The various drawings of individual wells, along some approximatelystraight line on the ground, are grouped on a single drawing called across section. They must be properly located on the drawing, relativeto distances apart and elevations above sea level. FIRST ANNUAL REPORT. 17 The appearance of such a cross section and its value are illustratedby the following sketch (Fig. 13) of the bottom of four wells in the Coalinga field.

The strata are notbent or deformed in this particular locality. In each well the was intended to shut off the water occurring above the oil sands,and in well No. 3 it was landed at a depth of 1880 ft., in conformitywith successful results at No. 1 and No. 2. However, the sand between1980 ft. and 2016 ft. was found to contain some oil and considerablewater, hence it was necessary to use more casing to shut off this some experimenting was necessary, two strings, the S^-in. at2033 ft. and the 6f-in. at 2098 ft., were used. Had all conditions beenknown beforehand only one string would have been necessary, but whenthe 8i-in. casing was landed and the well drilled deeper more Avaterwas encountered and the 6f-in. casing had to be used.
