Phillips Petroleum Company
Phillips Building
Bartlesville, Oklahoma 74004

Dear Sirs:

         I have acted as counsel for Phillips Petroleum Company, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation of the
Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-01209),
filed by the Company and Phillips 66 Capital I, Phillips 66 Capital II,
Phillips 66 Capital III and Phillips 66 Capital IV (each, a "Phillips Capital
Trust" and, together, the "Phillips Capital Trusts") with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on February 26, 1996 under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), and Amendment No. 1 thereto, filed with the
Commission on April 19, 1996 (such Registration Statement, as so amended, being
hereinafter referred to as the "Registration Statement"), in connection with
the proposed offering from time to time of an aggregate of up to $750,000,000
principal amount of Subordinated Debt Securities ("Debt Securities") by the
Company and Trust Preferred Securities ("Preferred Securities") by the Phillips
Capital Trusts.  The Debt Securities may be issued under one or more Indentures
(the "Indenture") proposed to be entered into between the Company and The Bank
of New York as Trustee.  The Securities are proposed to be sold by the Company
and the Phillips Capital Trusts, to one or more underwriters (the
"Underwriters"), pursuant to one or more Underwriting Agreements between the
Company and the Phillips Capital Trusts and the Underwriters (the "Underwriting
Agreement").  The Preferred Securities of each Phillips Capital Trust are to be
issued pursuant to the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust of such
Phillips Capital Trust (each, a "Declaration" and, collectively, the
"Declarations"), each such Declaration being among the Company, as sponsor and
as the issuer of certain Securities to be held by the Institutional Trustee (as
defined below) of such Phillips Capital Trust, The Bank of New York (Delaware),
as Delaware trustee (the "Delaware Trustee"), the Bank of New York, as
institutional trustee (the "Institutional Trustee") and T.C. Morris, John A.
Carrig and L.L. McCall, as trustees (together, the "Regular Trustees").   The
Preferred Securities will be guaranteed by the Company in the manner and to the
extent set forth in a Guarantee Agreement (the "Preferred Securities
Guarantees"), the form of which is being filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.

         This opinion is being delivered in accordance with the requirements of
Item 601(b) (5) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act.  Capitalized terms
used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Registration Statement.

         In connection with this opinion, I have examined the originals or
copies, certified or otherwise authenticated to my satisfaction, of such
corporate records of the Company, agreements and other instruments,
certificates of public officials and of officers of the Company and other
instruments and documents as I have deemed necessary to require as a basis for
the opinions hereinafter expressed.  As to various questions of fact material
to such opinions, I have, where relevant facts were not independently
established, relied upon statements of officers of the Company.

         In my examination, I have assumed the legal capacity of all natural
persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents
submitted to me as originals, the conformity to original documents of all
documents submitted to me as certified or photostatic copies and the
authenticity of the originals of such copies.  In making my examination of
documents executed by parties other than the Company, I have assumed that such
parties had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all
obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all
requisite action, corporate or other, and execution and delivery by such
parties of such documents and that, except as set forth in paragraph 1 below,
such documents constitute valid and binding obligations of such parties.  In
addition, I have assumed that the Indentures will be duly authorized, executed
and delivered by the Trustee and that any Security that may be issued will be
manually signed or countersigned, as the case may be, by duly authorized
officers of the Trustee.

         I am admitted to the bar of the State of Oklahoma and express no
opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.

         On the basis of the foregoing, I advise you that in my opinion:

         1.      With respect to any series of Debt Securities, when (i) the
Registration Statement, as finally amended (including all necessary
post-effective amendments), has become effective and the applicable Indenture
has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended; (ii) an
appropriate prospectus supplement or term sheet with respect to the Debt
Securities has been prepared, delivered and filed in compliance with the
Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder; (iii) if
the Securities are to be sold pursuant to a firm commitment underwritten
offering, the Underwriting Agreement with respect to the Debt Securities has
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the other
parties thereto; (iv) the Board of Directors, including any appropriate
committee appointed thereby, and appropriate officers of the Company have taken
all necessary corporate action to approve the issuance and

terms of the Securities and related matters; (v) the terms of the Debt
Securities and of their issuance and sale have been duly established in
conformity with the applicable Indenture so as not to violate any applicable
law, the Restated Certificate of incorporation or By-laws of the Company or
result in a default under or breach of any agreement or instrument binding upon
the Company and so as to comply with any requirement or restriction imposed by
any court or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company; and (vi)
the Debt Securities have been duly executed and authenticated in accordance
with the provisions of the applicable Indenture and duly delivered to the
purchasers thereof upon payment of the agreed-upon consideration therefor, the
Debt Securities, when issued and sold in accordance with the applicable
Indenture and the applicable Underwriting Agreement, if any, or any other duly
authorized, executed and delivered valid and binding purchase or agency
agreement, will be valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable
against the Company in accordance with their respective terms, except to the
extent that enforcement thereof may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect
relating to creditors' rights generally and (b) general principles of equity
(regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or
in equity).

         2.      The Preferred Securities Guarantee, when duly executed and
delivered by the parties thereto, will be a valid and binding agreement of the
Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms except to
the extent that (a) enforcement thereof may be limited by (i) bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization moratorium, or other similar laws now or thereafter
in effect relating to creditors' rights generally and (ii) general principles
of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding
at law or in equity).

         I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the
reference to me under "Legal Opinions" in the prospectus forming a part of the
Registration Statement.  In giving this consent, I do not thereby admit that I
come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7
of the Securities Act or the rules or regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission thereunder.

                                        Very truly yours,



                                        Dale J. Billam
                                        Senior Counsel
