Item 1.      Description of Business


General

     Enex Oil & Gas  Income  Program  IV - Series 4, L.P.  (the  "Company")  was
formed under the New Jersey Uniform Limited  Partnership Act (1976) on March 15,
1988 and commenced operations on August 15, 1989 with aggregate subscriptions of
$1,260,210,  $1,247,608  of  which  was  received  from  599  limited  partners,
including investors whose distributions from earlier  partnerships  sponsored by
the  Company's  general  partner,  Enex  Resources  Corporation  ("Enex"),  were
automatically invested in the Company.

   
     The Company is engaged in the oil and gas business through the ownership of
various  interests in producing oil and gas  properties,  as detailed in Item 2,
below. If warranted, the Company may further develop its oil and gas properties.
However,  the  Company  does  not  intend  to  engage  in  significant  drilling
activities. Such activities may be conducted,  however, as an incidental part of
the management of producing properties or with a view toward enhancing the value
of  producing  properties.  In no event will the Company  engage in  exploratory
drilling, or use any of the limited partners' net revenues to fund
exploratory  drilling  activities.  Any developmental  drilling will be financed
primarily  through third party borrowing or with funds provided from operations.
The expenses of drilling,  completing  and equipping  and operating  development
wells are allocated 90% to the limited  partners and 10% to the general partner.
See  Note  1 to  the  Financial  Statements  for  information  relating  to  the
allocation  of costs and revenues  between the limited  partners and the general
partner. The Company's operations are concentrated in a single industry segment.

     The Company owns royalty  interests  in certain oil and gas  properties.  A
"royalty  interest"  is an  interest  retained  by the  lessor  in the lease and
payable  out of 100% of  proceeds  before  deducting  any other  interests.  The
Company  also owns  working  interests  in  certain  oil and gas  properties.  A
"working  interest" is a portion of the operating  interest  which is subject to
most of the costs associated with a well.
    

     The principal executive office of the Company is maintained at 800 Rockmead
Drive,  Suite 200, Three Kingwood Place,  Kingwood,  Texas 77339.  The telephone
number at this office is (713) 358- 8401. The Company has no regional offices.

     The Company has no employees.  On March 1, 1996, Enex and its  subsidiaries
employed 24 persons.

Marketing

     The  marketing  of oil and gas  produced  by the  Company is  affected by a
number of factors  which are beyond the Company's  control,  the exact nature of
which cannot be accurately  predicted.  These  factors  include the quantity and
price of crude oil imports,  fluctuating  supply and demand,  pipeline and other
transportation facilities, the marketing of competitive fuels, state and federal
regulation  of oil  and  gas  production  and  distribution  and  other  matters
affecting the availability of a ready market. All of these factors are extremely
volatile.

                                      I-1

<PAGE>


     Total Petroleum,  Inc., Amoco Production  Company and Don Yohe Enterprises,
Inc. accounted for 18%, 15% and 14%, respectively,  of the Company's total sales
in 1995.  Norcen  Explorer,  Inc.,  Total  Petroleum,  Inc. and Amoco Production
Company  accounted for 22%, 20% and 12%,  respectively,  of the Company's  total
sales in 1994. No other  purchaser  individually  accounted for more than 10% of
such sales.  Although the Company marketed a significant portion of its sales to
the above noted companies, such a concentration does not pose a significant risk
due to the commodity nature of the Company's products.

   
     The  operators  of the  Company's  properties  are  noted  in Item 2 below.
Although a significant  portion of the Company's  properties  were operated by a
limited number of operators, this concentration does not pose a significant risk
since the Company's rights are secured by joint operating agreements.
    

Environmental and Conservation Regulation

     State  regulatory  authorities  in the  states  in which the  Company  owns
producing  properties  are empowered to make and enforce  regulations to prevent
waste of oil and gas and to  protect  correlative  rights and  opportunities  to
produce oil and gas for owners of a common  reservoir.  Each of such  regulatory
authorities  also  regulates  the amount of oil and gas  produced  by  assigning
allowable rates of production, which may be increased or decreased in accordance
with supply and demand.  Requirements  regarding the  prevention and clean-up of
pollution and similar environmental  matters are also generally applicable.  The
costs, if any, the Company may incur in this regard cannot be predicted.

     The existence of such  regulations  has had no material  adverse effects on
the Company's  operations to date,  and the cost of compliance  has not yet been
material.  There are no material  administrative or judicial proceedings arising
under such laws or  regulations  pending  against  the  Company.  The Company is
unable to assess or predict the impact that  compliance with  environmental  and
pollution  control  laws  and  regulations  may have on its  future  operations,
capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.


Tax Laws

     The  operations of the Company are affected by the federal  income tax laws
contained in the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").  Under
the Code,  generally,  the Company  will report  income from the sale of oil and
gas,  against  which it may deduct its ordinary  business  expenses,  depletion,
depreciation and intangible drilling and development costs.

     It is anticipated that most of the Company's income, if any, will be from a
"passive  activity"  for  purposes of the Code. A passive  activity  includes an
activity in which the taxpayer does not  materially  participate,  including the
ownership of a limited partnership interest, such as an interest in the Company.
"Passive  income," however,  does not include portfolio income (i.e.  dividends,
interest,  royalties,  etc.). Although taxpayers generally may not deduct losses
or use tax credits  derived from passive  activities  in an amount  greater than
their income derived from such activities, if and to the extent that the Company
generates  passive income,  it will be available to offset the limited partners'
passive losses from other sources.

