    Title: Application for the Purchase of Royalty Oil.
    OMB Approval Number: 1010-0042.
    Abstract: In some instances the Government may accept a lessee's 
royalty payment in oil rather than money. Title to this Royalty-In-Kind 
(RIK) oil is transferred to the Government and then is sold to eligible 
refiners. When the Secretary of the Interior determines that small 
refiners do not have access to adequate supplies of oil, the Secretary 
may dispose of RIK oil by conducting a sale, or by allocating the oil 
to eligible refiners. Form MMS-4070, Application for the Purchase of 
Royalty Oil, is submitted by refiners interested in purchasing oil. 
Information collected is used to determine if the applicant meets 
eligibility requirements to purchase royalty oil.
    Bureau Form Number: MMS-4070.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Description of Respondents: Oil refiners.
    Estimated Completion Time: 1 hour.
