Tcxans have a natural interest in the oil industry.
which is so important in our State, and in the progress made
since Oil Progress Week was last observed.
Here are a few quick f.icts:
New Wells — During die twelve month*
ending August 51, 19S2, the Texas oil
industry drilled 17,000 new wells, .it a
cost of over $700 million Most of die
heavy expense of drilling these new wells
was p.iul from earnings plowed back into
the development of the Slate's oil re-
sources.
Transportation — The total mileage of
Icxas' trunk pipe lines for oil and finished
products is over 29,000. This low-cost
transportation system is a major factor in
the maintenance ol the low prices you
pay for petroleum products.

TEXAS OPERATIONS
Twelve Months Ending August 31, 19S2
Wells Drilled 891
Average Production,
in barrels daily . . . 330,100
Employee* in Texas,
August 31 .... 17,775
Baytown Refinery
Average crude runs to stills
barrels daily 249,310
Humble Pipe Line Co. operates 5,89*
nnles of trunk lines for oil and finished
products, which had transported a daily
average of 722,600 barrels in the year
ending August )1.
Production—Production has cached a
record level. Texas currently is producing
about 46 per cent of al! the crude oil pro-
duced in the U. S. In the year ending
August Jl, Texas production totaled
about 1,015 million barrels. There are now
13 3,800 producing oil wells in Texas.
Reserves — Proved oil reserves in Texas
of 18 billion barrels represented 5 7 per
cent of the U. S. total at the beginning
of 1 95 2. During 195 1, the last year tor
winch figures are available, proved re-
serves increased two billion barrels. These
are JrnloprJ oil reserves and the figure is
important: developed reserves supply our
needs currently and provide reserve ca
pacity that is immediately available when
we need it.
Refining —The Texas refineries will have
a big year. They now employ, in round
numbers, 46,000 Tcxans, and process
about of all the oil refined in the
U. S. The daily refining capacity of all
Texas refineries exceeds 2,000,000 barrels.
A program to expand and improve these
facilities has been general throughout the
industry.
Taxes — The Texas oil industry continue*
to be the largest tax-payer in the State.
Through the year ending August >1, gross
production taxes alone on Texas oil and
natural gas amounted to more than $137
million, in addition, the industry pays
large amounts in other taxes.
In brief, the Texas oil industry during the past year
continued to do its part in meeting the demand for oil. It has
expanded pipelines to provide low-cost transportation.
It has improved facilities for making more and better
petroleum products for your use. Today, two gallons of
gasoline do work that required three gallons in 1925; and the
gasoline costs no more than it did then.
