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

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Revenue.  Revenue was approximately $141.4 million and $372.9 million for the
third quarter and first nine months of 1997, respectively, representing
increases of $46.7 million (49%) and $136.6 million (58%) from the same periods
of 1996, respectively.  The increases were primarily due to seven 1996
acquisitions and seven 1997 acquisitions, as well as increased activity levels
in several of the Company's markets.  The most significant acquisition was the
merger with D.O.S. Ltd. ("Drexel") which was completed effective as of April 1,
1996, (the "Drexel Merger").  Oil and gas drilling and production activity
increased significantly in the first nine months of 1997 compared to 1996 as
evidenced by increases in the U.S. rig activity (22.3% increase), U.S. workover
activity (7.5% increase),  Canada rig activity (37.4% increase), and
international rig activity (2.1% increase).  On a pro forma basis for the
effects of the Drexel Merger, revenue was up $101 million (37%) in the first
nine months of 1997 compared to the same pro forma period in 1996.

Revenue from the Company's Tubular Services, comprised of Inspection, Coating,
and Mill Systems and Sales was approximately $60.2 million and $158.6 million
for the three and nine months ending September 30, 1997, respectively.  These
results represented increases of $17.7 million (42%) and $29.5 million (23%)
over the prior year periods, respectively.  The increases in Tubular Services
revenue was mainly due to significant increases in North America and European
Coating operations and the acquisition of FGS (manufacturer of premium
fiberglass tubulars) which was acquired on March 7, 1997.  The fiberglass
manufacturing operation has increased its capacity since the acquisition due to
the expansion of a second manufacturing  plant.  Inspection revenue was also up
significantly in the third quarter of 1997 over 1996 due to the third quarter
1997 acquisition of Gator Hawk and Cut-Rite and stronger activity in the U.S.
market.  In addition, the Company's international inspection activity was also
up in Europe, Latin America, and the Far East.

The Drexel Merger added the rental and sale of Solids Control equipment to the
Company's operations.  In addition, the Company completed the acquisition of
four Solids Control related businesses in 1996 and three in the third quarter of
1997.  Solids Control operations, which includes the rental and sale of
equipment used in the removal of rock cuttings and other solid contaminants from
the mud used in drilling operations, had  revenue of $40.3 million and $107.6
million in the third quarter and first nine months of 1997, respectively.  On a
pro forma basis for the Drexel Merger, Solids Control revenue was up $38.6
million (56%) for the first nine months of 1997 compared to the same period of
1996.  Third quarter revenue was up $14.8 million (58%) over the same period of
1996.  The increase in third quarter and pro forma first nine months of 1997
revenue was due to the acquisitions and increased drilling activity in Canada
and the U.S. gulf coast which resulted in an increase in rental revenue.  Rental
revenue also increased due to improved Latin America operations.  In addition,
solids control equipment sales were up due to increased demand related to the
higher activity levels.

Coiled Tubing and Pressure Control Products, which were also acquired as part of
the Drexel Merger, contributed revenue of  $24.4 million and $61.8 million in
the third quarter and first nine months of 1997.  During September 1996, the
Company enhanced its Coiled Tubing and Pressure Control Products operations
through the purchase of S.S.R. (International) Ltd. and Pressure Control
Engineering ("SSR/PCE").    Coiled Tubing and Pressure Control Products include
the sale of coiled tubing units, wire line units, downhole tools and blowout
preventors used in oilfield workover, drilling and production operations.  On a
pro forma basis for the Drexel Merger, Coiled Tubing and Pressure Control
Products revenue was up $16.5 million (36%) in the first nine months of 1997 due
to the acquisition of SSR/PCE and an increase in coiled tubing unit sales from
the Company's Hydra Rig operation.   Third quarter revenue was up $9.4 million
(62%) over the same period of 1996.   An increase in the Company's Hydra Rig
operation led the third quarter increase, especially in the Russia market.  In
addition, a full quarter's operation from SSR/PCE (which was acquired in
September 1996) also accounted for a significant portion of the increase.

