                               MARITRANS INC.
             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 1.  Basis of Presentation/Organization
     ----------------------------------
     At March 31, 1994, Maritrans Inc. owns Maritrans Operating Partners
     L.P. ("the Operating Partnership") and Maritrans Holdings Inc.
     (collectively, the "Company").  These subsidiaries, directly and
     indirectly, own and operate tugs and barges principally used in the
     transportation of oil and related products, and own and operate
     petroleum storage facilities.

     On  March 31, 1993, the limited partners of Maritrans Partners L.P.
     (the "Partnership") voted on a proposal to convert the Partnership to
     corporate form (the "Conversion").  The proposal was approved, and on
     April 1, 1993, Maritrans Inc., then a newly-formed Delaware
     corporation ("the Corporation"), succeeded to all assets and
     liabilities of the Partnership.  The holders of general and limited
     partner interests in the Partnership and the Operating Partnership
     were issued shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share("Common
     Stock"), of the Corporation,  representing substantially the same
     percentage equity interest in the Corporation as they had in the
     Partnership, directly or indirectly, in exchange for their partnership
     interest.  Each previously held unit of limited partnership interest
     in the Partnership was exchanged for one share of Common Stock of the
     Corporation.  For financial accounting purposes, the conversion to
     corporate form has been treated as a reorganization of affiliated
     entities, with the assets and liabilities recorded at their historical
     costs.  In addition, the Partnership recognized a net deferred income
     tax liability for temporary differences in accordance with Statement
     of Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") No. 109, Accounting for
     Income Taxes, which resulted in a one-time charge to earnings of $16.6
     million in the first quarter of 1993.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed
     consolidated financial statements of Maritrans Inc., which are
     unaudited (except for the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
     December 31, 1993, which is derived from audited financial
     statements), include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
     accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial statements of the
     consolidated entities.

     Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
     Commission, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
     do not include all of the information and notes normally included with
     annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
     accepted accounting principles.  It is suggested that these financial
     statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated historical
     financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation's
     Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 1993.

 2.  Common Shares and Limited Partner Units
     ---------------------------------------
     Earnings per common share is based on 12,523,000 shares outstanding.
     The potential effect of outstanding stock options is not dilutive.

     Net income (loss) allocated to Limited Partners per Limited Partner
     unit is based on 12,250,000 outstanding units.

 3.  Income Taxes
     ------------
     The Company's effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory
     rate due primarily to state income taxes.

 ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          ---------------------------------------------
          Liquidity and Capital Resources
          -------------------------------
          With respect to the quarter ended March 31, 1994, funds provided
          by operating activities and investing transactions were
          sufficient to fully meet debt service obligations and loan
          agreement restrictions.  With conversion to corporate form,
          Maritrans is subject to corporate income taxes which may reduce
          cash flow from operations.  As previously described, for
          financial accounting purposes, the conversion to corporate form
          was treated as a reorganization of affiliated entities, with the
          assets and liabilities recorded at their historical costs.  In
          addition, the Partnership recognized, in the first quarter of
          1993, a net deferred income tax liability for temporary
          differences in accordance with FAS No. 109, Accounting for Income
          Taxes.

          Management believes that in 1994 funds provided by operating
          activities, augmented by financing and investing transactions,
          will be sufficient to provide the funds necessary for operations,
          anticipated capital expenditures, lease payments and required
          debt repayments.  At this time no dividends are expected to
          be made in 1994.

          Barring changes in its current plans, management believes capital
          expenditures in 1994 for improvements to its currently operating
          vessels and existing marine terminals will be less than $5
          million compared to $17 million in 1993, when substantial
          expenditures were made for vessel productivity improvements and
          marine terminal facility purchases.  However, the Company will
          continue to evaluate the potential purchase of marine storage
          terminal and other investments consistent with its long-term
          strategic interests, and the potential sources of funds for those
          potential investments.  Total capital expenditures of the Company
          through March 31, 1994 were $2.0 million.

          Liquidity and Capital Indicators
          --------------------------------
          As of March 31, 1994:
          Ratio of current assets to current liabilities        2.18
          Working capital (in thousands)                     $36,943
          Ratio of total debt to the sum of total debt
           and stockholders' equity                              .60

          Working Capital Position
          ------------------------
          Working capital increased from December 31, 1993 to March 31,
          1994. Current assets increased as a result of a significant
          increase in cash and cash equivalent balances due to operating
          activities.  Current liabilities decreased due to a decline in
          trade accounts payable and accrued shipyard costs, which were
          substantially offset by an increase in accrued interest. The
          ratio of current assets to current liabilities increased from
          1.94 at December 31, 1993 to 2.18 at March 31, 1994.

          Debt Obligations and Borrowing Facility
          ---------------------------------------
          At March 31, 1994, the Company had $116.3 million in total
          outstanding debt, secured by mortgages on substantially all of
          the fixed assets of the subsidiaries of the Corporation.  The
          current portion of this debt at March 31, 1994 is $6.3 million.
          The Company has a $10 million working capital facility, secured
          by its receivables and inventories, which expires June 30, 1994
          and which is expected to be renewed.  At March 31, 1994 there
          were no borrowings against this facility.

          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          ---------------------
          Three Month Comparison
          ----------------------
          Revenues
          --------
          Revenues of $33.1 million for the three months ended March 31,
          1994, increased by $0.9 million, or 2.8%, from revenues of $32.2
          million for the three months ended March 31, 1993. Barrels of
          cargo transported decreased by 0.7 million barrels, from 60.8
          million to 60.1 million, respectively. Despite the decline in
          volume,increased average daily charter revenues resulted from
          vessel demand caused by improved economic activity and harsh
          weather (both of which normally translate into high levels of oil
          consumption) in the Company's primary markets for marine
          transportation.  Revenue from sources other than marine
          transportation increased from 3.9% of total revenue, for the
          three months ended March 31, 1993, to 5.8% for the three months
          ended March 31, 1994, due to additional terminalling operations,
          contingency management activities, and other services supplied to
          third-party vessel owners.

          Results
          -------
          Operating expenses of $27.5 million for the three months ended
          March 31, 1994, decreased by $2.0 million, or 6.8%, from
          operating expenses of $29.5 million for the three months ended
          March 31, 1993. This decrease is primarily due to the
          streamlining measures initiated during the last quarter of 1993
          and, to a lesser extent, to a reduction in the expense associated
          with chartering vessels from others.

          Other income in the three months ended March 31, 1993 includes a
          $3.8 million gain on the sale of fixed assets, primarily four
          small barges that were excess to expected future business needs.

          The adoption of FAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, caused
          the Partnership to recognize a net deferred income tax provision
          of $16.6 million for the three months ending March 31, 1993.  The
          adoption of this accounting rule was prescribed by the conversion
          of the Partnership to corporate status, which occurred April 1,
          1993.

          Net income of $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31,
          1994, is $14.2 million higher than the net loss of $12.2 million
          for the three months ended March 31, 1993.  The loss in 1993 was
          the result of the previously noted provision for deferred income
          taxes.  Income before income taxes for the periods decreased to
          $3.2 million from $4.3 million in the comparable period last
          year.  The decrease is due in part to the inclusion of gains on
          sales of fixed assets   in 1993, as noted above.

          Management expects that earnings in the second quarter will not
          match its first quarter results due to refinery maintenance and
          anticipated industry inventory management practices.
