Oil and gas commingling
Official statutory text
COMMINGLING
If oil or gas in which there exists more than one oil and gas
lien is commingled with other oil or gas in such a manner that the
identity of the specific oil or gas is lost, then the oil and gas
lien continues without interruption into and attaches to any such
resulting commingled product and is perfected automatically as of
the date of its original perfection but only as to volumes out of
the commingled product equal to the volume of product to which the
oil and gas lien originally attached. In such event, the oil and
gas lien in the commingled product has priority over any security
interest or other lien that is not an oil and gas lien or permitted
lien, whether or not the security interest or other lien has been
properly perfected. If more than one oil and gas lien attaches to
the commingled product, then the oil and gas liens rank equally in
the proportion that the respective sales prices secured by each oil
and gas lien bears as a percentage of the total of the sales prices
secured by all oil and gas liens applicable to the production at the
time the production was commingled. This section is intended to

being considered to have maintained a distinct identity as being
available for sale or transportation under the specific contractual
arrangements applicable to the production at the time it entered the
commingled product stream.
