THE OCEAN FLOOR IS THE NEWEST FRONTIER in our search for oil to help meet the growing demand of motorists, home owners, farm ers, industry and the Armed Forces. Last year Standard’s scientists explored millions of acres offshore and on land in the Western Hemi sphere. Once again we discovered new oil deposits that will help supply the 830 gallons of petroleum everyone in the U. S. will use this year ... and the 1000 gallons they’ll need by 1965. With oil becoming more difficult and expensive to find, Standard's investment in exploration is in creasing .., $119,000,(MM) last year. That’» one way we can find new oil to help keep ahead of the nation’s growing need for products from jietroleum. Doily U 5. Oil consumption hot risen from 3 million barroll in 1946 to 9 million barroll in 1 956 and isorpeded io reach I T/i million by 1965. STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA plana thtad to aarra you buttar
