Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 3637 — Definitions is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

“Working interest” means an interest held in lands by virtue of fee title, including lands held in trust, a lease, operating agreement, or otherwise, under which the owner of such interest has the right to drill for, develop, and produce oil and gas. A working interest shall be deemed vested in the owner thereof even though his right to drill or produce may be delegated to an operator under a drilling and operating agreement, unit agreement, or other type of operating agreement.
