About 17 feet of oil was discovered in the Four Rivers Project on Saturday the 28th February 2009. The Four Rivers Project consists of various prospects running through parts of Louisiana and Mississippi. The oil was discovered after the third well in the Sunnyside Prospect reached a depth of 6000 feet. There are 2 zones that are considered to be profitable at the moment and the Chief Engineer of the oil company in charge, Pryme, is confident that this primary well and another shallower secondary well will raise the potential for additional drilling locations. One of the new locations set for drilling in a few weeks time is the North Natchez prospect.
With this discovery and the many new drilling prospects in this area and others around the country, there are also plenty of oil drilling jobs, oil engineer jobs, and other oil jobs available.