     Partnerships  with  interests  that  are  "publicly  traded"  are  taxed as
corporations unless at least 90% of their income is "qualifying income." Because
the Company's income will be qualifying income

Item 6.          Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation


Results of Operations

     This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
of the Company and the notes thereto included in this Form 10-KSB.

     Oil, gas and plant product sales decreased to $94,299 in 1995 from $109,257
in 1994. This represents a decrease of $14,958 or 14%. Oil revenues decreased by
$2,174 or 3%. A 6%  decrease in oil  production  reduced  sales by $4,089.  This
increase was  partially  offset by a 3% increase in the average oil sales price.
Gas sales decreased by $15,024 or 43%. A 38% decrease in gas production  reduced
sales by $13,400.  A 7% decrease in the average gas sales price reduced sales by
an additional  $1,602.  Plant  product  sales  increased by $2,240 or 73%. A 90%
increase in the production of plant  products  increased  sales by $2,765.  This
increase was  partially  offset by a 9% decrease in the average  plant  products
sales price.  The decrease in oil production was primarily the result of natural
production  declines.  The decrease in gas  production  was  primarily  due to a
production  surge  in the  first  half of 1994  resulting  from  the  successful
recompletion  of a well in the Lake  Decade  acquisition.  The  increase  in the
production of plant products was due to the receipt of revenues  attributable to
prior  years  from the  Kalkaska  gas  plant.  The  changes  in  average  prices
correspond with changes in the overall market for the sale of oil, gas and plant
products.

     Lease operating expenses remained virtually unchanged at $25,943 in 1995 as
compared  to $25,983  in 1994.  The  decrease  of $40 was  primarily  due to the
changes in production, noted above.

     Depreciation  and  depletion  expense  decreased  to  $39,101  in 1995 from
$68,932 in 1994.  This  represents  a decrease of $29,831 or 43%. The changes in
production,  noted above reduced depreciation and depletion expense by $8,183. A
36% decrease in the depletion rate reduced depreciation and depletion expense by
an additional $21,648. The rate decrease was primarily due to an upward revision
of the oil and gas reserves during 1995.

     General  and  administrative  expenses  decreased  to  $23,545 in 1995 from
$27,991 in 1994.  This  decrease of $4,446 or 16% is primarily due to less staff
time being required to manage the Company's  operations in 1995,  coupled with a
$1,197 decrease in direct costs incurred by the Company.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

   
     The Company's cash flow from operations is a direct result of the amount of
the net proceeds realized from the sale of oil and gas production.  Accordingly,
the changes in cash flows from 1994 to 1995 are  primarily due to the changes in
oil and gas sales  described  above.  It is the general  partner's  intention to
distribute  substantially  all of the  Company's  available  cash  flows  to the
Company's partners.  The Company's "available cash flow" is essentially equal to
the net amount of cash provided by operating activities.
    

     The Company will  continue to recover its reserves  and  distribute  to the
partners the net proceeds realized from the sale of oil and gas production after
payment of debt  obligations.  The Company plans to repay the amount owed to the
general  partner  from such  proceeds  over a three year  period.  Distributions
decreased from 1994 to 1995 due to the lower revenues received in 1995, as noted
above. Distribution amounts are subject to change if net revenues are greater or
less than expected.  Nonetheless,  the general partner believes the Company will
continue  to have  sufficient  cash flow to fund  operations  and to  maintain a
regular pattern of distributions.

sales  proceeds,  he,  therefore,  had a  pecuniary interest in, and was a
beneficial owner of, the shares in question.

     In response to the SEC's action, Mr. Carl disgorged to Health Images,  Inc.
approximately  $92,400 in  short-swing  profits from the trading in his mother's
account,  plus  interest  thereon  of  approximately  $52,600.  The SEC  further
requested the court to impose a $10,000 civil penalty  against Mr. Carl pursuant
to Section  21(d)(3)  of the  Exchange  Act.  Without  admitting  or denying the
allegations  in the  complaint,  Mr.  Carl  consented  to the  entry  of a final
judgement  imposing the $10,000  penalty.  On January 12, 1996, a federal  judge
entered the final judgement in this matter, and Mr. Carl has since filed amended
reports on Forms 4 and 5 reflecting these transactions in his mother's accounts.

     In relation to the same matter, the SEC has issued an administrative  Order
pursuant to Section 21C of the Exchange  Act against Mr.  Carl,  finding that he
violated  Section 16(a) and the rules  thereunder and requiring him to cease and
desist from  committing  or causing any  violation or future  violation of those
provisions. Without admitting or denying allegations in the SEC's Order, Mr.
Carl consented to the entry of the Order.

Item 10.   Executive Compensation

     The Company has no Directors or executive officers.

     The Company does not pay a proportional or fixed share of the  compensation
paid to the officers of the General Partner.

   
     The  Company   reimburses   the  General   Partner  for  direct  costs  and
administrative  costs incurred on its behalf.  Administrative costs allocated to
the Company are computed on a cost basis in accordance  with  standard  industry
practices by allocating the time spent by the General Partner's  personnel among
all  projects  and by  allocating  rent and other  overhead  on the basis of the
relative direct time charges.  The Company  incurred $27,335 and $34,009 of such
administrative   costs  payable  to  the  General  Partner  in  1995  and  1994,
respectively.
