being penetrated shall be drilled or left open, except at the direction of the
Supervisor, without the application of mud-laden fluid or other means to
prevent the escape of oil or gas while further drilling in or through such
stratum.
(b) All fresh waters and
waters of present or probable future value for domestic, commercial, or stock
purposes shall be confined to their respective strata and shall be adequately
protected.
(c) Before any oil or
gas well is completed as a producer, all oil, gas and water strata above and
below the producing horizon shall be sealed or separated in order to prevent
their contents from passing into other strata.
