President Nixon's recent energy message is already bringing results and the White House has been assured unofficially that eight new refineries will be built in the U. S. in the very near future. This word was given to the annual convention of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists in Anaheim, Calif., recently by Charles J. DiBona, the president's special consultant on energy who delivered the keynote address, as reported by Petroleum Information. DiBona said that news of new refinery construction is signigicant in these days of impending oil shortage because not one refinery is now under construction, and none has been built on the east coast since 1958. In defending the President's energy policy against critics who say it is too harsh on consumers and those who say it is too easy on the industry, DiBona said it strikes a balance for three objectives. . .to maintain the vigor of our economy, to protect the environment and to assure national security. He described the energy problem as complex and was critical of those who demand a simple and immediate solution to tough problems, particularly in matters of the environment DiBona noted that while the fever pitch of environmentalism had calmed a bit it is still difficult to get many people to talk or think about energy and environment realistically. DiBona noted there really is an energy problem, but that it will become a far more serious problem if we abdicate our responsibility to devise and support a sensible and effective energy policy. The President's policy, he said, presents the oil and gas industry with problems, incentives and opportunities, and it is up to the geologists and others in the business to show the nation how to get the most out of our resources. We are running out of cheap energy sources, he added, and the industry must drill deeper and in new places, and exercise new ingenuity in finding and producing oil and gas. "I can't promise a rose Garden," Di: In many cases, we ar&going to have to wage an uphill battle 'jut in order to inject some sanity into the nation's thinking about energy. We can't expect thanks from very many places for quite awhile". I feel that we are working toward a balanced program and I am confident that we shall achieve it. Our aim is to provide increased domestic supplies in a manner compatible with our environmental aims and our security needs.". One of our aims has been to remove uncertainty. This is necessary before any businessman can move ahead on a major undertaking. I think that the energy message has done much to remove such uncertainty and create a confident atr uwsphere of sensible development". His challenge to the oil finders was picked up by the president of the AAPG, James E. Wilson, Denver consultant and former Vice President of Shell Oil. The industry, he said, is now equipped with new scientific knowledge and technical instruments for finding oil and gas, and the problem now is to coordinate the new techniques to take full advantage of them. Vast improvements in seismograph and electric logging devices, he said, have made available an almost overwhelming amount of data about underground rock formations, but electronic computers now make it possible to integrate and utilize the information. We have an exploration capability today that is absolutely superb," Wilson said," and in view of our energy crises it borders on a national disgrace that our level of domestic exploration is only at about what it was 30 years ago." We have a substantial and challenging domestic petroleum potential in this country in deeper parts of onshore basins and in the offshore provinces. Much of the Bona said.

Slowly, but hopefully, we are seeing signs of improvement in the factors that will encourage domestic exploration but it takes time for the results of successful exploration to be felt. Some 200 technical papers on the earth's structure and the occurrence of oil, gas and other minerals are scheduled for the three-da- y convention, with special attention to problems of finding petroleum in hostile environments such as the open ocean, arctic wastes, and jungle rain forests. Dr. Lloyd A. Drury, Professor and Associate Director, Utah State University Extension will be guest speaker at the Graduation Exercises for Union high school which will be held May 25. NEW CROSSING SIGNS These "School Crossing" signs were added at cross walks on the south end of Main Street in Roosevelt and by Union high school this week. Dave Roberts, city police chief, stated Monday that the signs are very effective in slowing the highway traffic. The signs were constructed by members of the Roosevelt Kiwanis club as a service project |
