Item 6.     Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another

            The Long-Term Stock Savings Plan (LTSSP) borrowed
            $250 million in 1988 and $400 million in 1990 to purchase
            Phillips Petroleum Company common stock (Phillips Stock).  
            The LTSSP also holds shares purchased with contributions by
            participants.  In addition, the LTSSP holds Phillips Stock
            formerly held by the Employee Stock Ownership Plan of
            Phillips Petroleum Company (ESOP) and the Payroll Stock
            Ownership Plan of Phillips Petroleum Company Subsidiary
            Companies (PAYSOP), which were merged into the LTSSP in
            1988.  The total LTSSP shares as of December 31, 1995,
            consisted of 16,405,787 unallocated shares and
            15,684,621 shares allocated to participants.  The
            unallocated shares will be allocated to participants as the
            LTSSP loans are repaid. Dividends paid on shares of
            Phillips Stock purchased with all participant contributions
            and on shares of Phillips Stock acquired with company
            contributions after August 4, 1989, become assets of the
            LTSSP and are included in the valuation of participants'
            accounts.  Dividends paid on the shares purchased with the


                                    2

            proceeds of the loans, on shares purchased with company
            dividend replacement contributions, and on shares
            attributable to company contributions which were acquired
            prior to August 5, 1989, in the ESOP, PAYSOP and LTSSP are
            used to repay the LTSSP loans.  Shares acquired with the
            two loans, in an amount equal to the value of dividends on
            Phillips Stock retained by the LTSSP for loan repayment,
            are allocated to and included in the valuation of
            participant accounts.  Under certain circumstances,
            participants have the right to make withdrawals or receive
            distributions from the LTSSP in shares of Phillips Stock
            and in cash representing the value of any fractional
            shares.  Shares of Phillips Stock held by the LTSSP are
            sold to make the cash payments representing any such
            fractional shares.

            In December 1995, the company extended the LTSSP to the
            year 2015.  Without the extension, allocations of stock to
            employees would have been completed in 2005 or before.  The
            new extension will require additional shares to be
            delivered to the LTSSP.  The LTSSP will be eligible to
            receive shares from the company's Compensation and Benefits
            Trust, also established in December 1995.

                 acquired in the ordinary course of business and were not

                 securities and were not acquired in connection with or as a
                 participant in any transaction having such purposes or
                 effect.
