OIL AND GAS ACTIVITIES IN FLORIDA, 1970
by Clarence Babcock

In 1970 a major Smackover discovery was made in the Florida panhandle.
Also, a new field was discovered in the southern part of the State. In
addition, the daily oil production from the West Sunoco-Felda field of
southern Florida increased from 980 barrels from five wells during December,
1969 to 7,470 barrels from 17 wells during the corresponding month a year
later. Developments in 1970 were more significant than all previous develop-
ments in the history of the oil and gas in Florida.
Specific descriptions of the new discovery wells, and the recent develop-
ment wells in the West Sunoco-Felda field, will be highlighted in this report.

EXPLORATORY DRILLING

As summarized in exploratory footage table 1, a total of 182,978 feet was
drilled in wells completed in 1970. This footage was drilled in two discovery
wells, one presumably successful outpost well, and 12 wildcat tests which
were plugged and abandoned. The locations of the tabulated wells are shown
on figure 1; and data sheets for each well listed are presented in appendix 1.
Exploratory footage table 1, discussed above, as well as development
footage table 2, which is discussed later in the report, list only those wells
which were completed in 1970; permit numbers corresponding to these
completed wells also are shown. The readership may desire to effect a
reconciliation, as of December 31, 1970, of permit numbers for completed
wells (tables 1 and 2) and uncompleted wells. To facilitate such a
reconciliation, a categorical list of the permit numbers corresponding to
uncompleted wells is shown in appendix 2.
The two 1970 discovery wells listed in table 1 will be discussed.

THE STATE'S MAJOR SMACKOVER DISCOVERY,
NORTHWESTERN FLORIDA

The Humble Oil and Refining Company and the Louisiana Land and
Exploration Company established excellent Jurassic-Smackover oil production
at their No. 1 St. Regis Paper Company, et al well, Section 43-5N 29W, Jay
area, Santa Rosa County, northwestern Florida.
On a six-hour Initial Production Test through perforations at 15,470-524
feet this discovery flowed natural at a rate of 1,712 barrels of 50.7 degree
gravity oil plus 2.15 million cubic feet of gas per day through -inch choke.
The gas contained 10.6 percent H2S. Tubing pressure was 3,450 pounds, and
gas-oil ratio was 1,253 to 1. Following testing operations the well was shut in
on June 11, 1970.

This well is considered to be one of the best Smackover discoveries in the
southeast during the past ten years. It also is the first well to penetrate the
Smackover Formation of the upper Jurassic section of northwestern Florida.
It is 5% miles southeast of the Humble, No. 1 Loper producer, located on the
southern flank of the Flomaton gas field, Escambia County, Alabama, which
was discovered in 1968. The Loper well flowed through perforations at
15,414434 feet in the Norphlet Formation at a rate of 350 barrels of
condensate plus 4.6 million cubic feet of gas per day.
Ownership in the jointly-operated oil production unit containing some
3,000 acres located over much of the most productive part of the Jay
structure is:

Percent
Humble Oil and Refining Company 35.4
Louisiana Land and Exploration Company 38.5
Sun Oil Company 14.5
Others 11.5

The operators have installed a small separator plant to extract the sulphur
content from the production at Jay. This plant has a capacity of 2,000 BOPD.
The operators plan to complete a 12,000-BOPD separator plant in the last
quarter of 1971. It is anticipated that the capacity of this plant will be
increased and/or additional plants will be built to handle further increases in
production at Jay.
Leasing activity throughout Santa Rosa County, Escambia County and
Okaloosa County, and in the southern part of the remaining counties of
northwestern Florida, has been very heavy and competitive.

