                         FINA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                MARCH 31, 1995
                                 (UNAUDITED)


(1)     The information furnished reflects all adjustments which are, in the
        opinion of management, necessary to a fair presentation of the results
        of the interim periods presented.

(2)     Earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of
        oustanding shares.  Shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options
        are excluded from the computation since their effect is insignificant.
        The Company has declared a two-for-one stock split with record date of
        May 2, 1995, at close of business.  The par value will be 50 cents per
        share of both Class A and Class B stock.  Share and per share amounts
        in the accompanying financial statements have been adjusted
        retroactively to reflect the stock split.  The weighted average number
        of outstanding shares was 31,189,604 and 31,187,004 for the three
        months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

(3)     The Company is contingently liable under pending lawsuits and other
        claims, some of which involve sustantial sums.  Considering certain
        liabilities which have been set up for the lawsuits and claims, and the
        difficulty in determining the ultimate liability in some of these
        matters, internal counsel is of the opinion that the amounts, if any,
        which ultimately might be due in connection with such lawsuits and
        claims would not have a material adverse effect upon the Company's
        consolidated financial condition.

(4)     The notes to the consolidated financial statements on pages 20 through
        32 of the Company's 1994 Form 10-K are an integral part of these
        consolidated financial statements.

                       PART I - Item 2

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

     Net earnings were $33,490,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1995
compared to $25,017,000 for the first quarter of 1994. Sales and other
operating revenues were $863,188,000 compared to $777,450,000 for first quarter
1994. Earnings per share were $1.07 compared to $0.80 per share for the first
quarter of last year.

     Earnings in the first quarter 1995 were largely attributable to Chemicals
which capitalized on world scale, low-cost plants and large market shares in
styrene, polystyrene and polypropylene. Upstream results declined from the same
period last year because of lower natural gas prices and lower crude and
natural gas production volumes. In the Downstream, refining margins declined
from the same period last year.

     During the first quarter, a $400 million revolving bank credit facility
with Nationsbank of Texas N.A., as lead agent, was implemented to replace a $400
million facility which expired in March 1995. Also, the Board of Directors made
the decision to increase the cash dividend by 20% beginning in June 1995.

     On May 2, 1995, following stockholder approval, a charter amendment was
filed in the State of Delaware which changed the Class A and Class B Common 
Stock of the Company from $1.00 par value per share to fifty cents, 
effectively splitting the stock 2-for-1.

     Upstream results in the first quarter were down compared with the
corresponding period last year primarily due to lower natural gas prices and
crude and natural gas production volumes and higher dry hole and seismic
expenses. The Company has nearly completed its program to divest properties not
fitting the long-term strategic plan. Focus was on increased exploration and
drilling.

     Downstream reported decreased earnings in the quarter compared to first
quarter 1994. Throughout the first quarter of 1995, lower refining margins
prevailed. Compared to first quarter 1994, Gulf Coast fuels refining margins
were down about $2.00/BBL and West Texas industry margins were down about
$1.00/BBL. Total throughput at both refineries was 214MBD.

     Chemicals earnings more than doubled compared to first quarter 1994.
Chemical products enjoyed strong demands and margin increases compared to the
same period last year. After planned expansions, the LaPorte, Texas
polypropylene plant and the Carville, Louisiana polystyrene plant are expected
to be the largest in the world.

     The Company's annual meeting of shareholders was held April 12, 1995. All
members of the Board of Directors were reelected.

     At its regularly scheduled meeting on April 20, 1995, the Board of
Directors elected Patricia M. Wallington to the Board and named her to the
Audit Committee of the Board. Also, the Board named three new Vice Presidents,
four senior Vice Presidents (who had formerly been Vice Presidents) and
appointed a new Controller.

     The Company's regular quarterly dividend of $.50 per share (adjusted to
reflect the stock split) was paid March 16, 1995 to shareholders of record on
March 6, 1995. The next declared dividend of $.60 per share will be paid on
June 15, 1995 to shareholders of record on June 2, 1995.
