Book excerpt: A legend among oilmen, Tom Slick was an independent operator in the truest sense. His office was his buggy during his early days of wildcatting the Mid-Continent oil field around 1910. And even after great success brought him to posher surroundings in an Oklahoma City office suite, his style remained hands-on. His impromptu deals were often brokered on street corners and over the telephone in his typical laconic style. Well into the 1920s he was the last of a breed who had no stock holders or board members to answer to, and instead "worked out of his hip pocket." Slick's extraordinary rise paralleled that of the modern petroleum industry. He began his career in the oil fields of western Pennsylvania, the birthplace of the American oil business. Before 1910, he headed west, traveling with his father and brother to the fields of Kansas to work as contract drillers. Slick met with failure in these early years, as he moved on to Oklahoma in an attempt to locate oil. In 1912 he received the financial backing to drill one more well, which turned out to be the discovery well for the vast Cushing Field. This amazing success was followed by more discoveries of fields - a frenzy of acquiring, drilling, then selling that in 1929 culminated with Slick's sale of his Oklahoma holdings in the Prairie Oil and Gas Company - up until that time, the largest sale of oil properties by an individual. In this first biography of Tom Slick, Ray Miles fleshes out the man who, despite his legendary drive - and the high-profile nature of the oil business - was exceedingly private and withdrawn. Miles relies on newspaper accounts, court and business records, correspondence, and personal interviews with family, friends, and associates to render a portrait of one of the most successful and colorful, yet elusive, businessmen of his day.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Drilling Wells in Oklahoma by the Mud-Laden Fluid Method The waste of natural gas in Oklahoma has been enormous, and unless methods of preventing this waste are adopted the wealth of that State Will be decreased, not only by the intrinsic value of the gas wasted, but by loss of income obtained from those communi ties and industries whose prosperity and life depend on the exist ence and utilization of this ideal fuel. Furthermore, the rapid removal of gas from oil-bearing beds tends to decrease the total yield of oil. The saving of the gas is important to the oil producer also, for the use of gas to generate power makes it possible to operate profitably an oil lease that otherwise may have to be aban doned, and this, too, at a We when the revenue, though small, is steady. At many wells in the older oil fields the natural gas has been wasted, and crude oil, or more generally gasoline, has been used to generate the power to pump the oil, thus increasing the cost of production. The maximum yield of oil can be obtained only where a fuel as cheap and efficient as natural gas is available. During the winter of 1912 - 13 the development of the Cushing field in Oklahoma became very active, and many wells were drilled to the deeper sands which contained large volumes of natural gas. The enormous waste of the gas encountered during the drilling for oil called forth protests from various sources, and appeal was made to the President of the United States and to the Secretary of the Interior in behalf of the landowner and of the public welfare. The facts were wanted regarding the amount of the waste and the technical conditions that were responsible for practices causing it.
