                  REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Administrative Board,
Tax-Advantaged Savings Plan
of Pogo Producing Company:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of the Tax-Advantaged Savings Plan of Pogo Producing Company (the
Plan) as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements of changes
in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended. These
financial statements and the schedules referred to below are the responsibility
of the administrative board of the Plan. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and schedules 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 as of
December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for
purposes 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. The supplemental schedules
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit 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.

                         TAX-ADVANTAGED SAVINGS PLAN OF
                             POGO PRODUCING COMPANY


                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN:

General

Pogo Producing Company (Pogo) adopted the Employees Stock Purchase Plan
effective January 1, 1978, as amended July 10, 1981. On January 1, 1985, the
Employees Stock Purchase Plan was amended and renamed the Tax-Advantaged
Savings Plan (the Plan). Any salaried employee of Pogo is eligible to be a
participant of the Plan. Effective January 1, 1994, the Plan was restated to
provide that investment options for participant contributions be expanded to
six investment options which include common stock of the company and five
Vanguard funds.

Effective December 31,1993, Texas Commerce Bank, N.A. (formerly Ameritrust
Texas, N.A.), was removed as trustee for the Plan. Effective January 1, 1994,
John O. McCoy, Jr., an officer of Pogo, was appointed as successor trustee of
the Plan under the terms of an amended and restated trust agreement entered
into effective January 1, 1994. The Plan is administered by an administrative
board appointed by Pogo's board of directors. The members of the
administrative board receive no compensation for their services, and all
expenses of the Plan, including brokerage commissions, are paid by Pogo.

Prior-Year Reclassifications

Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current-year presentation.

Basis of Accounting

The records of the Plan are maintained on the cash basis of accounting and are
adjusted to the accrual basis for financial reporting purposes.

Quoted market prices as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, have been used to
determine the market value of Plan investments.

In 1994, the Plan adopted the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants' Practice Bulletin 12 (Bulletin 12), "Reporting Separate Investment
Fund Option Information of Defined Contribution Pension Plans." The significant
changes include a separate accounting and reporting of participant-directed and
nonparticipant-directed investments. The Plan has given retroactive effect to
the change in reporting required under Bulletin 12 (see Exhibits 1 and 2).

Contributions

Each participant may contribute up to 10 percent of his compensation to the
Plan. In accordance with provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, each
participant's contributions are subject to certain limitations. For 1994, this
Imitation was $9,240. Pogo contributes an amount equal to each participant's
contribution, limited to a maximum of 6 percent of the participant's eligible
compensation. Each participant's account is credited with his or her
contribution, the company-matching contribution and an allocation of plan
earnings. Allocations of earnings are based on the proportion that each
participant's account balance bears to the total of all participant account
balances. Matching funds contributed to the Plan by Pogo are invested only in
Pogo common stock. (See Exhibits 1 and 2 for financial statements by investment
fund.)
<PAGE>   8
Investments

All contributions and dividends prior to January 1, 1985, were used to acquire
Pogo common stock. Funds contributed to the Plan by an employee after January
1, 1985, and the earnings and accretions thereon are invested according to
instructions from the participant. Effective January 1, 1994, the investment
options included the Pogo Common Stock Fund, the Prime Portfolio Money Market
Fund, the Investment Grade Corporate Portfolio Bond Fund, the
Vanguard/Wellington Fund, the Vanguard/Index Trust - 500 Portfolio and the
Vanguard PrimeCap Fund.

The Pogo Common Stock Fund is used to invest in Pogo common stock. All employer
contributions as well as employee-designated monies are placed in this
account. Any dividends are used to purchase additional shares for the Plan.

The Prime Portfolio Money Market Fund (Money Market Fund) invests in
high-quality money market instruments that mature in one year or less.

The Investment Grade Corporate Portfolio Bond Fund (Corporate Bond Fund)
investments are placed in a diversified portfolio of long-term,
investment-grade bonds which, at the time of purchase, were selected from the
four highest grades assigned by Moody's Investors Service or Standard & Poors
Corporation (S&P).

The Vanguard/Wellington Fund (Wellington Fund) contributions are invested in
a diversified and balanced program of investing in bonds and common stocks.
Bonds are held for relative stability of income and principal, while the common
stocks are held for potential growth of capital and income. The fund invests 60
percent to 70 percent of its total assets in common stock.

The Vanguard/Index Trust - 500 Portfolio (Index 500 Fund) investments are
placed in all of the stocks included in the S&P 500 Index in approximately the
same proportions as they are represented in the S&P 500 Index.

The Vanguard PrimeCap Fund (PrimeCap Fund) invests principally in a portfolio
of common stocks selected on the basis of fundamental factors such as
above-average earnings growth and current earnings as compared to the S&P 500
Index, consistency of earnings growth and earnings quality.

Distributions and Withdrawals

Participants are entitled to receive the portion of the Plan equity which
represents their individual contribution. The Plan allows participants to be
fully vested in the portion of the Plan which is represented by Pogo
contributions after two full years of employment with the company.

In the event of death, retirement, disability or termination after vesting, a
participant is entitled to all of his portion of the Plan equity applicable to
Pogo's contributions.

The Plan also provides for a participant's rights of total or partial
withdrawals and suspension of contributions subject to certain limitations with
respect to future participation. Net assets available for distributions as of
December 31, 1994, as reported in the accompanying financial statements differ
from that reflected in the Plan's federal income tax return (Form 5500) by
$5,804 because of a difference in the timing of recognition of certain
requested but unpaid withdrawals.
<PAGE>   9
Forfeitures

A participant terminated for reasons other than death, retirement or disability
forfeits the unvested portion of his Plan equity attributable to Pogo's
contribution. Such forfeiture is held in suspense until the end of the calendar
year.  If the participant returns to employment before the end of the year in
which he terminated, the forfeited amounts are reinstated. In the event the
participant is not reemployed by the end of such year, the forfeitures are used
to reduce future contributions by Pogo. At December 31, 1994 and 1993,
forfeitures held in suspense totaled $111,204 and $104,939.

Termination of the Plan

The Plan may be terminated, amended or modified by Pogo's board of directors at
any time. In the event the Plan is terminated, all participants become vested
and entitled to receive the Plan equity attributable to all contributions made
for the participants by Pogo.

2. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on May 9, 1986, in which the
Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in
compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The
Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. In December
1994, the Plan applied for a new tax determination letter. However, the Plan
administrator and the Plan's legal counsel believe that the Plan is currently
designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, they believe that the Plan was qualified
and the related trust was tax-exempt as of December 31, 1994 and 1993.
