Book Description
Excerpt from Oil Field Stratigraphy of Kentucky: A Systematic Presentation of the Several Oil Sands of the State as Interpreted From Twelve Hundred New and Detailed Well Records The oil resources of the State of Kentucky have demonstrated their great importance to the economic prosperity and growth of the Commonwealth. In 1918 Kentucky produced 4,308,893 barrels of crude oil valued at $11,128,421. This was more than doubled in 1919, when 9,226,473 barrels were produced valued at $24,459,017. In 1920 due to steadily increased prices paid for crude oil, the total value of Kentucky crude again jumped and reached the large figure of value of $33,525,210; while the volume slowly declined to 8,546,027 barrels. The loss during the year 1920 was therefore nearly 700,000 barrels. Recently completed figures of petroleum production for Kentucky for the year 1921 again show an increase of 534,818 barrels over the year 1920, or at a total petroleum production for 1921 of 9,080,845 barrels valued at $16,674,969. This increase, which is regarded as temporary, has been due entirely to the new pools found in Johnson, Magoffin, Lawrence and Warren Counties, for the main producing pools of Lee County have declined steadily. In view of this critical condition of the oil producing industry in Kentucky, it has been regarded as worth while to present an uptodate study of the oil sands of the State as interpreted from representative records selected from the large amount of recent drilling. The idea had its inception in the minds of a number of practical operators who have anticipated the value of such a report to drillers generally, and especially those working in "wildcat" localities. It is hoped that the practical values so earnestly predicted may be realized, and that this volume containg over 1,200 new and, here to fore unpublished Kentucky well records, may be the source of much general information as well as assistance in staying the declining oil production of this State.
