Chapman, J. O. #57 (API 42-355-30415) is a plugged well in Nueces County, plugged March 29, 2004, last operated by Texaco Inc..

The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 23, 1986, permitted to 8,000 ft.

It was permitted by Texaco Producing Inc. and has since transferred to Texaco Inc. on the wellbore schedule.

Its lease has reported 15.4K barrels of oil and 22.6K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in April 2004. The lease carries 4 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