THE JAY STRUCTURE


Figure 2 depicts the Jay structure on which the discovery well at Jay is
located.
The Jay structure appears to be similar in structural type, influence on
overlying sediments, and position within the basin, to the Quitman field,
Clarke County, Mississippi, as that field is depicted by Hughes (1968, fig. 2).
Hughes designates the Quitman field as a low relief peripheral salt ridge; his
explanation (p. 322) of the origin of this type of structure is:
"The origin of the peripheral salt ridge and its associated peripheral
salt belt is explained by simple salt movement contemporaneous with
deposition. The salt was deposited as a wedge with gradual thickening to
the south from its updip limit. As the basin floor tilted southward, the
wedgeout edge of the salt became the highest portion of the sale mass.
Overburden was deposited contemporaneous with tilting to create

differential forces which caused the salt to flow toward the wedgeout.
This produced the salt ridge immediately south of the wedgeout."
Hughes did not imply wrenching action by his contours of the Quitman field
ibidd, fig. 6, p. 328).
An abstract of a paper by Keyes (1971, p. 347) relative to the area of the
Flomaton field, located some five to eight miles northwest of the discovery
well at Jay, states that:
"Movement of Louann salt and faulting occurred, probably as a result
of gravity slide and basinward salt creep, (which formed) structures
capable of trapping hydrocarbons."
This statement is believed to be appropriate as an explanation of the Jay
structure as well as of the structure which traps the hydrocarbons at
Flomaton.
A specific explanation for the reversal and assymetrical configuration of the
Jay structure must await well control and the preparation is isopach maps
therefrom. Mechanisms which may prove to be involved include: a) salt
flowage, presumably up regional dip, "toward the wedgeout," as discussed by
Hughes ibidd.), b) the "rollover", of the beds of the downthrown block into
the fault plane as a result of, a flattening of the dip of the fault plane with
depth, c) the "rollover" of the beds of the downthrown block into the fault
plane when underlying salt becomes detached from the upthrown block and
slips under the overburden, d) the draping of overlying beds over areas from
which salt was dissolved in connection with a separation at the salt level
resulting from the down-to-the-coast Foshee fault.
The Fochee fault is assumed to be a "pull-apart" fault which developed
after the coastward component of the overburden pressure became sufficient
to cause the plastic flow of the salt. Hughes (1968, p. 330) states that in
Clarke County, Mississippi:
"Salt flowage began soon after deposition of a small amount of
overburden. In the area studied salt flowage began after only a few
hundred feet of Norphlet was deposited on top of the Louann salt."

The Foshee fault trace at the approximate level of the Bucatunna Clay
Member of the Byram Formation is depicted by Marsh (1962, plate 1; and
also 1966, fig. 24, p. 97). The 1962 report shows that in the Jay area the
Bucatunna occurs from about 300 to 500 feet of depth sub-sea. The 1966
report shows the fault trace to be probably angular, and to be about 26 miles
long. It also shows that three antithetical faults are associated primarily or
exclusively with the northerly part of this fault plane. It seems reasonable that
at the Smackover level the engagement of the northerly part of the fault
plane, which probably had dip slip movement, with the southerly part of the
plane, with probable strike slip movement in part, may have resulted in at
least slight wrenching action.






BUREAU OF GEOLOGY


Coincidence of the Foshee fault with a zone of weakness in rocks
underlying the Louann salt would strengthen the possibility that a wrenching
movement was involved in the formation of the Jay structure.
It is quite possible that other oil accumulations in traps of the Jay type
occur in Florida parallel to the Foshee fault. Also, traps in northwestern
Florida, and especially south of Jay, may exist in other types of salt
structures. The type and size of salt structures in Clarke County, Mississippi
are controlled by the thickness of the mother salt (Hughes, 1968, p. 321). It
is anticipated that the salt thickness likewise will determine the characteristics
of salt structures in the northwestern part of Florida. And areas or bands of
similar salt thickness are likely to be oriented at least roughly parallel to the
strike of contours on top of a high resistivity marker in the Eutaw Formation
of the Upper Cretaceous section (Puri and Vernon, fig. 10, p. 30).

