In addition, the applicant requested that the maximum penalty allowed under the OGCA be applied to a tract owner’s share of the costs of drilling the well to, and completing it in, the formations named in the order, if the tract owner does not pay the costs within 30 days of the later of the pooling order being issued, the tract owner being notified in writing of its share of actual costs, or the well commencing production.
