1Opinion of the Court

SETH, Circuit Judge.

This litigation commenced as interpleader actions brought in the District of Kansas. However, they were related to parallel litigation in Oklahoma and our opinions in the Oklahoma appeals were made applicable to the Kansas trials.

Our remand opinion of these Kansas cases appears as Northern Natural Gas Co. v. Grounds, 666 F.2d 1279 (10th Cir.). On remand the trial court heard testimony and received evidence directed to the “work-back” method for the valuation of the intermingled helium at the wellhead. This supplemented evidence introduced at this first trial.
