ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

     This  Amendment No. 4 is being filed to report  changes in the  information
contained in the original Schedule 13D and Amendments thereto resulting from the
following transactions:

     (i) As previously  reported,  effective June 11, 1993, the Issuer acquired,
through a subsidiary, Grand Junction Well Services, Inc., from Willard H. Pease,
Jr. In the transaction, the Issuer issued 46, 667 shares of its common stock and
a 6% secured convertible  promissory note in the principal amount of $175,000 to
Mr. Pease for a total value of $350,000,  the estimated fair market value of the
assets and business of Grand Junction Well Services, Inc. The promissory note is
convertible  at the election of Mr. Pease into 35,000  shares of common stock of
the Issuer at $5.00 per share.  The note is  payable in three  annual  principal
installments  of  $45,000 on  October  1,  1994,  $65,000 on April 1, 1995,  and
$65,000 on April 1, 1996.

     Also as  previously  reported,  on December 31,  1994,  the October 1, 1994
$45,000  payment was made to Mr.  Pease.  Mr. Pease elected to defer the payment
which was due April 1, 1995.  Accordingly,  on December 31, 1994,  the amount of
shares of common  stock  underlying  the  promissory  note was  reduced by 9,000
shares to 26,000 shares.

     On October 1, 1995, the  promissory  note was amended so that the remaining
two installment  payments of $65,000 each have been extended to October 1, 1997,
and October 1, 1998, respectively.

     (ii) On March 9,  1996,  the Board of  Directors  of the  Issuer  agreed to
change an existing $60,000  promissory note held by Mr. Pease into a convertible
promissory note. The promissory note is convertible into 60,000 shares of common
stock.

     (iii) On March 9, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Issuer granted to Mr.
Pease in exchange  for services a warrant to purchase  101,500  shares of common
stock.  The warrant is immediately exercisable.

     (iv) On March 9, 1996,  the Board of Directors of the Issuer  issued to Mr.
Pease  5,000  shares of  common  stock in lieu of cash for  services.  The 5,000
shares were valued at $1.00 per share.

     (v) On March 9, 1996,  the Board of Directors of the Issuer  granted to Mr.
Pease an option to purchase  8,900 shares of common  stock.  The option  becomes
exercisable on September 9, 1996. Since this stock option is exercisable  within
60 days of the date of this Amendment No. 4, the securities  reported to be held
by Mr. Pease herein include 8,900 shares underlying the stock option.

 ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

     The  transactions  involving the  acquisition  or disposition of securities
reported in this Amendment No. 4 are described above in Item 3. The transactions
described above do not involved any plans or proposals which might be considered
to be an extraordinary corporate transaction or which would result in a material
change in the business of the Issuer or its corporate structure.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER. 

     Mr. Pease owns directly  397,173  shares (5.3% of the Issuer's  outstanding
shares), which includes 148,500 shares underlying presently exercisable options,
101,500 shares  underlying  presently  exercisable  warrants,  and 86,000 shares
underlying two convertible  promissory  notes.  Mr. Pease is deemed to have sole
voting and dispositive power of 364,963 shares owned by affiliates of Mr. Pease.
All of the shares  acquired by Mr. Pease as described  above were  purchased and
paid for in the manner described in Item 3 above.

     ITEM 6.  CONTRACTS,  ARRANGEMENTS,  UNDERSTANDINGS  OR  RELATIONSHIPS  WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     None

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.

     None
