                  FUTURE ACQUISITION 1995, LTD.
                  (a Texas limited partnership)

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
           (The period subsequent to December 1996 is unaudited.)

1. ORGANIZATION

Future Acquisition 1995, LTD. No. 1 Limited Partnership (the 
Partnership), a Texas limited partnership, was formed on December 
13, 1995 and is engaged primarily in the exploration, development 
and operation of oil and gas properties.  The general partner is 
Future Petroleum Corporation (Future), a Texas corporation, which 
in such capacity is responsible for, among other things, the 
management of the affairs of the Partnership.  EnCap Equity 1994 
Limited Partnership (EnCap), a Texas limited partnership, and Energy 
Capital Investment Company PLC (ECIC), an English investment company,
are limited partners.

On April 18, 1996, Future, EnCap and ECIC amended the original 
partnership agreement dated December 13, 1995 to specify additional 
contribution requirements, for each partner, associated with increased 
funding necessary to develop certain fields.

On January 29, 1997, the partners amended and restated the original 
partnership agreement to reflect funding and operating changes 
resulting from the Partnership's additional property acquisition in 
January 1997.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the 
accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles.  Preparation of financial statements in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles and estimation of oil and 
gas reserves require management to make estimates and assumptions 
that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and 
accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of the Partnership's financial instruments, 
which include cash, trade accounts receivable and accrued liabilities,
approximate fair value because of their short-term nature.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of all demand deposits 
and investments in money market funds with original maturities of
three months or less when purchased, stated at cost which is equivalent
to market value.

Oil and Gas Properties
The Partnership follows the successful efforts method of accounting 
for oil and gas acquisition, exploration and development costs.  Under 
this method, costs of successful exploratory wells, development wells, 
lease and well-head equipment and all costs incurred in acquiring 
mineral leasehold interests are capitalized.  Exploratory dry hole 
costs and other exploration costs, including geological and geophysical 
costs, delay rentals and production costs are expensed as incurred.  
Unproved properties are assessed periodically on a property-by-property 
basis and any impairment in value is currently charged to expense.

<PAGE>

Capitalized costs relating to producing properties are depreciated and 
depleted on the unit-of-production method.  Proved developed reserves 
are used in computing unit rates for drilling and development costs, 
and total proved reserves are used for depletion of leasehold costs.

Capitalized costs are evaluated for impairment based on an analysis of 
future net cash flows in accordance with Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of 
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of".

Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; major renewals and
improvements are capitalized.  Gains and losses arising from sales of 
properties are included in income.

Organization Costs
The costs of organizing the Partnership are capitalized and amortized 
over a 60-month period.

Placement Fees
Placement fees are charged directly against partners' capital 
contributions when paid.  During the year ended  December 31, 1996, 
placement fees of $18,762 and $31,238 were charged to the capital 
accounts of ECIC and EnCap, respectively.

Income Taxes
No provision for federal income taxes is included in the accompanying 
financial statements.  Since the Partnership is not subject to 
taxation, the tax effects of its activities accrue to the individual 
partners.  The Partnership's tax returns are subject to examination 
by the federal and state taxing authorities.  If such examinations 
result in adjustments, the tax liability of the partners, if any, 
would accordingly be adjusted.

Unaudited Information
The balance sheet as of September 30, 1997 and the statements of 
operations for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 
1996 were taken from the Company's books and records without audit.  
However, in the opinion of management, such information includes all 
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are 
necessary to properly reflect the financial position of the Company 
as of September 30, 1997 and the results of operations for the nine 
month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

3.  OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

In December 1995, the general partner assigned to the Partnership 
its rights and obligations in interests in producing properties 
located in Carson, Gray and Hutchinson Counties, Texas.  The 
properties contributed by the general partner to the Partnership 
were assigned a value of $765,450.  Additionally, the Partnership 
purchased further interests in properties located in Carson, Gray 
and Hutchinson Counties, Texas and interests in producing properties 
located in Midland County, Texas for $610,000 and $440,000, 
respectively.  The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases.  
The results of operations of the properties assigned and acquired 
are included in the Partnership's results of operations effective 
December 1995.

During January 1997, the Partnership acquired interests in certain 
producing properties located in Moore County, Texas for an adjusted 
purchase price of $2.1 million.  Associated with this acquisition, 
EnCap and ECIC made capital contributions of $1,041,382 each.  Also, 
Future contributed $100,000 cash and 180,000 shares of its restricted
common stock.

4.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Future, as operator of the Partnership's oil and gas properties, 
receives revenues and pays costs and expenses associated with the 
properties and then allocates such activity as appropriate to the 
respective working interest and royalty owners.  During the year 
ended December 31, 1996, the Partnership received oil and gas revenues 
from Future of $1,081,161.  As of September 30, 1997 and December 31, 
1996, accounts receivable of $329,722 and $218,217, respectively  were
due from Future.  During the year ended December 31, 1996, Future was 
reimbursed $767,738 for operating expenses and capitalized costs 
incurred on behalf of the Partnership.  Accounts payable due to 
Future as of September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 were $148,235 
and $60,527, respectively.

