Item 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On October 21, 1997, as had been previously announced on October 16,
1997, Snyder Oil Corporation ("SOCO") completed the disposition of its 14
million share interest in Patina Oil & Gas Corporation ("Patina"). The shares
were sold through a combination of an underwritten secondary public offering and
repurchase by Patina at a net price of $9.332 per share. Simultaneously, SOCO's
representatives on Patina's Board of Directors, John C. Snyder and William J.
Johnson, resigned from Patina's Board of Directors.
Net proceeds totalled approximately $127 million. As the result of the
sale, SOCO expects to realize a gain, net of provision for taxes, of
approximately $9.6 million.
Item 5. OTHER EVENTS.
Repurchase of Warrants. As announced on October 21, 1997, SOCO has
issued 300,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for the surrender of the
warrants held by Union Pacific Resources Group, Inc. The warrants had entitled
the holder to purchase approximately 2.1 million shares of common stock at a
purchase price of $21.04 per share. Half the warrants would have expired in
February 1998, with the remaining half expiring in February 1999.
Partial Call for Redemption of Preferred Stock. On October 21, 1997,
SOCO also called for redemption on November 10, 1997, 2,067,000 depositary
shares of $6.00 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock, in accordance with the
terms under which they were issued. The shares to be redeemed represent one-half
of the depositary shares outstanding. Each depositary share represents a
one-fourth interest in a share of $6.00 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred
Stock.
The depositary shares will be redeemed, on a pro rata basis, at a
redemption price of $25.90 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends to the
redemption date of $0.1667 per depositary share. Each depositary share is
convertible into 1.2221 shares of common stock at an adjusted conversion price
of $20.46 per share of common stock. Holders of depositary shares called for
redemption who desire to convert such shares must convert the depositary shares
prior to 5:00 p.m. on November 3, 1997. No accrued dividends will be paid on
depositary shares that are converted into common stock. Dividends on the
depositary shares called for redemption will cease to accrue on November 10,
1997.
As of the close of business on October 20, 1997, there were a total of
4,134,000 depositary shares outstanding. The depositary shares are convertible
into a total of 5,052,161 shares of common stock

Exhibit 99.1
PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF
SNYDER OIL CORPORATION
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements set
forth the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 1997, and the results
of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997, and the year ended
December 31, 1996, adjusted for certain significant transactions discussed
below. The pro forma financial statements are based upon the assumptions set
forth in the accompanying notes to such statements. The pro forma adjustments
are based upon available information and assumptions that management believes
are reasonable under the circumstances.
The pro forma financial statements comprise historical financial data that
have been retroactively adjusted or combined to reflect the effect of the
transactions discussed below on the historical financial statements of the
Company. The pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 1997,
and the related pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the
six months then ended and the year ended December 31, 1996, were prepared as if
the transactions were consummated on June 30, 1997, January 1, 1997, and January
1, 1996, respectively. The pro forma financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the related historical financial statements and are not
necessarily indicative of the results that would have actually occurred had the
transactions been consummated on the dates or for the periods indicated or the
results which may occur in the future.
Pro Forma Divested Interests:
During 1996, the Company consummated three significant transactions
pursuant to which oil and gas properties were divested, including the sale of a
45% interest in its Piceance Basin holdings for $22.4 million, the sale of a 50%
interest in its Green River Basin gas project for $16.9 million and the sale of
its interests in the Giddings Field of southeast Texas for $11.8 million. These
transactions have been reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma
condensed consolidated financial statements as "pro forma divested interests."
Pro Forma Acquired Interests:
During 1996, the Company consummated three significant transactions
pursuant to which incremental interests in certain properties located in the
Gulf of Mexico were acquired for a net purchase price of $72.1 million. These
transactions have been reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma
condensed consolidated financial statements as "pro forma acquired interests."
Pro Forma Patina Disposition:
On October 21, 1997, the Company completed the disposition of its 74%
interest in Patina Oil and Gas Corporation ("Patina"). As a result of the sale,
Patina will no longer be a consolidated subsidiary in the Company's financial
statements. This transaction has been reflected in the accompanying unaudited
pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements as "pro forma Patina
disposition."
