Giddings lies in the Austin Chalk and Eagle Ford Shale Regions

Giddings and Lee County lie in the NE sector of the 24 county Eagle Ford Shale Region and within the heart of the Austin Chalk, which lies just above the Eagle Ford.  Thanks to new drilling technology, the Eagle Ford Shale has been one of the hottest oil plays in the United States in recent years.  While the Austin Chalk formation stretches across numerous fields in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi, and is currently producing good results in natural gas and oil, the Eagle Ford remains one of the most actively drilled targets for oil and gas in the United States.
