Excerpt from Oil Prospecting, Drilling and Extraction In the mining industry for the prospector, miner, geologist and engineer many books have been written. However, the prospector for oil, the driller and the general operator have never had any book giving. Any classified and systematic data. In this book I have, therefore, attempted to fulfill the requirements of the last mentioned. Especially for Canada is this now needed, where vast areas of oil formations with tremendous productive potentialities lie unprospected when wells are being drilled in large numbers in other parts of the World where infinitely fewer indications for large production existed at the initial stage of development. If the petroleum prospector can work from the standpoint of the trained geologist his efforts will be greatly simplified and will be much more effective. This book is designed to furnish the information that will permit the. Prospector to work in. This way. Petroleum geology has been a specialized profession only within the last ten years. Previous to that time all oil men chose locations for wells and did all other work by chance and by guess.

Excerpt from Prospecting for Oil and Gas To that class who are interested only in the investing or speculating features of the industry, geology is almost unknown. Advertisements or prospectuses of oil and gas ventures are often coupled with a geological report, and whether such report is merely an extract or is given in full, the investing public is unable to analyze its contents and pass judgment upon its merits. There are valuable books written on this subject, the majority of which are intended for the professional geologist, and although invaluable to him, they are too technical or cover only a certain branch of oil and gas prospecting and producing. The profes sioual geologist will notice that in this book an attempt is made to put before practical oil men and the general public the various tools and methods of the scientific oil and gas prospector of the present day, avoiding lengthy discussions and confining its scope mostly to descriptions and explanations, by means of which it is hoped that those interested will be brought into a more intimate relationship with the geologist, and thus they may realize just what may be expected of him and how much service he may render in eliminating a great number of unnecessary chance methods frequently used at the present day. Another class of readers to whom the author hopes this treatise will be of assistance is composed of those who intend to take up and follow the profession of Oil and Gas Geology. For them it may serve as an elementary work on the subject and form an outline of the various phases of study that make up this sub jcet. They will find the different branches of the science treated briefly, and along those lines which will lead the student in his further study and researches. In short, the methods of the leading oil and gas companies are described in a brief manner, and those investigating will find them in this volume.

Excerpt from Prospecting and Testing for Oil and Gas Part III discusses the accurate testing of strata for oil or gas and states principles based on conditions that have frequently existed in well drilling. Some of these principles are illustrated by specific examples. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
