     The Statement on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D"), dated September 16, 
1993, filed by B. Carl Price, relating to the beneficial ownership of common 
stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Future Petroleum 
Corporation, a Utah corporation (the "Issuer" or "Future"), formerly known as 
Intermountain Exploration Company, and amended and supplemented by Amendment No.
1 to the Schedule 13D, dated August 14, 1998, filed by B. Carl Price is hereby 
amended and supplemented as set forth below.  Other than as set forth below, the
Schedule 13D, as amended, is unchanged.  The address of the principal executive 
offices of the Issuer is 700 Louisiana, Suite 3700, Houston, Texas 77002.

Item 2.     Identity and Background.

     Except as otherwise provided below, Item 2 of the Schedule 13D remains 
unchanged.

     The following person ("Reporting Person") is filing this Schedule 13D:

     The principal business address and office of B. Carl Price 
("Reporting Person") is located at 700 Louisiana, Suite 3700, Houston, 
Texas 77002.  Mr. Price's principal occupation is Vice President-
Corporate Development and Director of the Issuer.

     Asset Purchase

Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement and Plan of 
Reorganization ("Agreement"), Future acquired, as of December 15, 1998, 
substantially all of the assets and liabilities, including the going 
concern value of Bargo Energy Resources, Ltd. ("Bargo L.P.") for $2 
million and 100,000 shares of a new class of convertible preferred stock 
of Future ("Preferred Stock").  Each share of Preferred Stock is 
convertible at any time into 260 shares of common stock and votes as a 
class with the common stock on all matters.  Each share of Preferred 
Stock has 260 votes.  The Preferred Stock will participate with the 
common stock on liquidating distributions and dividends, with each share 
of Preferred Stock being entitled to 260 times the amount paid to common 
shareholders.  Bargo L.P. immediately distributed the shares of 
Preferred Stock to its partners, Bargo Operating Company, Inc. ("Bargo 
Operating"), Tim J. Goff, James E. Sowell and Thomas D. Barrow.  Also 
pursuant to the Agreement, Future issued 8,333,333 shares of its Common 
Stock to Bargo Energy Company and TJG Investments, Inc. ("TJG") in 
exchange for the cancellation of outstanding debt aggregating $4 
million.  As of the close of the transaction, Bargo L.P., Bargo Energy 
Company, Bargo Operating, TJG, Mr. Goff, Mr. Barrow and Mr. Sowell 
(Bargo L.P., Bargo Energy Company, Bargo Operating, TJG, Mr. Goff, Mr. 
Barrow and Mr. Sowell are referred to as the "Bargo Group"), 
beneficially owned approximately 80.8% of the outstanding Common Stock, 
including the Preferred Stock on an as converted basis, of Future.

     Amended and Restated Shareholders' Agreement

     In connection with the Asset Purchase, Future, the Bargo Group, 
Mr. B. Carl Price, Mr. Don Wm. Reynolds (Mr. Price and Mr. Reynolds are 
referred to as the "Price Group") and certain other shareholders entered 
into an Amended and Restated Shareholders' Agreement ("Shareholders' 
Agreement") whereby Bargo Energy Company, Bargo Operating, TJG, Mr. 
Goff, Mr. Barrow and Mr. Sowell were added as parties to the 
Shareholders' Agreement and the Bargo Group's board representation was 
increased from two director nominees to four director nominees and the 
Price Group's board representation was decreased from three director 
nominees to one director nominee.  No other material provisions of the 
Shareholders' Agreement were changed.

(1)     In accordance with SEC regulations under Section 13(d) of the 
        Act, the percent shown in this column for each stockholder 
        represents the number of shares of Common Stock owned by the 
        stockholder plus the derivative securities (on an as converted 
        basis) owned by such stockholder divided by the number of shares 
        outstanding plus the number of derivative securities (on an as 
        converted basis) owned by such stockholder.

(2)     Represents warrants to purchase Common Stock.

(3)     Represents warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock 
        and 260,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 
        Preferred Stock.

        Preferred Stock.

(5)     Includes 587,720 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired 
        pursuant to employee stock options which may be exercised 
        immediately.  Also includes 45,788 shares of Common Stock, the 
        maximum number of shares which Mr. Price has the right to acquire 
        during the 60 days following December 15, 1998 under an employment 
        agreement with Future.  Under this agreement, Mr. Price may elect 
        to receive all or a portion of his salary in shares of Common 
        Stock at a price per share of $0.42 per share until December 31, 
        1998.  From January 1, 1998 and until the employment agreement 
        terminates, the purchase price per share is the average midpoint 
        between the bid and asked price of the Common Stock on the OTC 
        Bulletin Board for the last five days of the calendar year prior 
        to the years the compensation is earned.  The 45,788 shares 
        included in the foregoing table represents the maximum number of 
        shares which Mr. Price could acquire during the 60 day period 
        following December 15, 1998 if he converted all of his salary with 
        shares of Common Stock.

      There were no transactions, other than pursuant to the Agreement, 
in the Common Stock effected by the Reporting Person, during the past 
sixty days.  To the best of the Reporting Person's knowledge, there were 
no transactions in the Common Stock effected during the past sixty days

subject to the voting and transfer provisions of the Shareholders' 
Agreement.

            Relationships with Respect to the Securities of the Issuer.

herewith, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or 
relationships (legal or otherwise) between any of the individuals or 
entities described in Item 2 or between such persons and any other
