30,1998, due to available operating loss carry forwards.

these
increases, gas marketing increased $2,240,768 and $1,557,650 respectively.

month periods of which $2,290,713 and $1,600,364 were attributable to gas
purchases.  General and administrative expenses increased $40,802 for the

over the same periods for 1997.  Consulting and other fees accounted for 
$17,000 of the increase.  Net income decreased $2,285 for the nine month
period as compared to 1997.  Net income for the three month period ended
September 30, 1998, increased $42,063 over the income at June 30, 1998.  
Wells
were sold in the third quarter and the gain of $20,000 is included in other
income.  Plugging costs of $19,400 were reclassified to deferred liability
due
to a procedural change for handling such costs.  Gas marketing sales volume 
increased but profit decreased due to lower margins on spot deals.  This
decrease was offset by increases in income from field services.
