The Fermi LAT source 1FGL J1018.6-5856 has been recently identified as a high-mass gamma-ray binary (Corbet et al., ATel #3221). The source was observed with Chandra ACIS-I (ObsID 11831) on 2010-08-17 from 01:17 to 04:04 UTC, which corresponds to the binary phase interval from 0.312 to 0.319 (phase uncertainty ±0.024; zero phase corresponds to the gamma-ray flux maximum at the reference epoch MJD 55403.3+/-0.4, period 16.58+/-0.04 d, according to ATel #3221).
