NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Kaneb Pipe Line
     Partners, L.P. and its subsidiaries (the "Partnership") for the periods
     ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 have been prepared in accordance with
     generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.
     Significant accounting policies followed by the Partnership were disclosed
     in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the
     Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31,
     1996. In the opinion of the Partnership's management, the accompanying
     consolidated financial statements contain the adjustments, consisting of
     normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the consolidated
     financial position of the Partnership at March 31, 1997 and the
     consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for the period ended
     March 31, 1997 and 1996. Operating results for the three months ended
     March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
     expected for the year ending December 31, 1997.

2.   CASH DISTRIBUTIONS TO UNITHOLDERS

     The cash distribution of $.60 per Unit for the fourth quarter of 1996 was
     made on February 14, 1997. A cash distribution of $.60 for the first
     quarter of 1997 was declared to holders of record as of April 30, 1997 and
     is payable on May 15, 1997.

     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
     OPERATIONS

     FINANCIAL CONDITION

     During the first three months of 1997, the Partnership's working capital
     requirements for operations, capital expenditures and cash distributions
     were funded through the use of internally generated funds.

     Cash provided by operations was $13.7 million and $11.1 million for the
     periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Capital expenditures
     were $1.9 million in the 1997 period compared to $2.1 million in 1996. The
     Partnership anticipates that capital expenditures will total approximately
     $8.0 to $10.0 million (excluding any further acquisitions) for the year
     1997.

     The Partnership intends to fund future cash distributions and maintenance
     capital expenditures with cash and cash flows from operating activities.
     Expansionary capital expenditures are expected to be funded through
     additional Partnership borrowing.

     The Partnership makes distributions of 100% of its available cash to
     Unitholders and the General Partner. Available cash consists generally of
     all the cash receipts less all cash disbursements and reserves.
     Distributions of $.60 per unit were declared to all Unitholders in the
     first quarter of 1997 and $2.30 per unit was declared in the calendar year
     1996.

     Additional information relative to sources and uses of cash is presented
     in the financial statements included in this report.

</TABLE>


     For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, revenues decreased 4% primarily due
     to the adverse effect on product demand caused by abnormally high amounts
     of snow and rainfall in the northern Midwest. Operating income increased
     2% as operating cost reductions more than offset the revenue decline.

</TABLE>

     For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, operating income increased 6% over
     the same period in 1996, primarily as a result of the acquisition of two
     terminaling facilities acquired in the fourth quarter of 1996 in addition
     to an increase in the profitability of terminals acquired in December
     1995.