In connection with the formation of the Partnership in December 1995, 
the parent of the general partner issued warrants to EnCap and ECIC 
entitling them to purchase 156,192 and 93,808 shares of the parent's 
common stock at a specified exercise price.  Additionally, to provide 
the limited partners additional consideration for agreeing to the 
amendment dated April 18, 1996, the parent of the general partner 
issued warrants to EnCap and ECIC entitling them to purchase 23,429 
and 14,071 shares of the parent's common stock at a specified exercise 
price.  EnCap and ECIC have not exercised these warrants as the market 
price has been below the exercise price for the applicable exercise 
period.  The value associated with these warrants is not material and 
has not been reflected in the respective partners' accounts.

5.  ALLOCATION TO PARTNERS

The Partnership agreement provides, among other things, that revenues 
and expenses, excluding depletion, depreciation and amortization expense 
which generally is allocated to the partners in proportion to each 
partner's relative capital contributions, generally are allocated 15% 
to the general partner and 85% to the limited partners, except for the 
Moore County properties which are allocated 3% to the general partner 
and 97% to the limited partners until such time the limited partners 
receive a 20% internal rate of return on their investment.  After the 
limited partners receive a 20% internal rate of return, the revenues 
and expenses are allocated 75% to the general partner and 25% to the 
limited partners.

The Partnership agreement, as amended, in effect during the year ended 
December 31, 1996, provides that the Partnership maintain minimum 
ratios of 1.70 to 1 and 1.35 to 1, calculated as discounted projected 
net revenues divided by total proved reserves and total proved producing 
reserves, respectively.  The limited partners have waived this provision 
of the Partnership agreement.

The allocation among the limited partners is 62.4768% to EnCap and 
37.5232% to ECIC, except for the Moore County properties, which is 
50% to each of EnCap and ECIC.


6.  MAJOR CUSTOMERS

Oil and gas sales to three customers constitute a significant 
percentage of the Partnership's revenues.  There are adequate buyers 
or purchasers of the Partnership's production such that management 
believes the loss of one or more of these customers would not have a 
material adverse effect on the results of operations of the Partnership.

<PAGE>

7.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the course of its business affairs and operations, the Partnership 
is subject to possible loss contingencies arising from federal, state 
and local environmental, health and safety laws and regulations and 
third-party litigation.  There are no matters which, in the opinion of
management, will have a material adverse effect on the financial 
position or results of operations of the Partnership.

8.  FINANCIAL DATA FOR OIL AND GAS PRODUCING ACTIVITIES (UNAUDITED)

During the year ended December 1, 1996, the Partnership incurred 
development costs of $508,393.  The Partnership incurred no 
acquisition or exploration costs in 1996.

9. OIL AND GAS RESERVE DATA (UNAUDITED)

The following table, based on information prepared by independent 
petroleum engineers, summarizes changes in the Partnership's net 
interest in proved reserves of crude oil and condensate and natural 
gas, all of which are domestic reserves:

                                           Oil               Gas
                                          (BBLS)            (MCF) 
     				                ---------------------------
Balance, January 1, 1996                 183,000          1,852,000

Proved developed reserves:
January 1, 1996                          143,000          1,573,000 
December 31, 1996                        164,000          1,623,000 

Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil, 
condensate and natural gas which geological and engineering data 
demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future 
years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating 
conditions.  Proved developed oil and gas reserves are reserves that 
can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing 
equipment and operating methods.  The above estimated net interests 
in proved reserves are based upon subjective engineering judgments and 
may be affected by the limitations inherent in such estimation.  The 
process of estimating reserves is subject to continual revision as 
additional information becomes available as a result of drilling, 
testing, reservoir studies and production history.  There can be no 
assurance that such estimates will not be materially revised in 
subsequent periods.

<PAGE>

10.STANDARDIZED MEASURE OF CHANGES IN FUTURE NET REVENUES (UNAUDITED)

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows at 
December 31, 1996 relating to proved oil and gas reserves is set 
forth below.  The assumptions used to compute the standardized measure 
are those prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and 
as such, do not necessarily reflect the Partnership's expectations of 
actual revenues to be derived from those reserves nor their present 
worth.  The limitations inherent in the reserve quantity estimation 
process are equally applicable to the standardized measure computations 
since these estimates are the basis for the valuation process.


                                               YEAR ENDED

Future net cash flows were computed using year-end prices and costs 
that relate to existing proved oil and gas reserves at year-end.  The 
following are the principal sources of change in the standardized 
measure of discounted future net cash flows:

              BMC DEVELOPMENT NO 1 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                   (a Texas Limited Partnership)

                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(The period subsequent to December 31, 1996 is unaudited.)

