                         Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Triton Engineering Services Company:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Triton
Engineering Services Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992,
and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and
cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Triton Engineering
Services Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Notes 2 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes to adopt the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes," as of January 1, 1993.

As discussed in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's
Board of Directors have executed a letter of intent to sell all of the
outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to
the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts
and classifications of liabilities that might result from the sale.

     ("Triton" or the "Company") provide specialized technical services to the
     upstream segment of the petroleum industry. The Company drills oil and gas
     wells worldwide, onshore and offshore, for clients on a fixed-fee turnkey
     basis, providing all engineering, equipment, materials, services and
     management required. In addition, it provides project management,
     engineering for drilling and production projects, daywork services,
     operations supervision, consulting and supply services. The Company's
     subsidiaries are:

               Triton USA, Inc.
               Triton International, Inc.
               Triton Tool and Supply, Inc.
               Triton International Limited
               Triton Engineering Services Company, S.A.
               Triton Engineering Services Company Limited
               Triton Turn-Key, Inc.

               1201 Dairy Ashford, Inc.
               Triton/Faja de Oro Joint Venture

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
     and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company's 50% interest in
     Triton/Faja de Oro Joint Venture has also been consolidated in 1993; in
     1992 such investment was accounted for under the equity method (see note
     3). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
     eliminated in consolidation. Investments in unconsolidated affiliates are
     accounted for under the equity method.

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     As described in note 6, the consolidated financial statements for 1993
     reflect the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No.
     109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (Statement 109), effective January 1,
     1993.

     RECOGNITION OF REVENUE FROM SERVICE AND TURNKEY DRILLING CONTRACTS

     The Company performs engineering services under contractual arrangements
     and recognizes revenues as services are rendered or as reimbursable
     expenses are incurred.

     Revenues on turnkey drilling contracts are recorded using the
     completed-contract method for financial reporting purposes. The
     completed-contract method recognizes income only if the contract is
     completed, or substantially completed, unless the contract is estimated to
     result in a loss, whereby provision is made immediately for the entire
     anticipated loss.

                                                                     (Continued)

                      TRITON ENGINEERING SERVICES COMPANY
                               AND SUBSIDIARIES
                                       
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                       
     CASH EQUIVALENTS

     For presentation of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid
     debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months
     or less to be cash equivalents.

     INVENTORY

     Inventory is valued at the lower of cost, determined on a
     weighted-average basis, or market. No valuation allowance was deemed
     necessary at December 31, 1993 or 1992.

     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment, Drilling Equipment and Leasehold 
     Improvements

     Furniture, fixtures and equipment, drilling equipment and leasehold        
     improvements are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated on the
     straight-line method over the estimated useful lives ranging from three to
     seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized straight-line over the
     shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset.
     Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property
     is retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated
     depreciation are removed from the respective accounts with any gain or
     loss on disposal included in income.

     Oil and Gas Properties

     The Company utilizes the full-cost method to account for its investment in
     oil and gas properties. Under this method, all costs of
     acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves
     (including such costs as leasehold acquisition costs, geological
     expenditures, dry hole costs and tangible and intangible development
     costs) are capitalized as incurred. Oil and gas properties are depleted
     and charged to operations using the unit-of-production method based on
     the ratio of current production to proved oil and gas reserves.
     Dispositions of oil and gas properties are recorded as adjustments to
     capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized unless such adjustments
     would alter significantly the relationship between capitalized costs and
     proved reserves of oil and gas. During 1993, the Company sold a
     significant portion of its oil and gas properties, resulting in the
     recognition of a gain of $63,776; the Company had no significant
     dispositions during 1992. To the extent that capitalized costs of oil and
     gas properties, net of accumulated depreciation and depletion, exceed the
     discounted future net revenues of proved oil and gas reserves, such excess
     capitalized costs would be charged to operations. A valuation provision of
     $228,340 was required for the year ended December 31, 1992, and is
     included in operating expenses; no such provision was required in 1993.

     ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

     During 1993, the Company transferred approximately $320,000 and $325,000
     of jar parts classified as assets held for sale at December 31, 1992
     to property and equipment and inventory, respectively, as the Company no
     longer intends to actively market the jar parts for sale, instead, using
     such items in its drilling operations.

                                                                     (Continued)

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statements of Financial
     Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement
     Benefits Other Than Pensions," ("Statement 106") and No. 112, "Employers'
     Accounting for Postemployment Benefits" ("Statement 112"). Statement 106
     focuses principally on accounting for postretirement health care benefits,
     requiring accrual of the expected cost of those benefits during the period
     in which the employee provides service, and for the Company is effective
     for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994. Statement 112 requires
     employers to recognize the obligation to provide postemployment benefits
     unless the amount cannot be reasonably estimated; Statement 112 is
     effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1993. The Company
     does not believe the implementation of Statement 106 or Statement 112,     
     will have a material impact on its financial position.

(3)  JOINT VENTURE OPERATIONS

     During 1992, the Company entered into a 50/50 joint venture agreement (the
     "Joint Venture") with Perforadora Faja de Oro, S.A. de C.V. ("Faja") to
     perform four turnkey drilling contracts ("the Contracts") for Petroleos
     Mexicanos ("Pemex"), the government-owned Mexican oil company.

     In exchange for a 50% share of the profits of the Joint Venture, the
     Company agreed to provide technical support and advice to Faja with
     respect to the preparation of bids, the preparation of drilling programs,
     and engineering and supervisory support during operations.

     Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Faja provided initial funding of
     up to $4,000,000 per well to cover expenses that were paid prior to
     collection from Pemex. The advance from Faja was repaid during January
     1993.

     In 1992, the investment in the Joint Venture was accounted for using the
     equity method.

     At December 31, 1992 the Joint Venture had completed two of the four
     contracts.

     As Triton has significant influence over the activities of the Joint
     Venture and as the advances made by Faja were settled by the Joint Venture
     during January 1993, the Company began accounting for the investment in
     the Joint Venture through consolidation of its operations and financial
     position.

     The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Triton Tool and Supply,
     Inc. (TTS), furnishes the Joint Venture with supplies, services and
     rentals of equipment at prices comparable to those TTS offers its best
     customers. The Joint Venture has no obligation to purchase from TTS.
     Included in the Company's revenues and gross profits at December 31, 1992
     were $3,058,990 and $626,987, respectively, related to sales from TTS to
     the Joint Venture.

                                                                     (Continued)

The Company also obtains supplies, equipment and services from third parties on
behalf of the Joint Venture. The cost to the Company is rebilled in full to the
Joint Venture.  Receivables for reimbursement of purchases made on behalf of
the Joint Venture are included in investments in unconsolidated affiliates at
December 31, 1992.

Profits, losses and net distributions are allocated 50% to the Company and 50%
to Faja.  Distribution of the proceeds of the Pemex contracts are 1) to pay all
amounts owed to third parties, 2) to reimburse advances made by the Company and
Faja to or on behalf of the Joint Venture and 3) to distribute remaining
profits. Seventy-five percent of the remaining profit will be distributed
within 10 days of the determination of the net profit, and the remaining 25%
will be distributed within four months thereafter.

(4)  INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES

     The Company has a 10.44% investment in 1201 Dairy Ashford, Ltd. (the
     Partnership) through its wholly-owned subsidiary, 1201 Dairy Ashford,
     Inc., which serves as the general partner for the Partnership. An officer
     and certain directors of the Company are limited partners in the
     Partnership. Profits are to be allocated 100% to the partners, according
     to their respective percentage interest, until the limited partners are
     reimbursed in full for their initial and supplemental, if any, capital
     contributions. The remaining profits shall be allocated 50% to the limited
     partners and 50% to the general partner until the aggregate balance of all
     limited partner accounts equals $250,000 (the initial limited partners'
     aggregate investment), less any distributions to the limited partners
     after February 26, 1987. Any remaining profits shall be allocated 100% to
     the general partner.  All losses are to be allocated 100% to the general
     partner.

