Section 20.25.230. Measurement, allocation, and reporting of well production.

	(a)  Production from each well must be measured to determine the quantities of oil, gas, and water, using equipment and techniques acceptable to the commission as accurate and reliable. Production from a group of wells, property, or unit may be measured as a whole, if individual well test facilities and allocation methods acceptable to the commission are employed to test and allocate production to each well at least monthly.  
	(b)  The volumes of produced gas, oil, and water must be reported monthly for each well on the Monthly Production Report (Form 10-405) or by an alternate format, including electronic means, acceptable to the commission. A well must be identified by its API number and the name designated by the operator under 20 AAC 25.005(f). Production from a well with multiple well branches must be aggregated and reported under the API number and well name of the primary wellbore.
