ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

       As previously announced, on December 23, 1996, Global Industries, Ltd.
("Global") acquired from a subsidiary of J. Ray McDermott, S.A. a 49% ownership
interest in CCC Fabricaciones y Construcciones, S.A. de C.V. ("CCC"), a leading
provider of offshore construction services in Mexico, as well as the DB-21, a
400-foot combination pipelay derrick barge, a crawler crane, a saturation
diving system and approximately 21 acres of land located adjacent to Global's
facility in New Iberia, Louisiana (the "CCC Acquisition").  Global also
acquired from a subsidiary of J. Ray McDermott, S.A. an option to purchase for
$12.0 million the DB-15, a 400-foot combination pipelay derrick barge currently
chartered to CCC.  The remaining 51% interest in CCC has been retained by a
group of affiliated privately-held Mexican companies that have participated in
CCC since its formation.  The total purchase price for the CCC Acquisition
(including the exercise price of the option to purchase the DB-15) was $38.0
million.  In addition, Global (i) has loaned $23.0 million to CCC to repay
$15.0 million of existing indebtedness and for working capital needs and (ii)
has provided performance guarantees supporting approximately $50.0 million of
CCC's existing indebtedness, primarily relating to existing construction
projects in progress.  Global's investment in CCC will be accounted for under
the equity method.

The Stockholders of
CCC Fabricaciones y Construcciones, S. A. de C. V.:

                                                                 (Mexican Pesos)

In my capacity as Statutory Auditor, I have examined the statement of financial
position of CCC Fabricaciones y Construcciones, S. A. de C. V. as of December
31, 1995, and the related statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity
and changes in financial position for the year then ended.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  My
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
my audit.

My audit was conducted with the provisions of Article 166 of the General
Corporations Law and in accordance generally accepted auditing standards those
standards require that the audit be planned and performed to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of  material
misstatement and are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in Mexico.  An audit consists of examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis
for my opinion.

In October 1995, the Company suffered a disaster where one of its marine vessel
was lost.  The loss was covered by the insurance.

As discussed in note 11 c. to the financial statements at December 31, 1995 and
1994, the recovery of accounts receivable for leasing to affiliated companies
is uncertain.  Such accounts amount to $31,720,248 and $25,033,494 ($16,472,655
at historical value), respectively, which are being negotiated and may generate
a future loss for the company in an amount which is unknown at the date of this
report.

As discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements, the Company's management is
dealing in the process of selling the investment in shares of its associated
company "Talleres Navales del Golfo, S. A. de C.V.".  Consequently such
investment is stated at cost, less the recognition of the estimated loss in the
results of operations reflected in its financial statements (unaudited) for the
ninth-month period ended December 31, 1995, and deducted them the amortization
of the excess in cost on investment.  Even though the Company considers not to
incur in significant losses in the sale of this investment.  The final outcome
of this matter is contingent.

Generally accepted accounting principles in Mexico establish that these type of
investment should be updated near the closing date of the company which
maintain the investment, taking into account the effects of inflation in the
associated company and, if applicable, adjusting the investment to net market
value.  Generally accepted audit standards establish that the financial
statements of the associated company should be audited, and according to the
information provided by the Company's





                                       5
<PAGE>   6
management, the financial statements of the associated company have not yet
been examined by an Independent Public Accountant.

In my opinion, except for the fact that the financial statements of the
associated company were not restated and for the effects that may be derived
from having audited financial statements of the associated company, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of CCC Fabricaciones y Construcciones, S. A.
de C. V. at December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the results of its operations, the
changes in its stockholders' equity and the changes in its financial position
for the year then ended, in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in Mexico.

I submit this opinion in compliance with the provisions of Article 166 of the
General Corporations Law and the bylaws of CCC Fabricaciones y Construcciones,
S. A. de C. V.

We have examined the statements of financial position of CCC Fabricaciones y
Construcciones, S. A. de C. V. as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the related
statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and changes in financial
position for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards in Mexico.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement and are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in Mexico.  An audit consists of examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion, except for the limitation indicated in
paragraph five below.

In October 1995, the Company suffered a disaster where one of its marine vessel
was lost.  The loss was covered by the insurance.

As mentioned in note 11 c. to the financial statements as of December 31, 1995
and 1994, the recovery of accounts receivable on leases from affiliated
companies is uncertain, for $31,720,248 and $25,033,494 ($16,472,655 at
historical value), respectively, which are currently being negotiated and may
result in a future loss for the Company in an amount which is unknown at the
date of this report.

As discussed in note 7 to the financial statements, the Company's management is
dealing in the process of selling the investment in shares of its associated
company Talleres Navales del Golfo, S. A. de C. V.  Consequently such
investment is stated at cost, less the recognition of the estimated loss in the

nine-month period ended December 31, 1995, and deducted them the amortization
of the excess in cost on investment.  Even though the Company considers not to

been examined by an Independent Public Accountant.

