I have a question as to why an operator can continue to sell oil every few months, shown in the disposition category of the railroad commission’s production numbers, but be producing much more than is being sold.

One possible explanation is that they produce and store in the tanks on site. They may not sell until the oil tanker truck comes by and picks it up and the oil is sold.

Not sure how much extra room they have in the tanks to hold the remaining oil. Contact your operator and ask. Also, another working interest owner may be selling their own, so double check on that option as well.
