Abstract

The writer describes the geology of the structure upon which the Larremore oil field is located. This field is also known as the Jolly or Roxana field, as the discovery well was drilled on the A. W. Jolly farm, C. Crenshaw Survey, by the Roxana (now Shell) Petroleum Corporation. The oil is obtained from the Edwards limestone encountered at a depth of approximately 1,285 feet. This is the second Edwards limestone field discovered in the United States.
