                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Participants and Employee Benefits Committee of
Santa Fe Energy Resources Savings Investment Plan


In our opinion, the financial statements listed in the accompanying index
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Santa Fe
Energy Resources Savings Investment Plan at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the
results of its operations and changes in plan equity for the years then ended,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes at December 31, 1994 and schedule of reportable
transactions for the year ended December 31, 1994 are presented for the purpose
of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of
Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The Fund Information in the statement of
financial condition and the statement of income and changes in plan equity is
presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the
statement of financial condition and the statement of income and changes in plan
equity of each fund. The supplemental schedules and Fund Information have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                SANTA FE ENERGY RESOURCES SAVINGS INVESTMENT PLAN

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN:

The following description of the Santa Fe Energy Resources Savings Investment
Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants
should refer to the plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's
provisions, as the document is controlling at all times.

GENERAL

The Plan is a defined contribution plan, established as the Santa Fe Energy
Resources Retirement and Savings Plan, which became operative and was restated
and renamed the Santa Fe Energy Resources Savings Investment Plan, effective
November 1, 1990, in anticipation of the spin-off of Santa Fe Energy Resources,
Inc. (SFER or the Company) from its parent company, Santa Fe Pacific Corporation
(SFP).

ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

The Plan is administered by the Employee Benefits Committee appointed by the
Board of Directors of the Company. Texas Commerce Bank currently acts as trustee
on behalf of the Plan. Hewitt Associates provides recordkeeping services to the
Plan.

ELIGIBILITY

Substantially all salaried full-time employees of the Company are eligible to
participate in the Plan on the first day of the month after their date of hire.
Eligible employees may become participants in the Plan by authorizing regular
payroll deductions and designating investment allocations for such deductions.

CONTRIBUTIONS

Participants may elect to contribute from 1% to 12% of their annual base pay.
Tax-deferred contributions to the Plan by individual employees were limited to
$9,240 and $8,994 in 1994 and 1993, respectively. This limitation is adjusted
annually to reflect cost-of-living adjustments. Further, the Internal Revenue
Code (Code) limits the total amount of contributions and forfeitures to the Plan
(and all other defined contribution plans of the Company) to the lesser of 25%
of total annual compensation or $30,000 per participant. The Plan is also
subject to the "top-heavy" rules of the Code and regulations promulgated
thereunder. These rules basically state that for any Plan year in which the Plan
is "top heavy", there are certain additional restrictions which apply with
respect to the contributions which are permitted on behalf of key employees.
There were no restrictions due to "top-heavy" provisions during 1994 or 1993.

                                      - 9 -

The Company contributes (the Employer Matching Contribution) on behalf of each
participant an amount equal to 100% of such participant's tax-deferred
contributions up to 4% of his annual base pay. Employer Matching Contributions
are invested in the Company Stock Fund.

At the end of each fiscal year, the Company may elect to make an additional
matching contribution (Employer Bonus Contribution) if the performance of the
Company meets or exceeds certain goals for that year. Under the Employer Bonus
Contribution, participants may receive up to another 50 percent (2 percent of
annual base pay) of each regular Company contribution. For the years ended
December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company made Employer Bonus Contributions of
$362,550 and $295,170, respectively. The Employer Bonus Contribution amounts for
1994 and 1993 are accrued as a receivable from employer in the statement of
financial condition at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Employer Bonus
Contributions are invested entirely in the Company Stock Fund.

A participant who receives a qualifying distribution from a former employer's
retirement or savings plan may contribute the distribution to the Plan. Such
contribution must be a "rollover" contribution in accordance with Section 402 of
the Code or be made by a direct trust-to-trust transfer.

PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution, and
allocations of (a) the Company's contribution, (b) Plan earnings of each fund in
which the participant has invested and (c) forfeitures of terminated
participants' nonvested accounts on the same basis used to record assets in the
financial statements. Forfeitures totaled $33,275 at December 31, 1994.

VESTING

Participants are 100% vested at all times with respect to their contributions
and rollover accounts. Participants' employer contributions accounts vest at a
rate of 20% per year for each full year of service and become 100% vested after
five full years of service as well as in the case of death, total disability,
attainment of normal retirement age or certain other circumstances.

INVESTMENTS

Participants can direct their investment decisions up to 12% of their annual
base pay into one or all of the investment funds. Contribution rates may be
changed at any time.

