| - | This is Bob Hope for Texaco. | 0:02 |
| I'm gonna show you an underground movie | 0:04 | |
| like you've never seen before. | 0:06 | |
| An imaginary drilling trip to show you what Texaco | 0:08 | |
| has to go through to get you oil. | 0:11 | |
| Every layer here has a different meaning. | 0:13 | |
| There may be oil farther down | 0:17 | |
| when we see dome shaped layers like this. | 0:19 | |
| Hey diamonds are a girl's best friend | 0:23 | |
| but they can also be a drilling team's best friend | 0:25 | |
| because to get through this hard cap rock, | 0:27 | |
| we had to change to this expensive | 0:29 | |
| diamond-studded drill bit. | 0:31 | |
| Now we're in sandstone where oil often collects. | 0:33 | |
| This looks like the place. | 0:37 | |
| We've reached oil. | 0:38 | |
| You know it might take Texaco | 0:40 | |
| as long as a year and a half | 0:42 | |
| to drill a real well and go down four miles | 0:43 | |
| and spend over a million dollars. | 0:46 | |
| So you see, this isn't exactly a bargain basement. | 0:48 | |
| But the job has to be done so we can be less dependent | 0:51 | |
| on costly unreliable sources of oil from abroad. | 0:54 | |
| At Texaco, we're working to keep your trust. | 0:57 |
