Neither this chapter nor the filing of a lien permitted under this chapter affects the time at which legal title to the oil and gas may pass from an interest owner or operator to a first purchaser or the ownership of the oil and gas before severed as reflected by the records affecting real property or the right of a first purchaser to take or receive oil and gas under the terms of a division order or similar agreement for the sale and purchase of oil or gas. Notwithstanding this chapter, a first purchaser or purchaser is free to transport products out of the state and to sell the products without permission or release of lien.
