Casing-Head Gasoline.Casing-head gasoline is gasoline whichpasses off in the form of vapor with natu-ral gas accompanying the flow of an oilwell, where oil and gas are found in thesame field. In many localities this gas iswasted because of the difficulty of han-dling it, or because no market exists forits sale, due to its relatively small volume.Often, however, the recoverable gasolinein the gas is worth as much as 20 per centof the oil produced. Special cars are builtfur the transportation of Casing-Headgasoline. Text Appearing After Image: NORTH BROAD RIVER VIADUCT, TOCCOA.
