Hidalgo County · Tabasco (Consolidated) field · Producing · Vertical
Chapa Gas Unit #7 (API 42-215-32587) is a well in Hidalgo County operated by Hilcorp Energy Company, completed February 1, 1999 and listed as producing on the RRC schedule.
The RRC has issued 2 drilling permits (amended once) between 1998 and 2002, permitted to 8,936 ft.
It was permitted by Totalfinaelf E&P USA Inc and has since transferred to Hilcorp Energy Company on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 13.4K barrels of oil and 1.22M mcf of gas since February 1999, last reporting volume in April 2026. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
