New Mexico Oil Rules Change Discussed by OCC
The Oil Conservation Commission in Santa Fe heard a major change proposal to prorating oil production. The plan, prepared by OCC staff led by A L Porter, would replace the current ratio system with depth bracket allowances and require bi monthly capacity checks against anticipated market demand to curb waste. The commission also set July and August allowables at the May level: 80 barrels daily in southeast New Mexico and 100 in the northwest.

OCC considers proration rules to adjust oil well limits
The OCC discussed proposed changes to oil well prorationing with industry spokesmen endorsing a system allowing higher allowables in certain pools after reservoir data shows no waste. Depth brackets for 40 acre spacing show reductions beyond 5,999 feet, with 8,000 to 8,999 feet set at 230 barrels daily versus 240 now, and deeper wells facing larger drops. Variances would require notice and hearing and consider transportation, gas, disposal, and rights factors.
