Note to Financial Statements
Subsequent Events
The Partnership, subsequent to September 30, 1998 sold its interest in a
portion of non-operated oil and gas properties. The Partnership's
interests in the wells were sold for $95,201 net proceeds, after post
closing adjustments. The proceeds from the sale represented 8.70% of the
Partnership's total assets at December 31, 1997.
<PAGE>
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 does not anticipate performing
workovers during the next year. The Partnership could possibly experience
a slow decline.
Oil and Gas Properties
Oil and gas properties are accounted for at cost under the full-cost
method. Under this method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred
in connection with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and
gas reserves are capitalized. Gain or loss on the sale of oil and gas
properties is not recognized unless significant oil and gas reserves are
involved.
The Partnership's policy for depreciation, depletion and amortization of
oil and gas properties is computed under the units of revenue method.
Under the units of revenue method, depreciation, depletion and amortization
is computed on the basis of current gross revenues from production in
relation to future gross revenues, based on current prices, from estimated
production of proved oil and gas reserves.
Should the net capitalized costs exceed the estimated present value of oil
and gas reserves, discounted at 10%, such excess costs would be charged to
current expense. For the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the net
capitalized cost did not exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas
reserves. A continuation of the oil price environment experienced during
the first three quarters of 1998 will have an adverse affect on the
Company's revenues and operating cash flow. Also, further declines in oil
prices could result in additional decreases in the carrying value of the
Company's oil and gas properties.

Results of Operations
A. General Comparison of the Quarters Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997:
Three Months
Ended Percentage
September 30, Increase
1998 1997 (Decrease)
---- ---- ---------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 11.39 17.79 (36%)
Average price per mcf of gas $ 2.06 1.99 4%
Oil production in barrels 8,800 13,000 (32%)
Gas production in mcf 19,500 30,900 (37%)
Income from net profits interests $(53,172) 87,214 (161%)
Partnership distributions $ - 78,000 (100%)
Limited partner distributions $ - 70,200 (100%)
Per unit distribution to limited partners $ - 6.28 (100%)
Number of limited partner units 11,181 11,181
Revenues
The Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased to $(53,172)
from $87,214 for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, a decrease of 161%. The principal factors affecting the
comparison of the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are as
follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
decreased during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to
the quarter ended September 30, 1997 by 36%, or $6.40 per barrel,
resulting in a decrease of approximately $83,200 in income from net
profits interests. Oil sales represented 71% of total oil and gas
sales during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to 79%
during the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 4%, or $.07 per mcf, resulting in
an increase of approximately $2,200 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
$81,000. 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.
<PAGE>
2. Oil production decreased approximately 4,200 barrels or 32% during the
quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended
September 30, 1997, resulting in a decrease of approximately $47,800 in
income from net profits interests.
Gas production decreased approximately 11,400 mcf or 37% during the
same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $23,500 in income
from net profits interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in production is approximately $71,300. The decrease in
production is due largely to property sales.
3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 6% lower, or
approximately $12,000 less during the quarter ended September 30, 1998
as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses decreased to $24,812 from $45,924 for the quarters
ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, a decrease of 46%. The
decrease is 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
22% or approximately $3,900 during the quarter ended September 30, 1998
as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The increase in
general and administrative costs are due largely to higher accounting
fees. The 10-Q's are now required to be reviewed based on new
accounting pronouncements.
2. Depletion expense decreased to $3,000 for the quarter ended September
30, 1998 from $28,000 for the same period in 1997. This represents a
decrease of 89%. 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 decrease in the price of oil and the decline in gross
oil and gas revenues.
<PAGE>
B. General Comparison of the Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 1998
and 1997
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997:
Nine Months
Ended Percentage
September 30, Increase
1998 1997 (Decrease)
---- ---- ---------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 12.36 19.07 (35%)
Average price per mcf of gas $ 1.85 2.16 (14%)
Oil production in barrels 31,600 39,700 (20%)
Gas production in mcf 71,500 90,200 (21%)
Income from net profits interests $(31,967) 375,041 (109%)
Partnership distributions $ 125,021 492,058 (75%)
Limited partner distributions $ 114,121 446,458 (75%)
Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 10.21 39.93 (75%)
Number of limited partner units 11,181 11,181
Revenues
The Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased to $(31,967)
from $375,041 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, a decrease of 109%. The principal factors affecting the
comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are as
follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 1997 by 35%, or $6.71 per
barrel, resulting in a decrease of approximately $266,400 in income
from net profits interests. Oil sales represented 75% of total oil and
gas sales during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 80%
during the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
decreased during the same period by 14%, or $.31 per mcf, resulting in
a decrease of approximately $28,000 in income from net profits
interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately
$294,400. 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.
