          General

     Excel Resources, Inc., formerly named Dover Capital Corp. (together with
its direct and indirect subsidiaries, the "Registrant" or the "Company"), was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 1, 1988. The
Company was initially organized to identify, investigate and acquire suitable
assets, properties or other business opportunities that management believed to
have good business potential.  Upon formation, the Company issued 2,875,000
shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock"),
constituting all of its then issued shares of Common Stock, to Frisco, Inc.
("Frisco").  On or about December 31, 1991, Frisco distributed all of the
Company's outstanding Common Stock to the shareholders of Frisco at no cost. 
Effective July 12, 1993, in exchange for 5,100,000 shares of Common Stock, the
Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Excel
Resources, Inc., a privately-held Texas corporation ("Excel Texas"), which is
presently a wholly- owned subsidiary of the Company.  On or about this time,
the Company changed its corporate name to "Excel Resources, Inc."

     Excel Texas engages primarily in production and marketing of natural gas
in the Gulf Coast region of the United States.  In addition, Excel Texas is
involved in designing, installing and operating pipelines and gathering
systems.

     As of December 31, 1995, the Company had ten employees, all employed in
Texas.  The Company considers its relationship with its current employees to
be good.

          Marketing

     The natural gas marketing activities in connection with gas purchased by
Excel Gas Marketing, Inc., an affiliate of the Company, from third-party
producers, were curtailed to a minimal level in 1995.  Consequently, gross
revenues and cost of goods sold have declined to $3.7 million and $1.8
million, respectively in 1995 from $35.2 million and $34.2 million in 1994.

     During 1995, the Company sold its Katy Interconnect Facilities.  Its
other two pipelines are not currently active.  However, the Company currently
is seeking additional acquisitions of pipeline assets.  See "Business-Recent
Acquisitions and Dispositions."

     Except as described above, the Company does not have any patents,
trademarks, franchises or concessions the loss of which would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position.

          Competitive Conditions

     Although supplies of natural gas have been abundant during the last ten
years, the demand and supply of natural gas became more closely aligned during
the last quarter of 1995.  The lack of significant new production and
pipeline capacity constraints have prompted significant price increases during
the last quarter of 1995.  The reliability of supply remains a major issue for
consumers; therefore, those major producers and marketers who are best able to
assure reliable supplies are able to charge premium prices for their natural
gas.  The major producers and marketers additionally enjoy a competitive
advantage over smaller and medium-sized companies such as the Company.  Their
greater financial, technical and other resources available enable them to
provide both bundled and unbundled services.  

     The Company has focused its reserve acquisition effort in the Gulf Coast
region, and now owns significant natural gas and oil reserves in federal
waters located offshore Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida.
The Company continues to pursue additional reserve acquisitions, as well as
the acquisition of other oil and gas assets including pipelines, processing
facilities and gathering systems consistent with the Company's long-term
business strategy.  See "Business-Recent Acquisitions and Dispositions."  In
pursuing these acquisitions, the Company frequently competes against companies
with substantially larger financial and other resources.  To the extent the
Company's acquisition and production budget is lower than that of certain of
its competitors, the Company may be disadvantaged in effectively competing for
such acquisitions.  Competitive factors include price, contract terms and
quality of services, including pipeline connection times and distribution
efficiencies.

     The Company believes that the continuing deregulation of the natural gas
industry will allow it to compete more effectively with certain of the major
producers and marketers.  See "Business-Regulation."  Many of the major
companies have overhead costs to market their natural gas that are higher than
the Company's.  Their margins, therefore, must be higher than the Company's,
whose considerably lower overhead costs could allow it to be profitable with
smaller margins, thus giving it a potential competitive advantage.

          Regulation

     Domestic Regulation of Natural Gas and Crude Oil Production.  Natural gas
and crude oil production, marketing, transportation and gathering operations
are subject to various types of regulation, including regulation in the United
States by state and federal agencies.

     Domestic legislation affecting the oil and gas industry is under constant
review for amendment or expansion.  Also, numerous departments and agencies,
both federal and state, are authorized by statute to issue, and have issued,
rules and regulations which, among other things, require permits for the
drilling of wells, regulate the spacing of wells, prevent the waste of natural
gas and crude oil resources through proration, require drilling bonds and
regulate environmental and safety matters.  The regulatory burden on the oil
and gas industry increases its cost of doing business and, consequently,
affects its profitability.

