Thanks Clint. Looks like Lee M1 may be a vertical monitoring well.

What exactly is its purpose? Does the driller use this well to determine the best possible depth of the horizontal wells?

Service well --

A well drilled, completed, or converted for the purpose of supporting production in an existing field. Wells of this class also are drilled or converted for the following specific purposes: gas injection (natural gas, propane, butane or fuel-gas); water injection; steam injection; air injection; salt water disposal; water supply for injection; observation; and injection for in-situ combustion.
