Abstract
In 1943 continued curtailment of development in South Texas was due to lack of skilled labor, equipment, and material, and decreased transportation facilities. This resulted in a decrease in wells drilled, new fields discovered, and oil wells completed as compared with 1942. Total oil production was increased by about 40 per cent, reflecting a heavier withdrawal rate from the fully developed fields. The Frio-Vicksburg trend contributed 40 per cent of the new discoveries, the Wilcox trend 33 per cent, and the Jackson-Yegua trend 27 per cent. Exploration showed an increase in deeper drilling and more extensive work in the south part of the district.
