Mr. Jenner. And they were operating in the Rangely, Colo., oil field, is that correct?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. And for the purpose of compiling statistics and engineering data for the entire field?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. No, yes; this and also to allocate production to various wells in the field, because we didn't have any regulatory body in Colorado at the time. We actually applied a certain formula to each well to see how much each well would be allowed to produce. This was our main job, you know.
Then, of course, our job was to coordinate the technical advances in that field and promote the new methods of drilling producing, to cut down expenses in the field. Among other things, we introduced diamond drilling there, drilling with diamond bits, which eventually became very, very successful.
Mr. Jenner. Now, this was what—1947?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. 1946, 1947. I stayed there, I think, about 3½ years, something like that. 3 years, maybe.
Mr. Jenner. Now, at this time you met and married your second wife, did you not?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. Phyllis Washington?
