           OCEANEERING INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              (unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
   
   These Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and have been
   prepared pursuant to instructions for the Quarterly Report on Form
   10-Q required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
   Commission and do not include all information and footnotes
   normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
   with generally accepted accounting principles.  Management has
   reflected all adjustments which it believes are necessary to
   present fairly the Company's financial position at June 30, 1997
   and its results of operations and cash flows for the periods
   presented.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. 
   The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
   consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
   Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended
   March 31, 1997.  The results for interim periods are not
   necessarily indicative of annual results.

2. Cash and Cash Equivalents

   Cash and cash equivalents includes demand deposits and highly
   liquid investments with original maturities of three months or
   fewer from the date of the investment.  Approximately $1.5 million
   of the Company's cash at June 30, 1997 and March 31, 1997 was
   restricted and is deposited in interest bearing accounts as
   security in connection with legal proceedings.

3. Shareholders' Equity

   Shareholders' Equity consisted of the following:

                                                June 30,      March 31,

                                               =======================

4. Income Taxes

Cash taxes paid were $1.9 million and $800,000 for the first quarters
of 1998 and 1997, respectively.

5.   Earnings Per Share

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued SFAS 128,
"Earnings Per Share", which establishes standards for computing and
presenting earnings per share.  The Company will adopt SFAS in the
third quarter of 1998, as required, and believes that diluted earnings
per share, as defined in SFAS 128, will approximate EPS as shown in
these financial statements.


Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.

All statements in this Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical
facts, including, without limitation, statements regarding the
Company's business strategy, plans for future operations, and industry
conditions, are forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe
harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995.  The Company utilizes a variety of internal and external data
and management judgement in order to develop such forward-looking
information.   Although the Company believes that the expectations
reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, because
of the inherent limitations in the forecasting process, as well as the
relatively volatile nature of the industry in which the Company
operates, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove
to have been correct.  Accordingly, evaluation of future prospects of
the Company must be made with caution when relying on forward-looking
information.

Material Changes in Financial Condition

The Company considers its liquidity and capital resources adequate to
support continuing operations and capital commitments.  At June 30,
1997, the Company had working capital of $39 million, including $21
million of unrestricted cash.  Receivables were reduced during the
first quarter of 1998 as proceeds from the sale of the Company's North
Sea diving assets were received.  Additionally, the Company had all of
its $80 million credit facility available and $37 million was unused
under uncommitted lines of credit.

In April 1997, the Company approved a plan to purchase up to a maximum
of 3,000,000 shares of its Common Stock.  At the end of the first
quarter of 1998, a total of 839,000 shares had been purchased under
this plan.  The Company expects to continue to fund such purchases
from existing resources and operating cash flow.

Capital expenditures were $18 million during the first three months of
1998, as compared to $22 million during the corresponding period of
the prior fiscal year.  Capital expenditures in 1998 consisted of
additions to the Company's fleet of remotely operated vehicles
("ROV"), additional support vessels and two out-of-service mobile
offshore platforms for potential conversion to production systems or
alternative service.  Prior fiscal year expenditures included
construction costs of $15 million for the Floating Production, Storage
and Offloading system ("FPSO") ZAFIRO PRODUCER and ROV fleet
expansion.

There were no material commitments for capital expenditures at June
30, 1997.

Results of Operations

Consolidated revenue and margin information is as follows:

                                             Three Months Ended
                                                  June 30,
                                             1997           1996
                                               (in thousands)

     Revenues                              $95,163        $80,535
     Gross Margin                           18,933         14,850
     Gross margin %                            20%            18%
     Operating Margin %                        10%             7%
                                             
The quarters ending June 30 and September 30 have generally been the
Company's peak in both revenues and net income for its Oilfield Marine
business.  However, the Company's exit from the diving sector in the
North Sea in early 1998 and the substantial number of multi-year ROV
contracts which were entered into during 1997 should reduce the
seasonality of the Company's Oilfield Marine Services operations. 
Revenues and net income in the Offshore Field Development and Advanced
Technologies businesses are generally not seasonal.

Oilfield Marine Services

Revenue and gross margin information is as follows:

                                             Three Months Ended
                                                  June 30,
                                             1997           1996
                                    (in thousands, except percentages)
                    
   Revenues                                $49,561        $41,639
   Gross margins                            10,362          7,344
   Gross margin %                              21%            18%


During the three-month period ended June 30, 1997, revenues for the
Oilfield Marine Services segment increased compared to the
corresponding period of the prior year primarily as a result of
additional ROVs placed in service.  Gross margins improved in both ROV
and diving services.

Offshore Field Development

Revenue and gross margin information is as follows:

                                             Three Months Ended  
                                                  June 30,
                                             1997           1996
                                   (in thousands, except percentages)

   Revenues                                $24,628        $16,564
   Gross margins                             4,300          3,346
   Gross margin %                              17%            20%
     
Revenues and gross margins for offshore production systems were higher
in the first quarter of 1998 compared to the corresponding period of
the prior year as a result of increased product sales and project
management work.  During the first quarter of 1998, the previously
announced special drydocking on the Company's FPSO OCEAN PRODUCER
commenced.  As the FPSO continues to earn a base dayrate for a period
of time, the repair work is not expected to have a material impact on
revenue or income from operations in 1998.  The FPSO is expected to be
back in service offshore West Africa by the end of the second quarter
of 1998 under a contract which expires in January 2000.

Advanced Technologies

Revenue and gross margin information is as follows:

                                             Three Months Ended
                                                  June 30,
                                             1997           1996 
                                   (in thousands, except percentages)

   Revenues                                $20,974        $22,332   
   Gross margins                             4,271          4,160
   Gross margin %                              20%            19%
     
Revenues for the first quarter of 1998 compared to the corresponding
period of the prior year reflect lower activity on civil works
projects and subsea cable burial partially offset by increased
activity in search and recovery projects for the U.S. Navy.

Other

Interest income for the three-month period ended June 30, 1997
declined compared to the corresponding period of the prior year
primarily as a result of interest earned by financing the conversion
costs of a mobile offshore production unit for an oilfield customer in
the prior year.  The total amount of principal and interest
outstanding under this financing arrangement was paid in full by the
customer in June 1996.

Interest expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 1997
declined compared to the corresponding period of the prior year as the
Company repaid all outstanding debt in December 1996.  Interest
expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 1996 was net of
capitalized interest of $600,000 relating to the FPSO ZAFIRO PRODUCER
conversion project.
  
The provisions for income taxes were related to U.S. income taxes
which were provided at estimated annual effective rates using
assumptions as to earnings and other factors which would affect the
tax calculation for the remainder of the fiscal year, and to the
operations of foreign branches and subsidiaries which were subject to
local income and withholding taxes.
