Item 1.  Financial Statements.

     The financial statements of the Coastal 1986 Drilling Program, Ltd., a
Texas limited partnership (the "Program"), are presented herein and are
unaudited, except for balances as of December 31, 1994, and therefore are
subject to year-end adjustments; however, all adjustments which are of a normal
recurring nature and, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
statement of the results of operations for the periods covered have been made.
Such results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
year due to seasonal variations and market conditions affecting gas and oil
sales and corresponding unit prices.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.


                         Liquidity and Capital Resources

      A cash distribution of $1.05 per limited partnership unit was made for the
third quarter of 1995, bringing total distributions since the Program began
operations to $952.85 per $1,000 unit. Partnership Payout was achieved in
October 1992.


                              Results of Operations

      The Program's results of operations for the comparable three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 are as follows:

      Revenues from the sale of production in the third quarter of 1995
decreased $63,000 (42%) from the 1994 third quarter. Crude oil, condensate and
natural gas liquids sales decreased $9,000 (14%) as production volumes decreased
to 3,642 barrels in the third quarter of 1995 from 3,910 barrels in the same
quarter of 1994 and the weighted average price, net of severance taxes,
decreased to $14.02 per barrel in the third quarter of 1995 from $15.41 per
barrel in the same quarter of 1994. Natural gas sales decreased $54,000 (62%) as
production volumes decreased to 29 million cubic feet for the third quarter of
1995 from 56 million cubic feet in the same quarter of 1994, and the average
price, net of severance taxes, decreased to $0.90 per thousand cubic feet in the
third quarter of 1995 from $1.26 in the same quarter of 1994.

      The decrease in natural gas volumes in the third quarter of 1995 was
primarily attributable to decreased production from the Bitter Creek Field in
Utah due to market conditions in the area. The decrease in crude oil, condensate
and natural gas liquids volumes in the third quarter of 1995 was due primarily
to normal production declines.

      Lease operating expense decreased $5,000 (7%) in the third quarter of 1995
primarily due to decreased production taxes. Depreciation and amortization
expense increased $130,000 (186%) in the third quarter of 1995 due primarily to
a non-cash charge of $165,000 being recorded in the third quarter of 1995 in
order that the net investment in gas and oil properties would not exceed the
estimated future net revenues from proved reserves, computed at current prices,
and discounted at 10% as required under the full-cost method of accounting for
gas and oil properties, partially offset by decreased equivalent production
volumes.

      Revenues from the sale of production in the first nine months of 1995
decreased $373,000 (53%) from the first nine months of 1994. Natural gas sales
decreased $372,000 (70%) as production volumes decreased to 125 million cubic
feet in the first nine months of 1995 from 287 million cubic feet in the first
nine months of 1994, and the average price, net of severance taxes, decreased to
$1.00 per thousand cubic feet in the first nine months of 1995 from $1.47 in the
first nine months of 1994. Crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids sales
decreased $1,000 as production volumes decreased to 10,710 barrels in the first
nine months of 1995 from 11,853 barrels in the first nine months of 1994,
partially offset by an increase in the weighted average price, net of severance
taxes, to $14.93 per barrel in the first nine months of 1995 from $13.61 per
barrel in the first nine months of 1994.

      The decrease in natural gas volumes in the first nine months of 1995 was
primarily attributable to decreased production from the Bitter Creek Field in
Utah due to market conditions in the area. The reduction in crude oil,
condensate and natural gas liquids volumes was primarily due to normal
production declines.

      Lease operating expense decreased $79,000 (28%) in the first nine months
of 1995 primarily due to decreased production taxes. Depreciation and
amortization expense decreased $21,000 (7%) in the same period primarily due to
decreased equivalent production volumes, partially offset by a non-cash charge
of $165,000 being recorded in the third quarter of 1995 in order that the net
investment in gas and oil properties would not exceed the estimated future net
revenues from proved reserves, computed at current prices, and discounted at 10%
as required under the full-cost method of accounting for gas and oil properties.
