Chesapeake fracing 320 acres?

I need one of you experts to look at this application and tell me what the dotted lines represent on the unit map.  It looks like Chesapeake is going to drill two wells per section in the Cotton Valley to me.

It's an application and plat for a unit well for a unit that does not currently exists.  Yes, the dotted line that is a 2000' radius from the horizontal well bore is confusing.  However this is just one well and its Perf 1 & 2 locations are in the normal locations.  And the 1650' setback from the east line leaves the correct spacing for two additional wells in that direction.  This is not a 320 acre frac.   The real question is the nature of the redefinition of the LCV by CHK.  It appears the redefinition may pertain to the depth definitions for the LCV and HA in this section.  CHK may wish to drill 8 HA horizontal wells and 8 LCV horizontal wells.  I suspect that would make Mr. Glasscock very happy.

Thanks for the insight.  I can't imagine the horsepower that would be needed to frac that far.
