                         BARRETT RESOURCES CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 June 30, 1996


1.  UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
    condensed financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present
    fairly the financial position of Barrett Resources Corporation and its
    wholly owned subsidiaries, collectively referred to as the "Company", as of
    June 30, 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods
    presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

    On July 18, 1995, Plains Petroleum Company ("Plains") was merged with and
    into a subsidiary of the Company and thereby became a wholly owned
    subsidiary. The merger was accounted for using the pooling of interests
    method, and accordingly, the accompanying financial statements have been
    restated to include the accounts and operations of Plains for all periods
    prior to the merger. Due to this restatement, the financial statements
    included in this Form 10-Q are not comparable to the financial statements
    for the same periods as presented in previously filed documents.

    The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to
    the Company's financial statements in Form 10-K for the year ended December
    31, 1995. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
    financial statements and notes included in the Form 10-K.

2.  INCOME TAXES

    Provisions for income taxes were calculated in accordance with Statement of
    Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 which provides that a deferred tax
    liability or asset be determined based on the timing differences between the
    basis used for financial versus tax reporting of assets and liabilities as
    measured by the effective tax rates. For the quarter and six months ended
    June 30, 1996, the Company used an estimated effective tax rate of thirty-
    eight percent.

    The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has examined the federal tax returns of
    Plains for the calendar years 1991, 1992 and 1993. In a report to the
    Company, transmitted by a "30-day letter" that requests a response by the
    Company within a 30 day period, the IRS has proposed a tax deficiency of
    $5.3 million together with penalties of $1.1 million, and an undetermined
    amount of interest. The IRS proposed deficiency resulted primarily from the
    disallowance of certain net operating loss deductions claimed during the
    periods under examination. These net operating losses originally were
    incurred by a company that was acquired by Plains in 1986. The Company
    currently has additional unused net operating loss carryforwards of
    approximately $30 million related to the same acquisition.


                                       7

2.   INCOME TAXES (continued)

     Management disagrees with the IRS position, and the Company has rejected
     the IRS's position by refusing to accept the adjustments proposed in the 
     30-day letter. In management's opinion, the federal tax returns of Plains
     under examination reflect the proper federal income tax liability and the
     existing net operating loss carryforwards are appropriate as supported by
     relevant authority. The Company will vigorously contest these proposed
     adjustments and believes it will prevail in its positions. It is
     anticipated that the final determination of this matter will involve a
     lengthy process.

     During the quarter ended June 30, 1996 the Company acquired oil and gas
     properties in a purchase transaction that qualifies as tax-free exchange
     for tax purposes.  The Company provided deferred income taxes payable of
     $5.0 million for the estimated income tax effect of the difference between
     the financial and tax basis of the properties acquired.

3.   LONG-TERM DEBT

     Effective August 1, 1996, the Company decreased the borrowing limit on its
     reserved-based line of credit to $75 million.  The Company currently has a
     borrowing base of $175 million and may, at its option, increase the
     borrowing limit to the amount of the borrowing base.
 
     During June 1996, the Company repaid all outstanding borrowings of $110
     million under this line of credit with proceeds from its public offering of
     common stock (See Note 4). As of June 30, 1996, the Company had no
     outstanding borrowings.

     Total interest expense incurred for the quarter and six months ended June
     30, 1996 were $2.0 million and $3.6 million, respectively. For the six
     month period, $8,000 of interest expense was capitalized for specific
     projects.

4.   STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     In June 1996, the Company issued 5,400,000 shares of its common stock at
     $26.375 per share in a public common stock offering. Proceeds from the
     offering, net of commissions and other related expenses totaling $7.4
     million, were $135 million. The proceeds were used to eliminate the
     Company's outstanding long term debt and to provide additional capital for
     future capital expenditures.

                                  June 30, 1996


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


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

As of June 30, 1996, total assets were $424.5 million compared to $340.8 million
at  December 31, 1995, an increase of $83.7 million or 25 percent. Cash and
short term investments increased $32.9 million, working capital increased $31.4
million and property and equipment increased $47.0 million. These increases are
attributed to the Company's public offering of common stock and capital
expenditures and acquisitions.

In June 1996, the Company completed a public equity offering of 5.4 million
shares of common stock priced at $26.375 per share.  The proceeds of
approximately $135 million, net of offering costs and expenses, were used to
repay the Company's outstanding long-term debt of $110 million with the balance
available to fund the Company's capital expenditures program.

Operating cash flows before working capital adjustments totaled $34.5 million in
the first six months of 1996 compared with $24.0 million in the same period of
1995.  After working  capital adjustments, cash flow provided by operations
increased by $19.9 million to $37.1 million as compared with 1995.

Capital expenditures of $63.7 million , including acquisitions, for the first
six months, increased $31 million over the same period in 1995.  These
expenditures were funded by operating cash flows, borrowings and issuance of the
Company's common stock and consisted principally of drilling and development
activities of oil and gas properties, and acquisition and development of
producing properties.  Development and expansion activities were focused in the
Piceance, Wind River and Anadarko Basins.   Acquisitions for the second quarter
concentrated on the purchase of additional oil and gas property and gas
gathering interests in the Piceance Basin.

