Fayette County · Giddings (Austin Chalk-3) field · Temp Abandoned · Horizontal · Directional · Sidetrack
Leigh #1H (API 42-149-31732) is a horizontal well in Fayette County operated by Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC, completed August 23, 1993 and listed as temp abandoned on the RRC schedule, shut in July 1, 2025.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1984 and 1993, permitted to 11,050 ft.
It was permitted by Chesapeake Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Pecan Gap, Austin Chalk, L. Chalk, Eagle Ford.
Its 2 leases have reported 129 barrels of oil and 1.59M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