As of December 31, 1994, the five investment funds of the Plan were as follows:

o   FUND 1 - the "Fixed Interest Fund" is a fund invested on a fixed income
    basis, primarily comprised of investment contracts issued by insurance
    companies and a bank company collective trust fund that invests primarily in
    money market types of investments. Such investments generally provide for a
    guarantee of the principal amount of the fund and a guaranteed fixed
    interest rate, which rate may be subject to modification from time to time.

                                     - 10 -

o   FUND 2 - the "Pooled Equity Fund" or "S&P Index Fund" is a fund invested in
    an undivided interest in the Wells Fargo Equity Index Fund managed by Wells
    Fargo Institutional Trust Company. This bank collective trust fund consists
    of investments that attempt to mirror the performance of the Standard &
    Poor's Composite Stock Index.

o   FUND 3 - the "Company Stock Fund" is a fund invested in the common stock of
    the Company. Dividends and other distributions or amounts received in
    respect of company stock held in Fund 3 shall be reinvested in such stock,
    and each such participant's account shall be credited with a proportionate
    number of such "new" shares.

o   FUND 4 - the "Wellington Fund" or "Balanced Fund" is a fund derived from
    contributions invested in a diversified and balanced mix of bonds and common
    stocks, with the objectives of principal preservation and achievement of
    reasonable income and capital appreciation without significant risk. This
    fund is managed by the Vanguard Group of Investment Companies.

o   FUND 5 - the "Vanguard World Fund - United States Growth Portfolio" or
    "Growth Equity Fund" is derived from contributions invested primarily in
    common stocks with the objective of long-term capital appreciation. The fund
    is managed by the Vanguard Group of Investment Companies.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the trustee may invest such portion of a fund in
cash or short-term cash equivalents for liquidity purposes.

LOANS

Loans may be made pursuant to the Plan. In connection with such loans, the
provisions of the Plan (1) provide for the securing of such loans by, among
other things, the value of the participant's vested account balance, (2) provide
a reasonable rate of interest, (3) set forth the maximum loan term, (4)
establish any minimum and maximum loan amounts and (5) provide a fixed repayment
schedule. Only one loan per employee may be outstanding at one time and no
subsequent loans will be permitted until one month after the prior loan has been
paid in full.

During 1994, $693,814 of new loans were issued to participants and $631,422 of
principal payments were received from participants. The interest rate charged on
loans from the Plan at December 31, 1994 ranged from 8.5% to 10.75% depending
upon the length and terms of the loan.

WITHDRAWALS, TRANSFERS AND FORFEITURES

In the event of a participant's death, 100% of the amounts in his accounts will
be paid to his designated beneficiaries. In the event of termination of a
participant's employment, the participant will receive a distribution of the
vested value of their account as of the valuation date on or following their
termination of employment or normal retirement date. The Plan also provides for
hardship withdrawals under certain circumstances such as certain medical
expenses, purchase of a principal residence or tuition for postsecondary
education. Distributions may be made in a lump-sum payment or monthly
instalments for a specified period or, in the case of accounts invested in Fund
3, can be paid all in stock or part in stock and part in cash.

Forfeitures of unvested employer contributions are applied against future
employer contributions.

                                     - 11 -

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

The Board of Directors of the Company may, at any time, amend, discontinue
contributions or terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). In the event of Plan
termination, participants become fully vested in their accounts.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

METHOD OF ACCOUNTING

Financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting
and, accordingly, include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
financial position of the Plan.

VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS

Investments in the Fixed Income Fund are valued at contract or fair market
value. Valuation of investments in common stock and shares in registered
investment company funds is based upon published quotations for the last
business day of the Plan year. The valuation of the investment in the S&P Index
Fund is based upon its closing sales price reported for the last business day of
the year. Loans are valued at cost which approximates fair market value.

CONTRIBUTIONS

Employee contributions are recorded in the period during which the Company makes
payroll deductions from the Plan participants' earnings. Matching Company
contributions are recorded in the same period.

INCOME RECOGNITION

Investment income for dividends and interest is recorded on the accrual basis,
with dividends accrued on the ex-dividend date.

BENEFITS

Benefit claims are accrued when they have been processed and approved for
payment by the Plan. Claims processed and approved but not paid at December 31,
1994 are not shown as liabilities on the statement of net assets available for
plan benefits but are reflected as liabilities on the Plan's 5500.

EXPENSES

Plan administrative expenses are borne by the Company.

NOTE 4 - TAX STATUS OF THE PLAN:

The Internal Revenue Service has issued a favorable letter of determination with
respect to the tax status of the Plan dated March 29, 1995. However, the Plan
has been amended since receiving the determination letter. Management believes
the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (Code) and therefore the
related trust is exempt from federal income tax under Code Section 501(a).
