Application of Marathon Oil Permian LLC for compulsory pooling, Eddy County, New Mexico. Applicant seeks an order from the Division pooling all uncommitted mineral interests within a standard 640-acre, more or less, Bone Spring horizontal spacing unit underlying S/2 of Sections 28 and 29, Township 22 South, Range 27 East, NMPM, Eddy County, New Mexico. This spacing unit will be dedicated to the Magellan BS Fee 501H and Magellan BS Fee 502H wells, to be horizontally drilled. The wells will be drilled at orthodox locations. The completed interval for the Magellan BS Fee 501H well is expected to be less than 330 feet from the adjoining tracts thereby allowing for the inclusion of the proximity tracts within the proposed spacing unit. Also to be considered will be the cost of drilling and completing said wells, the allocation of these costs as well as the actual operating costs and charges for supervision, designation of Marathon as operator of the wells, and a 200% charge for risk involved in drilling said wells. Said area is located approximately 0.5 miles south of Carlsbad, Carlsbad New Mexico.
