| - | This is Bob Hope for Texaco. | 0:01 |
| I'm gonna show you an underground movie | 0:03 | |
| like you've never seen before. | 0:05 | |
| An imaginary drilling trip to show you | 0:07 | |
| what Texaco has to go through to get you oil. | 0:09 | |
| Every layer here has a different meaning. | 0:13 | |
| There may be oil farther down | 0:17 | |
| when we see dome shape layers like this. | 0:19 | |
| Hey, diamonds are a girl's best friend, | 0:22 | |
| but they can also be a drilling team's best friend | 0:24 | |
| because to get through this hard cap rock | 0:27 | |
| we had to change to this expensive | 0:29 | |
| diamond studded drill bit. | 0:30 | |
| Now, we're in sandstone where oil often collects. | 0:33 | |
| Ya, this looks like the place. | 0:35 | |
| We've reached oil. | 0:37 | |
| You know, it might take Texaco as long | 0:40 | |
| as a year and a half to drill a real well | 0:41 | |
| and go down four miles and spend over a million dollars. | 0:43 | |
| So you see this, isn't exactly a bargain basement | 0:47 | |
| but the job has to be done so we can be less dependent | 0:50 | |
| on costly unreliable sources of oil from abroad. | 0:53 | |
| Bob | At Texaco, We're working to keep your trust. | 0:57 |
