Applicant seeks to initially dedicate the above-referenced spacing unit to the proposed Twinkle 2601 Federal Com 121H well, to be horizontally drilled from a surface location in the SE/4 NW/4 (Unit F) of Section 26, T20S-R32E, with a first take point in the NW/4 SW/4 (Unit L) of Section 26, T20S-R32E, and a last take point in the SE/4 SE/4 (Unit P) of irregular Section 2, T21S-R31E. This proposed standard horizontal well spacing unit will overlap the following existing or proposed horizontal wells spacing units in the Bone Spring formation:
• A proposed 482-acre spacing unit comprised of this same acreage in the intervals above and below the Second Bone Spring interval to be dedicated to the Twinkle 2601 Federal Com 131H well proposed by MRC; and
