Definition

Identifies the bearer group, which is used in burdening in PRA. "Burdening" in PRA is the process of the working interest owners "bearing" the costs from a PRA venture for the royalty interest (RI) owners.

A bearer bears the costs associated with exploration/development and production. The bearer group describes the relationship (obligations and percentage share) that each working interest owner has to their respective royalty interest owners.

The bearer group is linked to a division of interest to indicate the working interest owners that are responsible for paying the non-working interest owners. The bearer group is also used to determine working interest owners' gross revenue interest (GRI), which is used to determine working interest (WI) owners' entitled volumes for marketing and production.

The following are the bearer group types:

- Carried bearer group (links WI owners with CI owners)

- Royalty bearer group (links WI owners with RI owners)
