Cora #2RE
Lee County · Giddings (Austin Chalk-3) field · Horizontal · Sidetrack
Cora #2RE (API 42-287-30735) is a horizontal well in Lee County operated by Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC, completed July 13, 1983.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits between 1980 and 2004, permitted to 10,100 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 174K barrels of oil and 2.78M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 5 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