HUMBLE, NO. 1 LEHIGH ACRES DEVELOPMENT, INC.
DISCOVERY WELL

The Lehigh Acres discovery well, Section 14-45S-27E, Lee County,
southern Florida, was completed June 8, 1970. On Initial Pumping Production
test through perforations in the upper Sunniland Limestone at 11,472-482
feet this well yielded 508 BOPD (barrels of oil per day) plus 20 BWPD
(barrels of water per day); oil gravity was 27 degrees.
The Lehigh Acres area (figs. 1 and 3) is being developed with a 160-acre
spacing pattern. Development plans call for the drilling of several directional
holes from each of a limited number of surface pads, in deference to Lehigh
Acres Properties, which wishes to minimize damage to esthetic values.

DESCRIPTIONS
OF PRE-1970 FIELDS

SUNNILAND FIELD

The structural trap for this field (fig. 1), discovered in 1943 and operated
by the Humble Oil and Refining Company, is a northwest-southeast dome 2
miles wide and 4% miles long. There are 17 producing wells on this structure.
Production is from calcareous rock containing disoriented macro-fossils
(rudistids), which is reached at a depth of about 11,500 feet. This production
is obtained from five zones or porosity occurring within an interval beginning
at the top of the Sunniland Limestone and extending to a point about 60 feet
lower in the section. The intervals of hard calcilutite separating the five zones
vary from 3 to 10 feet in thickness (unpublished cross sections prepared by
Woodson R. Oglesby, Bureau of Geology). The lowermost of the five
productive zones, known as D zone, has a bottom-water drive, whereas the
four overlying zones have side-water drives.

The yield of the better wells in the field ranges from about 188 to 390
BOPD.
At this time it is thought that 35 million barrels of oil probably is a
reasonable figure for the initially recoverable reserves of the field. Some
reports state that the gravity of the oil in specified field wells is as low as 19
degrees; other reports quote figures as high as 26 degrees.
In 1969 submersible pumps were installed in some of the wells in the
Sunniland field to increase oil production. These pumps have not caused an
increase in the percentage of salt water production from this field (table 3).

SUNOCO-FELDA FIELD

In 1964 the Sun Oil Company discovered the Sunoco-Felda field (figs. 1
and 3), located 18 miles north of the Sunniland field.
The Sunoco-Felda field contains 22 producing wells drilled on 160-acre
spacing; the limits of the field to the north, south and east are defined by
nine dry offset field wells, and three outpost wells. The production from the
better wells in the field ranges from about 160 to 240 BOPD.
Structural nosing associated with a decrease of oil permeability in
up-gradient directions where the section is relatively chalky is the trapping
mechanism in the Sunoco-Felda field.
This field produces from the upper part of the miliolilic Roberts zone, the
name used by the operator. State Board of Conservation Order No. 1,
December 15, 1964, designating this zone as the Roberts pool, described it in
the Sun Oil Company, No. 1 Red Cattle Company well, Section 30-45S-29E,
Hendry County, as occupying the interval from 11,420 to 11,570 feet. This
150 foot interval comprises the upper part of the Sunniland Limestone, which
is 190 feet thick in the No. 1 Red Cattle Company well. The Sunniland
Limestone is part of the Glen Rose Subgroup of the Lower Cretaceous Trinity
Group. This formation is described by Paul L. Applin (1960, p. 209-211).
The No. 1 Red Cattle Company well was perforated at 11,482-11,484
feet; this is a part of the stratigraphic interval which produces throughout the
Sunoco-Felda field. The top of these perforations are 62% feet below the top
of the Roberts zone; this perforated interval appears to be the correlative of
the D zone in the Humble Oil and Refining Company, No. 26 Gulf Coast

Realties Corporation well of the Sunniland field. The subject productive
interval has a bottom water drive in both fields.
WEST SUNOCO-FELDA FIELD

