    DELIVERY OF THIS INSTRUMENT TO AN ADDRESS OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE, OR
TRANSMISSION OF INSTRUCTIONS VIA FACSIMILE NUMBER OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH ABOVE,

OF TRANSMITTAL SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL IS
COMPLETED.

    The undersigned acknowledges that he or she has received and reviewed the
prospectus, dated June 21, 1999, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement
dated June 21, 1999 of Key Energy Services, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the
"Company"), and this Letter of Transmittal (the "Letter"), which together
constitute the Company's offer (the "Exchange Offer") to exchange the issued and
outstanding $150,000,000 of 14% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2009, of the
Company for a like principal amount of 14% Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2009,
Series B of the Company. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the
respective meaning given to them in the Prospectus Supplement.

    For each outstanding note accepted for exchange, the holder of such note
will receive a Series B note having a principal amount equal to that of the
surrendered note. The Company reserves the right, at any time or from time to
time, to extend the Exchange Offer at its discretion, in which event the term
"Expiration Date" shall mean the latest time and date to which the Exchange
Offer is extended. The Company shall notify the exchange agent of any extension
by oral or written notice, followed by a public announcement no later than 9:00
a.m., New York City time on the next business day after the previously scheduled
Expiration Date. See "The Exchange Offer--Expiration Date; Extensions;
Amendments" section of the Prospectus Supplement.

    Delivery of outstanding notes is to be made by book-entry transfer to an

pursuant to the procedures set forth in "The Exchange Offer-- Procedures for
Tendering Outstanding Notes" section of the Prospectus Supplement. Holders
tendering notes will acknowledge receipt and agree to be bound by the terms of
the Letter by tendering outstanding notes in accordance with DTC's automated
tender offer program. DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS TO DTC DOES NOT CONSTITUTE DELIVERY
TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT. Holders of outstanding notes who are unable to deliver
confirmation of the book-entry tender of their outstanding notes into the
exchange agent's account at DTC (a "Book-Entry Confirmation") on or prior to the
Expiration Date, must tender their outstanding notes according to the guaranteed

              PLEASE READ THE ACCOMPANYING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

Ladies and Gentlemen:

    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Exchange Offer, the
undersigned hereby tenders to the Company the aggregate principal amount of
outstanding notes indicated above. Subject to, and effective upon, the
acceptance for exchange of the notes tendered hereby, the undersigned hereby
sells, assigns and transfers to, or upon the order of, the Company all right,
title and interest in and to such notes as are being tendered hereby.

    The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full
power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer the notes tendered
hereby and that the Company will acquire good and unencumbered title thereto,
free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and not
subject to any adverse claim when the same are accepted by the Company. The
undersigned hereby further represents (i) that the Series B notes acquired
pursuant to the Exchange Offer are being obtained in the ordinary course of
business of the person receiving such Series B notes, whether or not such person
is the undersigned, (ii) that neither the holder of such outstanding notes nor
any such other person is engaging in, or intends to engage in, a distribution of
the Series B notes, (iii) that neither the holder of such outstanding notes nor
any such other person has an arrangement or understanding with any person to
participate in the distribution of such Series B notes and (iv) that neither the
holder of such outstanding notes nor any such other person is an "affiliate," as
defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), of the Company.

    The undersigned also acknowledges that this Exchange Offer is being made in
reliance on an interpretation by the staff of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"), contained in Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation, SEC
No-Action Letter (available May 13, 1988) (the "Exxon Capital Letter"), Morgan
Stanley & Co., Inc., SEC No-Action Letter (available June 5, 1991) (the "Morgan
Stanley Letter") and Shearman & Sterling, SEC No-Action Letter (available July
2, 1993) (the "Shearman & Sterling Letter"), that the Series B notes issued in
exchange for the outstanding notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be offered
for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by any person, other than
restricted holders, without compliance with the registration and prospectus
delivery provisions of the Securities Act, provided that such Series B notes are
acquired in the ordinary course of such holders' business and such holders are
not engaged in and do not intend to engage in the distribution of such Series B
notes. A restricted holder is a broker-dealer that receives Series B notes for
its own account in the Exchange Offer, where the notes tendered were not
acquired as a result of market-making or other trading activities, or an
affiliate of the Company with the meaning of Rule 405 promulgated under the
Securities Act.

    If the undersigned is not a broker-dealer, the undersigned represents that
it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, a distribution of Series
B notes.

    If the undersigned is a broker-dealer that will receive Series B notes for
its own account in exchange for outstanding notes that were acquired as a result
of market-making activities or other trading activities, it acknowledges that it
will deliver the prospectus in connection with any resale of such Series B
notes; however, by so acknowledging and by delivering the prospectus, the
undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the
meaning of the Securities Act.

