                                        RE:   Patrick Petroleum Company
                                              Form S-2 Registration Statement
                                              File No. 33-83634


Dear Mr. Shuman:

         With regard to the above-captioned filing, Patrick Petroleum Company
requests that the S-2 Registration Statement be withdrawn.  The Notes which
were to be registered for sale by their holders were repaid by the Company and
are no longer outstanding.

   Please contact John R. Thomas at (614) 462-5453 if you have any questions.

                                    Very truly yours,

                                    PATRICK PETROLEUM COMPANY