The Sun Oil Company drilled the discovery well for the West Sunoco-Felda
field (figs. 1 and 3) in 1966 at a location 3 miles west of the Sunoco-Felda
field. State Board of Conservation Order No. 8, August 29, 1969, formally
recognized that there is no connection between the oil accumulation in the
West-Sunoco-Felda field, and that in the original Sunoco-Felda field, except
that of the common water drive of the area.
In the West Sunoco-Felda field oil is trapped in a local anticlinal feature
which has at least 60 feet of vertical relief. Oil permeability in miliolitic rock
was developed in an interval acted upon by relatively high wave energy along
the shore-line. In the West Sunoco-Felda field oil permeability is less desirable
in parts of the field where the productive rock is relatively chalky.
In the West Sunoco-Felda field the productive interval in the first three
producers was the porous interval of the Roberts zone which produces in the
Sunoco-Felda field; this is the stratigraphic equivalent of the D zone of the
Sunniland field. The combined oil yield of the Initial Pumping Production
Tests on these three wells was 243 BOPD; the per well average was 81 BOPD.
The fourteen subsequent producers in the West Sunoco-Felda field are
perforated in the C interval, which is the approximate stratigraphic equivalent
of the C zone of the Sunniland field. The C interval overlies, with little or no
separation, the well-stained Roberts zone porosity of the Sunoco-Felda field
(Babcock, 1970, fig. 4). The combined oil yield on Initial Production Tests of
these fourteen wells was 9,135 BOPD; the per well average was 653 BOPD.
Figure 4 shows the oil-water contact in the West Sunoco-Felda field. This
figure also indicates the amount by which the water must rise to reach the
top of perforations in field wells.
So far two dry holes and an abandoned producer have defined only the
northeast and southeast limits of the field.

MOBIL'S NEW FIELD
AT LAKE TRAFFORD

The Barron Collier, Jr., discovery well is so far the only well in Mobil's
new field at Lake Trafford (fig. 1). This well is located in Section 9-47S-28E,
Collier County, southern Florida, and about 1% miles southwest of Lake
Trafford. It was completed on March 30, 1968 with an Initial Pumping
Production of 118 BOPD and 78 BWPD through perforation at 11,870-892
feet. Subsequently, the well was re-cemented and re-perforated, and it
currently produces approximately 100 BOPD with no water. The top of the
productive interval, which occurs in the lower part of the Sunniland
Limestone, is about 15 feet above the Punta Gorda Anhydrite. The other

Limestone.
The rock from which production is obtained in the Mobil well consists of
hard calcilutite. It is understood that permeability in this rock was developed
by boring organisms on a mud flat.

PRODUCTION, 1970

Almost all of the State's 1970 oil production is from the five fields of
southern Florida, all of which operate on pump. The 1970 monthly
production by field for this part of the State, and the cumulated production
of the fields as of December 31, 1970, is included in tables 4 and 5. A
summation of this information for the five fields of southern Florida is:

In addition, table 6 shows that a total of 6,819 barrels of oil flowed from
the discovery well of the Jay field of northwestern Florida in 1970.
Data sheets for each well listed in production tables 4, 5 and 6 are
presented in appendix 1.

AVERAGE PRICES AT WELL HEAD
OF SOUTHERN FLORIDA CRUDE OIL, 1970

The average prices at the well head received in 1970 for southern Florida
crude oil are presented in table 7. These prices varied from $2.15 to $3.15.

ANTICIPATED INCREASE
IN PRODUCTION

In view of the new discoveries in Florida in recent years, and especially in
1970, an estimate of percent of production increase or decrease within the
next ten years is pertinent. Tables 4, 5 and 6, which present the production






