Report of 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, 1998
and 1997, 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, 1998 and 1997, 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 financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1998, and reportable
transactions for the year then ended, are presented for purpose of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements but are
supplemental information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the
Plan's management. 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 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, 1998

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 U.S. citizen employees of Santa Fe International
Corporation (Santa Fe or the Company) and certain affiliated companies.
Effective January 1, 1998, employees may not actively participate in the Plan
while actively participating in the U.K. Pension Scheme after December 31, 1998.

      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.

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






                                       -8-

<PAGE>   9


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 as soon as practicable following submission of a
completed withdrawal application.

Plan administration

      Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company ("VFTC") became the Plan's trustee
effective December 31, 1998. Prior to VFTC becoming the trustee, Wachovia Bank
of North Carolina was the Plan's trustee.

      During the 1997 and 1998 plan years, participants were able to invest
amounts in their Participant Account in the following: common/collective trusts,
mutual funds and Company ordinary shares. 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





                                      -9-

<PAGE>   10


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 net asset value of
shares of the fund at the close of business on the last business day of the
year. 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.

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 Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue
Service dated May 19, 1997, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore, the related trust
is exempt from taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in
conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan Administrator
believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and
the related trust is tax exempt.

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 that affect
the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Note 7 - Year 2000 (Unaudited)

      The Company has developed a plan to modify its internal information
technology to ensure that the Plan's information systems will be prepared to
handle year 2000 dates. This internal system conversion is expected to be
substantially complete by the end of July 1999. Costs associated with internal
modifications are not estimated to be significant and will be paid by the
Company.

      The Year 2000 conversion project also includes determining whether the
Plan's third party service providers have reasonable plans in place to become
year 2000 compliant as related to the Plan's operations. All third party service
providers have indicated that they are currently substantially compliant, having
completed their internal and external mission-critical conversions no later than
March 1999.

      The company does not expect the year 2000 conversion project to have a
significant effect on plan operations. No contingency plan has been developed,
as Plan management is confident that all required systems will be year 2000
ready.

Note 8 - Party in Interest Transactions

      The Plan invests in shares of mutual funds managed by an affiliate of
VFTC. VFTC acts as trustee for only those investments as defined by the Plan.
Transactions in such investments qualify as party-in-interest transactions which
are exempt from the prohibited transaction rules.

Note 9 - Subsequent Event

      Effective January 1, 1999, the Plan was amended to: (1) define the Plan's
new investment options, (2) provide daily valuation recordkeeping and (3) make
employees eligible for participation in the Plan upon the first day of
employment, except for U.S. domestic based oil well drilling rig employees hired
on or after March 1, 1996, who have to complete 30 days of continuous employment
before being eligible for participation in the Plan.
