Exploratory activity in the Panhandle District during 1959 was up 22.8% over 1958, although the exploratory success rate was down 1.2%. There were 106 completions and 218 dry holes. Alarge majority of the discoveries were in Pennsylvanian reservoirs in the Anadarko basin; however, deep drilling in the Panhandle and Hugoton fields accounted for many discoveries.

Leasing and geophysical activity decreased and are expected to remain down during 1960.
