Zgabay Edwin D #3RE
Lee County · Giddings (Austin Chalk-3) field · Horizontal
Zgabay Edwin D #3RE (API 42-287-30979) is a horizontal well in Lee County operated by Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC, completed February 3, 2003.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits (amended once) between 1981 and 2006, permitted to 9,915 ft.
It was permitted by Enervest Operating, L.L.C. and has since transferred to Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 9 formation tops, including Austin Chalk, H-Marker, F-Marker, D-Marker.
Its lease has reported 146K barrels of oil and 2.19M mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