     The Company leases office space from the Partnership. Rental expense
     related to the lease was $404,684 for 1993 and 1992. Minimum annual
     rentals of $404,684 are due under the lease, which expires on January 31,
     2006. In addition, the Company is obliged to pay the operating costs, as
     defined, of the property subject to the lease. Such operating costs were
     $302,481 and $322,889 for 1993 and 1992, respectively.

     The Company holds two noninterest-bearing notes issued by the Partnership.
     One note in the original amount of $1,701,215 is secured by a lien on the
     land and building owned by the Partnership, and the second note in the
     original amount of $1,000,000 is unsecured. A note payable to a third
     party in the original amount of $2,600,000 is also secured by a lien on
     the land and building. The third party note, which matures on February 1,
     2016, is callable by the lenders on February 1, 2001. The Company's lien
     is subordinate to the third party lien.

     The Company's 1993 operations include a loss of $94,336 representing the
     Company's equity in the Partnership's loss. The Company's 1992 operations
     include a loss of $93,131 representing the Company's equity in the
     partnership's loss and a charge of $334,162 to write down the Company's
     investment in the Partnership to its estimated net realizable value, as
     the liabilities of the Partnership exceed the appraised value of the
     Partnership's assets. No additional impairment was recorded during 1993.

     The following details the Company's investment in the Partnership,
     accounted for using the equity method, at December 31, 1993 and 1992:

(5)  DEBT AND CREDIT AGREEMENTS

     On June 2, 1992, the Company obtained a working capital line of credit in
     the amount of $1,500,000 maturing on May 2, 1993. The line of credit was
     extended during 1993 to June 1, 1994. The line of credit is secured by
     assignment of accounts receivable and inventory owned and subsequently
     acquired. The Company was not in compliance with certain covenants at
     December 31, 1993. Borrowings outstanding under the line of credit bear
     interest at the prime rate (as published by the Wall Street Journal) plus
     1/2 of one percentage point (6.5% at December 31, 1993). At December 31,
     1993, $1,500,000 was outstanding under the line of credit.

(6)  INCOME TAXES

     As discussed in Note 2, the Company adopted Statement 109 effective
     January 1, 1993.  Statement 109 requires a change from the deferred method
     to the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under
     the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for
     the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted
     statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the
     financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets
     and liabilities. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred taxes of a
     change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes
     the enactment date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
     enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary
     differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

                                                                     (Continued)

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The cumulative effect on prior years of the adoption of Statement No. 109
increased net earnings by $66,285 and is reported separately in the
consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 1993. Prior
year financial statements were not restated.

The income tax provision consists of the following for the years ended December
31, 1993 and 1992.


                                          1993          1992

                                       ----------     ---------

The primary reasons for the difference in the statutory tax rate and the
effective tax rate are the taxation of foreign earnings at rates in excess of,
and in addition to, the U.S. statutory rate and the limitation of foreign tax
credit utilization. The Company utilized foreign tax credits of $1,044,612 and
$887,113 in 1993 and 1992, respectively.

The tax effects of temporary differences that result in significant portions of
the deferred income tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 1993 and a
description of the financial statement items creating these differences are as
follows:

(7)  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Company leased an operating facility with a lease termination date of
     February 28, 1994. The minimum rental commitments under the lease are
     $40,000 in 1994. The Company exercised its option under the agreement to
     purchase the facility during 1994 for approximately $500,000 in cash and
     the issuance of a note payable to the seller for approximately $1.6
     million. The related rental expense was $236,000 and $200,000 during 1993
     and 1992, respectively.

     The Company is a defendant in litigation arising in the normal course of
     business.  Management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters
     will not have a materially adverse effect on the consolidated financial
     position of the Company.

