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


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Year to Date Results of Operations Compared to Prior Year to Date Results

During the current six  month period, the Company  purchased an interest in  the
"Government Bridge"  filed.  The  increase in  production  contributed  by  this
acquisition was not enough to offset  the decrease in revenues resulting from  a
decline in oil and gas pricing. Overall, oil and gas sales dropped 10% from  the
same six  month period  of one  year ago.  The Company  performed a  substantial
amount of work  enhancing the production  on the government  bridge field.  This
resulted in a 112% increase in production  costs over the same six month  period
of one year ago. Exploration costs increased 112% for the current six months  as
compared to the corresponding  six months of the  prior year. This increase  was
due primarily to  the drilling  and write-off of  a dry  hole. Depreciation  and
depletion expense increased 46%, due to an increase in production.

Current Quarter Compared to Previous Quarter

Revenues from oil and gas sales  declined by 7%, due  primarily to a decline  in
oil and gas pricing. Production costs  increased by 144%, primarily due to  work
performed on the Government Bridge field.  Exploration costs declined by 58%  as
there  was  no   drilling  activity  in   the  current   quarter.  General   and
administrative expenses increased by 30%, due primarily to shareholder relations
expenses.

Current Quarter Compared to Corresponding Quarter of Prior Year

Oil and  gas sales  decreased 23%  due to  a  decline in  oil and  gas  pricing.
Production costs increased 165% due primarily  to work on the Government  Bridge
field.  Depreciation  and  depletion  increased  46%  due  to  an  increase   in
production.

Financial Condition

Operating activities for the six month period ending February 28, 1999  provided
$40,500 of cash.  $515,000 was provided  from the private  placement of  374,750
shares of stock.  The primary  use of  these funds  was the  acquisition of  the
Government Bridge field for $384,000. This  acquisition resulted in an  increase
in 122,250 barrels of producing oil reserves. Overall, working capital increased
by $86,000.
