  Oil and Gas Extraction
Because oil and gas are difficult to locate, exploration and drilling are key activities in the oil and gas extraction industry.
When oil or gas is found, the drill pipe and bit are pulled from the well, and metal pipe (casing) is lowered into the hole and cemented in place.
Although worldwide demand for oil and gas is expected to grow, overall wage and salary employment in the oil and gas extraction industry is expected to decline by 28 percent through the year 2012, while employment in all industries combined is projected to increase by16 percent.

 Handbook of Texas Online: OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY
Natural gas resources in the region were boosted with major discoveries in the Old Ocean field in 1936 and with the first of a long succession of gas discoveries in the complicated and prolific Katy field in 1938.
Oil producers were less fortunate in sustaining reserves, in part because of a persistent cross-pressure of rising costs against constant revenues, largely the consequence of the increasing volume of less expensive foreign crude oil.
The largest gas discovery since the Panhandle field, the Gomez field in Pecos County, was followed by large additions to the Coyanosa and Ozona fields during the latter half of the decade.
