Wharton County · Magnet Withers E. (Frio) field · Producing · Vertical
East Magnet Withers Frio Unit #3A (API 42-481-32967) is a well in Wharton County operated by Mcgowan Working Partners Inc., completed May 7, 1986 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 18, 1986, permitted to 6,000 ft.
It was permitted by Terra Resources, Inc. and has since transferred to Mcgowan Working Partners Inc. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Catahoula, Fario F-1 Sand, Frio.
Its lease has reported 193K barrels of oil and 59K 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.
