Item 1.     Financial Statements.

     The financial statements of the Coastal 1987 Drilling Program, Ltd., a
Texas limited partnership, (the "Program"), are presented herein and are
unaudited, except for balances as of December 31, 1995, 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

     The Partnership Payout balance was reduced by $57,000 in the second quarter
to $9,553,000 as of June 30, 1996, compared to the original balance of
$14,141,000 at the start of the Program. Partnership Payout will not have been
achieved at termination of the Partnership on January 1, 1997.

     A cash distribution of $2.00 per limited partnership unit was made for the
second quarter of 1996, bringing total distributions since inception of the
Program to $230.30 per $1,000 unit.

     The General Partner purchased all the 190 limited partnership units
tendered during the 1996 purchase offer period in accordance with the Agreement
of Limited Partnership.

                              Results of Operations

     The Company's results of operations for the comparable three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

     Revenues from the sale of production in the second quarter of 1996
increased $9,000 (6%) over the 1995 second quarter. Natural gas revenues were up
$16,000 (36%) reflecting an increase in the net weighted average price of
natural gas to $2.02 per thousand cubic feet in the second quarter of 1996 from
$1.22 per thousand cubic feet in the second quarter of 1995 partially offset by
a decrease in production volumes to 28 million cubic feet in the 1996 second
quarter compared with 34 million cubic feet in the 1995 second quarter. Crude
oil, condensate and natural gas liquids revenues decreased $7,000 (6%),
reflecting a decrease in production volumes to 6,538 barrels from 6,923 barrels
partially offset by an increase in the net weighted average price of crude oil,
condensate and natural gas liquids to $16.64 per barrel in the 1996 second
quarter from $15.16 per barrel in the 1995 second quarter.

     The decrease in natural gas volumes was primarily attributable to normal
production declines.

     Lease operating expense decreased $4,000 (4%) primarily attributable to
decreased maintenance expenses. Administrative fee decreased $2,000 (11%) as a
result of a restructuring of the fee by the General Partner. Depreciation and
amortization expense decreased $15,000 (38%) primarily as a result of decreased
rates and decreased production volumes.

     Revenues from the sale of production in the first half of 1996 increased
$16,000 (5%) over the 1995 first half. Natural gas revenues were up $11,000
(11%) as the average price, net of severance taxes, increased to $1.87 per
thousand cubic feet in the first six months of 1996 from $1.26 in the first half
of 1995, partially offset by a decrease in production volumes to 57 million
cubic feet in the first half of 1996 from 76 million cubic feet in the first
half of 1995. Crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids revenues increased
$5,000 (2%), reflecting an increase in the weighted average price, net of
severance taxes, to $16.39 per barrel in the first half of 1996 from $14.89 per
barrel in the first half of 1995, partially offset by a decrease in production
volumes to 13,682 barrels in the first half of 1996 from 14,009 barrels in the
first half of 1995.

     The decreases in natural gas production and crude oil, condensate and
natural gas liquids volumes in the first half of 1996 were primarily the result
of normal production declines.

     Lease operating expense decreased $28,000 (12%) in the first half of 1996
due primarily to decreased operations and maintenance expenses. The
administrative fee decreased $4,000 (11%) in the first half of 1996 as a result
of a restructuring of the fee by the General Partner. Depreciation and
amortization decreased $28,000 (35%) in the same period primarily due to
decreased rates and decreased production volumes.
