Magnolia Oil & Gas reports preliminary Q4 production of 73-74 Mboe per day

The company states: "Magnolia Oil & Gas announced preliminary Q4 estimated oil and gas production volumes in the range of 73 to 74 Mboe per day, compared to the midpoint of the Company’s earlier guidance of 78 Mboe per day. Two factors led to the production variance compared to previous guidance. First, a single large pad was brought online later than expected during the fourth quarter 2022. This pad is currently fully operational and performing in line with expectations. Second, freezing temperatures impacted both Magnolia’s Karnes and Giddings assets during late December, resulting in some well shut-ins and facility downtime in both areas. Despite the impact of these items in the fourth quarter, Magnolia’s production has since recovered with volumes currently exceeding 80 Mboe per day. The Company’s 2023 guidance remains unchanged, and Magnolia expects to generate full-year 2023 production growth of 10 percent compared to last year, at current product prices."
