Introduction
When an oil and gas field is unitized, the various owners of the tracts above the reservoir work together to extract the reservoir’s oil and gas. The Unitization Agreement aims to protect the interests of all parties involved while also avoiding some legal pitfalls. As a single petroleum reservoir spans two fields that are covered by separate petroleum licences or production-sharing contracts owned by different oil corporations, unitization was established as a strategy to restrict the impact of competitive drilling.