     Operations conducted by the Company on federal oil and gas leases, such
as the Company's operations on the Mafla Field and Bounty Properties, must
comply with numerous statutory and regulatory restrictions.  Certain
operations must be conducted pursuant to appropriate permits issued by various
government agencies and authorities.

     The transportation and sale for resale of natural gas in interstate
commerce are regulated pursuant to the Natural Gas Act of 1938 (the "NGA") and
the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (the "NGPA").  These statutes are
administered by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC").  Effective
January 1, 1993, the Natural Gas Wellhead Decontrol Act of 1989 deregulated
natural gas prices for all "first sales" of natural gas, which includes all
sales by the Company of its own production.  Consequently, sales of the
Company's natural gas currently may be made at market prices, subject to
applicable contract provisions.

     Since 1985, the FERC has endeavored to make natural gas transportation
more accessible to gas buyers and sellers on an open and non-discriminatory
basis.  These efforts have significantly altered the marketing and pricing of
natural gas.  The FERC's  actions in this area have been the promulgation and
implementation of the Order No. 636 series of orders issued since April 1992,
and various other orders such as Order No. 547 and Order No. 497-E.  The net
result of these orders has been to increase the competition within the natural
gas industry and to enhance the Company's ability to market and transport its
natural gas production. 

     The Company owns, and is considering the acquisition of, certain natural
gas pipelines that it believes meet the traditional tests the FERC has used to
establish a pipeline's status as a gatherer not subject to FERC jurisdiction
under the NGA.  State regulation of gathering facilities generally includes
various safety, environmental, and in some circumstances, non-discriminatory
take requirements, but does not generally entail rate regulation.  Natural gas
gathering may receive greater regulatory scrutiny at both the state and
federal levels as the pipeline restructuring is completed. The Company's
gathering operations could be adversely affected should they be become subject
in the future to the application of state or federal regulation of rates and
services.

     The Company cannot predict the effect that any of the aforementioned
orders or the challenges to such orders will ultimately have on the Company's
operations.  Additional proposals and proceedings that might affect the
natural gas industry are pending before Congress, the FERC and the courts. 
The Company cannot predict when or whether any such proposals or proceedings
may become effective.  It should also be noted that the natural gas industry
historically has been very heavily regulated; therefore, there is no assurance
that the less regulated approach currently being pursued by the FERC will
continue indefinitely.  

     Environmental Regulation.  Various federal, state and local laws and
regulations covering the discharge of materials into the environment, or
otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, may affect the
Company's operations and costs as a result of their effect on natural gas
production, transportation, gathering and marketing operations.  It is not
anticipated that the Company will be required in the near future to expend
material amounts by reason of environmental laws and regulations, but inasmuch
as such laws and regulations are frequently changed, the Company is unable to
predict the ultimate cost of compliance.

          Seasonality

     The Company's results of operations fluctuate from quarter to quarter,
due in part to the impact of seasonal factors on the prices and sales volumes
of natural gas.  Such prices usually increase during the winter due to greater
heating requirements.  Demand is also typically higher in the summer than in
the spring and fall, reflecting use by electric utilities for air
conditioning.  In addition, demand related to weather conditions may vary
significantly over short periods of time if, for example, temperatures change
suddenly.

          Recent Acquisitions and Dispositions

     The Company did not make any significant or material acquisitions or
dispositions in 1995. 

          Additional Equity Financing

     The Company pursued equity financing throughout 1995, with its efforts
being  concentrated on the European financial markets.  In the January through
April, 1995 time period, the Company successfully realized, as a result of
these efforts, a total of $2.0 million.  For the remainder of 1995, another
$1.6 million was realized from these efforts, bringing the total for the year
(net of commission fees) to $3.6 million.  See Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition for more information on the Company's equity
funding efforts.

Item 2.        Properties

     Excel Texas entered into a ten year office lease agreement March 8, 1990,
in the Texaco Heritage Plaza building in downtown Houston, Texas.  The lease
was amended effective March 1, 1993, with Excel Texas relocating to a larger
space.  The new lease covers 8,866 square feet.  Amended lease terms call for
annual base rent payments of approximately $69,000 for the lease-year ended
February 28, 1995, $73,000 for the next two lease-years ending February 29,
1997, and $78,000 for the following three lease-years.  See "Business - Recent
Acquisitions and Dispositions" for additional information about the Company's
properties.

