AMOCO COMPANY
PART I
Items 1. and 2. Business and Properties
Amoco Company, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), the principal
wholly owned subsidiary of Amoco Corporation, an Indiana corporation
("Amoco"), functions as the holding company for all of Amoco's petroleum
and chemical operations, except Canadian petroleum operations. Amoco has
guaranteed all presently outstanding public debt obligations of Amoco
Company. The principal wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company and the
businesses in which they are engaged are summarized below:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Amoco Production Company . . . Exploration, development and production
of crude oil and natural gas.
Amoco Oil Company . . . . . . Refining, marketing and transporting of
petroleum and related products.
Amoco Chemical Company . . . . Manufacture and sale of chemical
products.
</TABLE>

for Canadian petroleum operations and selected other activities, the
information contained in Items 1. and 2. "Business and Properties" of
Amoco Corporation's 1993 Annual Report on Form 10-K is incorporated
herein by reference. Information related to Canadian petroleum
operations is identified separately therein and is not incorporated

PART II

Matters
All of the common stock of the registrant is owned by its parent
company; therefore, there is no market for such stock.
Item 6. Selected Financial Data
Not required.
Item 7. Management's Narrative Analysis of Results of Operations
Results of Operations
1993 Compared With 1992
The Company earned $1,803 million in 1993 compared with $524 million
in 1992. Excluding the cumulative effects of adoption in 1992 of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 106, "Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions," and SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes," 1992 earnings were $1,226 million.
Earnings in 1993 were adversely affected by charges of $170 million
associated with the writedown of Congo exploration and production
operations to current recoverable value and additional deferred taxes of
$53 million due to the effect of a tax rate change resulting from
enactment of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993. Partly
offsetting were prior-year tax benefits of $107 million and gains from
drawdown of inventories valued under the last-in, first-out ("LIFO")
method of approximately $50 million. Included in 1992 results were
charges of $546 million as part of a strategic reassessment of business
operations. Favorably impacting 1992 earnings were $90 million related
to natural gas contract settlements in Sharjah and $62 million primarily
associated with revised estimates of tax obligations.
Adjusting both years for special items and accounting changes, 1993
earnings were $1,869 million compared with 1992 earnings of $1,620
million. The increase resulted from higher refined product margins in
refining, marketing and transportation operations and improved chemical
results. Also contributing to the improvement were higher U.S. natural
gas prices and volumes and lower worldwide exploration and operating
expenses. Partly offsetting were lower crude oil prices and volumes.
Sales and other operating revenues totaled $22.9 billion for 1993
compared with $22.8 billion for 1992. Crude oil revenues increased 6
percent reflecting higher U.S. sales volumes, partly offset by lower
prices worldwide. Natural gas revenues were higher as a result of
increased U.S. prices and volumes. Included in 1992 were revenues
associated with natural gas contract settlements. Refined product
revenues declined 2 percent primarily due to lower prices. Other income
was higher in 1993 compared with last year as a result of gains on asset
dispositions.
3
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Purchases of crude oil, petroleum products and merchandise of $11.8
billion for 1993 were 3 percent above the 1992 level of $11.4 billion,
resulting from higher crude oil purchase volumes in the United States.
Partly offsetting were lower crude oil prices. Exploration expenses for
1993 were 18 percent below 1992, due to lower dry hole costs worldwide.
Selling and administrative expenses also declined 18 percent compared
with prior year, mainly due to the absence of 1992 restructuring charges.
Depreciation, depletion, amortization, and retirements and abandonments
for 1993 were 8 percent below 1992 reflecting property dispositions.
Interest expense increased in 1993 over the prior year, primarily
reflecting the absence of benefits associated with revised estimates of
tax obligations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash flows from operating activities generated $3.5 billion in 1993,
compared with $2.8 billion in 1992.
The debt to debt-plus-equity ratio decreased to 16.8 percent in
1993, compared with 18.1 percent in 1992. The Company believes its
strong financial position will permit the financing of business needs and
opportunities in an orderly manner.
Working capital totaled $407 million at December 31, 1993, down from
$695 million at December 31, 1992. The Company's current ratio decreased
to 1.10 to 1 at year-end 1993 from 1.18 to 1 at year-end 1992. As a
matter of policy, Amoco Company practices asset and liability management
techniques that are designed to minimize its investment in non-cash
working capital. This does not impair operational capability or
flexibility since the Company has ready access to both short-term and
long-term debt markets.
Amoco Company's short-term liquidity position is better than the
reported figures indicate since the inventory component of working
capital is valued in part under the LIFO method, whereas other elements
of working capital are reported at amounts more indicative of their
current values. If inventories were valued at current replacement
costs, the level of working capital would rise and an increase in the
current ratio would result.
Amoco Corporation and Amoco Company guarantee the notes and
debentures of Amoco Canada Petroleum Company Ltd., except for the 7 3/8%
Subordinated Exchangeable Debentures due 2013.

Financial Statements
Basis of Financial Statement Preparation
The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Amoco and its presently
outstanding public debt securities are guaranteed by Amoco. Pursuant to
Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 53,
summarized financial data of the Company appear in a note to Amoco's 1993
audited consolidated financial statements. Such financial statements,
together with the Report of Independent Accountants thereon of Amoco's
1993 Annual Report on Form 10-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
The unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company
contained herein do not include all information and footnotes necessary
for a complete presentation of results of operations and financial
position in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and
should be read in conjunction with Amoco's audited consolidated financial
statements.

<PAGE>
Effective January 1, 1992, the Company adopted SFAS No. 106,
"Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions,"
and SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." The cumulative effect of
adoption relating to years prior to 1992, was a non-cash charge of $702
million. This represents after-tax charges of $749 million for the
adoption of SFAS No. 106 partially offset by an after-tax credit of $47
million for the adoption of SFAS No. 109. In addition, the current-year
effect on net income of adopting these standards was a charge of $51
million related to the adoption of SFAS No. 106 and a benefit of $62
million associated with the adoption of SFAS No. 109. The Company had
adopted SFAS No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes," effective January 1,
1991. The cumulative effect of that accounting change was to decrease
deferred tax liabilities and increase 1991 net income by $1,143 million.
