Application of Devon Energy Production Company, L.P. to Amend Order R-23414 to Pool an Overlapping Horizontal Gas Spacing Unit Rather Than an Oil Spacing Unit, Eddy County, New Mexico. Applicant in the above-styled cause seeks to amend Order R-23414 to pool an 800-acre overlapping horizontal gas spacing unit rather than a horizontal oil spacing unit in an interval of the Bone Spring formation underlying the S2 of Section 9, the S2 of Section 10, and the SW4 of Section 11, Township 21 South, Range 27 East, NMPM, Eddy County, New Mexico. Order R-23414, issued in Case 24428, pooled an overlapping horizontal oil spacing unit in an interval of the Bone Spring formation underlying the S2S2 of Section 9, the S2S2 of Section 10, and the S2SW4 of Section 11, Township 21 South, Range 27 East, NMPM, Eddy County, New Mexico. This oil spacing unit is currently dedicated to the proposed Bent Tree 9-11 State Com 224H, to be horizontally drilled from a surface location in the SW4 of Section 9, with a first take point in the SW4SW4 (Unit M) of Section 9 and a last take point in SE4SW4 (Unit N) of Section 11. Devon seeks to amend the pooling order to accommodate the placement of the well in a gas pool rather than the anticipated oil pool. This proposed 800-acre gas spacing unit will overlap the 800-acre spacing unit approved under Order R-23415 for the Bent Tree 9-11 State 337H and 338H wells to be drilled in a deeper interval of the Bone Spring formation. Said area is located approximately 5 miles northeast of Carlsbad, New Mexico.
