(A Delaware Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 1998
(Unaudited)
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.
The Partnership engages primarily in oil and gas development and production in
Texas and is not involved in any industry segment other than oil and gas.
Note 2. Basis of presentation
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements as of March 31,
1998 of the Partnership include all adjustments and accruals consisting only of
normal recurring accrual adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation
of the results for the interim period. However, these interim results are not
necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto contained in the Partnership's report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997, as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, a copy of which is available upon request by writing to
Rich Dealy, Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, 5205 North O'Connor
Boulevard, 1400 Williams Square West, Irving, Texas 75039-3746.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1997 financial statements to
conform to the 1998 financial statement presentation.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations(1)
Results of Operations
Revenues:
The Partnership's oil and gas revenues decreased 30% to $254,933 from $362,049
for the three months ended March 31, 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 March 31, 1998, 13,416 barrels of oil,
4,033 barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and 17,432 mcf of gas were sold,
or 20,356 barrel of oil equivalents ("BOEs"). For the three months ended March
31, 1997, 12,871 barrels of oil and 25,746 mcf of gas were sold, or 17,162 BOEs.

<PAGE>
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 for 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 months ended March 31, 1998 is
the price received for dry residue gas and the price per mcf for natural gas for
the three months ended March 31, 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 $7.53, or 34%, from
$22.40 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $14.87 for the same period
in 1998. The average price received per barrel of NGLs during the three months
ended March 31, 1998 was $7.22. The average price received per mcf of gas
decreased 47% from $2.87 during the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $1.51
for the same period in 1998. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely
volatile in the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of
volatility to continue in the foreseeable future. The Partnership may therefore
sell its future oil and gas production at average prices lower or higher than
that received during the three months ended March 31, 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 March 1998. On April 23,
1998, the market price for West Texas intermediate crude was $13.80 per barrel.
A continuation of the oil price environment experienced during the first quarter
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.
Costs and Expenses:
Total costs and expenses decreased to $183,232 for the three months ended March
31, 1998 as compared to $188,301 for the same period in 1997, a decrease of
$5,069, or 3%. This decrease was due to decreases in production costs and
general and administrative expenses ("G&A"), offset by an increase in depletion.
Production costs were $120,639 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and
$128,242 for the same period in 1997, resulting in a $7,603 decrease, or 6%. The
decrease resulted from decreases in well maintenance costs and production 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 21% from $11,386 for the three months ended March 31,
1997 to $9,005 for the same period in 1998.
Depletion was $53,588 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to
$48,673 for the same period in 1997. This represented an increase in depletion
of $4,915, or 10%. The increase was attributable to a decline in oil and gas
reserves as a result of lower commodity prices and an increase in oil production
of 545 barrels for the three months ended March 31, 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 $73,891 during the three
months ended March 31, 1998 from the same period ended March 31, 1997. This
decrease was due to a decline in oil and gas sales receipts, offset by decreases
in production cost and G&A expenses paid.
Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities
The Partnership's investing activities during the three months ended March 31,
1998 were related to the addition of oil and gas equipment on active properties.
Proceeds from asset dispositions of $197 were received during the three months
ended March 31, 1998 from salvage income on one saltwater disposal well that was
plugged and abandoned in a prior year. Proceeds of $6,339 received during the
three months ended March 31, 1997 were related to equipment credits on various
active properties.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities
Cash was sufficient for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to cover
distributions to the partners of $169,704 of which $1,697 was distributed to the
managing general partner and $168,007 to the limited partners. For the same
period ended March 31, 1997, cash was sufficient for distributions to the
partners of $293,111 of which $2,930 was distributed to the managing general
partner and $290,181 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 March 1,
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.
