Lee County · Giddings (Austin Chalk-3) field · Horizontal
Jan #2RE (API 42-287-30410) is a plugged horizontal well in Lee County, plugged September 14, 2016, last operated by Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1978 and 2004, permitted to 10,000 ft.
It was permitted by U. S. Operating, Inc. and has since transferred to Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report one formation top, including Austin Chalk.
Its 2 leases have reported 44K barrels of oil and 1.92M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
