70-2-15. Allocation of allowable production among fields when division limits total amount of production.

Whenever, to prevent waste, the division limits the total amount of crude petroleum oil to be produced in this state, it shall allocate or distribute the allowable productions among the fields of the state. Such allocation or distribution among the fields of the state shall be made on a reasonable basis, giving, if reasonable under all circumstances, to each pool with small wells of settled production, an allowable production which will prevent a general premature abandonment of the wells in the field.