1.  ORGANIZATION

BMC Development No. 1 Limited Partnership (the Partnership), 
a Texas limited partnership, was formed on April 4, 1996 and 
is engaged primarily in the exploration, development and operation 
of oil and gas properties.  The general partner is Benson-McCown & 
Company (Benson-McCown), a Texas corporation, which in such capacity 
was responsible for, among other things, the management of the 
affairs of the Partnership.  EnCap Equity 1994 Limited Partnership 
(EnCap), a Texas limited partnership, and Energy Capital Investment
Company PLC (ECIC), an English investment company, are limited partners.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the
accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles.  Preparation of financial statements in conformity 
with generally accepted accounting principles and estimation of 
oil and gas reserves require management to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial 
statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ 
from those estimates.

Oil and Gas Properties
The Partnership follows the successful efforts method of 
accounting for oil and gas acquisitions, exploration and 
development costs.  Under this method, costs of successful 
exploratory wells, development wells, lease and well-head 
equipment and all costs incurred in acquiring mineral leasehold 
interests are capitalized.  Exploratory dry hole costs and other 
exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, 
delay rentals and production costs are expensed as incurred.  
Unproved properties are assessed periodically on a 
property-by-property basis and any impairment in value is 
currently charged to expense.

Capitalized costs relating to producing properties are depreciated 
and depleted on the unit-of-production method.  Proved developed 
reserves are used in computing unit rates for drilling and 
development costs, and total proved reserves are used for depletion 
of leasehold costs.  Capitalized costs are evaluated for impairment 
based on an analysis of future net cash flows in accordance with 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting 
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to Be Disposed Of".

Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; major renewals 
and improvements are capitalized.  Gains and losses arising from 
sales of properties are included in income.

Organization Costs
The costs of organizing the Partnership are capitalized and 
amortized over a 60-month period.

Placement Fees
Placement fees are charged directly against partners' capital 
contributions when paid.  During the period from inception 
(April 4, 1996) to December 31, 1996, placement fees of $12,500 
and $12,500 were charged to the capital accounts of ECIC and EnCap,
respectively.

<PAGE>

Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of the Partnership's financial 
instruments, which includes cash, trade accounts receivable 
and accrued liabilities, approximates fair value because of 
the short-term nature of these instruments.

Income Taxes
No provision for federal income taxes is included in the accompanying 
financial statements.  Since the Partnership is not subject to taxation,
the tax effects of its activities accrue to the individual partners.  
The Partnership's tax returns are subject to examination by the federal 
and state taxing authorities.  If such examinations result in 
adjustments, the tax liability of the partners, if any, would 
accordingly be adjusted.

Unaudited Information
The balance sheet as of September 30, 1997 and the statements 
of operations for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 
and 1996 were taken from the Company's books and records without 
audit.  However, in the opinion of management, such information 
includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) 
which are necessary to properly reflect the financial position of the 
Company as of September 30, 1997 and the results of operations for the 
nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.

3.  OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

Effective February 1996, Benson-McCown assigned to the partnership 
three wells in the Ashby and Dunlop leases in Lubbock, Texas, and 
eight wells in Grant County, Oklahoma.  At inception (April 4, 1996), 
the Partnership recorded these properties at their estimated fair 
market value of approximately $1,035,295, adjusted for the operations 
between the effective date of February 1, 1996 and the closing date 
of April 4, 1996.  The results of operations of the properties 
assigned are included in the Partnership's results of operations 
effective April 4, 1996.

4.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Benson-McCown, as operator of the Partnership's oil and gas 
properties, receives revenues and pays costs and expenses associated 
with the properties and then allocates such activity as appropriate 
to the respective working interest and royalty owners.  During the 
period from inception (April 4, 1996) to December 31, 1996, the 
Partnership received oil and gas revenues from Benson-McCown of 
$316,734.  At September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, accounts 
receivable of $65,097 and $84,370, respectively were due from 
Benson-McCown.  During the period from inception (April 4,1 1996) 
to December 31, 1996, the general partner was reimbursed $44,356 for 
operating expenses and capitalized costs incurred on behalf of the 
Partnership.  Accounts payable due to Benson-McCown as of September 
30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 were $18,435 and $56,136, respectively.

During the period from inception (April 4, 1996) to December 31, 
1996, the Partnership paid to a third party on behalf of the general 
partner $675,000 of indebtedness associated with the contributed 
properties.