Item 3.   Legal Proceedings

     The Company and Excel Gas Marketing, Inc., an affiliate of the Company,
are either individually or jointly involved in a number of claims, as well as
litigation, for breach of contract primarily arising from the nonpayment for
natural gas purchased.  Liquidity problems encountered by both the Company and
Excel Gas Marketing, Inc. during 1994 were the primary factors giving rise to
such claims.  Management believes that the outcome of such litigation will not
have a material adverse effect upon the Company, since all claims, excluding
legal fees (which the Company believes will be immaterial in amount), are
properly reflected in the financial statements.  The Company is continuing its
efforts to secure funding sufficient to pay all amounts for which it is
liable.  The following is a listing of those legal actions:

July 6, 1994, Scana Hydrocarbons, Inc. filed suit against Excel Gas Marketing,
Inc. ( Excel Gas Marketing ) for breach of contract for nonpayment of
$252,818, plus interest and legal costs.  The suit also claimed fraud on the
part of Excel Gas Marketing for failure to place gas sales contract proceeds
into an escrow account.  Excel Gas Marketing and the Company have finalized a
settlement of this suit, which settlement provides for amounts remaining due
to Scana to be paid in monthly installments over a one-year period beginning
March 15, 1996.  Neither the March payment nor any subsequent payment due
thereafter has been made.

July 19, 1994, Entex, a division a NorAm Energy Corporation, filed a Petition
of Interpleader in the Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas,
against the Company and Excel Gas Marketing.  The action caused a total of
$1,969,349.49 of accounts receivable due to the Company to be placed with the
clerk of the court for distribution to the appropriate parties.  The
Interpleader was filed by Entex to make payments to other parties of the funds
owed to the Company and Excel Gas Marketing.  These claims were made due to
the Company s and Excel Gas Marketing s failure to pay outstanding natural gas
purchases.  The mediation for the Petition of Interpleader was held on July
27, 1995, with all parties to the action agreeing to the distribution of the
above mentioned funds.  Two major creditors received a total of $1,700,000. 
The balance of the funds were distributed on a pro-rata basis among the
remaining creditor parties to the action.  In addition, in connection with the
mediation process, Cypress Operating Company obtained an agreed judgment
against Excel Gas Marketing for $117,648.56, plus interest and attorneys'
fees.  Mobil Natural Gas, Inc. was granted an agreed judgment against Excel
Gas Marketing and Excel Texas in the amount of $2,911,754, plus post judgment

is an additional named defendant in such action and is the party against whom
the suit was originally filed.  American s suit also seeks to recover from the
Company (i) an unspecified amount of damages on the basis of breach of
contract and fraud and (ii) attorneys  fees.  Although the Company believes it
has met all its obligations in connection with the subject matter of this
action, we cannot predict the outcome of the suit.  The Company will, however,
vigorously defend the suit.

December 28, 1995, Bounty Group, Inc. filed suit against the Company in the
District Court of Harris County, Texas, for breach of contract due to failure
to make certain payments as they became due under the provisions of a
promissory note originally executed for an amount equal to one hundred eighty
thousand dollars ($180,000.00).  Bounty is seeking to recover the unpaid
principal and interest, the aggregate of which bounty claims to be $66,493.59
as of December 31, 1995, together with subsequent interest applicable to such
amounts, court costs and attorneys' fees.  The Company is currently making
efforts to negotiate a settlement of this suit.
 
May 8, 1996, Williams Energy Services Company, formerly Williams Gas Marketing
Company, filed suit against the Company in the District Court of Tulsa County,
Oklahoma, for breach of contract due to nonpayment of gas purchases of
$10,635.20, plus attorneys  fees and court costs.  The Company is currently
finalizing a settlement of this suit.

June 24, 1996, CNG Producing Company, filed suit against Bounty Group, Inc.
and the Company in the Civil District Court for Orleans Parish, Louisiana, for
the recoupment of the cash value of a production imbalance attributable to the
overproduction by Bounty and its predecessors-in-interest that allegedly
became due and payable to CNG by the overproduced working interest owner upon
the cessation of production from a gas producing that ceased gas production
within a very short period after the effective date of the property purchase
by the Company from Bounty.  CNG is seeking payment of the value of the gas
imbalance, which amount is claimed to be $84,324.01, interest on such amount,
court costs and attorney's fees. The Company's answer to the suit is pending.

     By virtue of the foregoing claims, the ability of the Company to continue
its operations as a "going concern" is substantially in doubt.  See the
caption "Financial Statements and Financial Statement Schedules" of this

Item 7.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and      
          
     Results of Operations

     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto.

