Chapman #3 (API 42-083-31212) is a plugged well in Coleman County, plugged January 7, 2008, last operated by Chapman & Wright Oil Enterprise.

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued August 4, 1977, permitted to 2,500 ft.

It was permitted by Alexander, K. C. and has since transferred to Chapman & Wright Oil Enterprise on the wellbore schedule.

Completion filings report one formation top, including Oil Sand.

Its lease has reported 1.16K barrels of oil and 24 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The lease carries 3 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

The sources disagree, which usually means a transfer or a lease-level production filing by a different entity. Petrora goes with the schedule.
