NOTICE OF APPLICATION
TO: ALL OIL AND GAS OPERATORS, PRODUCERS AND LESSEES, OIL AND GAS LESSORS AND ROYALTY OWNERS, MINERAL INTEREST OWNERS, LANDOWNERS, OVERRIDING ROYALTY INTEREST OWNERS, OTHER OWNERS OF OIL AND GAS INTERESTS, MORTGAGEES OF OIL AND GAS INTERESTS, AND ALL OTHER PERSONS CONCERNED:
You and each of you are hereby notified that Murfin Drilling Company, Inc. ("MDC") has filed an Application with the Kansas Corporation Commission ("Commission") pursuant to K.S.A. 55-1301, et seq., seeking an order authorizing the unitization and unit operation of the Daisy Unit ("Unit"). The area of the proposed Unit, which will be operated by MDC, includes the SE/4 SE/4 of Section 22, S/2 of Section 23, SW/4 of Section 24, N/2 of Section 25, All of Section 26, N/2 & SE/4 & NE/4 SW/4 of Section 27, and the N/2 of Section 35, all in Township 4 South, Range 31 West, Rawlins County, Kansas.
MDC proposes to unitize the oil and gas rights to a pool within the Unitized Formations underlying the area of the Unit. The Unitized Formations are described as the top of the Toronto formation through to the base of the Lansing-Kansas City formations as shown on Log-Tech's Dual Compensated Porosity Log dated March 9, 2012, for the Daisy #1-27 well, API No. 15-153-20896, to be encountered between the depths of 3,942' and 4,179' measured from Kelly Bushing. MDC intends to conduct a secondary recovery waterflood operation within said pool in order to increase the recovery of oil and gas reserves, and will allocate such production, and the costs thereof, from the Unit in two phases across fourteen tracts within the Unit on a fair, reasonable and equitable basis.
The Application is pending with the Commission. Any persons who object or protest to the granting of the Application shall be required to file their objections or protests in writing with the Commission within 15 days after the date of this publication. If a written protest is not timely filed, the Application may be determined administratively by the Commission and may thereby be granted without hearing or further notice to any interested party. All objections and protests shall clearly state the reasons why granting the Application will violate correlative rights, cause waste, or pollute water resources. Objections or protests shall be mailed to the Kansas Corporation Commission, Conservation Division, 266 N. Main St., Ste. 220, Wichita, KS 67202, with a copy to MDC's attorneys listed below. All parties in any way interested or concerned shall take notice of the foregoing and govern themselves accordingly.
