Acting New Mexico BLM Director Larry Woodard of Santa Fe signed the right-of-way agreement Friday, along with Roger Ryman, manager of land and environment for Shell Pipe Line Co. of Houston, Texas, developers of the project. Shell Pipe Line Co is a wholly owned subsidiary of Shell Oil. The carbon dioxide will be taken from the Doe Canyon and McEImo Dome fields in Delores and Montezuma counties in Colorado, transported across New Mexico and injected into the Denver Unit of the Wasson Oil field in Yoakum and Gaines counties Texas.

It is hoped the injections will enable the company to recover oil from previously played-out wells Shell officials hope to revive production in this well field by using the gas to drive out an estimated 280 million barrels of oil believed to stUl be in the oil formation. This process is ex' pected to increase the life of the well field by another 30 years.
