Chapman J. O. #116 (API 42-355-30776) is a plugged well in Nueces County, plugged May 13, 2004, last operated by Neg Operating LLC.
The RRC has issued 3 drilling permits between 1982 and 1998, permitted to 7,950 ft.
It was permitted by Shell Western E&P Inc. and has since transferred to Neg Operating LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 5 formation tops, including Lagarto, Oakville, Catahoula, Anahuac.
Its 2 leases have reported 1.95K barrels of oil and 66.1K mcf of gas since January 1993, last reporting in May 2004. The leases carry 2 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.
