 There is currently one producing well in the Mt.
Carmel field. As of the end of 1989, the field had
produced 4,666,000 barrels of oil (Appendix 2).


 MCLELLAN FIELD

 McLellan field was discovered on February 15,
1986, with the initial testing of the Exxon
Corporation State of Florida number 33-1
(permit 1194, Appendix 1, Figures 3 and 17).
The well is located about 3.25 miles north of the
abandoned Sweetwater Creek field in Section
33, Township 6 North, Range 26 West, Santa
Rosa County.
 An initial flowing test of the discovery well
produced 152 barrels of 410 A.P.I. gravity oil per
day and no saltwater. Production is from
Smackover Formation dolostones from -13,827
to -13,845 feet MSL (Figure 18). Core analysis
of a potential oil and gas productive zone from
-13,819 to -13,845 feet MSL by Core
Laboratories, Inc. (Dallas, Texas) indicated a
mean porosity of 12.3 percent. The analysis
showed additional oil and gas production
potential between -13,854 and -13,863 feet MSL.
Mean porosity is about 15 percent for this zone.
Both of the analyzed zones contained dark, fine
grained, microcrystalline dolostones with vuggy
porosity.
 McLellan field is located within the area known
 to be underlain by the Louann Salt and may have
 a salt-related trap structure. It is also located
 within a few miles of the approximate updip limits
 of the Smackover Formation (Lloyd, 1989;
 Applegate et al., 1978; Ottman et al., 1973,
 1976); thus, the trap could be a stratigraphic
 pinchout. Current data does not reveal which
 trap mechanism produced the Smackover
 reservoir for this field.
 The first offset and confirmation well for the
 field was the Exxon Corporation State of Florida
 number 34-2 (permit 1206). It is located about
 one-half mile east of the discovery well (Figure
 17). It was tested on March 9, 1987 and flowed
 641 barrels of 43.40 A.P.I. gravity oil and 24


barrels of saltwater per day. The Smackover
Formation was encountered at -13,788 feet MSL,
27 feet higher than in the discovery well (Figure
18). Production is from the Smackover
Formation from -13,797 to -13,847 feet MSL.
Core analysis by All Points, Inc. (Houston,
Texas) yielded a mean porosity of 11.5 percent
for the productive zone.
 A second offset to the discovery well, Exxon
Corporation State of Florida number 28-4
(permit 1226) was drilled about one-half mile
north of the discovery well (Figure 17). During
initial production tests, in February 1988, the well
flowed 154 barrels of oil (gravity not reported)
and 171 barrels of saltwater per day. The
Smackover was encountered 42 feet higher in
this well than in the discovery well (Figure 17),
indicating a fairly steep gradient between these
wells.
 Operations at the second offset well were
 suspended in March 1988 and the well has since
 been temporarily abandoned. As of December
 1989, production for McLellan field was from the
 two remaining wells and totaled 174,000 barrels
 of oil (Appendix 2).


 SWEETWATER CREEK FIELD

 Sweetwater Creek field was discovered on
 April 22, 1977, with the successful flow test of the
 Houston Oil and Minerals Corporation W. M.
 Stokes number 15-2 well (permit 881, Appendix
 1, Figures 3 and 17). The well is located in
 Section 15, Township 5 North, Range 26 West,
 Santa Rosa County. In the initial test the well
 produced 624 barrels of 43.50 A.P.I. gravity oil
 and only a trace of saltwater from a Smackover
 limestone interval from -14,044 to -14,085 feet
 MSL. This test data spurred rumors that a "new
 Jay" field had been discovered. Rumors proved
 to be false and an offset drilled in 1978 to the
 south of the discovery well was dry (permit 890,
 Figure 17). Core analyses of the Smackover
 Formation in the offset well by Core Laboratories,
 Inc. (Dallas, Texas) indicated very fine
