  SECTION 165:10-17-2. Classification of gas pools  

Latest version.
  • (a)   Types of gas pools. Each gas pool shall be classified by the Commission into one of the following categories:
    (1)   Allocated Gas Pool.
    (2)   Special Allocated Gas Pool.
    (3)   Unallocated Gas Pool.
    (b)   Treatment of gas well in an oil pool. If a well in an oil pool is classified as a gas well for allowable purposes, the well shall be treated as if it were in an unallocated gas pool, unless the well is subject to pool rules which establish allowables by volumetric withdrawal.
    (c)   Allocated gas wells.
    (1)   Classification of pool by order. Upon application, notice, and hearing, the Commission may issue an order establishing allowables for gas wells in a pool by the allocated gas pool rules in 165:10-17-8.
    (2)   Status of an oil well reclassified as a gas well. If a well classified as an oil well in an allocated gas pool is reclassified as a gas well for allowable purposes, the well shall be subject to allocated gas pool rules.
    (3)   Termination of allocated status. Each allocated gas well shall be subject to allocated gas pool rules until:
    (A)   The Commission establishes special allocated gas pool rules for the common source of supply.
    (B)   The well is reclassified as an oil well for allowable purposes.
    (C)   The Commission issues an order reclassifying the well as an unallocated gas well.
    (D)   The well becomes the only gas well in the pool.
    (E)   The well is abandoned.
    (d)   Special allocated gas pools. Each gas pool for which special pool allocation rules (field rules) are or have been established by the Commission shall be classified as a special allocated gas pool. Each gas well in a special allocated gas pool shall be referred to as a special allocated gas well for allowable purposes.
    (e)   Unallocated gas pools. Each gas pool not classified as an allocated gas pool or as a special allocated gas pool shall be classified as an unallocated gas pool. Each gas well in an unallocated gas pool shall be referred to as an unallocated gas well for allowable purposes.
