5,544-acre tract. The com
pany said multiple oil bearing
sands were logged and cored
to a depth of 8,391 feet oij

though development drilling
on the tract will continue in
to 1975, Gulf said oil from
the new discovery probably
will not begin flowing to U.S.
consumers before *1976, due
to the* long lead times neces

duction facilities. The Mariner
