ITEM 7 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

     (b) Pro Forma Financial Information

                    
                   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following  unaudited  pro forma  financial  statements  are derived from the
historical financial statements of Abraxas Petroleum  Corporation  (Company) and
are adjusted to reflect the  divestiture  of the Company's  Wyoming  properties,
previously  reported on Form 8-K and Form 8-K/A  Number 1 filed on November  30,
1998 and January 27, 1999 respectively.  The unaudited pro forma statements also
reflect the acquisition of New Cache Petroleums Ltd (New Cache) described in the
Form 8-K filed on January 28, 1999.

The unaudited pro forma  condensed  balance sheet of the Company as of September
30,  1998  has  been  prepared  assuming  that the  divestiture  of the  Wyoming
properties and the  acquisition of New Cache occurred on September 30, 1998. The
historical  balance  sheet of New Cache is as of August 31, 1998 as their fiscal
year ended on November 30. The  unaudited pro forma  consolidated  statements of
operations are presented as if the divestiture of the Wyoming properties and the
acquisition of New Cache occurred at the beginning of the period presented.  The
historical  financial  statements  of  New  Cache  included  in  the  pro  forma
statements  are for the nine months  ended August 31, 1998 and November 30, 1997
respectively.

The unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustrative  purposes only
and may not be  indicative  of the results that would have been obtained had the
divestiture and acquisition  actually  occurred on the dates assumed,  nor is it
necessarily  indicative of the future consolidated results of operations.  While
the Company believes that cost savings in general and administrative expense for
the combined  entities will be achieved,  these  potential cost savings have not
been included in the pro forma statements of operations.
