               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS 

To the Board of Directors
Double Eagle Petroleum and Mining Company
Casper, Wyoming


The accompanying condensed balance sheet of Double Eagle Petroleum and Mining
Company as of May 31, 1996 and the related statements of operations for the
three and nine month periods ended May 31, 1996 and 1995 and condensed
statements of cash flows for the nine month periods ended May 31, 1996 and 1995
were not audited by us and, accordingly we do not express an opinion on them.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the balance sheet as of August 31, 1995, and the related statements
of operations and retained earnings and cash flows for the year then ended (not
presented herein); and in our report dated October 19, 1995, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying balance sheet as of August 31, 1995,
is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the balance sheet from
which it has been derived.

                    DOUBLE EAGLE PETROLEUM AND MINING COMPANY
                ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

During the nine months ended May 31, 1996, the Company's operations resulted in
negative working capital. The $261,500 decrease was due to the Company incurring
a major workover on one of its producing properties in the current quarter and
purchasing a producing property in the previous quarter. These transactions
were initially paid for with borrowed funds with a majority of the debt being
repaid in the current and previous quarter.

Management believes that the Company's liquidity is sufficient to meet future
cash needs for operations. It is not anticipated that future material sales of
oil and gas properties will be made solely to raise working capital.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

Current Year-to-Date Compared to Corresponding Year-to-Date
- -----------------------------------------------------------

The Company has experienced a net loss for the current year of $(19,153)
compared to a net income for the prior period of $159,028. The change is due
mainly to the sale of several of the Company's nonproducing properties in the
first quarter of the prior year, yielding a profit of $363,600, compared to the
sale of nonproducing properties in the current year yielding a profit of
$115,600.

Revenue from oil and gas sales increased by approximately $65,900 in the current
period compared to the same period one year ago. This increase can be attributed
to a workover performed on one of its producing properties and the purchase of a
producing properties in the first quarter of the current year. 

Production costs and taxes increased by approximately $32,400 to coincide with
the increase in oil and gas sales revenue.

Exploration costs decreased considerably when compared to the same period one
year ago. The $97,500 decrease is mainly attributable to not as many of the
Company's nonproducing leases being abandoned and fewer rental payments being
made due to the abandonments in the prior year.

Overall costs and expenses decreased by approximately $231,500 when compared to
the prior year, due mainly to a decrease in the cost of properties sold.

Interest income decreased by approximately $9,600 due to a decrease in funds
being available for investments as they were used to purchase producing
properties in the current year.
 
Current Quarter Compared to Previous Quarter
- --------------------------------------------

Revenues from oil and gas sales increased by approximately $52,200 compared to
the previous quarter.  Oil and gas revenues for the quarter ended May 31, 1996
were $128,600 and were $76,400 for the quarter ended February 29, 1996. This
increase was due mainly to the aforementioned workover on one of the Company's
producing properties. 

Production costs, including taxes, decreased by approximately $12,600 during the
current quarter when compared to the previous quarter. The decrease can be
attributed to ad valorem taxes being paid in the previous quarter.

Exploration costs increased when compared to the previous quarter by $25,900.
This increase is attributed to higher valued nonproducing leases expiring in the
current quarter than in the previous quarter.

General and administrative costs decreased by approximately $15,700 compared to
the quarter ending February 29, 1996. This decrease was due to the cost
attributable to the Company's annual meeting in the previous quarter.

                ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
            FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) 

Current Quarter Compared to Previous Quarter (Continued)
- --------------------------------------------------------

Interest income remained fairly stable when compared to the previous quarter.
                
Depreciation and depletion expense decreased by approximately $10,800 compared
to the previous quarter. This decrease can be attributed to a revised estimate
of reserves from a producing property following a workover in the current
quarter. This resulted in a decrease in the depletion ratio used to calculate
depletion on the property.

Operations in the current quarter resulted in a $1,398 net loss compared to net
income of $34,360 for the previous quarter. The aforementioned sale of
nonproducing properties caused the majority of the change.

Current Quarter Compared to Corresponding Quarter
- -------------------------------------------------

Oil and gas revenues increased by $32,500 compared to the same quarter in 1995
due to better prices and production from newly acquired producing properties.

Sales of and cost of sales of oil and gas properties decreased drastically when
compared to the corresponding quarter due to the sale on a nonproducing property
in the corresponding quarter and no sales in the current quarter.

Production costs, including production taxes, increased by $12,100 compared to
the same quarter one year ago. This increase coincides with the increase in
revenue and the increase in operating expenses for repairs to one of the
Company's producing properties in the current quarter.

Exploration costs decreased by $23,900 when compared to the corresponding
quarter in 1995. This decrease is mainly attributed to the abandonment of
nonproducing leases during the corresponding quarter.

General and administrative and depreciation and depletion remained fairly stable
between the two quarters.

The change in net (loss) of $25,100 can be attributed to the aforementioned sale
of nonproducing property in the corresponding quarter.