Pipeline and Other Industrial Services revenue was $16.4 million and $44.8
million for the third quarter and first nine months of 1997, respectively,
representing increase of $4.9 million (42%) and $16.4 million (58%),
respectively, over the same period of 1996.  The improvement was mainly due to a
strong North America and Latin America market, the September 1996 acquisition of
Vetco Pipeline Services, Inc., and the successful commercial introduction of
"Tru-Res" (high resolution pipeline inspection unit).  In addition, Other
Industrial Services revenue advanced due to increases in Middle East operations.

Gross Profit.   Gross profit was approximately $44.1 million (31% of revenue)
and $116.4 million (31% of revenue) for the third quarter and first nine months
of 1997 compared to $27.3 million (29% of revenue) and $66.8 million (28% of
revenue) for the same periods of 1996. The 1996 and 1997 acquisitions accounted
for approximately half of the improvement in gross profit with the remaining
increase coming from internal growth  in the Tubular Services, Solids Control,
Coiled Tubing and Pressure Control, and Pipeline product lines as market
conditions in several geographic regions remained favorable for each of these
product lines.  The improvement in gross profit percentage 

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
was related to greater revenue from high profit margin product lines, including
Coating, Solids Control, and Pipeline, and lower costs as a result of savings
achieved through the consolidation of several worldwide operating locations and
some price increases.

Selling, General and Administrative Costs.  Selling, general and administrative
costs were $13.4 million and $37.4 million in the third quarter and first nine
months 1997, increases of  $2.6 million and $10.8 million over the same periods
of 1996, respectively.  The increase was due primarily to the 1996 and 1997
acquisitions.  As a percent of revenue, selling, general and administrative
costs were 9.4% and 10.0% for the third quarter and first nine months of 1997,
respectively, down from 11.4% and 11.3% from the same periods of 1996,
respectively.  Compared to the second quarter of 1997, the third quarter 1997
selling, general and administrative costs was up $.6 million (5%) mainly as a
result of the third quarter 1997 acquisitions.

Research and Engineering Costs.  Research and engineering costs were $2.9
million and $7.8 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 1997,
respectively, an increase of $1.9 million and $5.1 million over 1996 levels.
The increase was due primarily to research and engineering projects associated
with the Drexel operations and the other acquisitions completed in 1996 and
1997.  The major portion of costs currently incurred is related to the Solids
Control innovations associated with screens, shakers,  and centrifuges, the
Company's Tru Res "High Resolution" pipeline tools, and continuing efforts
related to Tubular Services and Coiled Tubing products.

Write-Off of Long-Term Assets.  The first quarter 1996 write-off of long-term
assets of $63.1 million included a writedown of approximately $50.8 million
associated with the Company's adoption of SFAS No. 121 Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of  and
a decision by management to sell certain assets, primarily as a result of the
Drexel Merger, which resulted in additional write-downs of approximately $12.3
million.  There were no similar write-offs in the first nine months of 1997.

Drexel Transaction Costs.  The 1996 Drexel transaction costs of $11.3 million
included executive severance costs of $6.4 million associated with former
officers of the Company and consolidation costs of $4.9 million related
primarily to the consolidation of Tuboscope overhead facilities and personnel in
EAME, (Europe, Africa, and Middle East),  and the consolidation of certain
operating locations in North America.

Operating Profit.  Operating profit was $27.8 million and $71.1 million in the
third quarter and first nine months of 1997 compared to an operating profit of
$15.4 million in the third quarter of 1996 and an operating loss of $36.9
million for the nine months ending September 1996.  Excluding the Drexel
transaction costs and the write-off of long-lived assets, operating profit would
have been $15.5 million and $37.4 million in the third quarter and first nine
months of 1996, respectively.  The improvement in operating profit was due
mainly to the 1996 and 1997 acquisitions, the operating profit associated with
the additional revenue related to the increased activity level and market share
gains, consolidation savings and minor price increases.

Interest Expense.  Interest expense was $3.6 million and $10.7 million in the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, even with the
third quarter of 1996 and up $1.1 million over the first nine months of 1996.
The increase in interest expense for the first nine months of 1997 was due to an
increase in debt as a result of the 1996 and 1997 acquisitions.  This increase
was offset somewhat  by lower effective interest rates on the outstanding debt
balances as a result of the Company's retirement of its $75 million 10 3/4%
Senior Subordinated Notes.  Proceeds from the Company's Senior Term Loan
Facility were used to retire the Senior Subordinated Debt during the fourth
quarter of 1996.  In addition, the Company entered into four interest rate swap
transactions in 1996 which effectively hedges $90 million of the Company's
variable interest rate debt - see detailed discussion in Note 7 to the 1996
Consolidated Financial Statements.  Also, in May 1997 the Company purchased a
$40 million interest swap agreement which provides protection if interest rates
are greater than 7.77%.

