Oil In (lanadavs Norwest Territories

OTrAWA. March (L-Sometlmes what seems a prosaic business tran- section has behind it a world of ro- mance and high adventure; Such was the case when the Department of the Interior, early in 1933, re- ceived from the Northwest Com- pany, Limited, a subsidiary of Im- perlal oil Limited. a cheque for the amount of the first royalty payable lo the Government on the produc- tion of the.Company's petroleum well near Norman in the Northwest

(cries, nine hundred odd miles, Canada goose flies, north of lxinoliton. That slip of paper con- tained only ten or a dozen words but ll0W much of faith vindicated lllCl work accomplished it revealed.

In i921 the Northwest Company struck a flow of petroleum, reputed at that time to be about at the rate of 100 barrels per day, in what is

commonly called the Norman well,

situated on the bank of the Mac- kenzie river fifty-three miles below

Norman. The well was completed in

i925 and as there was no immediate local use for the petroleum it was

LAAJ

where it was and would never be- come a commercial proposition. It was held that it would be out o! the market until the southern wells went dry and even‘ then the cost of frelghtlng it up stream nine hun- dred or one thousand miles to rail head, or pumping it up hill through p. pipe line for the same distance, would be prohibitive.

Then came the aeroplane, and maps made from aerial photographs. Prospectors and their supplies were taken in from rail head in as many hours as it formerly took weeks, and were moved from location to location with equal speed. Steam- boats and tractors, canoes and dog- trains were in use, too, but it was the aeroplane which carried the master key to the doors of the North.

The mineral deposits about the east end of Great Bear Lake were discovered, development began, and there was a demand for gasolene and fuel oil. Great Bear lake empties into the Mackenzie river through Great Bear river, at the mouth of which latter Norman ls- situated. The Norman oil source in i932 was, therefore, comparatively speaking, next door to its custom- ers, with water transportation (ex- cept one portage around a stretch of rapids in the Great Bear river) from the well to the east end of Great Bear lake. The Northwest Company, which had brought in a small refining plant in 1921, open- ed this up in the spring of 1932 and supplied gasolenc and fuel oil for running motors and Diesel engines in the mining Gil-HIPS. It was upon this production that the royalty was paid and while the output so far has been relatively small this commer~ cial use of northem oil ls both a fulfilment of well grounded predic- tlons of fen years ago and a prom- lee of greater things to come.
