North Dakota Drilling Non-Consent Provisions
Persons interested in bidding on Tract OG-11-01142 should become familiar with ârisk penaltyâ provisions found in Section 38-08-08 of the North Dakota Century Code (NDCC) and Section 43-02-03-16.3 of the North Dakota Administrative Code (NDAC).
Provided certain conditions are satisfied, NDCC 38-08-08 allows the owner to impose a penalty on other interests in the wellâs spacing unit if those other interests decline to join in the risks and costs of drilling.
The North Dakota Industrial Commission oversees application of the risk penalty law and has adopted a rule to implement it. The rule is found in Section 43-02-03-16.3 of the NDAC.
NDCC 38-08-08 states that if the nonparticipating ownerâs interest is not subject to a lease, the risk penalty is 50%, and that if the nonparticipating ownerâs interest is derived from a lease, the risk penalty is 200%. These risk penalty percentages are applied to the nonparticipating ownerâs share of the reasonable actual costs of drilling and completing the well, and may be recovered only out of production from the pooled spacing unit.
In order to enforce a risk penalty, the owner, must make an unsuccessful, good faith attempt to have the unleased owner execute a lease - or - must make an unsuccessful, good faith attempt to have the leased owner join in and participate in the risk and cost of drilling. âGood faith attemptâ is more fully described in NDAC 43-02-03-16.3.
As it pertains to Tract OG-11-01142, the Commissioner of University & School Lands, cannot warrant which risk penalty will be assessed for non-participation.
The procedures and process outlined in NDCC 38-08-08 and NDAC 43-02-03-16.3 should be referenced and followed. Risk penalty disputes are decided by the North Dakota Industrial Commission. A dispute whether a risk penalty attaches to Tract OG-11-01142 and its interests, and if so the amount of the risk penalty, would be addressed at a hearing held by the Industrial Commission.