During the year the Company has continued to actively pursue acquisition of
interests in the oil and gas properties and the gathering system that it
operates in the Piceance Basin. During the second quarter the Company completed
one transaction in which it acquired additional interests in the Piceance
properties from two entities for a combination of cash and common stock.
Subsequent to June 30, 1996 the Company issued shares of its common stock to
complete another acquisition of Piceance properties from a group of three
entities. Also during the second quarter, the Company entered into a letter of
intent for acquisition of additional interests in the Piceance properties from a
third set of entities. Although no definitive agreement has been entered into,
this transaction is expected to close in August 1996 as a cash purchase. After
considering anticipated participation in the acquisitions by an industry partner
pursuant to a right of first refusal, and the successful completion of these
transactions, the Company expects to increase its working interest in the
Piceance Basin properties to approximately 62.5 percent.

The Company plans to continue actively acquiring, exploring and developing oil
and gas properties.  Based on the December 31, 1995 reserve estimates, the
borrowing base under the Company's line of credit is $175 million.  The Company
expects cash flow from its producing properties and its borrowing capacity will
be sufficient to fund its anticipated activities.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

The following discussion of operating results is based on historical
consolidated financial information that has been restated to reflect the merger
of the Company and Plains on July 18, 1995 under the pooling of interests method
of accounting.

For the second quarter ending June 30, 1996 net income of $6.6 million or $.25
per share was $3.6 million higher than net income of $3.0 million or $.13 per
share in the second quarter 1995.  The increase in net income is the result of
an increase of $11.5 million in oil and gas production revenue primarily
attributed to higher production volumes and increased average oil and gas sales
prices.  Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $10.1 million or
$.39 per share, an increase  of $4.1 million over net income of $6.0 million or
$.24 per share for the first six months of 1995.

Total revenues for the second quarter of 1996 were $47.4 million, an increase of
$15.8 million  or 50 percent  over the same period in 1995.  A 49 percent
increase in production revenues and a 45 percent increase in trading revenues
were the primary contributing factors to the higher total revenue.  Total
revenues for the first six month period of 1996 were 38 percent higher than the
same period in 1995.

Production revenue for the second quarter of 1996 increased 49 percent to $35.0
million from $23.5 million in 1995. For the six months ended June 30, 1996,
production revenues were up 33 percent to $64.6 million compared with revenues
of $48.5 for the six months ended June 30, 1995. Production revenues and related
volumes and average prices during the periods presented were as follows:

</TABLE>

(Note:  Bcf = billion cubic feet;  Mcf = thousand cubic feet; Mbbls = thousand
barrels)

Second quarter gas revenues increased 59 percent as compared with the same
period in 1995, principally due to a 35 percent increase in production volumes
and an 18 percent increase in average gas prices.   A 25 percent increase in
production volumes accompanied by a 18 cent per Mcf increase in average gas
prices caused gas revenues for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 to be 40
percent higher than the same period in 1995.

Oil revenues  for the second quarter of 1996 were higher by $1.8 million over
1995.  This increase is attributed to higher production volumes, up 8 percent
and a $2.61 per barrel increase in average oil prices.  For the six months ended
June 30, 1996 oil revenues were up $2.2 million from 1995 due to a 4 percent
increase in production volumes and a $1.84 per barrel increase in average oil
prices.

                                       10

In 1996, trading revenues were $10.9 million for the second quarter ($7.5
million in 1995) and $22.9 million for the six month period ($15.3 million in
1995).  The associated costs of trading were $10.2 million and $7.3 million for
the quarter ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and $21.4 million and
$14.7 million for the respective six months in 1996 and 1995.  Gross profit from
trading increased to $.7 million from $.3 million for the quarter and to $1.4
million from $.6 million for the six months as compared to the prior year.

Production hedging expenses totaled $607,000 for the quarter and $1.4 million
for the first six months of 1996 as compared to hedging income of $.5 million
and $.7 million for the 1995 three and six month periods, respectively. These
expenses are recorded in the consolidated statements of income as adjustments of
oil and gas production revenue. As of June 30, 1996, the Company held positions
to hedge production of 4.8 Bcf of gas.

Production costs averaged 59 cents per Mcf of gas equivalent for the second
quarters of 1996 and 1995 and 63 cents and 61 cents for the six months of 1996
and 1995, respectively.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased to $10.9 million from $7.8
million for the quarter and to $20.3 million from $15.9 million for the six
month period.  The increase is principally due to production volume increases.
During the six month periods in 1996 and 1995, depletion on oil and gas
production was recorded at $.56 per Mcf of gas equivalent.

With increased exploration activities, general and administrative costs rose $.4
million in the second quarter and the first six months of 1996 as compared to
the same periods in 1995. These costs are approximately 7 percent and 8 percent
of total revenues for the three and six month periods in 1996 versus 10 percent
for the three and six month periods in 1995.

Interest expense increased from $1.1 million to $1.5 million for the quarter and
from $2.0 to $3.1 million for the six month period.  Increases are directly
attributed to additional borrowing used principally to fund exploration,
development and acquisition of oil and gas properties.

The Company's largest source of operating income is from sales of its gas and
oil production.   Therefore, the levels of the Company's revenues and earnings
are affected by prices at which natural gas and oil are being sold.  This is
particularly true with respect to natural gas, which accounted for approximately
75 percent of the Company's production revenue for the six month period in 1996.
As a result, the Company's operating results for any prior period are not
necessarily indicative of future operating results because of the fluctuations
in gas and oil prices and the lack of predictability of those fluctuations as
well as changes in production levels.
