The odds against success are long . ; j
but it's a risji that must be taken if you are to have
adequate, dependable supplies7>f natural gas.
That's right. Few other businesses in *
the world face the continuous hazards of
Yailure that, confront the companies
engaged in exploration for oil and natural gas.
On the basis of national averages las* year,
for every producing well discovered in
a "wildcat” area, eight holes were dry.
It costs big money to locate new supplies of
natural gas—and big money to move
it to market. But the members of the gas
industry "team" —producers, pipeliners
and distributors — will continue to discover new
reserves of this premium fuel . . . will
continue to build pipe lines and distribution
systems to^bring it t.o your home or
factory ... as long as if sells at prices
that provide a fair return on the
enormous investments requifed.
Hrrr in the Gulf'Southr natural gat
service costs you about the same as it did
20 years ago. We.think you'll agree
it s worth every rent you pay for
