Oklahoma City Discovery Well

[2] The well is located at the present-day intersection of SE 59th Street and Bryant Boulevard.

It was drilled by the Indian Territory Illuminating Oil Company (ITIO).

In early December they broke through the Arbuckle Limestone layer, noting that the bottom of the formation was saturated with oil and was under gas pressure.

[1] The present site preserves the concrete drilling derrick foundations and the capped well head.