(8)  SHAREHOLDERS' AGREEMENT

     Effective February 27, 1987, the Company executed a Shareholders'
     Agreement which placed certain restrictions on the transferability of
     substantially all of the Company's common shares. In the event an employee
     shareholder, as defined in the Shareholders' Agreement, dies, retires,
     becomes permanently or totally disabled, or is terminated involuntarily
     without cause, such shareholder may offer all or any part of the shares
     owned to the Company. The Company is obligated to purchase all of the
     shares offered, at a purchase price equal to the per share book value. In
     the event such a shareholder is terminated for reasons other than the
     aforementioned reasons, the Company has the option to purchase all or any
     part of the shares owned by such shareholder at 85% of the per share book
     value.

(9)  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     On January 1, 1993, the Company entered into an employment agreement (the
     Agreement) with an executive (the Executive or Stockholder) of the
     Company. The Agreement is in effect for seven years with automatic
     one-year extensions unless the Company or the Executive terminates the
     Agreement in accordance with contract provisions.

     During 1992, the Company entered into an Agreement with the Stockholder to
     pay the premiums on a life insurance policy for the benefit of the
     Stockholder's estate. The advances made by the Company in payment of the
     premiums are secured by assignment of the policy to the Company solely to
     recover the amounts advanced by the Company.

(10) INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION PLAN

     The Company's 1987 Incentive Stock Option Plan, as revised, provides for
     the granting of qualified stock options to purchase 1,000 shares of common
     stock to eligible employees.

                                                                     (Continued)

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     The options are exercisable over a period determined by the Board of
     Directors, but no longer than ten years after the date they are granted,
     subject to the individual being an employee of the Company. However,
     options granted to individuals who own 10% or more of the combined voting
     power of all classes of stock of the Company have five years to exercise
     the option. The option price will be determined by the Company's Board of
     Directors but shall in no event be less than 100% of the fair market       
     value on the date of grant.

     At December 31, 1993, 830 options are outstanding with exercise prices of
     $1,148 and $2,545 per share for 500 and 330 of the options, respectively.
     No options were exercised during 1993. The options begin to expire between
     1997 and 2002.

(11) PROFIT SHARING PLAN

     The Company has a noncontributory profit-sharing plan (the Plan) covering
     substantially all domestic employees. The Company incurred Plan expenses
     totaling $697,602 and $761,973 during 1993 and 1992, respectively. The
     Company makes discretionary contributions to the Plan in amounts
     determined annually by management.

(12) INSURANCE

     The Company was self-insured for employee health claims up to $25,000 per
     individual from January 1, 1992 through April 30, 1992 and for up to
     $35,000 per individual from May 1, 1992 through December 31, 1993. Expense
     for employee health benefit claims and stop loss reinsurance premiums
     totaled $503,127 and $382,572 during 1993 and 1992, respectively.

     At December 31, 1993, a receivable of $2,379,585, net of an allowance of
     $2,790,000 related to disputed claims, was recorded related to the
     Company's claims under its insurance policy. The net insurance proceeds
     anticipated to be recovered are reflected as a reduction of turnkey
     drilling expenses as such proceeds represent reimbursements of redrilling
     and other costs incurred by the Company. Management believes the net
     receivable recorded as of December 31, 1993 is collectible.

(13) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

     The Company's sales and accounts receivable relate primarily to turnkey
     drilling activities.  At December 31, 1993, $22,064,593 of accounts
     receivable related to drilling activities in Central and South America. An
     allowance of $290,000 has been recorded as of December 31, 1993 for
     doubtful accounts. The net receivable balance is deemed to be collectible
     by management.

                                                                     (Continued)

(14) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED)

     The Company has recorded an accrual for $1,466,999 ($953,549 net of tax)
     related to a loss incurred on a domestic turnkey drilling contract in
     progress at December 31, 1993.  The Company is vigorously pursuing
     recovery of the loss from a drilling company from whom it rented equipment
     for the drilling of the well. The Company believes it will ultimately be
     able to recover a portion of this loss.

     During January 1994, the Company entered into negotiations to sell all of
     the outstanding stock of Triton Engineering Services Company to Noble
     Drilling Corporation. A letter of intent has been signed by both parties.
     The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
     relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset
     amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might
     result from the sale.
