Okla. Stat. tit. 17, § 17-509

obligations - Distribution of production.

Property rights, leases, contracts and all other obligations

shall be regarded as amended and modified to the extent necessary to

conform to the provisions and requirements of this act and to any

valid and applicable plan of unitization of the Commission made and

adopted pursuant hereto, but not otherwise.

Nothing contained in this act shall be construed to require a

transfer to, or to cause a vesting in, the unit of title to the

separately owned tracts or leases within the unit area other than

the right to use and operate the same to the extent set out in the

plan of unitization. All property, whether real or personal, which

the unit may in any way acquire or possess shall be held or

possessed by the operator for the account and as agent of the

several owners of the right to drill for and produce brine and shall

be the property of such owners, subject, however, to the right of

the operator to the possession, management, use or disposal of the

same in the proper conduct of its affairs, and subject to any lien

the operator may have thereon to secure the payment of unit

expenses.

The production allocated to each separately owned tract within

the unit, and only that amount, regardless of the well or wells in

the unit area from which it may be produced and regardless of

whether it be more or less than the amount of production from the

well or wells, if any, on any such separately owned tract, shall for

all intents, uses and purposes be regarded and considered as

production from such separately owned tract.

Except as may be otherwise authorized in this act, or in the

plan of unitization approved by the Commission, such production

shall be distributed among or the proceeds thereof paid to the

several persons entitled to share in production from such separately

owned tract in the same manner that they would have participated in

the production or proceeds thereof from such separately owned tract

had not said unit been organized.

Operations carried on under the plan of unitization shall be

regarded as a fulfillment of and compliance with all of the

provisions of the brine or solution gas leases or other contracts

upon lands included within the unit area insofar as said leases or

contracts may relate to the common source of supply or portion

thereof included within the unit. Wells drilled on or operated on

any part of the unit area, no matter where located, shall be

regarded as wells drilled on each separately owned tract within the

unit area.
