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


Results of Operations

         Three Months Comparison

         -  Marketing

         Gross revenues for the Company's Marketing operations increased by
$24,671,000, 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 for the
first three months of 1995 were $696,000 versus $618,000 in the similar 1994
period.

         - Transportation

         Although strong demand caused transportation revenues to increase by
13% to $5,510,000 for the first three months of 1995, operating margins
decreased by 15 % to $671,000.  Reduced earnings were primarily caused by a
one-time $125,000 charge to write-off the Company's State of Texas operating
authority following deregulation of intrastate trucking rates which went into
effect on January 1, 1995.  The Company had purchased the authority in the
1960's in order to obtain access to the Texas marketplace.  With decontrol of
rates, maintaining of such authority is no longer necessary.  Excluding the
effects of decontrol on the fair value of the Company's operating authority,
the Company has not experienced any adverse effects from decontrol.

         - Oil and Gas

         Oil and gas revenues and operating earnings were each increased by
approximately 140% to $1,612,000 and $1,232,000 respectively as a direct result
of increased oil and gas production

         - 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.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         During the first three months of 1995, the Company invested $3,358,000
in property and equipment additions, with the majority of the investment ($2.4
million) going towards oil and gas drilling efforts.  Funding for these
investments was derived, in part, from the Company generating $1,901,000 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 $1,457,000 of
investment was financed through increased bank debt.

         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 March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 and results of operations and
cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 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.
