C. F. Braun & Co. v. Corporation Commission

1 The Oklahoma Corporation Commission (Commission) established thirteen separate common sources of supply under a 640 acre tract. These thirteen separate common sources of supply had been spaced and constituted thirteen separate and distinct drilling and spacing units within the 640 acre tract. Leonard S. Fowler, appellee, filed an application to pool the thirteen common sources of supply or spacing units in the 640 acre tract under 52 O.S. 1977 Supp., ? 87.1 (e). Appellee proposed to drill a test well to the Hunton formation which was 13,500 feet below the surface. Appellants, owners of some leasehold interests under the 640 acre tract, proposed to drill a test well to the Morrow Sand which was 11,000 feet.