In our opinion, except for the fact that the financial statements of the

                       Notes to the Financial Statements

                  (Mexican pesos of constant purchasing power
                             at December 31, 1995)

(1)  Operations and summary of significant accounting policies:

     The Company's main activity is to render services mainly to Petroleos
     Mexicanos (PEMEX) of oil and gas pipeline, construction and installation
     of submarine oil and gas pipelines, manufacture and installation,
     maintenance and repair of oil platforms, naval services related with
     barges, tugboats and all type of marine vessels, constructions of
     industrial plants, manufacture and installation of structural bridges,
     construction of catalytic plants and lease of marine vessels, as well as
     investment in other companies' shares.

     Grupo Consorcio de Fabricaciones y Construcciones, S.A. de C.V. owns 51%
     of the Company and OPI International, Inc., which was purchased by J. Ray
     McDermott Holdings, Inc. in February 1995, owns the remaining 49%.

     The Company has no personnel.  Administrative and labor services are
     provided by an affiliate.

     In accordance with provisions of the Monetary Law until December 31, 1994,
     it was mandatory to express all figures in financial statements or other
     accounting documents in "New pesos" or with the symbol "N$".  As from
     January 1, 1996, this provision was revoked and it is obliged to express
     them in pesos ($).

     A description of the most significant accounting policies and practices
     followed by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements
     follows:

     a.      Financial statements presentation - The accompanying financial
             statements include the recognition of the effects of inflation on
             the financial information and are expressed in pesos of constant
             purchasing power at the most date of the recent statement of
             financial position.

             The most significant Mexican National Consumer Price Indexes
             (NCPI) used to recognize the effects of inflation were:

             <S>                                        <C>
             December 31, 1995                          156.9150
             December 31, 1994                          103.2566
             December 31, 1993                           96.4550
</TABLE>

     b.      Temporary investments - Stated at the lower of acquisition
             cost plus earned interest at the statement of financial
             position date, or estimated market value.  Increases or
             decreases are reflected in current year's operations.

                       Notes to the Financial Statements

                  (Mexican pesos of constant purchasing power
                             at December 31, 1995)

         c.      Income and cost from construction and leasing services -
                 Income from construction, and related costs, are recognized as
                 incurred based on periodic estimates.  Construction cost is
                 restated using factors derived from the NCPI.

         d.      Investment in shares - Investment in shares stock of
                 associated company from which the Company owns 40% of its
                 capital stock, is valued at the lower of acquisition cost plus
                 the recognition of equity in its results of operations, or net
                 market value (note 7).  The excess of cost on investment is
                 amortized by the straight-line method over twenty years.

         e.      Furniture, machinery and construction equipment - The
                 furniture, machinery and construction equipment, including
                 those acquired through financial leasing, are restated at net
                 replacement value, based on appraisals made by independent
                 appraisers.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line
                 method, according to the useful life of the corresponding
                 assets.

         f.      Income tax (IT) - The IT charged to operations, include the
                 currently payable amount, and in addition recognize the effect
                 on IT of significant timing differences between taxable and
                 accounting income, on which it may reasonably be estimated
                 that a tax benefit or liability for tax purposes will arise
                 within a specific period and are not offset with timing items
                 of similar nature.

         g.      Foreign currency transactions and exchange differences - All
                 foreign currency transactions are recorded at the rates of
                 exchanges prevailing on the date of their execution or
                 liquidation.  Foreign currency assets and liabilities are
                 translated at the exchange rates in force at the date of the
                 statement of financial position.  Exchange differences are
                 charged to current year's operations.

         h.      Monetary effect - Determined by multiplying the difference
                 between monetary assets and liabilities at the beginning of
                 each month by inflation to year-end.  The aggregate results
                 represent the gain on monetary position derived from
                 inflation.

         i.      Restatement of capital stock and retained earnings -
                 Determined by multiplying capital stock contributions and
                 retained earnings by factors derived from the NCPI, which
                 measure the accumulated inflation from the dates when
                 contributions were made and earnings or losses were generated,
                 to year- end.  The amounts thus obtained represent the
                 constant values of stockholders' investment, which are stated
                 together with historical values.

         j.      Restatement of stockholders' equity - Determined by the
                 algebraic sum of the monetary effect, including the
                 accumulated results from the original monetary position and
                 the results from holding non-monetary assets.

         The future cash flow of these transactions will be applied to cover
         loans in U.S. dollars, as well as to finance the working capital.

         The exchange rate with regard to U.S. dollar at December 31, 1995 and
         1994 was $7.69 and $4.94, respectively.  At February 2, 1996, date of
         the accountants report, it was $7.50

         Up to December 20, 1994, the rate of exchange slid on a daily basis;
         however, on such date, the Mexican Government decided to widen the
         fluctuation range.  The following day, Banco de Mexico eliminated such
         band allowing the rate of exchange to vary according to demand, and
         supply, giving rise to a devaluation of the Mexican peso before the
         U.S. dollar and other currencies.

