Burleson County · Giddings (Austin Chalk-3) field · Producing · Horizontal · Sidetrack
James Unit #1 H (API 42-051-32666) is a horizontal well in Burleson County operated by Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC, completed June 30, 1994 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1984 and 1994, permitted to 10,004 ft.
It was permitted by Sage Energy Company and has since transferred to Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 6 formation tops, including Pecan Gap, Austin Chalk, Eagle Ford, Buda.
Its lease has reported 214K barrels of oil and 1.13M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting volume in April 2026. The lease carries 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
