NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(1) General Information -
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by
the Partnership and are unaudited except for the balance sheet at
December 31, 1997 which has been taken from the audited financial
statements at that date. The financial statements reflect adjustments,
all of which were of a normal recurring nature, which are in the opinion
of the managing general partner necessary for a fair presentation.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The
Partnership believes adequate disclosure is provided by the information
presented. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the audited financial statements and the notes included in the latest
Form 10-K.
(2) Organization and Terms of Partnership Agreement -
Swift Energy Pension Partners 1991-C, Ltd., a Texas limited
partnership ("the Partnership"), was formed on December 30, 1991, for
the purpose of purchasing net profits interest, overriding royalty
interests and royalty interests (collectively, "nonoperating interests")
in producing oil and gas properties within the continental United States
and Canada. Swift Energy Company ("Swift"), a Texas corporation, and VJM
Corporation ("VJM"), a California corporation, serve as Managing General
Partner and Special General Partner of the Partnership, respectively.
The sole limited partner of the Partnership is Swift Depositary Company,
which has assigned all of its beneficial (but not of record) rights and
interest as limited partner to the investors in the Partnership
("Interest Holders"), in the form of Swift Depositary Interests
("SDIs").
The Managing General Partner has paid or will pay out of its
own corporate funds (as a capital contribution to the Partnership) all
selling commissions, offering expenses, printing, legal and accounting
fees and other formation costs incurred in connection with the offering
of SDIs and the formation of the Partnership, for which the Managing
General Partner will receive an interest in continuing costs and
revenues of the Partnership. The 350 interest holders made total capital
contributions of $3,664,333.
Generally, all continuing costs (including general and
administrative reimbursements and direct expenses) and revenues are
allocated 85 percent to the interest holders and 15 percent to the
general partners. After partnership payout, as defined in the
Partnership Agreement, continuing costs and revenues will be shared 75
percent by the interest holders, and 25 percent by the general partners.
(3) Significant Accounting Policies -
Use of Estimates --
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from estimates. Certain reclassifications have been
made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
Nonoperating Interests in Oil and Gas Properties --
The Partnership accounts for its ownership interest in oil and
gas properties using the proportionate consolidation method, whereby
the Partnership's share of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses
is included in the appropriate classification in the financial
statement.
For financial reporting purposes the Partnership follows the
"full-cost" method of accounting for nonoperating interests in oil and
gas property costs. Under this method of accounting, all costs incurred
in the acquisition of nonoperating interests in oil and gas properties
are capitalized. The unamortized cost of nonoperating interests in oil
and gas properties is limited to the "ceiling limitation" (calculated
separately for the Partnership, limited partners and general partners).
The "ceiling limitation" is calculated on a quarterly basis and
represents the estimated future net revenues from nonoperating interests
in proved properties using current prices discounted at ten percent.
Proceeds from the sale or disposition of nonoperating interests in oil
and gas properties are treated as a reduction of the cost of the
nonoperating interests with no gains or losses recognized except in
significant transactions.
The Partnership computes the provision for amortization of oil
and gas properties on the units-of-production method. Under this method,
the provision is calculated by multiplying the total unamortized cost of
oil and gas properties by an overall rate determined by dividing the
physical units of oil and gas produced during the period by the total
estimated units of proved oil and gas reserves at the beginning of the
period.
The calculation of the "ceiling limitation" and the provision
for depreciation, depletion and amortization is based on estimates of
proved reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating
quantities of proved reserves and in projecting the future rates of
production, timing and plan of development. The accuracy of any reserve
estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of
engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Results of
drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of the estimate
may justify revision of such estimate. Accordingly, reserve estimates
are often different from the quantities of oil and gas that are
ultimately recovered.
(4) Related-Party Transactions -
The Partnership entered into a Net Profits and Overriding
Royalty Interest Agreement ("NP/OR Agreement") with Swift Energy
Operating Partners 1991-C, Ltd. ("Operating Partnership"), an affiliated
partnership managed by Swift for the purpose of acquiring working
interests in producing oil and gas properties. Under the terms of the
NP/OR Agreement, the Partnership has been conveyed a nonoperating
interest in the aggregate net profits (i.e., oil and gas sales net of
related operating costs) of the properties acquired equal to the
Partnership's proportionate share of the property acquisition costs.
(5) Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations -
The Partnership's revenues are primarily the result of sales
of its oil and natural gas production. Market prices of oil and natural
gas may fluctuate and adversely affect operating results.
In the normal course of business, the Partnership extends
credit, primarily in the form of monthly oil and gas sales receivables,
to various companies in the oil and gas industry which results in a
concentration of credit risk. This concentration of credit risk may be
affected by changes in economic or other conditions and may accordingly
impact the Partnership's overall credit risk. However, the Managing
General Partner believes that the risk is mitigated by the size,
reputation, and nature of the companies to which the Partnership
extends credit. In addition, the Partnership generally does not require
collateral or other security to support customer receivables.

