Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 3655
The three-fourths interests referred to in Sections 3642, 3649, and 3651 shall be determined as follows:
(c) The pro rata interest of each royalty interest owner shall be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total value of the primary tract assignment and secondary tract assignment of the tract or tracts in which he has a royalty interest, in accordance with his fractional share of such interest, if any, and the denominator of which shall be the value determined under subdivision (a).
If there are no royalties outstanding with respect to a tract or tracts of land included within or proposed to be included within a unit area, then for the purpose of determining the three-fourths of royalty interests the working interest owners in any such tract of land shall be deemed to be the owners of a royalty with respect to such tract in the same proportion as their ownership of the working interest therein.
