00:00:01.940 --> 00:00:04.110
<v ->America needs oil</v>

2
00:00:04.110 --> 00:00:07.120
and the sea is sitting on vast amounts of it.

3
00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:11.130
To find it, we at Texaco first make scientific surveys.

4
00:00:11.130 --> 00:00:13.148
Where our geologists think there's oil,

5
00:00:13.148 --> 00:00:15.423
we bring out a drilling platform.

6
00:00:16.540 --> 00:00:19.630
From the start, dozens of safety devices

7
00:00:19.630 --> 00:00:22.630
keep an around the clock check on the drilling well

8
00:00:22.630 --> 00:00:25.050
and highly trained men always keep an eye

9
00:00:25.050 --> 00:00:26.493
on the safety devices.

10
00:00:27.510 --> 00:00:29.473
Where their eyes can't see,

11
00:00:30.330 --> 00:00:32.650
TV cameras are watching for them

12
00:00:32.650 --> 00:00:35.210
and sitting on each well are blowout preventers

13
00:00:35.210 --> 00:00:38.350
that can quickly close the well if necessary.

14
00:00:38.350 --> 00:00:39.780
Once the wells are completed,

15
00:00:39.780 --> 00:00:41.640
all the drilling equipment is replaced

16
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:45.230
with high pressure valves called a Christmas tree.

17
00:00:45.230 --> 00:00:48.130
At Texaco, we do all this so that one day

18
00:00:48.130 --> 00:00:50.760
under water wells producing thousands of barrels

19
00:00:50.760 --> 00:00:54.373
of much needed oil could look like this.

20
00:00:55.730 --> 00:00:58.823
At Texaco, we're working to keep your trust.