         At December 31, 1995, the Company held foreign non-monetary assets for
         an approximate value of US$19,779,444, which replacement value may
         only be determined in foreign currency.

         --------------------------------------------------------

         Since 1992, CCC Fabricaciones y Construcciones, S.A. de C.V. (CCC) has
         been in the process of acquiring a significant portion of the shares
         of Astilleros Unidos de Veracruz, S.A. de C.V. (AUVER), with the
         purpose of complementing its marine operations and transferring its
         operating equipment from Tuxpan to Veracruz cities.

         In this process, CCC took over the management of AUVER and in April
         1992 transferred its technical and administrative personnel, as well
         as its construction equipment to the facilities of AUVER to conduct
         joint operations.  At the same time, financial support was given to
         AUVER, which in the other hand, has provided services to CCC.  The net
         balance of these transactions in favor of CCC amounts to $69,873,467
         ($45,978,461 at historical values) at December 31, 1994.

         In December 1994, the fourd of the first importance court of Veracruz
         City declared the bankruptcy of AUVER and, on the other hand, in May
         1994, Talleres Navales del Golfo, S.A. de C.V. (TNG), an affiliate of
         CCC, obtained the concession to use the harbor installations on the
         shipyard located in the port of Veracruz.  Consequently, CCC has
         continued with its purpose to complement its marine operations by
         investing in its affiliated Company TNG, by acquiring 40% of its
         capital stock and initially contributing the debt payable by AUVER on
         the amount of N$45,978,461.  On December 31, 1994, CCC and TNG entered
         into an agreement whereby the latter recognizes such debt, indicating
         that CCC was committed to spend $66,450,915 of its own equity to
         maintain the shipyard's operations and preserve its assets, for the
         benefit of TNG and recognizes CCC as debtor for such amount, which CCC
         capitalized as part of its 40% share in the capital stock of TNG.  The
         difference between the debt recorded in books $45,978,461, and the
         final debt recognized

         by TNG of $66,450,915 of $20,472,454 was recognized as other income in
         the statement of income.

         TNG initiated operations on March 10, 1995, with the commitment to pay
         concession rights for 30 years as set forth in the concession
         agreement.  In addition, TNG acquired the following commitments:

         -       Purchase AUVER'S fixed assets for at least 10 million dollars.

         -       Settle a debt payable to Navimim, over the incomplete
                 construction of vessels, up to 2 million dollars.

         -       Liquidate suppliers up to 1 million dollars.

         -       Recognition of a liability of approximately 17 million dollars
                 of AUVER and in favor of Banco de Comercio Exterior; however,
                 TNG made negotiations with the aforementioned Bank to
                 recognize the liability for $28,740,000, which was capitalized
                 as mentioned below.

         -       Investment in fixed assets as necessary, including the
                 replacement of the dry floating deck.

         -       Dedicate an amount equal to 7.5% of dividends paid to
                 stockholders, if any, over the following ten years after the
                 assignment of the concession rights and obligations of the
                 shipyard, in order to negotiate other liabilities with AUVER
                 creditors.

         The amount of these commitments, including the recognition of the
         indebtedness with CCC referred in the following paragraph, were
         recorded in TNG as preoperative expenses to be amortized on a
         long-term basis.

         The sale of equipment by the Company to TNG negotiated since 1994, in
         the amount of N$29,218,863, was agreed in 1995, obtaining a profit of
         N$20,275,154.  The amount due to the Company was also capitalized as
         part of 40% of the capital stock of TNG.

         The Company is negotiating to sale the investment in shares of this
         associated to other related entity, and estimates that it would not
         have a significant loss derived from this transaction.  Such
         investment was valued at acquisition cost less equity in the loss
         incurred for the nine-month period ended December 31, 1995.
         Management considers that the market value will be sufficient to
         assure the investment in shares and the excess over investment, and
         that a significant loss is not expected from this sale.

         d.      Retained earnings are subject to the following restrictions:

                 -        5% of net income for the year should be appropriated
                          to constitute the legal reserve, until it reaches
                          one-fifth of capital stock.

                 -        The amount of stockholders' contributions and
                          retained earnings pending to be distributed, restated
                          on tax bases, on which income tax has been paid, may
                          be reimbursed or distributed to the stockholders tax
                          free.  Other reimbursements and distributions in
                          excess of these amounts, according to the procedure
                          stipulated by the law, are subject to income tax at
                          the rate of 34% and therefore, stockholders may only
                          dispose of 66% of such amounts.

