Know all by these presents, that the undersigned, Janine J. McArdle (the
"Reporting Person"), hereby
constitutes and appoints each of Mark J. Mize and David S. Elkouri as the
Reporting Person's true and lawful
attorney-in-fact to:

(1) prepare, execute in the Reporting Person's name and on the Reporting
Person's behalf, and
submit to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") a
Form ID, including
amendments thereto, and any other documents necessary or appropriate to obtain
codes, passwords, and
passphrases enabling the Reporting Person to make electronic filings with the
SEC of reports required by
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any rule or regulation
of the SEC;

(2) execute for and on behalf of the Reporting Person in the Reporting Person's
capacity as an
officer or director of Halcon Resources Corporation (the "Company"), Forms 3, 4
and 5 in accordance with
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), and the rules
thereunder;

(3) do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the Reporting Person
which may be
necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form 3, 4 or 5, complete
and execute any
amendment or amendments thereto, and timely file such form with the SEC and any
stock exchange or
similar authority; and

(4) take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the
foregoing which, in the
opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, and in the best interest
of, or legally required by, the
Reporting Person, it being understood that the documents executed by such
attorney-in-fact on behalf of the
Reporting Person pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and
shall contain such terms and
conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such attorney-in-fact's
discretion.

The Reporting Person hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power and
authority to do and
perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite, necessary or proper to
be done in the exercise of
any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and
purposes as the Reporting Person
might or could do if personally present, with full power of Substitution or
revocation, hereby ratifying and
confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-in-fact's substitute
or substitutes, shall lawfully do
or cause to be done by the virtue of this power of attorney and the rights and
powers herein granted. The
Reporting Person acknowledges that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in serving
in such capacity at the
request of the Reporting Person, are not assuming, nor is the Company assuming,
any of the Reporting
Person's responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the Reporting
Person is no longer
required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 with respect to the Reporting Person's
holdings of, and transactions in,
securities issued by the Company, unless earlier revoked by the Reporting Person
in a signed writing
delivered to the foregoing attorney-in-fact.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Reporting Person has caused this Power of Attorney to be
executed as of
this 15th day of June, 2018.
