SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application to Withdraw from Listing 
and Registration; (Texas Meridian Resources Corporation, Common Stock, 
$0.01 Par Value) File No. 1-10671

April 21, 1997.
    Texas Meridian Resources Corporation (``Company'') has filed an 
application with the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(``Commission''), pursuant to Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934 (``Act'') and Rule 12d2-2(d) promulgated thereunder, to 
withdraw the above specified security (``Security'') from listing and 
registration on the American Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'' or 
``Exchange'').
    The reasons cited in the application for withdrawing the Security 
from listing and registration include the following:
    The Company has complied with Rule 18 of the Amex by filing with 
such Exchange a certified copy of preambles and resolutions adopted by 
the Company's Board of Directors authorizing the withdrawal of its 
common stock from listing on the Amex and by setting forth in detail to 
such Exchange the reasons for such proposed withdrawal, and the facts 
in support thereof. The Company became listed for trading on the New 
York Stock Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE'') pursuant to a Registration 
Statement on Form 8-A effective March 19, 1997.
    In making the decision to withdraw its Security from listing on the 
Amex, the Company considered the greater visibility and liquidity for 
the Company's Security on the NYSE, resulting in enhanced shareholder 
value.
    Any interested person may, on or before May 12, 1997, submit by 
letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 
Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, DC. 20549, facts bearing upon whether 
the application has been made in accordance with the rules of the 
exchanges and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission 
for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on the 
information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the 
application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission 
determines to order a hearing on the matter.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary.
