PART 2

Written and narrated by Edward Ward
Edward Ward recently returned from a trip through the Sahara Desert, where he saw some of the work that is going on there to discover and prove oilfields that may make a significant contribution to the economic resources of Western Europe and particularly those of France.
In this programme he discusses the discoveries already made and the difficulties associated with getting the oil out of the ground and conveying it to suitable ports for shipment. He also describes typical camps where the search for oil is being carried on.