(10)     Income tax (IT), tax on assets (TA) and tax loss carryforward:
         --------------------------------------------------------------

         In accordance with current tax regulations, companies must pay the
         greater of IT and TA.  Both taxes recognize the effects of inflation,
         although in a different manner than accounting principles generally
         accepted in Mexico.

         The TA Law impose a 1.8% rate (2% as of 1994) on assets restated in
         the case of fixed assets and deducted of some liabilities.

         The TA payable in excess of IT for the year may be recovered in the
         ten succeeding years, restated by inflation, provided that in any such
         years IT exceeds TA.

         Since TA exceeded IT in 1994 and 1993, and due to its uncertain
         recovery, TA payable was charged to operations for the year.
         
         At December 31, 1995 the TA that may be recovered in the future is as
         follows:

                       Notes to the Financial Statements

                  (Mexican pesos of constant purchasing power
                             at December 31, 1995)

         At December 31, 1995 there are net timing differences for a net amount
         of $408,095,696, on which no effect of deferred IT has been recognized
         as it is considered that they do not meet the requirements set forth
         by accounting principles generally accepted in Mexico.  These
         differences may increase the tax basis for future years and refer to
         non taxable revenues from estimations, accruable advances when
         received, advanced deduction of construction costs and other
         provisions.

         In accordance with the IT Law, a tax loss for a period, restated by
         inflation, may be carried forward to the taxable income of the five
         succeeding tax periods, which under certain circumstances may be
         extended to ten year period.  At December 31, 1995 tax loss
         carryforward and the year in which the right of use will expire are as
         follows:

(11)     Contingencies and commitments:
         ------------------------------

         a.  As mentioned in note 1, the Company has no personnel and
             administrative services are rendered by four affiliates which, in
             turn, invoice the Company for payments made to their personnel in
             case of separation, disability or death, as incurred.  The Company
             records the expense on the same bases and does not recognize a
             liability to cover other future labor benefits such as seniority
             premiums, as these are considered immaterial in view of high
             personnel turnover.

         b.  The Company is negotiating to sale the investment in shares of the
             associate Talleres Navales del Golfo, S.  A. de C. V. and the
             result of this transaction is contingent.

         c.  At December 31, 1995 and 1994, the Company is in process of
             reaching an agreement with certain affiliates to determine the
             amount payable for barges leasing and office rental.  The amount
             subject to negotiation, recorded as an affiliates' accounts
             receivable are $31,720,248 and $25,033,494, respectively.

                             at December 31, 1995)

         d.  The Company is forced to guarantee public works bid with PEMEX
             with a bank check in the latters' favor which is neither collected
             nor recorded, for 5% of the total bid.  At December 31, 1995 the
             balance for this concept amounted to $27,900,100.

         e.  The Company is responsible for invoices discounted through
             factoring, amounting to $5,185,094.

         f.  During the normal course of operations, the Company faces several
             contingencies derived from lawsuits filed against it as well as on
             its favor, and which, in the opinion of the legal counsel and
             Company's management, will have no significant effect on the
             financial statements.

                  Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements

                  (Mexican Pesos of Constant Purchasing Power
                  at September 30, 1996, except as indicated)

                                  (Unaudited)


1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION - The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
         statements include the accounts of the Company.  In the opinion of
         management of the Company, all adjustments (such adjustments
         consisting only of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair
         presentation of the operating results for the interim periods
         presented have been included in the unaudited condensed financial
         statements.

2.       CONTINGENCIES - The Company is forced to guarantee public works bid
         with Petroleos Mexicanos ("PEMEX") with a bank check in the latter's
         favor which is neither collected nor recorded, for 5% of the total
         bid.  At September 30, 1996 the balance for this concept amounted to
         approximately $155,506,000.

         In the ordinary course of business, the Company is responsible for
         invoices discounted through factoring.  As of September 30, 1996 there
         were no invoices subject to factoring.

         During the normal course of operations, the Company faces several
         contingencies derived from lawsuits filed against it as well as on its
         favor, and which, in the opinion of the legal counsel and Company's
         management, will have no significant effect on the financial
         statements.

3.       SUBSEQUENT EVENTS - During October 1996 the Company sold its
         investment in shares of the associate Talleres Navales del Golfco,
         S.A. de C.V. for $94,375,000 and recognized a loss on the disposition
         approximating $16,000,000.  Included under the caption "equity in the
         results of associated company" for 1996 is a charge of $16,000,000 to
         recognize the loss as of September 30, 1996.

         On December 23, 1996 Global Industries, Ltd. ("Global") acquired from
         J. Ray McDermott, S.A. a 49% ownership interest in the Company.
         Coincident with the acquisition, Global (i) loaned US $23.0 million to
         the Company to repay US $15.0 million of existing bank indebtedness
         and for working capital needs and (ii) provided performance guarantees
         supporting approximately US $50.0 million of the Company's existing
         indebtedness primarily relating to construction projects in progress.
