Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Legal Matters From time to time, the Company is or may become involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. Certain of the Magnolia LLC Unit Holders and EnerVest Energy Institutional Fund XIV-C, L.P. (collectively the “Co-Defendants”) and the Company have been named as defendants in a lawsuit where the plaintiffs claim to be entitled to a minority working interest in certain Karnes County Assets. The litigation is in the pre-trial stage. The exposure related to this litigation is currently not reasonably estimable. The Co-Defendants retained all such liability in connection with the Business Combination. A mineral owner in a Magnolia operated well in Karnes County, Texas filed a complaint with the Texas Railroad Commission (the “Commission”) challenging the validity of the permit to drill such well by questioning the long-standing process by which the Commission granted the permit. After the Commission affirmed the granting of the permit, and after judicial review of the Commission’s order by the 53rd Judicial District Court Travis County, Texas (the “District Court”), the District Court reversed and remanded the Commission’s order. The Commission and Magnolia have appealed the District Court’s judgment to the Third Court of Appeals in Austin, Texas. At June 30, 2022, the Company does not believe the outcome of any such disputes or legal actions will have a material effect on its consolidated statements of operations, balance sheet, or cash flows. No amounts were accrued with respect to outstanding litigation at June 30, 2022 or June 30, 2021. Environmental Matters The Company, as an owner or lessee and operator of oil and natural gas properties, is subject to various federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to discharge of materials into, and the protection of, the environment. These laws and regulations may, among other things, impose liability on a lessee under an oil and natural gas lease for the cost of pollution clean-up resulting from operations and subject the lessee to liability for pollution damages. In some instances, the Company may be directed to suspend or cease operations in an affected area. The Company maintains insurance coverage, which it believes is customary in the industry, although the Company is not fully insured against all environmental risks. Risks and Uncertainties The Company’s revenue, profitability, and future growth are substantially dependent upon the prevailing and future prices for oil and natural gas, which depend on numerous factors beyond the Company’s control such as overall oil and natural gas production and inventories in relevant markets, economic conditions, the global and domestic political environments, regulatory developments, and competition from other energy sources. Oil and natural gas prices historically have been volatile and may be subject to significant fluctuations in the future. The coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic and related economic repercussions have created significant volatility, uncertainty, and turmoil in the oil and natural gas industry. While oil and natural gas prices have increased since 2020, the extent of any further impact of the pandemic, including the emergence and spread of variant strains of COVID-19, on the Company’s industry and business cannot be reasonably predicted at this time. Further, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in the first quarter of 2022, and global sanctions placed on Russia in response, have had and may continue to have a global impact on supply and demand for oil and natural gas. Magnolia continues to monitor any impacts from the Russia-Ukraine war on the global markets for its commodities.
