(OPERATOR NO. 570410) FOR THE ANDERGRAM UNIT (09496) LEASE, WELL NOS. 3 AND 4, ANDERGRAM (PALO PINTO) FIELD, RUNNELS COUNTY, TEXAS, TO CHANGE THE OPERATOR FROM TKP PETROLEUM, INC. (OPERATOR NO. 860891) TO MISSION ENERGY INC.  \nFINAL ORDER  \nThe Railroad Commission of Texas (“Commission” or “RRC”) finds that after statutory notice and an opportunity for hearing regarding the captioned proceeding, TKP Petroleum, Inc. failed to request a hearing and did not otherwise respond such that this case can proceed as a default. This proceeding having been duly submitted to the Commission at a conference held in its offices in Austin, Texas, the Commission makes the following findings of fact and conclusions of law.  \nFindings of Fact  \n1. On or about March 21, 2019 , Mission Energy Inc. (“Mission”), RRC Operator No. 570410 , filed a single-signature Form P-4 Certificate of Compliance and Transportation Authority (“Form P-4”) requesting that it be designated the Commission operator of record for the Andergram Unit Lease , Lease No. 09496 , Well Nos. 3 and 4 (“Wells”) . The Form P-4 did not contain the signature of the current Commission operator of record for the Wells.  \n2. TKP Petroleum, Inc. (“TKP”), RRC Operator No. 860891 , is the current Commission operator of record for the Wells.  \n3. In a letter dated March 29, 2019 , a Commission Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) requested in writing that TKP either: (1) provide evidence that it holds a “good faith claim” to a continuing right to operate the referenced property; or (2) request a hearing on the matter on or before April 29, 2019. This letter expressly notified TKP that failure to timely request a hearing would constitute waiver of the opportunity to request a hearing for this proceeding. The letter was sent via firstclass mail to TKP’s address of record at the Commission as identified in TKP’s most recent filing of Form P-5 Organization Report (“Form P-5”) .  \n4. A “good faith claim” is defined in Commission Statewide Rule 15(a)(5) as “Afactually supported claim based on a recognized legal theory to a continuing possessory right in the mineral estate, such as evidence of a currently valid oil and  \ngas lease or a recorded deed conveying a fee interest in the mineral estate.” 16 Tex. Admin. Code § 3 . 15(a)(5) .  \n5. TKP failed to provide evidence that it holds a good faith claim to a continuing right to operate the Wells, failed to respond to the ALJ’s March 29, 2019 letter and failed to request a hearing.  \n6. At least ten days’ notice of an opportunity for hearing was given to Mission and TKP.  \n7. To demonstrate its good faith claim to operate the Wells, Mission presented documentation including an oil and gas lease giving Mission the right to operate and produce the minerals from the tract where the Wells are located.  \n8. Mission has a current Form P-5 with a $50,000 bond as its financial assurance. Mission is currently the record operator of 31 wells. Mission’s status at the Commission is active.  \n9. TKP does not have a good faith claim to operate the Wells.  \n10. Pursuant to Tex. Gov’t Code §§ 2001.056 and 2001.062(e), TKP was provided an opportunity to request a hearing and failed to do so.  \n11. Mission has demonstrated a good faith claim to a continuing right to operate the Wells.  \n12. The Wells should be transferred to Mission as operator of record.  \nConclusions of Law  \n1. Proper notice of hearing was timely issued to persons entitled to notice. See, e.g., Tex. Gov’t Code § 2001.051; 16 Tex. Admin. Code §§ 1.42, 1.45.  \n2. The Commission has jurisdiction in this case. See, e.g., Tex. Nat. Res. Code § 81.051.  \n3. TKP does not have a good faith claim , as that term is defined in Statewide Rule 15(a)(5), to continue operating the Wells. 16 Tex. Admin. Code § 3 . 15(a)(5) .  \n4. Mission does have a good faith claim to operate the Wells.
