Title: Shape Up or Get Shipped Out

Author(s): Michel T. Halbouty (2)

Abstract:

There are significant reserves yet to be found in the United States onshore--and certainly in the Mid-Continent area--but these reserves will only be found by explorationists who have sound geologic imagination and the courage to pursue their ideas with boldness and conviction. New ideas are needed now to probe for the less obvious traps which surely abound in this region. The more unusual the concept, the greater the possibility for large discoveries. Old methods will not get the job done. The explorationist and particularly management must "shape up" to new concepts of searching for petroleum or "get shipped out!"
