Summary/Abstract

This paper examines oil and gas unitization statues and statutes creating groundwater districts to find legislative regimes useful for achieving pore space ownership aggregation. The paper also compares existing pore space aggregation statutes in the United States, which achieve aggregation of pore space ownership through either unitization or eminent domain. It identifies Wyoming as the state that appears to be the best equipped to deal with aggregation of pore space ownership.
