§ 522.083. Order for compulsory unitization: Limitations on area of pool to be included in plan
1. The order of the Division must define the area of the pool or portion thereof to
be included within the unit area and prescribe with reasonable detail the plan of
unitization applicable thereto. 2. Each unit and unit area must be limited to all or a portion of a single pool. Only so much of a pool as has been defined and determined to be productive of oil

by the evidence that the area to be so included within the unit area is of such size

the unitized method of operation for which the unit is created, and that the conduct
