Okla. Stat. tit. 82, § 82-1020.18: Location exceptions

When it is shown in an individual proceeding that to require the

drilling of a well at the prescribed location should be inequitable

or unreasonable and that criteria and conditions established by the

Board in rules are met, the Board shall authorize a well location

exception and permit the well to be drilled and completed at a

location which varies from that previously established. Rules

promulgated by the Board shall establish the criteria and conditions

under which location exceptions may be authorized. Criteria and

conditions for location exceptions may include, but are not limited

to, compliance with terms to prevent unreasonable impact on other

wells, which terms may include the rate and timing of withdrawal,

the level of perforating and the level of sealing the well.
