              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  JUNE 30, 2000



1.      Basis of Presentation/Organization
        Maritrans Inc. owns Maritrans Operating Partners L.P. ("the Operating
        Partnership"), Maritrans General Partner Inc., Maritrans Tankers Inc.,
        Maritrans Barge Co., Maritrans Holdings Inc. and other Maritrans
        entities (collectively, the "Company"). These subsidiaries, directly and
        indirectly, own and operate oil tankers, tugboats, and oceangoing
        petroleum tank barges principally used in the transportation of oil and
        related products, along the Gulf and Atlantic coasts.

        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, 1999, 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.

        The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
        accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
        assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements
        and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
        estimates.

        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. These financial statements should be
        read in conjunction with the consolidated historical financial
        statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the
        period ended December 31, 1999.

</TABLE>

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

4.      Share Buyback Program
        On February 9, 1999, the Board of Directors authorized a share buyback
        program for the acquisition of up to one million shares of the Company's
        common stock. This amount represented approximately 8 percent of the
        12.1 million shares outstanding at the beginning of the program. In
        February 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the acquisition of an
        additional one million shares in the program. As of June 30, 2000,
        1,101,700 shares have been repurchased under the plan and were financed
        from internally generated funds.

5.      Corporate Relocation and Downsizing
        In September 1999, the Company announced its intent to relocate the
        corporate headquarters from Philadelphia, PA to Tampa, FL. In April
        2000, this move occurred. The Company expenses costs associated with the
        move as incurred. As of June 30, 2000 the Company has incurred $0.6
        million of costs associated with the move. Also, in September 1999, the
        Company announced a reduction in its shoreside staff. The Company
        accrued $0.9 million of severance costs in September 1999 for the cash
        benefits to be paid to the employees who were terminated. Of this
        amount, approximately $0.7 million has been paid through June 30, 2000.

6.      Sale of Assets
        In June 2000, the Company sold real estate and equipment located in
        Philadelphia, PA. The proceeds of the sale totaled $1.75 million of
        which $1.575 million was received in the form of a note. The pre-tax
        loss on the sale was $0.7 million and is included in other income in the
        statement of income.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward Looking Information
Some of the statements in this Form 10-Q (the "10-Q") constitute forward-looking
statements under Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including
statements made with respect to present or anticipated utilization, future
revenues and customer relationships, capital expenditures, future financings,
and other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts and involve
predictions. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity, growth,
performance, earnings per share or achievements to be materially different from
any future results, levels of activity, growth, performance, earnings per share
or achievements expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements included in this 10-Q relate to future events or
the Company's future financial performance. In some cases, the reader can
identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "believe,"
"future," "potential," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "through,"
"provide," "meet," "allow," "represent," "result," "seek," "increase," "work,"
"perform," "make," "continue," "will," "include," or the negative of such terms
or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements inherently involve
certain risks and uncertainties, although they are based on the Company's
current plans or assessments that we believe are reasonable as of the date of
this 10-Q. Factors that may cause actual results, goals, targets or objectives
to differ materially from those contemplated, projected, forecast, estimated,
anticipated, planned or budgeted in such forward-looking statements include,
among others, the factors outlined in this 10-Q and general financial, economic,
environmental and regulatory conditions affecting the oil and marine
transportation industries in general. These factors may cause the Company's
actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement. Given
such uncertainties, current or prospective investors are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements.

Although the Company believes that the expectations in the forward-looking
statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels
of activity, performance, growth, earnings per share or achievements. However,
neither the Company nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy
and completeness of such statements. The Company is under no duty to update any
of the forward-looking statements after the date of this 10-Q to conform such
statements to actual results.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I Item 1 of this Form
10-Q and the audited financial statements and notes thereto and Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the
year ended December 31, 1999 contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.