BUREAU OF GEOLOGY


figure for the past three years, are considered in arriving at this estimate.
In making this estimate two assumptions are made which appear feasible,
but which do not reflect any information received by the State from the
operators. These assumptions are: 1)that a 12,000-BOPD increment in
separator plant capacity will be completed each October, 1971-1975, inclusive,
and 2) that an average of 2 rigs, each requiring 2 months per well, will drill
through September, 1974 when 48 field wells should be completed.
Other factors considered in the estimate include: the size of the Jay
structure as indicated by available subsurface control (fig. 2), the probable
allowable of its wells (1,000 BOPD), and the fact that it appears quite certain
that the field will be developed with a 160-acre spacing pattern.
On the basis of the foregoing considerations, table 8 shows the anticipated
increase in oil production, from the fields discovered as of December 31,
1970, for each year of the next ten years. Also, this table shows that in 1980
the oil production in Florida from fields already discovered will be about 7%
times the current production. A review of table 8 indicates that the 1980 level
of production will have been reached, approximately, as early as 1974.
As a matter of interest, the present oil production is 8% times the
production in 1960 (353,703 barrels).
It appears probable that in the coming decade new discoveries will be made
in both the northwestern part of the State, and in southern Florida. Table 8
shows that it is anticipated that by 1974 about 73 percent of Florida's oil
production will be derived from the Jay field. Obviously, each additional
discovery as good or better than Jay will result in a notable increase in the
production of the State.

Mines, October 23, 1970, estimated that the actual crude oil demand for
November, 1969 would be:
Daily Relative National
For State Of Barrels Position
Mississippi 177,000 10th
Alabama 18,000 21st
According to these statistics Mississippi is about 10 times more important as
an oil producing state than is Alabama. Also, since Florida's production in
1970 was about 8,500 BOPD, it appears that doubling this State's oil
production could almost raise it to the level of Alabama as a producer.
Table 9 shows that the approximate gas production in 1970 from Florida's
six fields was 307.8 million cubic feet; also, the anticipated gas production in
1980 from the six fields already discovered is 22,372 million cubic feet. From
these figures it is estimated that the gas production in 1980 from already
discovered fields will be about 73 times the 1970 production (22,372 mm cf
307.8 mm cf). Since much of this production will contain H2 S gas, some of
which will be transported across State boundary lines, it appears that the
Federal Government will be involved in pipeline specifications and regulations.

RIGS OPERATING IN FLORIDA

Ten rigs were used in the drilling of 29 wells completed in 1970 (table 10).

GEOPHYSICAL ACTIVITY

OFFSHORE GEOPHYSICS

The 1970 Florida offshore geophysical permits, consisting entirely of
permits for seismic activity, are summarized in table 11; locations of the
permits are shown on figure 5. These presentations show that in 1970 there
were 11 permits for offshore geophysical activity. Ten of these permits were
for work performed on State and Federal water bottoms west and south of
Florida; and one permit was for a survey of Federal acreage offshore from the
Florida east coast.
The number of Florida offshore permits for each of the previous seven
years has been 5 in 1963, 7 in 1964, 10 in 1965, 13 in 1966, 23 in 1967, 19
in 1968, and 9 in 1969.

MAINLAND GEOPHYSICS

Details of Florida's mainland geophysical activity, 1970, which totaled 293
crew weeks, are presented in table 12; it appears that most, and possibly all,
of this work consisted of seismic surveying. For comparison, the 1969 figure
for geophysical activity was 236 crew weeks.
Table 13 recapitulates the 1970 geophysical activity by regional areas
within the State. This table shows that 247% crew weeks of work (91 percent
of the total) occurred in northwestern Florida. This mostly reflects the
interest in the Smackover prospects of this area. A total of 35% crew weeks
of geophysics (12 percent) occurred in southern Florida.

