E.F. Foreman, Jr., Southwest Control Company
The oil industry has utilized automatic controls and instruments for controlling processes and functions in the refining, natural gasoline and pipeline departments for a number of years. Only recently, though, have steps been taken to automate the handling of fluid and gas from the well head to the pipelines. Automatic lease installations now installed and operating have shown that the greatly increased economies and performance derived will provide tremendous momentum for full automation of oil and gas production.
