                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


Administrator
Derby Refining Company Thrift Plan
Houston, Texas


We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of the Derby Refining Company Thrift Plan (the "Plan") as of
December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of changes in net
assets available for plan 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December
31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits
for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules 1 through
8 and Items 27a and 27d are presented for the purpose of additional analysis
and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974. These schedules are the responsibility of the
Plan's management. Such schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial statements and, in
our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects when considered in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                      DERBY REFINING COMPANY THRIFT PLAN
                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.  Description of the Plan

    General

    The Derby Refining Company Thrift Plan (the "Plan") is primarily an
employee stock purchase plan, registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended designed to provide a systematic means whereby the contributions
of eligible employees and the employer may be invested for the benefit of
the participating employees. The Plan is administered by Coastal Refining &
Marketing, Inc. (the "Company"), a subsidiary of The Coastal Corporation
("Coastal"); and pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, an Administrative
Committee comprised of Coby C. Hesse, Ronald A. Brownlee, Austin M. O'Toole
and E. C. Simpson, all of whom are employees of Coastal, has been appointed
to carry out certain duties under the Plan. Texas Commerce Bank National
Association (the "Trustee") (formerly Ameritrust Texas, N.A.) is the Trustee
of the Plan Trust (the "Trust"). All employees who are eligible for
participation in the Plan receive a prospectus and an employee handbook,
which may be updated by supplements from time to time, containing a general
description of the Plan. The Trustee holds the investment assets of the Plan
and executes transactions relating thereto.

    Termination of the Plan

    Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). In the event of
termination, participants will become 100 percent vested in their accounts.

    In early 1993, Coastal announced curtailment of certain refining
activities of the Company which resulted in a reduction of the number of
participants in the Plan. Those employees whose employment has been
terminated due to such curtailment are 100% vested in their account balance.
Such curtailment resulted in a substantial amount of funds being withdrawn
by participants; however, it had no effect on the ability to pay benefits of
remaining participants.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Principles

    Accounting Basis

    The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis
of accounting.

    Marketable Securities

    Securities valuations are based on the last recorded sales price on
December 31, 1993 and 1992, as reported by the principal securities exchange
on which the security is traded, or the average of the bid and the asked
price if sold over the counter. Realized gains and losses reported on the
sale or withdrawal of securities by participants are based on the difference
between market values of the securities sold and/or issued at the effective
dates and the market value at the beginning of the year and cost of
securities purchased during the year.

    Federal Income Taxes

    The Company received its most recent determination letter dated April
26, 1985 from the Internal Revenue Service which states the Plan meets the
exemption requirements of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the
"Code"); and therefore, the Trust is exempt from taxation under Section
501(a) of the Code. Since that determination, certain amendments have been
made. It is the opinion of management that, on the basis of the Internal
Revenue Service's prior determination, and existing federal income tax laws,
the Plan, as amended, continues to be qualified. Accordingly, no provision
has been made for federal income taxes.

3.  Contributions to the Plan

    Employee Contributions

    Each eligible employee who wishes to participate in the Plan (a
"Participant") may do so by authorizing the Company to make payroll
deductions of two percent (2%) of his basic compensation each pay period.
Basic compensation includes fixed salaries or wages per hour including shift
differential and upgrade pay, but excludes overtime, bonuses, commissions,
and any other additional compensation. The amount of such deduction is paid
by the Company to the Trust and credited to the account of such Participant
in the Trust. Contributions by a Participant may not exceed the limitations
imposed by Sections 415 and 401 of the Code.

    Employee contributions to the Plan are taxed at ordinary income tax
rates as a part of the employees' salary. The employer contributions,
investment income and unrealized appreciation are not taxable to the
employee until withdrawal.

    Employer Contributions

    The Company pays to the Trust, for a Participant's account, an amount
equal to such Participant's contribution. In the event contributions by a
Participant have been suspended, contributions by the Company for such
Participant's account shall likewise be suspended. All contributions by the
Company must be made from its current or accumulated earnings or profits or,
in certain circumstances, from the accumulated earnings or profits of
another member of the same affiliated group of corporations. Company
contributions may not exceed the limitations imposed by Section 415 of the
Code.

    Vesting

    A Participant's balance in the Trust is vested in such Participant at
all times, except that his interest in the Company's contributions and
appreciation and earnings thereon becomes vested at the rate of 20% upon
completion of each whole year included in his Period of Service (as defined
in the Plan) beginning at the end of the second whole year of service; such
vesting continues, on a cumulative basis, until a Participant becomes fully
vested. Any period of time during which a Participant has declined to
contribute to the Plan is not included in the determination of vesting of
Company contributions.