(6) Fair Value of Financial Instruments -
The Partnership's financial instruments consist of cash and
cash equivalents and short-term receivables and payables. The carrying
amounts approximate fair value due to the highly liquid nature of the
short-term instruments.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The Partnership was formed for the purpose of investing in nonoperating
interests in producing oil and gas properties located within the continental
United States and Canada. In order to accomplish this, the Partnership goes
through two distinct yet overlapping phases with respect to its liquidity and
results of operations. When the Partnership was formed, it commenced its
"acquisition" phase, with all funds placed in short-term investments until
required for the acquisition of nonoperating interests. Therefore, the interest
earned on these pre-acquisition investments becomes the primary cash flow source
for initial Interest Holder distributions. As the Partnership acquires
nonoperating interests in producing properties, net cash from ownership of
nonoperating interests becomes available for distribution, along with the
investment income. After all partnership funds have been expended on
nonoperating interests in producing oil and gas properties, the Partnership
enters its "operations" phase. During this phase, income from nonoperating
interests in oil and gas sales generates substantially all revenues, and
distributions to Interest Holders reflect those revenues less all associated
partnership expenses. The Partnership may also derive proceeds from the sale of
nonoperating interests in acquired oil and gas properties, when the sale of such
interests is economically appropriate or preferable to continued operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Oil and gas reserves are depleting assets and therefore often experience
significant production declines each year from the date of acquisition through
the end of the life of the property. The primary source of liquidity to the
Partnership comes almost entirely from the income generated from the sale of oil
and gas produced from ownership interests in oil and gas properties. Net cash
provided by operating activities totaled $99,800 and $191,822 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This source of liquidity and the
related results of operations, and in turn cash distributions, will decline in
future periods as the oil and gas produced from these properties also declines
while production and general and administrative costs remain relatively stable
making it unlikely that the Partnership will hold the properties until they are
fully depleted, but will likely liquidate when a substantial majority of the
reserves have been produced. Cash provided by proceeds from property sales
totaled $67,915 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The Partnership has
expended all of the partners' net commitments available for property
acquisitions and development by acquiring producing oil and gas properties. The
partnership invests primarily in proved producing properties with nominal levels
of future costs of development for proven but undeveloped reserves. Significant
purchases of additional reserves or extensive drilling activity are not
anticipated. Cash distributions totaled $152,754 and $187,270 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
The Partnership does not allow for additional assessments from the
partners or interest holders to fund capital requirements. However, funds are
available from partnership revenues or proceeds from the sale of partnership
property. The Managing General Partner believes that the funds currently
available to the Partnership will be adequate to meet any anticipated capital
requirements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following analysis explains changes in the revenues and expense
categories for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 (current quarter) when compared
to the quarter ended June 30, 1997 (corresponding quarter), and for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 (current period), when compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1997 (corresponding period).
Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997
Income from nonoperating interests decreased 44 percent in the second
quarter of 1998 when compared to the same quarter in 1997. Oil and gas sales
declined $40,750 or 31 percent in the second quarter of 1998 when compared to
the corresponding quarter in 1997, primarily due to decreased oil prices.
Current quarter oil prices declined 36 percent or $5.82/BBL. The decrease in oil
prices had a significant impact on partnership performance. Also, gas production
decreased 11 percent and oil production declined 20 percent, further
contributing to decreased revenues. Declines in revenues were partially offset
by an increase in gas prices of 50 percent or $.75/MCF when compared to second
quarter 1997 prices.

SWIFT ENERGY PENSION PARTNERS 1991-C, LTD.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Associated amortization expense decreased 18 percent or $7,477 in 1998
compared to second quarter 1997, also related to the decline in production
volumes.
Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997
Income from nonoperating interests decreased 51 percent in the first six
months of 1998 when compared to the same period in 1997. Oil and gas sales
declined $156,150 or 45 percent in the first six months of 1998 when compared to
the corresponding period in 1997, primarily due to decreased gas and oil
production. Gas production decreased 38 percent and oil production declined 17
percent. The decrease in production volumes had a significant impact on
partnership performance. The partnership's sale of several properties in 1997
had an impact on 1998 partnership production volumes. Also, current period oil
and gas prices declined 36 percent or $6.35/BBL and 7 percent or $.14/MCF,
respectively, further contributing to decreased revenues.
Associated amortization expense decreased 32 percent or $33,207 in 1998
compared to the first six months of 1997, also related to the decline in
production volumes.
During 1998, partnership revenues and costs will be shared between the
Interest Holders and general partners in an 85:15 ratio.