Three Month Comparison

Revenue in the second quarter of 2000 was $28.1 million compared to $39.8
million in the second quarter of 1999, a decrease of $11.7 million or 29.4
percent. Revenue in the quarter decreased $10.4 million as a result of the
thirty-one vessels and the petroleum storage terminals that were sold in 1999.
Revenue on the remaining fleet was impacted by a decrease in utilization
compared to the same fleet in the second quarter of 1999. Although barrels of
cargo transported increased from 46.7 million in the second quarter of 1999 to
47.5 million in the second quarter of 2000, for the remaining comparable fleets,
vessel utilization decreased. Vessel utilization, as measured by revenue days
divided by calendar days available, decreased from 89 percent in the second
quarter of 1999 to 81.5 percent in the second quarter of 2000. This decrease was
the result of vessels being out of service in the quarter, two for normal
maintenance and the OCEAN 244 for its double hull rebuild. The OCEAN 244 will
continue to be out of service in the third quarter. The average daily rate
charged to customers increased over the comparable period in 1999 primarily due
to increased fuel costs, discussed in operating expenses below, most of which
the Company was able to pass through to customers under its contractual
agreements.

Total operating expenses in the second quarter of 2000 were $26.7 million
compared to $37.1 million in the second quarter of 1999, a decrease of $10.4
million or 28 percent. This decrease was due primarily to the sale of assets
discussed above. Offsetting this decrease was an increase in fuel expense for
fuel used on the vessels. The average price per gallon in the second quarter of
2000 was significantly higher than in the second quarter of 1999. The increased
fuel costs were offset by decreases in maintenance costs and overhead costs in
the second quarter of 2000 compared to the second quarter of 1999 for the
remaining fleet. In addition, the Company incurred $0.2 million in relocation
costs in the current quarter for the move of the corporate headquarters from
Philadelphia, PA to Tampa, FL.

Operating income decreased as a result of the aforementioned changes in revenue
and expenses.

Other income includes interest income of $1.0 million offset by a pre-tax loss
on the sale of Philadelphia real estate and equipment of $0.7 million.

Net income for the second quarter of 2000 decreased compared to the second
quarter of 1999 due to the aforementioned changes in revenue and expenses.

Six Month Comparison

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $58.7 million compared to
$78.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, a decrease of $19.5
million or 24.9 percent. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000
decreased $22.2 million due to the sale of assets discussed above. This decrease
was offset by an increase in revenue on the remaining fleet in the same period.
The average daily rate charged to customers increased compared to the same
period in 1999. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in fuel
costs, discussed in operating expenses below, that the Company was able to pass
through to its customers under its contractual agreements. Although barrels of
cargo transported increased from 87.7 million to 96.0 million, vessel
utilization decreased. Overall vessel utilization, including changes in the
fleet, as measured by revenue days divided by calendar days available, decreased
from 88.0 percent in the first half of 1999 to 86.4 percent for the first half
of 2000. This decrease is due to the shipyard schedules for the vessels, which
consisted of vessels that were in the shipyard for normal maintenance and the
OCEAN 244 which was in the shipyard for the entire second quarter of 2000
undergoing its double hull rebuild.

Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $56.7
million compared to $74.0 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, a decrease of
$17.3 million or 23 percent due primarily to the sale of assets in 1999
discussed above. The cost of fuel used on the vessels increased because the
average fuel price per gallon was significantly higher than in the same period
of 1999. The increased fuel costs were offset by decreases in maintenance costs
and overhead costs for the comparable six month periods for the remaining fleet.
Relocation costs for moving the corporate headquarters from Tampa, FL to
Philadelphia, PA were $0.6 million in 2000.

Operating income decreased as a result of the aforementioned changes in revenue
and expenses.

Other income includes interest income of $2.0 million offset by a pre-tax loss
on the sale of Philadelphia real estate and equipment of $0.7 million. Other
income for the first six months of 1999 includes a gain of $3.7 million, net of
noncash adjustments, on the disposition of five vessels. These vessels consisted
of two tug and barge units, which were working in Puerto Rico and a tugboat
working on the Atlantic Coast.

Net income for the first six months of 2000 decreased compared to the first six
months of 1999 due to the aforementioned changes in revenue and expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the six months ended June 30, 2000, funds provided by operating activities
were sufficient to meet debt service obligations and loan agreement
restrictions, to make capital acquisitions and improvements and to allow
Maritrans Inc. to pay a dividend of $0.10 per common share in the current
quarter. The ratio of total debt to the sum of total debt and stockholders
equity was 0.45:1 at June 30, 2000.

