R 324.602 Tolerance from regularly calculated production.

Rule 602. (1) A permittee of a well shall be allowed to make up underproduction of oil and gas if the underproduction is not more than 3 days' allowable production from each well for a calendar month. The underproduction of oil and gas from each well shall be adjusted by the permittee during the next calendar month. (2) If in a reservoir under multiple ownership an emergency condition arises which is beyond the control of the permittee of the well and which prevents the permittee from producing his or her regularly scheduled allowable production or prevents the purchaser from running his or her regularly scheduled amounts of oil or gas during a calendar month and the underproduction is more than 3 days' allowable production, then the permittee may apply in writing to the supervisor for permission to make up the underages. The supervisor or authorized representative of the supervisor may grant the request if reservoir waste does not occur. (3) In a well that has produced over its daily oil allowable by more than 3 days or its daily gas allowable by more than 30 days, the permittee of the well shall cease producing the well or further limit the oil or gas production as approved by the supervisor or authorized representative of the supervisor until the overage is made up.