          General

     The Company management continues to believe that the long-term
opportunities for servicing the natural gas market are numerous and that the
outlook for the future remains bright for the industry.  The cycle of lower
gas prices that began in mid 1994, continued throughout the first three
quarters of 1995.  However, after falling to a floor of $1.40 to $1.50 per
MMBtu in the fall of 1995, natural gas prices began to increase in response to
the consuming sector's anticipation of a strong winter demand for gas.  As
management's 1994 price forecast had predicted for the 1995-1996 winter,
natural gas prices rose above $2 per MMBtu, continued to firm throughout the
winter season, and at times exceeded $3.50 per MMBtu at the wellhead in the
Gulf Coast region.  Market demand challenged pipeline delivery systems
throughout the central and eastern United States, where pipeline capacity
proved insufficient to deliver total available supplies from the Gulf Coast
producing regions to northeast and Chicago markets.  These pipeline
constraints were a major contributing factor to the numerous spikes in gas
prices that occurred throughout the 1995-1996 heating season.

     Prices have remained strong throughout both the winter and the second
quarter of 1996;  ranging from about $2.20 to $2.50 per MMBtu in the second
quarter.  Natural gas futures indicate continued price strength well into mid-
1997.  This is compatible with the view Company management had expressed in
last year's analysis of future gas prices, when management predicted that the
then existing low-price commodity cycle would be short lived and that prices
would return to levels of $2 per MMBtu and above by 1996.  Management, at that
time, held a very positive view regarding the fundamental factors for the
natural gas industry, a view it continues to hold today.  In fact, industry
surveys have recently predicted that new records in total United States gas
demand will be set in 1996, and that demand will increase thirty percent (30%)
over the next twenty years.

     The basic realignment of the natural gas industry, initially precipitated
by the low-price cycle, continued throughout 1995.  The underlying market
perception regarding long-term supply availability, reliability of supply,
flexibility in services provided and pricing among both producers and
consumers has continued to generate change throughout the industry.  Among
these changes are a redefinition of producer risk and strategy, a continued
reduction of gas brokerage margins, and increased activity in connection with
acquisitions, mergers, consolidations and strategic alliances among and/or
between both major and smaller sized industry participants. 

     The redeployment of assets in the gathering, processing and marketing
functions, which began in 1994, reached virtually every segment of the
industry during 1995, and in the first half of 1996.  This trend has been
fueled by the continuing divestiture of gathering assets by regulated pipeline
companies into non-regulated businesses.  Also, as state utility commissions
in many states promulgate rules and regulations to introduce market
competition at the local distributor level (behind the city gate), realignment
in the gas marketing segment of the industry continues to accelerate.

     The recent price cycle of natural gas and the price expectations for the
near term future, coupled with the structural changes underway, have
significantly changed who the industry participants are and how business is
being, and will be, conducted.  Many major energy companies have redefined who
they are and what will be their major business plans giving rise to several
very large mergers, acquisitions and joint venture partnerships.  These have
been characterized by the pooling of significant financial and productive
resources.  The Company management continues to believe that the current
deregulation of the natural gas industry and the predicted deregulation of the
electricity industry before the year 2000, present the Company with many
attractive opportunities.  These structural changes in the energy industry
will allow it to compete more effectively with certain of the major producers
and marketers considering the Company's significantly lower overhead costs.

     This time of change and the conditions driving the changes provide the
Company with a unique set of opportunities to acquire production properties
and pipeline facilities to achieve the Company's vision.  Nevertheless, the
Company cannot take advantage of these opportunities without significantly
improving its financial condition, including securing additional debt or
equity financing.

          Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 1995, Compared
          to the Year Ended December 1994

     Gross revenues for fiscal year 1995, of $3.7 million decreased by $31.4
million, or 89%, from 1994.  This decrease was offset by a decrease in the
cost of sales of $32.4 million, or 95% from 1994.  The cost of sales consists
primarily of purchases of third-party natural gas and lease operating expenses
for Company-owned production.  The decrease in sales was due primarily to the
smaller volume of gas marketed by the Company's affiliate, Excel Gas
Marketing, Inc., and the decrease in natural gas prices the majority of the
year.  The decrease in sales can also be attributed to the Company's liquidity
problems which began in 1994.  The gross margin was $131,335 in 1995, compared
to a gross margin deficit of $2,098,017 in 1994.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses which consist primarily of
salaries, office rent, advertising, professional fees for legal and accounting
services, financing activity expenses and other general operating expenses
increased by $508,964, or 18%, from 1994 to 1995.  The increase is
attributable primarily to increased legal services fees and travel expenses
incurred in connection with the pursuit of additional capital funding for the
Company.  Salaries and wages expense decreased slightly during 1995.