Other Expense (Income).  Other expense (income), which includes interest income,
foreign exchange, and other expense (net), resulted in a net expense of $0.1
million and $1.5 million for the three and nine months ending September 30,
1997, respectively, compared to a net expense of $0.6 million and $1.0 million
in the same periods of 1996.   Net other expense increased in the first nine
months of 1997 primarily as a result of slight foreign exchange losses in the
first nine months of 1997 compared to foreign exchange gains in 1996.

Provision for Income Taxes.  The effective tax rate for the first nine months of
1997 was 37.9%.  The Company's effective tax rate is higher than the domestic
rate of 35% due to charges not allowable under domestic and foreign
jurisdictions related to goodwill amortization and foreign earnings subject to
tax rates differing from the domestic rate.

Net Income.  The third quarter and first nine months 1997 net income was $15.0
million and $36.6 million, respectively, compared to the third quarter 1996 net
income of $6.8 million and first nine months 1996 net loss of  $50.0 million.
The improvement is due to the factors discussed above.

Financial Condition and Liquidity
- ---------------------------------

For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company provided $33.9 million
of cash from operations compared to $4.9 million in  the same period of 1996.
Significant uses of cash from operations during the first nine months of 1997
principally related to a $29.5 million increase in accounts receivable, a  $18.8
million increase in inventory, and a $4.8 million increase in prepaid expenses
and other assets.  These increases in assets were all net of  the effects of the
1997 acquisitions.  The increase in accounts receivable was primarily the result
of greater revenue in several operations  and a slight increase in days sales
outstanding at September 30, 1997 compared to December 31, 1996.  Inventory
increased as a result of growing manufacturing operations in several product
lines as work-in-process was up $16.7 million due to equipment orders for third
party sales and internal operations.  Prepaid expenses were up due to an
increase in on-going jobs associated with the Pipeline operations and greater
prepaid insurance costs.  These increases were offset in part by an increase in
accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $15.1 million  (net of effects of
1997 acquisitions) primarily as a result of increases in accrued worker's
compensation and general liability insurance, accrued interest, and trade
accounts payable.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company used $54.4 million of
cash in  investing activities compared to a usage of $47.1 million in 1996.
Capital spending of $21.7 million was principally related to the Company's
Solids Control operations  in the growing Canadian and Latin American regions
and Tubular Services operations in North America.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company's financing activities
provided $23.7 million of cash.  Net borrowings of $17.5 million, proceeds of
$4.5 million from the sale of common stock, and net cash proceeds of $1.7
million received in the acquisition of FGS accounted for the cash generated from
financing activities.

Current and long-term debt was $209.1 million at September 30, 1997, an increase
of $24.4 million from the $184.7 million outstanding at December 31, 1996.  Debt
assumed in the acquisition of FGS of $5.2 million and net borrowings of  $27.2
million on the Company's senior term debt, offset by the retirement and payments
on various debt instruments, accounted for the increase.  The Company's
outstanding debt at September 30, 1997 consisted of $130.0 million of term loans
due under the Company's Senior Credit Agreement, $58.0 million due under the
Company's $100 million revolving credit facility , $4.6 million assumed in the
acquisition of FGS, $5.0 million of convertible notes related to the acquisition
of Gauthier Brothers, $0.7 million due under the Company's swingline facility,
and other debt of  $10.8 million.

At September 30, 1997, the Company had outstanding letters of credit amounting
to approximately $5.3 million.  The available facility on the Company's $100
million revolving credit facility and $5 million swingline facility was $37.9
million and $3.1 million, respectively, at September 30, 1997.

In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 128  "Earnings
Per Common Share".  This statement required earnings per common share be
reported for basic and dilutive earnings per share.  The statement is effective
for periods ending after December 15, 1997.  The Company's basic and dilutive
earnings per share for the three and nine months ending September 30, 1997
calculated under the SFAS No. 128 is $0.34  and $0.32 per share, and $0.84 and
$0.80 per share, respectively.
