Applicant in the above- styled cause seeks an order from the Division creating a special pool, the proposed Quail Ridge; Wolfbone Pool (or pool name for the Wolfbone to be designated by the Division), pursuant to Order No. R-23132, within the W/2 W/2 of Sections 12 and 13, in Township 19 South, Range 34 East, NMPM, Lea County, New Mexico (“Subject Lands”). Applicant proposes that Division’s statewide rules apply to spacing units and well locations within the Quail Ridge; Wolfbone Pool. The vertical extent of the proposed Wolfbone Pool will be the stratigraphic equivalent of the top of the Third Bone Spring, as the upper limit, located at approximately 10,620 feet measured depth, to the stratigraphic equivalent of the base of the Wolfcamp A shale, being the lower limit, located at approximately 11,225 feet measured depth, as found in the triple combo well log for the Quail Ridge 32 State 2 well (API No. 30-025-37703). Applicant will seek an order from the Division for the vertical extent by requesting the contraction of two pools, the Scharb; Bone Spring (Code 55610), as referenced in Cimarex’s Exhibits for the Bone Spring, and the WC-025 G-09S203435D; Wolfcamp (Code 92847), as referenced in Pride’s Exhibits for the Upper Wolfcamp, in a manner that avoids overlap with the proposed Quail Ridge; Wolfbone Pool. The base of the Scharb; Bone Spring (Code 55610) is to be contracted to approximately 10,620 feet, a depth equivalent to the top of the Third Bone Spring, and the top of the WC-025 G-09S203435D; Wolfcamp (Code 92847) is to be contracted to approximately 11,225 feet, the depth of the base of the Wolfcamp A Shale, as found in said triple combo well log of the Quail Ridge 32 State 2 Well (API No. 30-025-37703). To the extent necessary, Cimarex will request authorization for surface commingling. Also to be considered will be the re-opening of Case Nos. 22853 and 23295, for the purpose of continuing the Division’s review of pooling applications filed in said Cases in order to determine operatorship of units and wells proposed by the pooling applications, including Applicant’s pooling application for the Wolfbone Pool underlying the Subject Lands, in which Applicant seeks an order from the Division pooling all mineral interests in the Wolfbone Pool, consisting of the Third Bone Spring and Upper Wolfcamp formations, underlying a standard 320-acre, more or less, horizontal spacing and proration unit comprised of the Subject Lands. The proposed well to be dedicated to the horizontal spacing unit is the Showbiz 13-12 State Com 301H Well, an oil well, to be horizontally drilled from a surface location in the SW/4 SW/4 (Unit M) of Section 13 to a bottom hole location in the NW/4 NW/4 (Unit D) of Section 12. The well will be orthodox, and the take points and completed interval will comply with the setback requirements under the statewide Rules; also to be considered will be the cost of drilling and completing the well and the allocation of the costs thereof; actual operating costs and charges for supervision; the designation of the Applicant as Operator of the wells and unit; and a 200% charge for the risk involved in drilling and completing the well. The Subject Lands are located approximately 20 miles of Southwest of Lovington, New Mexico.