     Net non-operating expenses of the Company decreased by $973,057 from
$2,219,154 in 1994, to $1,246,097 in 1995, primarily due to decreases in
interest expense, decrease in losses on disposition of assets and the
elimination of factoring fees.

          Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 1994, Compared
          to the Year Ended December 31, 1993

     Gross revenues for fiscal year 1994 decreased by $96.8 million, or 73.3%,
from 1993.  This decrease was offset by a decrease in the cost of sales of
$95.5 million, or 73.3%, from 1993.  The decrease in sales (and in cost of
sales) was due to the smaller volume of gas marketed by the Company's
affiliate, Excel Gas Marketing, Inc. (and therefore purchased by Excel Gas
Marketing, Inc.), as well as a decrease in natural gas prices.  The decrease
in sales can also be attributed to the liquidity problems the Company was
experiencing. The gross margin became negative in 1994, compared to a positive
1.7% in 1993.  The decreasing sales volumes, decreasing price of natural gas,
and higher depreciation, depletion and amortization cost in 1994 resulted in
the reduced margins.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses, which consist primarily of
salaries, office rent, advertising, professional fees and other operating
expenses, increased by $1,067,751, or 40.7%, from 1993 to 1994, even though
salaries decreased by $346,595 or 27.1%.  This general and administrative
expense increase is due primarily to three factors.  First, professional fees
increased by $426,023, or 244.2%, due to costs related to potential
acquisitions and demand for outside legal services generated by the threatened
and pending litigation associated with the Company's creditors.  Second, the
Company recorded an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $65,000.  The
allowance was $50,000 in the prior year.  In addition there were bad debt
write-offs in 1994, of $334,474, compared to none in the prior year.  Third,
the fees paid to outside consultants increased by $471,243, from $36,000 in
1993, to $507,483 in 1994.  The fees primarily were paid to outside
consultants for the acquisition of the Gulf Coast Offshore properties and the
acquisition of the Mestana Grande and Katy pipeline facilities.

     Net non-operating expenses of the Company increased by $2,101,503 from
$117,651 in 1993, to $2,219,154 in 1994, primarily due to $1,404,078 in
interest paid, $680,930 loss on sale of equipment, and $135,615 in factoring
fees experienced in 1994.

          Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The primary sources of cash for the Company for fiscal 1995, included
funds generated from current and past operations, proceeds from the sale of
certain assets and equity financing proceeds.  

     Net cash flow used in operations was $2,679,798 in 1995, as compared to
cash flow provided by operations of $2,795,883 in 1994.  The primary reasons
for the negative cash flow in 1995 were a decrease in accounts receivable due
largely to the distribution of over $2.0 million of certain "interpleader"
funds (See "Item 3. Legal Proceedings"), the write-off of accounts considered
uncollectible, a decrease in accounts payable of $4,301,102, a decrease of
$1,345,320 in depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses, and a
decrease in accrued expenses of $706,808. 

     Net cash provided by investing activities during 1995 was $434,476,
primarily consisting of proceeds from the sale of property and equipment. This
contrasts with net cash used in investing activities in 1994 of $1,549,726
consisting of capital expenditures of $5,069,888 for asset acquisitions,
proceeds from the sale of equipment of $3,374,000 and a reduction in the note
receivable from stockholder of $146,612.

     Net cash provided by financing activities in 1995 was $2,232,712.  This
is primarily attributable to the sale of $3,595,200 of the Company's common
stock and to repayment of notes payable of $2,361,452.  Proceeds from
borrowing in 1995 were $998,964.

     The Company's current trade receivables and other current assets are less
than the Company's current liabilities, with the total current assets being
$265,970 and current liabilities being $12,432,778 as of December 31,
1995.
      During 1995, the Company received approximately $3.6 million in equity
financing from Union Financiere Privee S.A. (UFIP) of Geneva, Switzerland, a
private investment firm and several private European investors working with
UFIP.  The financing agreement between UFIP and the Company was terminated in
January, 1996.  The Company continues to seek funds in the European debt and
equity markets, as well as those within the United States.

     The Company also is currently seeking additional sources of both equity
and debt financing to fund current and future acquisitions.  Each acquisition
is evaluated and judged on its future potential cash flows.  It is the
objective of the Company that each acquisition generate cash flows sufficient
to fund the particular acquisition's operations and its associated debt.

