                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

         Six Months Comparison

         - Marketing

         Gross revenues for the Company's Marketing operations increased by
$55,498,000, or 19%, in the comparative current period as a result of generally
higher overall world crude oil prices. In contrast to higher crude oil prices,
the Company's purchases of crude oil at the wellhead remained consistent at
approximately 45,000 barrels per day. The Company's strategy for crude oil
marketing is to link purchase and sales contracts to established quotations
(postings) that move with general market trends. In this manner, profitability
is based on the spread between the going price paid to suppliers at the wellhead
and the price received from customers at various delivery points less
transportation. Thus, the Company is substantially insulated from the impact of
general movements in world crude oil prices. Because of the Company's crude oil
marketing strategy, higher world crude oil prices had little or no impact on
current operating margins. Marketing division operating margins before
depreciation for the first six months of 1995 were $1,444,000 versus $1,368,000
in the similar 1994 period.

         - Transportation

         Strong demand caused transportation revenues to increase by 10% to
$11,003,000 for the first six months of 1995, however, operating margins before
depreciation decreased by 17% to $1,425,000. Reduced earnings are primarily a
result of narrowing operating margins as the Company's cost structure has
increased while trucking rates have remained constant. In addition, the Company
is still in the process of increasing its sales volumes to better match its
expanded terminal facility and fleet capacity. As an improved balance between
sales volumes and service capacity is obtained, profitability should improve
dramatically.

         - Oil and Gas

         Oil and gas revenues and operating earnings before depreciation and
depletion tripled in the current period to $3,676,000 and $2,912,000
respectively as a direct result of increased oil and gas production volumes
stemming from the Company's recent drilling efforts. Volumes and prices compare
as follows:

</TABLE>

         - Other

         The provision for depreciation, depletion and amortization is increased
in the current quarter with increased capital costs associated with the
Company's recent oil and gas drilling activity. Interest expense is also
increased because the company increased its level of debt to finance such
drilling activity.

         Three Month Comparison

         Variations for the comparative three month period ended June 30, 1995
are consistent with the discussion above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         During the first six months of 1995, the Company invested $4,935,000 in
property equipment additions with the majority of the investment ($3.5 million)
going towards oil and gas drilling efforts. Funding for these investments was
derived in part from the Company generating $4,432,000 of working capital funds,
defined as the sum of net earnings plus the non-cash provisions for depreciation
and deferred income taxes not owing as a result of the Company's tax loss
carryforward position. The additional $503,000 of investment was financed
through increased bank debt. Due to depressed natural gas prices combined with
marginal results from the Company's most recent drilling efforts, the Company
has slowed its rate of investment in new oil and gas drilling. In this manner,
the Company's historic balance between working capital generated from operations
and capital spending is maintained.

         Refer to the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section of the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994 for additional
discussion of the Company's bank relationships, tax loss carryforwards and other
matters.

                        CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited but, in
the opinion of the Company's management, include all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position at June 30, 1995 and results of operations and cash flows for the six
months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994. Certain information and note disclosures
normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations, although the
Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. It is suggested these condensed financial statements
be read in conjunction with the financial statements, and the notes thereto,
included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K. The interim
statement of operations is not necessarily indicative of results to be expected
for a full year.