5.  ALLOCATION TO PARTNERS

The Partnership agreement provides, among other things, that 
revenues and expenses, excluding depletion, depreciation and 
amortization expense, which is allocated to the partners in 
proportion to each partner's relative capital contributions, 
generally are allocated 15% to the general partner and 85% to 
the limited partners until such time the limited partners receive 
a 20% internal rate of return on their investment.  After the 
limited partners receive a 20% internal rate of return but prior 
to a 25% internal rate of return, the revenues and expenses 
generally are allocated 50% to the general partner and 50% to the 
limited partners.  After the limited partners receive a 25% internal 
rate of return, the revenues and expenses are allocated 75% to the 
general partner and 25% to the limited partners.

The allocation among the limited partners is 50% to EnCap and 50% 
to ECIC.


6.  MAJOR CUSTOMERS

Oil and gas sales to three customers constitute a significant 
percentage of the Partnership's revenues.  There are adequate 
buyers or purchasers of the Partnership's production such that 
management believes the loss of one or more of these customers 
would not have a material adverse effect on the results of 
operations of the Partnership.

7.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the course of its business affairs and operations, the 
Partnership is subject to possible loss contingencies arising 
from federal, state and local environmental, health and safety 
laws and regulations and third-party litigation.  There are no 
matters which, in the opinion of management, will have a material 
adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations 
of the Partnership.

8.  FINANCIAL DATA FOR OIL AND GAS PRODUCING ACTIVITIES (UNAUDITED)

The following table sets forth certain information with 
respect to the oil and gas producing activities of the Company:

9.  OIL AND GAS RESERVE DATA (UNAUDITED)

The following table, based on information prepared by 
independent petroleum engineers, summarizes changes in the 
estimates of the Partnership's net interest in total proved 
reserves of crude oil and condensate and natural gas, all of 
which are domestic reserves:


                                            Oil          Gas
                                           (BBLS)       (MCF) 
                                          --------   ---------

Balance April 4, 1996                        -            -       
Purchase of minerals in place             553,000    1,289,000  
Production                                (10,000)     (75,000) 
                                          --------   ----------
Balance, December 31, 1996                543,000    1,214,000  

At December 31, 1996, 157,000 barrels of oil and 715,000 mcf 
of gas were classified as proved developed.

Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of 
crude oil, condensate and natural gas which geological and 
engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be 
recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing 
economic and operating conditions.  Proved developed oil and gas 
reserves are reserves that can be expected to be recovered through 
existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.  The 
above estimated net interests in  proved reserves are based upon 
subjective engineering judgments and may be affected by the 
limitations inherent in such estimation.  The process of estimating 
reserves is subject to continual revision as additional information 
becomes available as a result of drilling, testing, reservoir studies 
and production history.  There can be no assurance that such 
estimates will not be materially revised in subsequent periods.

10. STANDARDIZED MEASURE OF CHANGES IN FUTURE NET REVENUES 
(UNAUDITED)

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows 
at December 31, 1996 relating to proved oil and gas reserves is 
set forth below.  The assumptions used to compute the standardized 
measure are those prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards 
Board and as such, do not necessarily reflect the Partnership's 
expectations of actual revenues to be derived from those reserves 
nor their present worth.  The limitations inherent in the reserve 
quantity estimation process are equally applicable to the standardized 
measure computations since these estimates are the basis for the 
valuation process.

Future Petroleum Corporation
Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements

The following unaudited pro forma combined financial statements are 
derived from the financial statements of Future Petroleum Corporation 
(the Company) and Future Acquisition 1995, Ltd. Partnership, BMC 
Development Partnership, and the Gecko Booty #1 Partnership.  In 
November 1997, the Company acquired the partnership interests of the 
first two partnerships and substantially all the assets of the third for a 
total combined purchase price of $6.6 million in notes and 1,575,000 
shares of the company's common stock. The Unaudited Pro Forma Income 
Statement for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended
December 31, 1996 have been prepared assuming the acquisition had been
consummated as of the beginning of the respective periods.  
The Unaudited Pro Forma Balance Sheet as of September 30, 1997 
has been prepared as if the acquisition had been consummated on 
September 30, 1997.  

Oil and gas producing operations of the three partnerships have
been accounted for on the successful efforts method of accounting
in their historical financial statements, while the Company uses
the full cost method.  Therefore, the pro forma adjustments 
include certain adjustments necessary to place the combined 
entity on the full cost method in addition to adjustments 
necessary to reflect the acquisitions as if they had occurred
on the dates indicated.

The unaudited combined pro forma financial statements should 
be read in conjunction with the notes thereto and with the 
financial statements of the Company as included in its Forms 
10-QSB and 10-KSB and the financial statements of the 
partnerships included herein.  

The unaudited combined pro forma financial statements are 
not indicative of the financial position or results of 
operations of the Company which would actually have occurred 
if the acquisition of the partnerships had occurred at the 
dates presented or which may be obtained in the future.  
In addition, future results may vary significantly from the 
results reflected in such statements due to normal oil and 
gas production declines, changes in prices paid for oil and 
gas, future acquisitions, drilling activity and other factors.
