bia County, with 32 percent, and Union County, with 23 percent, accounted
for the major part of the output. Six refineries, with total processing capacity
of 90,650 barrels of crude oil per day, were operated during the year. 
 Oilfields in south Arkansas were productive through more than 6,000 active
wells at yearend. A major part of the output was from secondary recovery
projects. The Mobil Oil Corp. steamfiood project 
of the Nacatoch (Upper Cretaceous age) in the Troy and Irma oilfields, Nevada
County, and the fireflood project of the Tokio Formation in the Troy field,
were regarded as the most significant secondary recovery projects. 
 The Magnolia field in Columbia County again was credited with most of the
production, 4.1 million barrels, and with the largest reserve, 50.0 million
