Increased wildcat drilling during 1950 resulted in an increase in discoveries, but not, probably, in reserves established per discovery. Over-all reserves increased considerably due to the one major discovery, North Milroy in Stephens County, and increased development drilling with numerous revisions and extensions of older fields. Secondary recovery commenced in earnest, jumping total projects from 3 in 1949 to 50 by the end of 1950, and reserves will begin to show an increase from this source in 1951.
