It was actually Oryx Energy that re-invigorated Dilley. The "Austin Chalk" formation was considered history until he idea of horizontal drilling caught on. Oryx Energy was the last to give up on the Austin Chalk. I remember one well that produced something like 200 BBLS of salt water per one BBL oil. They had to pay to have the saline removed. Looks like watermellons are the future for Dilley. This is also the place famous for monkeys. I have not kept up with the monkey story, but I think the monkey situation has seen better times.
