                  REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Retirement Committee of the Getty Petroleum
  Corp. Retirement and Profit Sharing Plan:

     We have audited the financial statements of the GETTY PETROLEUM
CORP. RETIREMENT AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN (the "Plan"), as listed in
the accompanying index.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these 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 financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for
Plan benefits as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in net
assets available for Plan benefits for the year ended December 31,
1993 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

     Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental
schedules, as listed in the accompanying index on page 1, are
presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a
required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary
information required by the Department of 


                                  -2-
                                   

Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

                         GETTY PETROLEUM CORP.
                  RETIREMENT AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN
                    Notes to Financial Statements

1.  Description of Plan

     The following brief description of the Getty Petroleum Corp.
Retirement and Profit Sharing Plan (the "Plan") is provided for
general information purposes only.  Participants should refer to the
Plan Agreement for more complete information.

     The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees
age twenty-one and older of Getty Petroleum Corp. (the "Company"), who
have completed one year of service, except those covered by a
collective bargaining agreement or other retirement plan sponsored by
the Company.  The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).  In 1987, the Plan was
amended to provide for the benefits available under Section 401(k) of
the Internal Revenue Code.

     Employees may make voluntary contributions to the Plan in an
amount up to 6% of their compensation and the Company matches an
amount equal to 50% of such employee contributions. Under the Plan,
employees may make additional contributions amounting to 9% of
compensation which are not matched by the Company.  The Company may
also make a profit sharing contribution to the Plan at the discretion
of the Company's Board of Directors.

     Contributions to the Plan may be invested in three available
investment funds allocated in multiples of 25% at the election of the
employee.  Fund A is a Fixed Income Investment Fund, which consists
primarily of fixed income obligations of Massachusetts Mutual Life
Insurance Company ("Massachusetts Mutual") and, accordingly, is
subject to their credit worthiness.  Fund B is a Diversified
Investment Fund, which consists primarily of capital stock of issuers
other than those of the Company or an affiliated company.  Fund C is
an Employer Common Stock Fund, which is a fund consisting entirely of
common stock of the Company.

     Funds A and B are administered by Massachusetts Mutual under a
group annuity contract in effect since August 1985.  Under Fund A,
Massachusetts Mutual maintains the contributions and related
accumulated investment earnings in an unallocated fund which earns
interest at a minimum guaranteed rate which is revised at the
beginning of each contract year (8.22% and 8.76% average interest
rates for the years ended December 31, 1993 and December 31, 1992,
respectively).  Under Fund B, Massachusetts Mutual maintains the
contributions and related accumulated investment earnings in a pooled
separate investment account which is not guaranteed as to either
principal or a stated rate of investment return.  Fund C is
administered by the Company.

                  RETIREMENT AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN
               Notes to Financial Statements, Continued

     Employees are only permitted to withdraw deferred cash
contributions made to the Plan subsequent to October 1, 1987 under the
provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for
"financial hardships", as defined by the Internal Revenue Code.
Employees may withdraw their voluntary contributions, including the
vested portion of employer matching contributions, once per calendar
year, although they will be subject to certain suspension periods with
respect to making future contributions.  Employees may withdraw all or
part of their account balances attributable to additional and rollover
contributions without penalty.  Rollover contributions cannot be
withdrawn unless they have been in the Plan for a minimum of two
years.  Profit sharing contributions may not be withdrawn while the
employee is employed by the Company.

     Employee contributions (including related accumulated investment
earnings) are 100% vested. Employer contributions vest in accordance
with the following schedule:

               Years of Service         Percent Vested
               --------------------     --------------
               2 years                       20%
               3 years                       40
               4 years                       60
               5 years                       80
               6 or more years              100


     Upon termination of employment, the non-vested portion of
employer contributions, if any, will be forfeited by the employee and
applied to reduce the Company's future contributions.


2.  Summary of significant accounting policies
