Report of Ernst & Young LLP, Independent Auditors


Administrative Committee
Santa Fe Investment Savings & Profit Sharing Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the Santa Fe Investment Savings & Profit Sharing Plan as of December 31, 1997
and 1996, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at
December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the changes in its net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules
of assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1997, and reportable
transactions for the year then ended, are presented for purposes of complying
with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, and are
not a required part of the basic financial statements. The Fund Information in
the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statements of
changes in net assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of
additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for benefits
and changes in net assets available for benefits of each fund. The supplemental
schedules and Fund Information have been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

                SANTA FE INVESTMENT SAVINGS & PROFIT SHARING PLAN

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                December 31, 1997


NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

General

      The Santa Fe Investment Savings & Profit Sharing Plan (the Plan), was
established on April 1, 1986 as successor plan to the Profit Sharing and
Retirement Plan For The Employees of the Santa Fe International Corporations
(the Profit Sharing Plan), the Santa Fe Investment Savings Plan, and the Stock
Bonus Plan for the Employees of the Santa Fe International Corporations. The
Plan is offered primarily to employees of Santa Fe International Corporation
(Santa Fe or the Company) and certain affiliated companies who are U.S.
citizens.

      Although it has not expressed any intention to do so, the Company may, by
election of its Board of Directors, terminate the Plan. In the event of such
termination, the assets of the Plan shall be distributed to the participants in
proportion to their respective interests therein.

      The following description of the Plan provides only general information.
Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description
of the Plan's provisions.

Contributions

      An eligible employee may contribute either before-tax and/or after-tax an
amount equal to but not less than 1% nor more than 15% of his monthly
compensation and the Company must contribute an amount equal to 100% of the
aggregate employee contributions, up to a maximum of 5% of the employee's
monthly compensation, up to specified maximum amounts allowed by law.



                                     - 4 -

Plan accounts

      A separate account (the Participant Account) is maintained for each
participant in the Plan. The Participant Account includes each participant's
individual contributions to the Plan and his proportionate share of Company
contributions and the related investment earnings thereon. In addition, the
Participant Account also includes, if applicable, each participant's interest in
the other employee benefit plans of the Company previously merged into the Plan,
except as noted below with respect to the Company's contributions to the Profit
Sharing Plan.

      An additional separate account (the Company Account) is maintained for
each participant in the Plan who was also a participant in the Profit Sharing
Plan. The Company Account includes each participant's proportionate share of the
Company's prior contributions to the Profit Sharing Plan and the related
investment earnings thereon. In connection with the merger of the Profit Sharing
Plan into the Plan, no further Company contributions will be made to a
participant's Company Account. In the event a participant becomes eligible for
retirement benefits under the Pension Plan for the Employees of the Santa Fe
International Corporations (the Pension Plan), such benefits are initially
funded through amounts in his or her Company Account and excess amounts, if any,
are funded through the Pension Plan's net assets.

Vesting and distributions

      A participant's interest in his or her Participant and Company Account is
fully vested. The participant has the right to withdraw all or a part of his or
her interest in the Participant account, except that voluntary withdrawals of
Company contributions are not permitted until two years have elapsed from the
time such contributions are credited to the participant's account. In addition,
contributions made on a pre-tax basis in connection with the 401(k) option
generally cannot be withdrawn, except in the case of serious financial
hardships. Withdrawal of earnings on investments made under the 401(k) option
after December 31, 1988 is not permitted in any case.

      Upon termination of employment, distribution of a participant's vested
interest in the Plan is made within 45 days after the end of the month in which
a completed withdrawal application is submitted.

Plan administration

      Wachovia Bank of North Carolina is the Plan's trustee under a simple trust
arrangement.

      The Plan allows participants to invest amounts in their Participant
Account in the following common/collective trusts, mutual funds and Company
ordinary shares: the Money Market Fund, the S&P 500 Fund, the Bond Fund, the
Asset Allocation Fund, the Market Completion Fund, the International Equity Fund
and, beginning in August, 1997, in ordinary shares of the Company (Santa Fe
stock). The Money Market Fund is invested in investment grade fixed income
securities with maturities of less than one year. The S&P 500 Fund is invested
in common stock of the Standard & Poor's 500 stock index. The Bond Fund holds
various corporate, agency and government bonds from a representative sample of
the Shearson Lehman Government/Corporate Bond Index. The Asset Allocation Fund
seeks to provide stable long-term growth by investing in a mix of stock and bond
mutual funds and money market funds to outperform a static benchmark of 65%
stocks as represented by the S&P 500, 30% bonds as measured through the Lehman
Brothers Long Term Treasury Bond Index and 5% cash. The Market Completion Fund's
goal is to match the performance of the Wilshire 4500 Index, a composite of U.S.
publicly traded stocks of small and medium sized companies not represented in
the S&P 500. The International Equity Fund holds carefully chosen assets of
primarily non-U.S. companies that offer higher than average growth potential. As
with any investment, there is some risk associated with the S&P 500, Bond, Asset
Allocation, Market Completion, and International Equity Funds, as well as with
Santa Fe stock, as the value of the investment will increase or decrease
depending on the overall performance of the stock or bond market. The Profit
Sharing Fund is not subject to participant elections

and is invested separately by the Plan's Administrative Committee or its
representatives.

      Administrative expenses that are specifically identified with a particular
Fund are charged to that Fund. Other expenses, such as recordkeeping,
accounting, audit, insurance and legal fees, are proportionately allocated among
the Funds.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investment valuation

      Investments in Santa Fe stock are valued at the closing price per share as
listed on the New York Stock Exchange on the last business day of the year.
Investments in mutual funds are valued on the basis of the closing sale price as
of the last business day of the year or, in the absence of a recorded sale, the
last available closing price. The fair value of investments in common/collective
trusts are determined periodically by the respective trusts' custodian based
upon the current market values of the underlying assets of the funds.



                                     - 7 -

Net investment income

      Dividend income is accrued on the ex-dividend date and interest is
recorded on the accrual basis. Net appreciation/(depreciation) in fair value of
investments include both realized and unrealized gains and losses. Realized
gains (losses) from security transactions are based on the average cost of the
securities sold. Unrealized gains (losses) on investments are measured by the
change in the difference between the market value and cost of the securities
held at the beginning of the year and end of the year.


Income tax status

      The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
letter dated May 19, 1997, that the Plan and related trust are designed in
accordance with the applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The
Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the
Plan Administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being
operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.

Interfund transfers

      Interfund transfers and the related receivable (payable) primarily
represent participant and/or Administrative Committee elections to change
investment funds.

Use of Estimates

      The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

      Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in the accompanying
financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.

      The Plan places its certificates of deposit and commercial paper
investments with high credit quality financial institutions or corporations and
by policy, limits the amounts of credit exposure to any one financial
institution or corporation.

      Concentrations of risk with respect to investments in common/collective
trusts, mutual funds and Santa Fe stock is limited due to the high quality of
the investments underlying the funds and to the dispersion of the underlying
investments across many different industries and companies.

Note 7 - Year 2000 Issue (unaudited)

      The Plan Sponsor has developed a plan to modify its internal information
technology to be ready for the year 2000 and has begun converting critical data
processing systems. The project also includes determining whether third party
service providers have reasonable plans in place to become year 2000 compliant.
The Plan Sponsor currently expects the project to be substantially complete by
early 1999. The Plan Sponsor does not expect this project to have a significant
effect on plan operations.