Management believes that in 2000, funds provided by operating activities,
augmented by financing and investing transactions, will be sufficient to finance
operations, anticipated capital expenditures, lease payments and required debt
repayments. While dividends were paid quarterly in each of the last two years,
there can be no assurances that dividend payments will continue.

On February 9, 1999, the Board of Directors authorized a share buyback program
for the acquisition of up to one million shares of the Company's common stock.
This amount represented approximately 8 percent of the 12.1 million shares
outstanding at the beginning of the program. In February 2000, the Board of
Directors authorized the acquisition of an additional one million shares in the
program. As of June 30, 2000, 1,101,700 shares have been repurchased under the
plan and have been financed from internally generated funds. The Company intends
to hold the majority of the repurchased shares as treasury stock, although some
shares will be used for employee compensation plans and others may be used for
acquisition currency and/or other corporate purposes.

On July 30, 1999, the Company awarded a contract to rebuild a second large
single hull barge, the OCEAN 244, to a double hull configuration. The rebuild is
expected to have a total cost of approximately $12 million. As of June 30, 2000,
$7.2 million has been paid to the shipyard contractor. The vessel went into the
shipyard late in the first quarter of 2000 and is expected to return to service
early in the fourth quarter of 2000. The Company has been and expects to
continue financing this project from internally generated funds.

In September 1999, the Company announced its intent to relocate the corporate
headquarters from Philadelphia, PA to Tampa, FL. In April 2000, this move
occurred. Although most of the employees who are relocating have moved as of
June 30, 2000, some employees will be moving in the third quarter of 2000. As of
June 30, 2000, the Company has incurred $0.6 million of costs associated with
the move. These costs will continue to be incurred into the third quarter of
2000. The Company maintains a Philadelphia office that supports the lightering
operations.

Also in September 1999, the Company announced a reduction in its shoreside
staff. The Company accrued $0.9 million of severance costs in September 1999 for
the cash benefits to be paid to the employees who were terminated. At June 30,
2000, approximately $0.7 million of the severance costs have been paid to the
terminated employees.

Debt Obligations and Borrowing Facility
At June 30, 2000, the Company had $74.0 million in total outstanding debt,
secured by mortgages on most of the fixed assets of the Company. The current
portion of this debt at June 30, 2000 was $7.8 million.

In 1997, Maritrans entered into a multi-year revolving credit facility for
amounts up to $33 million with Mellon Bank, N.A. that are collateralized by
mortgages on tankers. In 2000, this facility was extended to October 30, 2002.
At June 30, 2000, $19.5 million was outstanding under this facility.

Part II:  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.         Legal Proceedings
                In Maritrans Inc., et al v. United States, Maritrans sued the
                United States in 1996 alleging that the double hull requirement
                of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 ("OPA") which requires
                retirement of Maritrans' fleet of single-hulled barges, is a
                "taking" under the fifth amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
                Maritrans is seeking in excess of $250 million in compensation
                for this taking. A trial was held in July 1997 on the
                preliminary issue of whether Maritrans had a cognizable property
                interest that could be subject to taking.

                In an Order dated October 29, 1997, the United States Court of
                Federal Claims held that, at the time Maritrans built or
                acquired its single-hulled tank barges, it could not have
                reasonably anticipated that double hulls would be required
                within the working lifetime of the vessels. This Order cleared
                the way for further proceedings which will determine whether
                OPA's double-hull requirements constitute a taking, and, if so,
                the amount of compensation to be paid to Maritrans. The written
                opinion of this Order was handed down on April 24, 1998. On
                April 30, 1999, the Court ruled that the case was ripe only with
                respect to vessels that OPA had forced out of service, which
                would include vessels that Maritrans had sold, scrapped or
                rebuilt.

                Maritrans and the United States have agreed on a joint proposed
                schedule, which calls for discovery on the remaining issues to
                commence in December 1999 and for the trial to occur in January
                2001. The parties are awaiting a court response to the proposed
                scheduling order.
