* to keep America’s oil reserves the highest in history "Swamp buggy" carrying oil geologinti into a Louisiana wilderness SWAMP BUGGIES, snowmobiles—even helicop ters—are used by Standard's geologists, who seek petroleum throughout the free world and in 33 U.8. states. Our search never ends. Last year, in the Western Hemisphere alone. Standard invested $134 million in exploration, drilled 107 test wells. We added nearly three times as much oil to reserves as we brought from the ground. But U.S. consumption rises steadily. It’s now over 9 million barrels per day and expected to increase ’4 within 10 years. So in 1956 we’ll again invest many millions in exploration, drill scores of new wells —seeking the oil you'll use tomorrow. • Includes operation» of affiliated companie» te Kantern Hemúphere STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA put» p»lroltum progrttl to erorh for you 3
