Chapman J. O. #89H (API 42-355-30517) is a plugged well in Nueces County, plugged November 10, 2025, last operated by Decker Operating CO. L.L.C..
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued April 26, 1995, permitted to 7,750 ft.
It was permitted by Royal Production Company, Inc. and has since transferred to Decker Operating CO. L.L.C. on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 3 formation tops, including Lagarto, Oakville, Catahoula.
Its 5 leases have reported 14.1K barrels of oil and 242K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in July 2026. The leases carry 27 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
