Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations

General

Southwest Royalties Institutional Income Fund X-B, L.P. was organized as a
Delaware limited partnership on November 27, 1990. The offering of such
limited partnership interests began December 1, 1990 as part of a shelf
offering registered under the name Southwest Royalties Institutional 1990-91
Income Program.  Minimum capital requirements for the Partnership were met on
March 11, 1991, with the offering of limited partnership interests concluding
September 30, 1991, with total limited partner contributions of $5,590,500.

The Partnership was formed to acquire royalty and net profits interests in
producing oil and gas properties, to produce and market crude oil and natural
gas produced from such properties, and to distribute the net proceeds from
operations to the limited and general partners.  Net revenues from producing
oil and gas properties will not be reinvested in other revenue producing
assets except to the extent that production facilities and wells are improved
or reworked or where methods are employed to improve or enable more efficient
recovery of oil and gas reserves.

Increases or decreases in Partnership revenues and, therefore, distributions
to partners will depend primarily on changes in the prices received for
production, changes in volumes of production sold, lease operating expenses,
enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities pursuant to farmout
arrangements, sales of properties, and the depletion of wells.  Since wells
deplete over time, production can generally be expected to decline from year
to year.

Well operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease
with production declines; however, these costs may not decrease
proportionately.  Net income available for distribution to the partners is
therefore expected to fluctuate in later years based on these factors.

Based on current conditions, management anticipates performing workovers
during the next few years to enhance production.  The Partnership could
possibly experience the following changes; a slight increase in 1997, another
increase in 1998 and 1999, leveling off in 2000 and beginning a decline in
2001.

Revenues

The Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased to $109,405
from $132,447 for the quarters ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, a
decrease of 17%.  The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
quarters ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 are as follows:

1.  The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
    decreased during the quarter ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the
    quarter ended June 30, 1996 by 15%, or $3.20 per barrel, resulting in a
    decrease of approximately $47,700 in income from net profits interests. 
    Oil sales represented 78% of total oil and gas sales during the quarter
    ended June 30, 1997 as compared to 81% during the quarter ended June 30,
    1996.

    The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership increased
    during the same period by 3%, or $.07 per mcf, resulting in an increase
    of approximately $2,500 in income from net profits interests.  

    The net total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
    change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately
    $45,200.  The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile
    over the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of
    volatility to continue in the foreseeable future.

2.  Oil production decreased approximately 1,700 barrels or 11% during the
    quarter ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the quarter ended June 30,
    1996, resulting in a decrease of approximately $29,700 in income from net
    profits interests.

    Gas production decreased approximately 5,400 mcf or 15% during the same
    period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $11,600 in income from
    net profits interests.

    The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the change
    in production is approximately $41,300.  The decrease is primarily a
    result of property sales during 1996 and the loss of gas production on
    one well.  Also contributing to the production decline is the natural
    decline of oil and gas production.  Since the Partnership does not drill
    or purchase oil and gas properties, it is normal to expect production to
    continue to decline over the remaining life of the wells.

3.  Lease operating costs and production taxes were 25% lower, or
    approximately $62,600 less during the quarter ended June 30, 1997 as
    compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1996.  The decrease is primarily
    a result of workover costs incurred in 1996 as compared to 1997.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses decreased to $45,758 from $64,981 for the quarters
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, a decrease of 30%.  The decrease
is primarily the result of lower depletion expense, partially offset by an
increase in general and administrative expense.

1.  General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
    engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
    Partner personnel costs.  General and administrative costs increased 4%
    or approximately $800 during the quarter ended June 30, 1997 as compared
    to the quarter ended June 30, 1996.  

2.  Depletion expense decreased to $27,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
    1997 from $47,000 for the same period in 1996.  This represents a
    decrease of 43%.  Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue
    method of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross
    revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the
    Partnership's independent petroleum consultants.  Contributing factors to
    the decline in depletion expense between the comparative periods were the
    increase in the price of oil and gas used to determine the Partnership's
    reserves for January 1, 1997 as compared to 1996, property sales and the
    decline in oil and gas revenues.

