Texaco Public Relations, 1970s

Transcription: - How can we produce more oil right here 0:01 in the United States? 0:03 Well, that's one of today's important energy questions. 0:05 One answer is to get more oil from existing wells. 0:08 Naturally, many have become less and less productive 0:11 through the years, and some too costly 0:14 to operate efficiently. 0:16 But Texaco has stepped up its program to recover 0:17 more oil from these wells. 0:20 Today, we know more about increasing oil recovery 0:22 and have better methods to do it. 0:25 Our efforts have been successful. 0:27 In one Texas field, production has been increased 50%. 0:29 In another field in California, 0:33 recoverable reserves have been tripled 0:36 by secondary recovery methods. 0:38 In fact, over one quarter 0:40 of Texaco's total production today is coming 0:41 from secondary recovery. 0:44 That's enough gasoline to run 0:46 over a half million cars for one year. 0:48 We're making every effort to find more oil 0:51 in the United States and produce more of the oil we find. 0:53 At Texaco we're working to keep your trust. 0:57