LAND

OFFSHORE ACREAGE

Figure 6 shows the locations, and a tabulation of lease information, for
Florida's two current offshore leases. The mineral rights of both of these
leases, containing a combined total of 3,910,460 acres, are held by the Coastal
Petroleum Company, and the annual rental received by the State from the
leases is $49,614.40.
Also, Coastal holds State Mineral Lease No. 248 on 11 lake bottoms of
Florida containing a combined total of 660,736 acres, including Lake
Okeechobee, with 467,200 acres. The annual rental on this lease is
$19,985.92.
In 1964 the Coastal Petroleum Company entered into a farmout agreement
with the Mobil Oil Corporation relative to the company's three water bottom

leases of State acreage. Under the terms of this agreement Mobil may earn a
one-half interest in the oil and gas rights under these leases by the assumption
of certain obligations. With respect to minerals other than oil and gas and
including limestone, Mobil can earn such an interest only as to areas one mile
from the shore on Lease Nos. 224A and 224B.
In a Federal Court case which commenced October 20, 1969 and lasted
three days, Coastal brought suit against the U.S. Corps of Engineers, the
Trustees of the Internal Improvement Fund, and the Central and Southern
Florida Flood Control District. Coastal maintained that the defendants had
illegally denied the company the right to mine limerock from Lake
Okeechobee under the terms of its lease. As of December 31, 1970 Federal
Court proceedings had not reached a point of final conclusion relative to some
of the significant facets of the case, despite the fact that an opinion had been
rendered.
Coastal's obligations with respect to its Florida leases were suspended by
Federal Court action in October, 1969 pending the outcome of the above
litigation. A suspension has been granted by Coastal to Mobil with respect to
the latter's obligations under the 1964 farmout agreement between the two
companies.

MAINLAND ACREAGE

Current figures on acreage under lease on the Florida mainland are not
available to this office. In 1966, however, those figures totalled 3,754,136
acres.


NEW FLORIDA STATUTES
AFFECTING MINERALS

There were no Hearings before the Florida Department of Natural
Resources during 1970, nor were any new rules and regulations promulgated
in this period.
There were, however, several Florida statutes enacted in 1970 which affect
minerals, which are:
1) Chapter 193.481 Assessment of oil, mineral and other subsurface
rights.
This chapter provides that the subsurface owner of separately-owned
mineral deeds shall pay ad valorem property taxes for this ownership as
assessed at a just valuation. Further, tax certificates which encumber
subsurface rights may be negotiated just as in real property; in
particular, the owner of the fee title can purchase these certificates.
However, this law does not effect any contractual obligations existing on
June 4, 1969.

2) Chapter 197.063 Delinquent taxes on subsurface rights; notice of
sale; rights of fee owner.
This statute provides for notification of the fee owner if the
certificates for subsurface mineral deeds are to be sold for taxes, so that
he may purchase these certificates at the maximum rate of interest
provided by law before bids are accepted for sale of the certificates.
3) Chapter 704.05 Easements and Rights of Entry.
This chapter specifies that easements given or reserved in connection
with any conveyance or devise of realty for purposes of exploration or
development can be cancelled after expiration of 20 years from date of
record if non-exercise of right to explore or develop can be proven.
On December 10, 1970 Senator David H. McClain profiled Senate Bill
210 which, if enacted into law in the 1971 Legislative Session, will
repeal Chapter 704.05.
An important effect of the three chapters discussed above would be to
prevent wide dispersal of title such as has occurred in other states. Chapter
704.05 Easements and Rights of Entry, in particular, seems to be especially
similar in intent to the proscription law of Louisiana.

until March 10, 1971, the date of a Hearing before the Department of
Natural Resources to establish field rules for the Jay field. Also
information about other wells discussed at the Hearing was confidential
until the date of the Hearing. Subsequently, On April 22, 1971 a
correlation log designated as Run No. 1 was run which revealed structural
data on the Southeastern Drilling Company, et al, No. 1 St. Regis Paper
Company well, a southeast outpost to the field. Since all of this additional
structural data was obtained 2% to 4% months after the cut-off date of the
1970 oil and gas report, this discussion of well control in the Jay field is
included in an appendix to the 1970 report.
Figure 2 shows that on the structural top of the Smackover Formation
the Humble, No. 344 McDavid Lands well is the owest productive well
drilled on the Jay structure as of March 10, 1971. Furthermore, on top of
perforations this well is structurally the lowest of the four wells which have
been production tested. A tabulation showing this is:

