                      GIVING EFFECT TO THE PROPERTY SALES
        NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                   (dollars in thousands, except share data)


Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

   The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements give effect to:

     (1) the sale of the Brushy Creek Field and Texan Gardens Field interests to
         ANR for $15,980.

     (2) the use of proceeds from the sale of Brushy Creek Field and Texan
         Gardens Field interests.

   These unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are not
necessarily indicative of the results which would have actually been obtained
had all the transactions referred to above occurred on such dates.  They should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related
notes contained in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March
31, 1999 and the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31,
1998.

   The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information has been prepared
in accordance with published guidelines of the SEC regarding pro forma financial
information. Neither KPMG LLP, our independent auditors, nor any other
independent accountant or financial advisor, examined or performed any
procedures with respect to the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial
information, and they (1) express no opinion or any other form of assurances
with respect to such information and (2) assume no responsibility for, and
disclaim any association with, the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial
information.

Note 2 - Adjustments

   The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet presents the consolidated
balance sheet of Southern Mineral as if the above transactions were consummated
on March 31, 1999. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations
present the consolidated statements of operations of Southern Mineral for the
three-months ended March 31, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998, as if
the above transactions had occurred on January 1, 1998. The unaudited pro forma
consolidated statements of operations detail the elimination of revenues and
costs related to sale and disposal of the Brushy Creek Field and Texan Gardens
Field interests and the reduction in interest expense attributable to the sale
of the Brushy Creek Field and Texan Gardens Field interests.
