Note 1.     Organization and nature of operations

Parker &  Parsley  91-B,  L.P.  (the  "Partnership")  is a  limited  partnership
organized in 1991 under the laws of the State of Delaware.

Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
              and Results of Operations (1)

Results of Operations

Six months ended June 30, 1998 compared with six months ended
   June 30, 1997

Revenues:

The Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  decreased 29% to $472,291 from $666,802
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,  respectively.  The decrease in
revenues  resulted from lower average prices received,  offset by an increase in
production. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, 25,379 barrels of oil, 8,090
barrels  of natural  gas liquids  ("NGLs")  and 34,026 mcf of gas were sold,  or
39,140  barrel of oil  equivalents  ("BOEs").  For the six months ended June 30,
1997, 25,308 barrels of oil and 52,607 mcf of gas were sold, or 34,076 BOEs.

As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership began accounting for processed natural
gas   production  as  processed   natural  gas  liquids  and  dry  residue  gas.
Consequently,  separate  product volumes will not be comparable to periods prior
to September 30, 1997.  Also,  prices for gas products will not be comparable as
the price per mcf for  natural  gas for the three and six months  ended June 30,
1998 is the price received for dry residue gas and the price per mcf for natural
gas for the  three and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997 is a price for wet gas
(i.e., natural gas liquids combined with dry residue gas).

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  decreased  $6.49,  or 31%,  from
$20.75 for the six months  ended June 30,  1997 to $14.26 for the same period in
1998.  The average price received per barrel of NGLs during the six months ended
June 30, 1998 was $7.32. The average price received per mcf of gas decreased 44%
from  $2.69  during the six  months  ended  June 30,  1997 to $1.51 for the same
period in 1998.

During  most of 1997,  the  Partnership  benefitted  from  higher  oil prices as
compared to previous  years.  However,  during the fourth  quarter of 1997,  oil
prices began a downward  trend that has  continued  into 1998. On July 29, 1998,
the market  price for West Texas  intermediate  crude was $11.58 per  barrel.  A
continuation of the oil price environment  experienced  during the first half of
1998 will have an adverse  effect on the  Partnership's  revenues and  operating
cash flow and could result in additional  decreases in the carrying value of the
Partnership's oil and gas properties.

A gain on  disposition of assets of $197,  received  during the six months ended
June 30, 1998,  was due to the sale of equipment on one saltwater  disposal well
plugged and abandoned in a prior year.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and expenses decreased to $357,523 for the six months ended June 30,
1998 as compared to $376,128 for the same period in 1997, a decrease of $18,605,
or 5%. This  decrease  was due to declines in  production  costs and general and
administrative expenses ("G&A"), offset by an increase in depletion.

Production  costs  were  $236,766  for the six months  ended  June 30,  1998 and
$261,165  for the same period in 1997  resulting in a $24,399  decrease,  or 9%.
This  decrease was due to lower well  maintenance  costs and  production  taxes,
offset by an increase in ad valorem taxes.

G&A's  components are independent  accounting and engineering  fees and managing
general  partner  personnel  costs.  During  this  period,  G&A  decreased,   in
aggregate,  23%,  from $20,529 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $15,831
for the same period in 1998.

Depletion  was  $104,926  for the six months  ended June 30,  1998  compared  to
$94,434 for the same period in 1997.  This  represented an increase in depletion
of $10,492,  or 11%. This increase was primarily  attributable  to a decrease in
oil  reserves  during  the six months  ended June 30,  1998 as a result of lower
commodity  prices,  offset by a reduction in the  Partnership's  net  depletable
basis from charges taken in accordance  with  Statement of Financial  Accounting

Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed Of" ("SFAS 121") during the fourth  quarter of
1997.

Three months ended June 30, 1998 compared with three months ended
   June 30, 1997

Revenues:

The Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  decreased 29% to $217,358 from $304,753
for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The decrease in
revenues  resulted from lower average prices received,  offset by an increase in
production.  For the three months ended June 30,  1998,  11,963  barrels of oil,
4,057 barrels of NGLs and 16,594 mcf of gas were sold,  or 18,786 BOEs.  For the
three months ended June 30,  1997,  12,438  barrels of oil and 26,861 mcf of gas
were sold, or 16,915 BOEs.

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  decreased  $5.48,  or 29%,  from
$19.04 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $13.56 for the same period in
1998.  The average  price  received  per barrel of NGLs during the three  months
ended  June 30,  1998 was  $7.41.  The  average  price  received  per mcf of gas
decreased 40% from $2.53 during the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $1.51 in
1998.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and  expenses  decreased to $174,291 for the three months ended June
30,  1998 as compared  to  $187,827  for the same period in 1997,  a decrease of
$13,536,  or 7%. This decrease was due to declines in production  costs and G&A,
offset by an increase in depletion.

Production  costs were  $116,127  for the three  months  ended June 30, 1998 and
$132,923 for the same period in 1997  resulting in a $16,796  decrease,  or 13%.
This  decrease  was  due to  lower  well  maintenance  costs  and a  decline  in
production taxes, offset by an increase in ad valorem taxes.

G&A's  components are independent  accounting and engineering  fees and managing
general  partner  personnel  and  operating  costs.   During  this  period,  G&A
decreased,  in  aggregate,  25% from $9,143 for the three  months ended June 30,
1997 to $6,826 for the same period in 1998.

Depletion  was $51,338  for the three  months  ended June 30,  1998  compared to
$45,761 for the same period in 1997.  This  represented an increase in depletion
of $5,577, or 12%. This increase was primarily attributable to a decrease in oil
reserves  during  the  three  months  ended  June 30,  1998 as a result of lower
commodity prices, offset by a reduction in oil production of 475 barrels for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash  provided by operating  activities  decreased  $237,946  during the six
months  ended  June 30,  1998 from the same  period  ended June 30,  1997.  This
decrease  was due to a  decline  in oil  and gas  sales  receipts,  offset  by a
decrease in production costs paid.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

The  Partnership's  investing  activities for the six months ended June 30, 1998
were related to the addition of oil and gas equipment on active properties.

Proceeds from asset  dispositions  of $197 were  received  during the six months
ended June 30, 1998 from salvage income on one saltwater  disposal well that was
plugged and abandoned in a prior year.  Proceeds of $5,898  received  during the
six months  ended June 30,  1997 were  related to  equipment  credits in various
active properties.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Cash  was   sufficient  for  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  1998  to  cover
distributions to the partners of $281,485 of which $2,815 was distributed to the
managing  general  partner and  $278,670 to the limited  partners.  For the same
period  ended  June 30,  1997,  cash was  sufficient  for  distributions  to the
partners of $515,640 of which $5,156 was  distributed  to the  managing  general
partner and $510,484 to the limited partners.

It is expected  that future net cash  provided by operating  activities  will be
sufficient for any capital expenditures and any distributions. As the production
from the properties declines, distributions are also expected to decrease.

Information systems for the year 2000

The managing general partner will be required to modify its information  systems
in order to  accurately  process  Partnership  data  referencing  the year 2000.
Because of the importance of occurrence  dates in the oil and gas industry,  the
consequences of not pursuing these  modifications  could be very  significant to
the Partnership's ability to manage and report operating activities.  Currently,
the managing general partner plans to contract with third parties to perform the
software  programming  changes  necessary to correct any existing  deficiencies.
Such  programming  changes are  anticipated  to be completed  and tested by June
1999. The managing  general  partner will allocate a portion of the costs of the
year 2000 programming  charges to the Partnership when they are incurred,  along
with recurring general and administrative  expenses.  Although the costs are not
estimable at this time, they should not be significant to the Partnership.
