15-73-201. Lease extended by production — Scope.
(a)(1) The term of an oil and gas, or oil or gas, lease extended by activities on lands in one (1) section or pooling unit, whether established by rule or by order of the Oil and Gas Commission or the lease, shall not be extended to sections or pooling units under the lease where there has been no activity.
(2) This subsection does not prevent the parties to the lease from agreeing to a continuous drilling provision in order to extend the lease term to additional lands drilled or included in another section or unit if the lessor's waiver of the right to terminate the lease to the additional lands, sections, or units where no activity has occurred before the expiration of the lease is fully set forth in the lease or another agreement in bold, enlarged, or other distinctive print.