     The Company's independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph
in their report on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and
for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994.  The Company has suffered
recurring losses and has a working capital deficit and a capital deficit which
raise a substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. 
The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its
ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing to fund its operations
and future acquisitions.  In the event the Company is unable to obtain
additional debt or equity financing, the Company most likely will not be able
to sustain operations and will be forced to cease doing business.  See "Report
of Independent Certified Public Accountants."

     The Company currently has 5,000,000 authorized but unissued shares of
preferred stock and nearly 89,000,000 shares of authorized but unissued common
stock.  The Company will continue to pursue opportunities to acquire
properties in exchange for its stock.

            REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


Board of Directors 
Excel Resources, Inc.
Houston, Texas


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Excel
Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and
cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on
a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated  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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position
of Excel Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year
then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 8 to
the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring
losses and has a working capital deficit and a capital deficit which raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. 
Management's plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 8.  The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Excel Resources, Inc.
Houston, Texas

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Excel
Resources, Inc., as of December 31,1994, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity (capital deficit) and cash
flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1994. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company'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 consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Excel
Resources, Inc. at December 31, 1994, and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for the each of the two years in the period ended December 31,
1994 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 8 to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from
operations and has a working capital deficit and a capital deficit. This
situation raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also
described in Note 8. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company changed its method of accounting for
income taxes in 1993.

               Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 
                       December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993

NOTE 1 -      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      a.  Organization

      The Company was originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on
December 31, 1988 under the name of Dover Capital Corporation.  The Company's
primary business activity is the production, gathering, marketing and
transportation of natural gas and related products.

      On July 12, 1993, the Company acquired Excel Texas in a business
combination accounted for as a pooling of interests.  As a result, Excel
Texas, which also engages in the gathering, marketing and transportation of
natural gas and related products, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company through the exchange of 5,100,000 shares of the Company's common stock
for all of the outstanding stock of Excel Texas.  A further 700,000 shares of
the Company's common stock were issued in payment of certain fees incurred in
connection with the combination.

      b.  Accounting Method

      The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method
of accounting. The full cost method of accounting is used for oil and gas
property acquisitions, exploration and production activities as defined by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, whereby all costs incurred in connection
with the properties, productive or nonproductive, are capitalized. 
Capitalized costs related to proved properties and estimated future costs to
be incurred in the development of proved reserves are amortized using the
unit-of-production method.  Capitalized costs are annually subjected to a test
of recoverability by comparison to the present value of future net revenues
from proved reserves.  Any capitalized costs in excess of the present value of
future net revenue from proved reserves, adjusted for the cost of certain
unproved properties, are expensed in the year in which such an excess occurs. 
The Company has elected a calendar year end.

      c.  Loss per Share of Common Stock

      The loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted average
number of shares issued and outstanding at the date of the financial
statements.  

      d.  Provision for Taxes

      Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"), Accounting
for Income Taxes.  The adoption of SFAS 109 changes the Company's method of
accounting for income taxes from the deferred method to the liability method.

      The cumulative effect of this change in accounting for periods prior to
January 1, 1993, decreased the 1993 net loss by $38,816, and is shown
separately in the consolidated statement of operations.

      At December 31, 1995, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards
of approximately $11,800,000 that may be offset against future taxable income
through 2010.  No tax benefit has been reported in the 1995 financial
statements, because the potential tax benefits of the net operating loss
carryforwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

                       December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993

NOTE 1 -      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

      e.  Cash Equivalents

      The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of
three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

      f. Principles of Consolidation

      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company, its wholly-owned subsidiary, Excel Resources, Inc., a Texas
Corporation, ("Excel Texas"), Excel Texas' wholly-owned subsidiaries, Excel
Gas Gathering, Inc., Excel Consulting and Management Company, Inc., Excel
Pipeline, Inc., and Excel Ventures, Inc.  They also include the accounts of
Excel Gas Marketing, Inc., an affiliate of Excel Texas through common
ownership.  All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

      g. Fixed Assets

      Fixed assets are stated at cost.  Depreciation and amortization are
computed using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes and
accelerated methods for income tax purposes.

      The estimated useful lives are as follows:

                                                        Lives     
                              Class                    (Years)      

              Transmission equipment                     22      
              Office furniture and equipment            10-12    
              Transportation equipment                    7      
              Leasehold improvements                      3-5      

      Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and
1993 was $33,708, $107,232 and $49,037, respectively.

      h. Accounts Receivable

      Accounts receivable are shown net of the allowance for doubtful
accounts.  This amount was determined to be $-0- and $65,000 at December 31,
1995 and 1994, respectively.