<PAGE>
2. Oil production decreased approximately 8,100 barrels or 20% during the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, resulting in a decrease of approximately
$100,100 in income from net profits interests.
Gas production decreased approximately 18,700 mcf or 21% during the
same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $34,600 in income
from net profits interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in production is approximately $134,700. The decrease is
primarily a result of property sales . 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 4% lower, or
approximately $21,900 less during the nine months ended September 30, 1998
as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses increased to $223,346 from $151,656 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, an increase of 47%.
The increase is the result of higher 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 increased 14% or
approximately $8,600 during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The increase in
general and administrative costs are due largely to higher accounting fees.
The 10-Q's are now required to be reviewed based on new accounting
pronouncements
2. Depletion expense increased to $101,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 from $89,000 for the same period in 1997. This
represents an increase of 13%. 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 increase in depletion expense between the
comparative periods were the decrease in the price of oil used to
determine the Partnership's reserves for October 1, 1998 as compared to
January 1, 1997 and the decline in gross oil and gas revenues. The
decrease in price has also dropped the basis of the reserves because of
the negative economics on some wells.
3. The net capitalized costs for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
exceeded the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves,
discounted at 10% in the amount of $51,105, such excess costs were
charged to current expense. The write-down had the effect of reducing
net income, but did not affect cash flow or partner distributions
<PAGE>
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 $92,000 in
the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to approximately
$387,100 in the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The primary source
of the 1998 cash flow from operating activities was profitable operations.
Cash flows provided by investing activities were approximately $64,400 in
the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to approximately
$100,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The principle source
of the 1998 cash flow from investing activities was the change in oil and
gas properties.
Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $125,000 in the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to approximately $492,000
in the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The only use in financing
activities was the distributions to partners.
Total distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 were
$125,021 of which $114,121 was distributed to the limited partners and
$10,900 to the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited
partners during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $10.21. Total
distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 were $492,058
of which $446,458 was distributed to the limited partners and $45,600 to
the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners during
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $39.93.
The sources for the 1998 distributions of $125,021 were oil and gas
operations of approximately $92,000 and the sale of oil and gas properties
of approximately $64,400. The sources for the 1997 distributions of
$492,058 were oil and gas operations of approximately $387,100 and a change
in oil and gas property of approximately 100,000, with the balance from
available cash on hand at the beginning of the period.
Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash distributions
of $4,599,050 have been made to the partners. As of September 30, 1998,
$4,188,037 or $374.57 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the
limited partners, representing a 75% return of the capital contributed.
As of September 30, 1998, the Partnership had approximately $102,400 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.
<PAGE>
Information Systems for the Year 2000
The Partnership relies on the Managing General Partner for their data
processing requirements. This includes use of a program designed and
implemented by Midland Southwest Software, the Managing General Partner's
software subsidiary. Midland Southwest Software currently has a year 2000
plan in effect. They have surveyed existing programs and hardware and
estimate a compliance date of early 1999. Determination of the total cost
in connection with the year 2000 compliance issue is difficult to determine
due to the fact that they are in the process of developing their new 1998
version of marketed oil and gas software, which has, from inception,
included year 2000 compliance. Third party software programs utilized by
the Managing General Partner are either in compliance or are not affected
by the year 2000, with the exception of the payroll service, which is
currently modifying its system to accurately handle the Year 2000 issue.
The Managing General Partner has not completed its evaluation of its
vendors or suppliers systems to determine the effect, if any, the non-
compliance of such systems would have on the operations of the Managing
General Partner. Plans are under way to perform an audit in late 1998 or
early 1999 to determine the effect of non-compliance of its vendors and
suppliers on the Managing General Partner and thus formulate a contingency
plan.
A potential source of risk includes, but is not limited to, the inability
of principal purchasers and suppliers to be year 2000 compliant, which
could have a material effect on the Managing General Partner's production,
cash flow and overall financial condition, notwithstanding the Managing
General Partner's actions to prepare its own information systems. The
Managing General Partner currently does not have a contingency plan in
place to cover any unforeseen problems encountered that relate to the year
2000, but intends to produce one before the end of the fiscal year.