Revenues

The Partnership's income from net profits interests increased to $287,826
from $280,938 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively,
an increase of 2%.  The principal factors affecting the comparison of the six
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 are as follows:

1.  The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
    increased during the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the
    six months ended June 30, 1996 by 2%, or $.38 per barrel, resulting in an
    increase of approximately $11,600 in income from net profits interests. 
    Oil sales represented 80% of total oil and gas sales during the six
    months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.

    The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership increased
    during the same period by 11%, or $.22 per mcf, resulting in an increase
    of approximately $15,700 in income from net profits interests.  

    The total increase in income from net profits interests due to the change
    in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately $27,300. 
    The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the
    past decade, and management expects a certain amount of volatility to
    continue in the foreseeable future.

2.  Oil production decreased approximately 3,800 barrels or 12% during the
    six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the six months ended June
    30, 1996, resulting in a decrease of approximately $74,800 in income from
    net profits interests.

    Gas production decreased approximately 11,900 mcf or 17% during the same
    period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $26,800 in income from
    net profits interests.

    The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the change
    in production is approximately $101,600.  The decrease is primarily a
    result of property sales during 1996 and the loss of gas production on
    one well.  Also contributing to the production decline is the natural
    decline of oil and gas production.  Since the Partnership does not drill
    or purchase oil and gas properties, it is normal to expect production to
    continue to decline over the remaining life of the wells.

3.  Lease operating costs and production taxes were 18% lower, or
    approximately $81,700 less during the six months ended June 30, 1997 as
    compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996.  The decrease is
    primarily a result of workover costs incurred in 1996 as compared to
    1997.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses decreased to $105,732 from $137,928 for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, a decrease of 23%.  The
decrease is primarily the result of a decrease in general and administrative
expense and depletion expense.

1.  General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
    engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
    Partner personnel costs.  General and administrative costs decreased 1%
    or approximately $200 during the six months ended June 30, 1997 as
    compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996.

2.  Depletion expense decreased to $61,000 for the six months ended June 30,
    1997 from $91,000 for the same period in 1996.  This represents a
    decrease of 33%.  Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue
    method of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross
    revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the
    Partnership's independent petroleum consultants.  Contributing factors to
    the decline in depletion expense between the comparative periods were the
    increase in the price of oil and gas used to determine the Partnership's
    reserves for January 1, 1997 as compared to 1996, property sales and the
    decline in oil and gas revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The primary source of cash is from operations, the receipt of income from
interests in oil and gas properties.  The Partnership knows of no material
change, nor does it anticipate any such change.

Cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $309,300 in
the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to approximately $225,000 in
the six months ended June 30, 1996.  The primary source of the 1997 cash flow
from operating activities was profitable operations.

Cash flows provided by investing activities were $100,000 in the six months
ended June 30, 1997 as compared to  approximately $124,600 in the six months
ended June 30, 1996.  The principle source of the 1997 cash flow from
investing activities was the sale of oil and gas properties.

Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $414,000 in the
six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to approximately $522,500 in the
six months ended June 30, 1996.  The only use in financing activities was the
distributions to partners.

Total distributions during the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $414,058
of which $376,258 was distributed to the limited partners and $37,800 to the
general partners.  The per unit distribution to limited partners during the
six months ended June 30, 1997 was $33.65.  Total distributions during the
six months ended June 30, 1996 were $522,613 of which $477,613 was
distributed to the limited partners and $45,000 to the general partners.  The
per unit distribution to limited partners during the six months ended June
30, 1996 was $42.72.  

The sources for the 1997 distributions of $414,058 were oil and gas
operations of approximately $309,300 and sale of oil and gas properties of
$100,000, with the balance from available cash on hand at the beginning of
the period.  The sources for the 1996 distributions of $522,613 were oil and
gas operations of approximately $225,000 and sale of oil and gas properties
of approximately $124,600, with the balance from available cash on hand at
the beginning of the period.

Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash distributions of
$4,281,029 have been made to the partners.  As of June 30, 1997, $3,900,216
or $348.83 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the limited
partners, representing a 70% return of the capital contributed.

As of June 30, 1997, the Partnership had approximately $84,700 in working
capital.  The Managing General Partner knows of no unusual contractual
commitments and believes the revenues generated from operations are adequate
to meet the needs of the Partnership.
