   This Amendment No. 2 on Schedule 13D/A ("Amendment No. 2") to the Statement
on Schedule 13D (as amended by Amendment No. 1 on Schedule 13D/A ("Amendment
No. 1")) is filed on behalf of each of RIMCO Partners, L.P.,  RIMCO Partners,
L.P. II,  RIMCO Partners, L.P. III,  RIMCO Partners, L.P. IV, Resource
Investors Management Company Limited Partnership, RIMCO Associates, Inc., Roy
V. Hood, Paul E. McCollam, Stephen F. Oakes, David R. Whitney and John B.
Parsons (the "Reporting Persons").

   This Amendment No. 2 is filed to reflect the conversion by Universal Seismic
Associates, Inc. (the "Company") of all of the outstanding principal amount of
the 5% Convertible Notes (the "Convertible Notes") issued by the Company to the
Reporting Persons and the exchange of the 10% Senior Secured Exchangeable
General Obligation Notes ("Exchangeable Notes") issued by UNEXCO, Inc., a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company to the Reporting Persons.  The aggregate
number of shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the
"Common Stock") deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons was
not materially changed as a result of such conversion and exchange.

   Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized term used but not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Schedule
13D, as amended ("Schedule 13D").

Item 1.   Security and Issuer:  No change.

Item 2.   Identity and Background:  No change.

Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

   The third paragraph and subsequent table of Item 3 are hereby deleted in
their entirety and replaced with the following:

   On January 19, 1996, the Limited Partnerships purchased $500,000 of
Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes were in substantially the form filed
as Exhibit C to the Schedule 13D and incorporated herein by reference.  The
Convertible Notes include a provision for the Company, at its option, in the
event that the Common Stock should trade at 150% of the conversion price for a
period of 20 consecutive trading days, to convert all (but not less than all)
of the outstanding Convertible Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest due
thereon to the effective date of such conversion into fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Common Stock at the conversion price then in effect.
On August 14, 1996,  pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes, the
Company exercised its option to so convert all of the Convertible Notes at a
conversion price of $3.45 per share. The following table sets forth the
principal amount of the Convertible Notes and the number of shares received
pursuant to the conversion of the Convertible Notes by the Company on August
