3.	take any necessary or appropriate action to obtain or regenerate codes and
passwords enabling the undersigned to make electronic filings with the SEC of
such Form or Schedules; and

4.	take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the foregoing
that, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in the best
interest of, or legally required of the undersigned, it being understood that
the documents executed by the attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned
pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such
terms and conditions as the attorney-in-fact may approve in the
attorney-in-fact's discretion.
The undersigned hereby grants to the attorney-in-fact full power and authority
to do and perform each 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 undersigned might or could
do if personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby
ratifying and confirming that the attorney-in-fact substitute, shall lawfully do
or cause to be done by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and
powers herein granted. The undersigned acknowledges that the foregoing
attorney-in-fact, and his substitutes, in serving in such capacity at the
request of the undersigned, are not assuming (nor is Contango Oil & Gas Company
assuming) any of the undersigned's responsibilities to comply with Section 16 or
Section 13 of the Act.

The undersigned agrees that such attorney-in-fact may rely entirely on
information furnished orally, electronically or in writing by the undersigned to
the attorney-in-fact. The undersigned also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
Contango Oil & Gas Company and such attorney-in-fact against any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in these respects) that arise out of or are
based upon any untrue statements or omissions of necessary facts in the
information provided by the undersigned to Contango Oil & Gas Company or such
attorney-in-fact for purposes of executing, acknowledging, delivering or filing
Form 3, 4 or 5, Form 144 or Schedule 13D and 13G (including amendments thereto)
and agrees to reimburse Contango Oil & Gas Company and the attorney-in-fact on
demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with
investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action.

This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5, Form 144 and
Schedules 13D and 13G (including amendments thereto) with respect to the
undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities issued by Contango Oil
& Gas Company unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing
delivered to the foregoing attorney-in-fact; provided, however, that this Power
of Attorney shall automatically terminate with respect to such attorney-in-fact
at such time as the attorney-in-fact ceases to be an officer or employee of
Contango Oil & Gas Company or any of its affiliates. This Power of Attorney does
not revoke any other power of attorney that the undersigned has previously
granted.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to be
executed as of the date written below.
