(b) No transfer of an interest in a lease, oil and gas exploration license, or permit, including assignments of working or royalty interest, operating agreements, and subleases, is binding upon the state unless approved by the commissioner. The transferor is liable for all obligations under the lease or oil and gas exploration license accruing before the approval of the transfer.

However, the commissioner will take no action and official status records will not be posted to reflect these transfers.
(c) The commissioner will approve a transfer of an undivided interest in a lease, oil and gas exploration license, or permit unless the commissioner makes a written finding that the transfer would adversely affect the interests of the state or the application does not comply with applicable regulations. The commissioner will state the reasons for denial of an application in the finding.
(d) The commissioner will disapprove a transfer of a divided interest in a lease, oil and gas exploration license, or permit if the transfer covers only a portion of the lease, oil and gas exploration license, or permit or a separate and distinct zone or geological horizon, unless the transfer would not adversely affect the interests of the state, the transfer complies with applicable regulations, and the
(1) applicant demonstrates to the commissioner's satisfaction that the proposed transfer of a divided interest is reasonably necessary to accomplish exploration of the area subject to an oil and gas exploration license and exploration or development of the lease or permit;
