                  Management's Discussion and Analysis of
               Financial Condition and Results of Operations


     The following discussion should be read in conjunction with
the business section, consolidated financial statements, notes, and
management's discussion contained in the Company's 1994 annual
report on Form 10-K, and condensed consolidated financial
statements and notes contained in this report.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Cash flow from operations for the three months ended March 31,
1995 amounted to $22.9 million as compared to $26.7 million for the
same period in 1994.  Capital expenditures and distributions to the
partners for the first quarter of 1995 were $5.2 million and $16.4
million, respectively.  For the three months ended March 31, 1994,
capital expenditures and partners' contributions to the Company
were $4.6 million and $14.3 million, respectively.

     The Company's share of the 1995 Indonesian Joint Venture
expenditures is expected to be approximately $49 million of which
$29 million is anticipated for development expenditures.  During
the first three months of 1995, approximately $15 million was
called by the Joint Venture as compared to $14 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1994.

     The Company's ability to generate cash is primarily dependent
on the prices it receives for the sale of LNG, and to a lesser
extent, the sale of crude oil and LPG.  LNG and LPG are primarily
sold under long term contracts whose prices are indexed by a basket
of world crudes.  In the event cash generated from operations is
not sufficient to meet capital investment and other requirements,
any shortfall will be funded through additional cash contributions
by the partners.  The Company cannot predict with any degree of
certainty the prices it will receive in future periods for its
crude oil and LNG.  The Company's financial condition, operating
results and liquidity will be materially affected by any
significant fluctuations in its sales prices and as such, any
change in world crude prices.

Results of Operations

                       Quarter Ended March 31, 1995
                 Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1994

     For the first quarter of 1995, revenues were $60.5 million,
compared to $55.2 million in 1994.  The increase in revenues was
primarily attributable to a 14 percent increase in the average
price per million BTUs received for LNG and a 12 percent increase
in the realized price per barrel of crude oil.  The average price
received per million BTUs of LNG for the first quarter of 1995
increased to $2.73 per million BTUs as compared to $2.40 for the

                 Management's Discussion and Analysis of
        Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Continued
                                    
                                    
same period in 1994.  The average realized crude oil price
increased $1.86 to $17.50 per barrel in the first quarter of 1995
from $15.64 per barrel in the first quarter of 1994.  The prices
received by the Company for its products reflected the increase in
world wide crude oil prices which occurred during the past twelve
months.  

     Gross LNG Sales increased by five cargoes to 74 cargoes in the
first quarter of 1995 as compared to the same quarter in 1994;
however, the Joint Venture's share of the LNG sold decreased to 114
trillion BTUs (38.8 net equivalent cargoes) from 120 trillion BTUs
(40.8 net equivalent cargoes) as more of the LNG sold in the first
quarter of 1995 was under those contracts in which the Joint
Venture has a lower net revenue sharing interest.  Furthermore, the
Joint Venture expects to deliver fewer net equivalent cargoes
during 1995 than were delivered in 1994.  Crude oil volumes net to
the Company increased 10 percent to 469 thousand barrels for the
quarter ended March 31, 1995.  The final settlement with Pertamina,
the Indonesian national oil company, relating to 1994 production
was recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 1995.  The final
settlement was favorable, although $1.4 million lower than the
1993 adjustment recorded in the first quarter of 1994.

     Depletion, depreciation and amortization decreased $2.7
million due to the lower LNG production volumes discussed above. 
Additionally, lower depletion rates resulted from a higher level of
reserves due to reserve additions which were booked in the fourth
quarter of 1994.
     
     Indonesian income tax expense in the first quarter of 1995
increased $2.9 million to $28.2 million from $25.3 million in the
first quarter of 1994.  The increase in current income tax expense
in the first quarter of 1995 was primarily due to higher first
quarter revenues and a lower favorable tax final settlement.  The
effective tax rates for the 1995 and 1994 first quarters were 67
percent and 72 percent, respectively.  These rates are the
aggregate of Indonesian source income taxed at a 56 percent rate,