Florida Datum

Number Well Designation Perforations
417 Humble-LL & E -15,266
No. 1 St. Regis

Unit 32
434 Humble-LL & E -15,355
No. 1 Jones McDavid
453 Humble -15,357
No. 34-4 McDavid

On a 4-hour Initial Production test of the No. 34-4 well through
Smackover perforations at 15,530-598 feet, following acidation with 6,000
gallons, the well flowed 1,061 BOPD with 0.1 of 1 percent BS and W
(bottom sediment and water) through an 18/64-inch choke. The gravity of
the oil was 51.5 degrees; gas-oil ratio was 776 to 1; and tubing pressure
was 1,750 pounds.
The correlation log on the Southeastern Drilling Company, et al, No. 1
St. Regis Paper Company outpost well revealed the top of the lower
Haynesville marker to be about 650 feet low to the Humble, No. 10-4 Bray

well; the Southeastern test is 3% miles southeast of the Bray well, which is
the nearest productive well and structurally the highest well in the field.
Following operations to obtain the correlation log, which was run to a
depth of 15,147 feet on April 22, 1971, drilling was resumed to test the
Smackover-Norphlet sections in the Southeastern well; the Smackover top
was anticipated to occur some 765 feet below the top of the lower
Hayneville. However, after reaching a depth of 15,494 feet, the drill stem
became stuck at 12,524 feet, and as of May 23, 1971, operations to
recover the lost tools still were in progress.
Above apparent closure at the level of the structural top of the
Smackover Formation in the No. 34-4 well there is enough area on the
Florida side of the Jay structure, as mapped on figure 2, for at least 48
160-acre locations; this is the approximate equivalent of 7,680 acres.
Commercial oil in the Smackover Formation, though in progressively
decreasing amounts, probably will be found in wells the structural elevation
of which may be found to be considerably lower than that in the No. 34-4
well. In is anticipated, however, that there will be a decrease in porosity,
and/or water at the base of the Smackover oil column, in flank wells.
No well which has tested the Smackover Formation to date has found
the oil column to be underlain by water.
About 20 feet of oil-saturated sand on top of water was encountered at
the top of Norphlet Formation in Humble, No. 10-4 Bray well, which is
the highest well in the field in structural elevation. Most of the productive
wells in the Smackover Formation which are structurally lower than the
Bray well do not contain Norphlet oil.

Well and Locality Designation System





BUREAU OF GEOLOGY


BUREAU OF GEOLOGY WELL AND LOCALITY DESIGNATION SYSTEM

The locality and well numbering system is based on the location of the
locality or well, and uses the rectangular system of section, township, and
range for identification. The number consists of five parts. These are: 1)a
prefix of three letters designating L for locality or W for well and county
abbreviation, 2) the quarter/quarter location within the section, 3) the
section, 4) the township, and 5) the range.
The basic rectangle is the township which is 6 miles square. It is
consecutively measured by tiers both north and south of the Florida base
line-an east-west line that passes through Tallahassee. This basic rectangle
is also consecutively measured both east and west of the principal
meridian-a north-south line that passes through Tallahassee. In recording
the township and range numbers, the T is left off the township numbers,
and the R is left off the range numbers. Each township is divided equally
into 36 square miles called sections, and are numbered 1 through 36 as
shown on the attached diagram.
The sections are divided into quarters with the quarters labeled "a"
through "d" as shown on diagram. In turn, each of these quarters is
divided into quarters with these quarter/quarter squares labeled "a"
through "d" in the same manner. The "a" through "d" designation of
quarters may be carried to any extent deemed useful.
The location of the well WLn-2N-2E-21db shown on the diagram would
be in the center of the southeast quarter of the northeast quarter of
section 21, township 2 north, range 2 east.
When there is more than one well or locality in a square 40-acre tract
(quarter/quarter section) they are identified by either an additional quarter
designation or by a sixth arbitrary accession number at the end of the
range unit. The abbreviations used for counties are:
