GENERAL ENERGY RESOURCES AND TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
Notes to Financial Statements
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Property and Equipment
The Company utilizes the successful efforts method of accounting
for its oil and gas exploration and development program. Under
this method of accounting, costs of drilling and completing
successful wells are capitalized, while costs of dry holes are
charged to expense when incurred. Depletion and amortization of
producing leasehold and mineral interests and related intangible
development costs are provided by the unit-of-production method
based on estimates of recoverable oil and gas reserves prepared
by independent petroleum engineers. Lease and well equipment is
depreciated over its estimated useful life (seven years) by the
straight-line method.
Costs of nonproducing leasehold and mineral interests are not
amortized but are charged to operations when such properties are
abandoned, surrendered, determined to be worthless or transferred
to producing properties and depleted when successfully developed.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred.
Renewals and betterments are capitalized. When assets are sold,
retired or otherwise disposed of, applicable costs and
accumulated depreciation and depletion are removed from the
accounts and the resulting gain or loss is recognized.
Interest Capitalization
Interest costs applicable to the drilling and equipment of in-
progress and shut-in oil and gas wells are capitalized until such
time as the wells begin producing. There were no entries for
interest capitalization during 1995 and 1994.
Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of
shares outstanding.
(2) Non Cash Transactions
Sept. 30, Dec. 31,
1995 1994
The Company had the following
non cash transactions during
the periods ending September 30,
1995 and December 31, 1994 -0- -0-
(3) Long-Term Debt
On June 1, 1990, the Company signed a $292,814 promissory note
with Mosbacher Energy Company (MEC) for the amount owed MEC by
General Energy corporation for well operations as of May 7,
1990. The note is secured by the Company's interest in eleven
producing properties operated by MEC and bears interest at 7 1/4
percent per annum. Monthly payments are the lesser of $20,000 or
the month's production from the secured properties.
In 1991, the Company recorded approximately $873,500 of long-term
debt on the Tulare Lakes Field. This represents the Company's
25% share of the outstanding debt on the field. The debt is to
be paid from production. This is a non recourse debt. General
Energy is not a party to the purchase contract between Chevron
and Penteco and American Barter. In 1993, the Company sold a 1%
interest in the field, leaving an outstanding balance of $944,985
for the Company's share of Tulare Lakes debt which includes
accrued interest.
(4) Interim Statements
The Company believes that the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments (including appropriate
provision for depreciation, depletion and amortization normally
determined at year end) necessary to present fairly the financial
position as of September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, and the
results of operations for the nine months ended September 30,
1995 and 1994. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
Interim financials should not necessarily be considered to be
indicative of the results of operations for the entire year.
(5) Contingencies
The prices of the Company's natural gas production are subject to
the regulations of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(FERC). The Company believes it has substantially complied with
regulations as issued.

PART I
Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Conditions and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
The Company's total earned revenue for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 totaled $347,065. This represents a decrease
of 3% from the same period in 1994. The decrease in revenue is
largely the result of a decrease in oil and gas revenue and
turnkey working interest income.
The Company's total expenses of $458,983 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 increased 16% from the same quarter in
1994. The most significant increases occurred in general and
administrative expense and lease operating expenses. The
increase in general and administrative expense is largely the
result of additional payroll expense which is offset by an
increase in consulting fee revenue.
The Company's net loss for the nine months ended September 30,
1995 was <$111,918> compared to a loss of <$36,984> for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994.
Liquidity/Capital Resources
Net cash decreased $49,124 to <$3,734> at September 30, 1995
compared to $45,390 at September 30, 1994.
Management feels that cash flows will be sufficient to pay
current operating liabilities and to amortize the remaining
current portion of its long-term debt, given its participation in
several successful oil and gas discoveries and the change in
operations of the large California project (Tulare Lakes) that
experienced significant cost overruns in 1992, 1993 and 1994.
Management has developed contingency plans to obtain additional
capital by the issuance of debt or sale of equities to the extent
that these actions become necessary in the future.
