Description
Description on back of photograph: "The drilling crew on this location have completed the well and are taking out the rotary table. The control gate has been removed and is lying on the dolly walk at the bottom of the picture. After a well is completed all the equipment must be dismantled and hauled to another location where it will be rigged up to drill another well. The stands of drill pipe in the derrick will be layed down and broken into lengths short enough to be hauled by trucks and trailers."