    The undersigned acknowledges that if the undersigned is participating in the
Exchange Offer for the purpose of distributing the Series B notes (i) the
undersigned cannot rely on the position of the staff of the SEC in the Exxon
Capital Letter, the Morgan Stanley Letter, the Shearman & Sterling Letter and
similar SEC no-action letters and, in the absence of an exemption therefrom,
must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction of the Series B
notes, in which case the registration statement must contain the selling
security holder information required by Item 507 or Item 508, as applicable, of
Regulation S-K of the Securities Act, and (ii) a broker-dealer that delivers
such a prospectus to purchasers in connection with such resales will be subject
to certain of the civil liability provisions under the Securities Act.

    If the undersigned or the person receiving the Series B notes covered by
this letter is an affiliate (as defined under Rule 405 promulgated under the
Securities Act) of the Company, the undersigned represents to the Company that
the undersigned understands and acknowledges that such Series B notes may not be
offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred by the undersigned or such
other person without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption
therefrom.

    The undersigned will, upon request, execute and deliver any additional
documents deemed by the Company to be necessary or desirable to complete the
sale, assignment and transfer of the notes tendered hereby. All authority
conferred or agreed to be conferred in this Letter and every obligation of the
undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs,
executors, administrators, trustees in bankruptcy and legal representatives of
the undersigned and shall not be affected by, and shall survive, the death,
incapacity or dissolution of the undersigned.
<PAGE>

"The Exchange Offer--Withdrawal Rights" section of the Prospectus Supplement.

    The Exchange Offer is subject to certain conditions set forth in the
Prospectus Supplement under the caption "The Exchange Offer--Conditions to the
Exchange Offer." The undersigned recognizes that as a result of these conditions
(which may be waived, in whole or in part, by the Company), as more particularly
set forth in the Prospectus Supplement, the Company may not be required to
exchange any of the notes tendered hereby and, in such event, the outstanding
notes not exchanged will be credited to an account maintained with DTC as
promptly as practicable after the expiration or termination of the Exchange
Offer.

INSTRUCTIONS" ON THIS LETTER OR (ii) FOR THE ACCOUNT OF AN ELIGIBLE INSTITUTION.
<PAGE>
3.  SPECIAL ISSUANCE INSTRUCTIONS

    In the case of issuance in a different name, the employer identification or
social security number of the person named must be indicated. Holders tendering
notes by book-entry transfer may request that outstanding notes not exchanged be
credited to such account maintained at DTC as such holder may designate.

4.  TAX IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

    Federal income tax law may require that a tendering holder whose notes are
accepted for exchange must provide the Company (as payor) with such holder's
correct Taxpayer Identification Number ("TIN") on Substitute Form W-9 above,
which in the case of a tendering holder who is an individual, is his or her
social security number. If the Company is not provided with the current TIN or
an adequate basis for an exemption, such tendering holder may be subject to a
$50 penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service. In addition, such tendering
holder may be subject to backup withholding in an amount equal to 31% of all
reportable payments made after the exchange. If withholding results in an
overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained. Exempt holders of outstanding
notes (including among others, all corporations) are not subject to these backup
withholding requirements.

    To prevent backup withholding, each tendering holder of notes should provide
its correct TIN by completing the "Substitute Form W-9" set forth above,
certifying that the TIN provided is correct and as to certain other matters. If
the tendering holder of notes is a nonresident alien or foreign entity not
subject to backup withholding, such holder should provide a completed Form W-8,
Certificate of Foreign Status. These forms may be obtained from the exchange
agent. If the notes are in more than one name or are not in the name of the
actual owner, such holder should consult the instructions on Internal Revenue
Service Form W-9, which may be obtained from the exchange agent, for additional
guidance on which TIN to report. If such holder does not have a TIN, such holder
should apply for a TIN, check the box in Part 2 of the Substitute Form W-9 and
write "applied for" in lieu of its TIN.

5.  TRANSFER TAXES

    The Company will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the transfer
of notes in exchange for outstanding notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer. If
however, Series B notes and/or substitute outstanding notes not exchanged are to
be delivered to, or are to be registered or issued in the name of, any person
other than the registered holder of the notes tendered hereby, or if tendered
notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing
this Letter, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the
transfer of outstanding notes to the Company or its order pursuant to the
Exchange Offer, the amount of any such transfer taxes (whether imposed on the
registered holder or any other persons) will be payable by the tendering holder.
If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is not
submitted herewith, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed directly to
such tendering holder.

6.  WAIVER OF CONDITIONS

    The Company reserves the absolute right to waive satisfaction of any or all
conditions enumerated in the prospectus.

7.  NO CONDITIONAL TENDERS

    No alternative, conditional, irregular or contingent tenders will be
accepted. All tendering holders of notes, by execution of this Letter, or by
tendering the outstanding notes via DTC's automated tender offer program, as the
case may be, shall waive any right to receive notice of the acceptance of their
notes for exchange.

    Neither the Company, the exchange agent nor any other person is obligated to
give notice of any defect or irregularity with respect to any tender of
outstanding notes nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give
any such notice.

8.  REQUESTS FOR ASSISTANCE OR ADDITIONAL COPIES

    Questions relating to the procedure for tendering, as well as requests for
additional copies of the prospectus, prospectus supplement and this Letter, may
be directed to the exchange agent, at the address and telephone number indicated
above.