      During 1994, the Company entered into an agreement to factor accounts
receivable balances to supplement its cash flows.  Under the terms of the
agreement, the Company incurred a fee ranging from 4% to 10% on all accounts
that are factored.  During 1994, the Company incurred factoring fees of
$135,615.  At December 31, 1994 and for the year ended December 31, 1995, no
accounts receivable were factored.

                Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
                       December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993

NOTE 1 -      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

      i. Deferred Revenue

      The Company has long-term throughput contracts with certain customers on
its off shore oil and gas wells.  The contracts contain "take or pay"
provisions whereby the Company is entitled to a minimum throughput.  The
Company recognizes income only on its entitlement sales.  Payment for
surpluses over entitlements are credited to deferred revenues to offset   
future deficiencies.  If the Company's take of production is less than the
entitlement the Company recognizes revenue on its full entitlement and charges
long-term receivables.  At December 31, 1995 and 1994, the Company had
long-term gas balancing receivables of $491,287 and $693,935, respectively,
and offsetting long-term gas balancing payables of $146,849 and $349,578,
respectively.

      j. Revenue Recognition

      Revenues are recognized when the gas products are delivered to
customers.  In the movement of natural gas, it is common for differences to
arise between volumes of gas contracted or nominated, and volumes of gas
actually received or delivered.  These situations are the result of certain
attributes of the natural gas commodity and the industry itself. Consequently,
the credit given to the Company by a pipeline for volumes received from   
producers may be different than volumes actually delivered by a pipeline. 
When all necessary information, such as the final pipeline statement for
receipts and deliveries are available, these differences are resolved by the
Company.

      The Company records imbalances based on amounts received and classifies
the imbalances as adjustments to the trade accounts receivable or trade
accounts payable, as appropriate.

      k. Reclassifications

      Certain 1994 and 1993 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
1995 financial statement presentation.

      l. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

      In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new
statement titled "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets."  This new
standard is effective for years beginning after December 15, 1995 and would
change the Company's method of determining impairment of long-lived assets. 
Although the Company has not performed a detailed analysis of the impact of
this new standard on the Company's financial statements, the Company does    
not believe that adoption of the new standard will have a material effect on
the financial statements.

NOTE 1 -      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

      l. Recently Issued Accounting Standards (Continued)

      In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new
statement titled "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (FAS 123).  The new
statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. 
FAS 123 encourages, but does not require, companies to recognize compensation
expense for grants of stock, stock options, and other equity instruments to
employees based on fair value.  Companies that do not adopt the fair value
accounting rules must disclose the impact of adopting the new method in the
notes to the financial statements.  Transactions in equity instruments with
non-employees for goods or services must be accounted for on the fair value
method.  The Company currently intends to adopt the fair value accounting
prescribed by FAS 123.  However, the Company intends to continue its analysis
of FAS 123 to determine its ultimate effect in the future.

      m. Estimates

      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the     
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 -      PURCHASE OF OIL AND GAS LEASES

      Effective January 1, 1994, the Company acquired working interests in
certain oil and gas properties from three unrelated entities for a total
purchase price of $7,692,027 net of gas imbalance positions.  In order to
complete the acquisition, the Company entered into a purchase note agreement
with a customer (see Note 3).  During the year ended December 31, 1994, the
Company incurred additional costs associated with the acquisition of
$1,050,722. The total costs of $8,742,749 were added to the full cost pool.

      On December 1, 1993, the Company acquired certain oil and gas properties
from an unrelated entity for a purchase price of $830,000, comprising 100,000
shares of the Company's common stock, a note payable of $180,000 and cash of
$50,000. According to the original agreement, if after two years, the 100,000
shares of common stock did not have a value of $600,000 the Company would be
required to issue additional shares or pay cash for the amount of the   
shortfall.  At December 31, 1995 the common stock had a value of approximately
$50,000. Management of the Company is currently trying to negotiate the
shortfall amount but as of the date of this audit report, an agreed upon
amount had not yet been determined.  If an additional amount is determined to
be owing, the liability will be recorded with a corresponding increase in the
cost of the oil and gas properties.

      The purchased properties include fourteen off shore wells in Louisiana
and Texas, subject to operating agreements with third party operators.  Under
the agreement, the seller will be responsible to pay up to $125,000 if one
specific offshore well is plugged and abandoned before December 1, 1996.

