Nueces County · Chapman Ranch E. (Davis) field · Vertical
Chapman Ranch #237 (API 42-355-03231) is a plugged well in Nueces County, plugged October 3, 2003, last operated by Decker Operating CO. L.L.C..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued May 5, 1993, permitted to 4,566 ft.
It was permitted by Bristol Resources Corporation and has since transferred to Decker Operating CO. L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Its 2 leases have reported 25.7K barrels of oil and 23 mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 7 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