NOTE 5 -  MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND SUPPLIERS

    83% of the total sales in 1995 were related to sales of Company owned
production to one customer who in turn sold to various other parties. 
Purchases of all third party production were from one major supplier during
1995.

    The Company had sales to two customers representing 42% and 13% of sales
in 1994 and 26% and 11% in 1993.  The Company had purchases from two companies
representing in the aggregate, 27% and 23% of the Company's cost of sales
during 1994 and 1993, respectively.

NOTE 7 -  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    The Company leases office space and certain equipment under operating
lease agreements.  At December 31, 1995, the estimated future minimum rental
payments required under the leases were:

      Year ending December 31,                          Amount   
      1996                                              $  73,000 
      1997                                                 78,000 
      1998                                                 78,000 
      1999                                                 78,000

      Thereafter                                           -      

          Total                                        $  311,000 

    Rental expense for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993, were
approximately $153,000, $156,000 and $129,000, respectively.

    The Company has a number of outstanding claims against it, alleging breach
of contract due to non-payment for natural gas purchased.  Most of these
claims have been the subject of litigation.  Settlement agreements and agreed
judgements have been reached on most claims.

                Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
                       December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993

NOTE 7 -  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)

    Management believes that the outcome of such litigation will not have a
material adverse effect upon the Company since all claims, excluding legal
fees which the Company believe will be immaterial in amount, are fully accrued
for in the financial statements. The Company is currently attempting to obtain
financing to enable it to pay all of the outstanding claims.

    The Company, as a working interest owner in offshore gas wells, is
required to pay a percentage of the production revenues (royalty payments) to
the mineral management service and overriding royalty owners.  Included in
accrued expenses at December 31, 1995 and 1994 are accrued royalties of
$262,205 and $486,738, respectively.

NOTE 8 -  GOING CONCERN

    The Company incurred a net loss for the year ended December 31, 1995 of
$5,350,250 resulting in a capital deficit at December 31, 1995 of $6,773,007. 
The Company has also had difficulties in meeting its current obligations, and
at December 31, 1995, its current liabilities exceeded its current assets by
$12,166,808.  Several unsatisfied judgements stemming from lawsuits alleging
breach of contract for non-payment of certain debts are outstanding against   
the Company.  In order for it to be able to continue as a going concern,
it will be necessary for the Company to obtain sufficient financing to meet
its current obligations and ultimately to achieve profitable operations.  The
Company was able to raise approximately $3,600,000 during 1995 through sales
of its common stock shares but a substantial amount is still needed in order
for the Company to continue as a going concern.  The Company is continuing to
explore other financing alternatives.

    Due to the significant losses and cash flow problems incurred by the
Company during 1995 and 1994, the Company has significantly reduced its
operations.  The Company factored certain receivables during 1994. 
Additionally, in 1995 and 1994, the Company negotiated deferred payment terms
on several of its trade payables during 1995 and 1994, pending the outcome of
the Company's financing efforts, which have provided a temporary measure of
relief for the Company's cash flow problems.

NOTE 9 -  BUSINESS COMBINATION

    As mentioned in Note 1, On July 12, 1993, the Company acquired Excel Texas
in a business combination accounted for as a pooling of interests.  The
accompanying financial statements for 1993 are based on the assumption that
the companies were combined for the full year.

    (4)                  Reserve Quantity Information

    The following schedule presents estimates of proved oil and natural gas
reserves attributable to the Company, all of which are located offshore from
the continental United States.  Proved reserves are estimated quantities of
oil and natural gas which geological and engineering data demonstrate with
reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs
under existing economic and operating conditions.  Proved - developed
reserves are those which are expected to be recovered through existing wells
with existing equipment and operating methods.  Reserves are stated in barrels
of oil (Bbls) and millions of cubic feet of natural gas (Mmcf).  Geological
and engineering estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves at one point
in time are highly interpretive, inherently imprecise and subject to ongoing
revisions that may be substantial in amount.  Although every reasonable effort
is made to ensure that the reserve estimates reported represent the most
accurate assessments possible, these estimates are by their nature generally
less precise that other estimates presented in connection with financial
statement disclosures.

    The following schedule presents the standardized measure of estimated
discounted future net cash flows from the Company's proved reserves for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993.  Estimated future cash flows
were based on independent reserve data. Because of the standardized measure of
future net cash flows was prepared using the prevailing economic conditions
existing at December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, it should be emphasized that
such conditions continually change.  Accordingly, such information should
not serve as a basis in making any judgment on the potential value of the
Company's recoverable reserves or in estimating future results to operations.
