Item 2.      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

J. Ray McDermott, S.A. ("JRM") is a majority  owned subsidiary of  McDermott
International, Inc. ("International").  A significant portion of JRM's revenues
and operating results are derived from its foreign operations.  As a result,
JRM's operations and financial results are affected by international factors,
such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  JRM attempts to minimize
its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates by attempting to
match foreign currency contract receipts with like foreign currency
disbursements. To the extent that it is unable to match the foreign currency
receipts and disbursements related to its contracts, JRM enters into forward
exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency transactions, which reduce the
impact of foreign exchange rate movements on its operating results.

In general, JRM's performance is a function of the level of oil and gas
development activity in the world's major hydrocarbon producing regions.  As a
result, JRM's revenues and profitability reflect some variability associated
with the timing of the completion of significant development projects and the
commencement of others as to which JRM has contracts, as well as the worldwide
volume of projects and their geographic distribution.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 VS. THREE MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 1995

Management's discussion of revenues and operating income is discussed by the
geographic areas presented in the tables below. Other geographic area revenues
include eliminations between geographic areas; and Other geographic area
operating loss includes the amortization of goodwill and
covenants-not-to-compete resulting from JRM's acquisition of Offshore
Pipelines, Inc. during fiscal year 1995.  The three months ended June 30, 1995
have been restated to reflect the allocation of certain expenses from
geographic area operating income (loss) to Corporate G&A Expense to conform to
the presentation at June 30, 1996.

Revenues increased $77,386,000 to $389,189,000, primarily due to higher volume
on offshore and engineering activities in North America, the North Sea and the
Far East, and higher fabrication activity in North America.  These increases
were partially offset by lower procurement revenues in the North Sea as the
B.P. Exploration Foinaven Development program ("Foinaven") west of the
Shetlands in the North Atlantic nears completion.





                                       12
<PAGE>   13
Operating income by geographic area increased $5,562,000 to $21,240,000,
primarily due to higher volume and margins from offshore and engineering
activities in the North Sea and higher volume in fabrication and offshore
activities in North America.  These increases were partially offset by the
completion of former Offshore Pipelines, Inc. contracts in West Africa  last
year and lower leasing activities due to the sale of the DB101 and DB102 to the
HeereMac joint venture in March 1996.

Equity in income (loss) of investees increased $2,196,000 to income of
$1,298,000 from a loss of $898,000, primarily due to improved results of a
Mexican joint venture.  This increase was partially offset by lower results
from the HeereMac and McDermott-ETPM West, Inc. joint ventures.  The revenues
of these two unconsolidated joint ventures declined from $191,919,000 to
$171,353,000, primarily in the Far East and West Africa, partially offset by
increased volume in the North Sea and North America.  The equity income from
these two unconsolidated joint ventures declined from $3,982,000 to a loss of
$1,205,000 as a result of the lower volume and foreign currency transaction
losses in the current period.  There was also higher interest expense on debt
issued by the HeereMac joint venture to finance the purchase of major marine
vessels it had been chartering, including JRM's DB101 and DB102.  Equity income
in the current period also includes income of $2,145,000 from the amortization
of the deferred gain resulting from the sale of the DB101 and DB102 to the
HeereMac joint venture.

Interest income increased $3,127,000 to $3,720,000, primarily due to interest
on the promissory note of $105,000,000 received as part of the consideration
from the sale of the DB101 and DB102 to the HeereMac joint venture.

Interest expense increased $825,000 to $10,173,000, primarily due to changes in
debt obligations and interest rates prevailing thereon.

Other-net income decreased $2,553,000 to $1,199,000 primarily due to minority
shareholder participation in the improved results of the McDermott-ETPM East,
Inc. joint venture and in the results of McDermott Subsea Constructors, Ltd.

The provision for income taxes decreased $1,381,000 to $1,865,000 while income
before the provision for income taxes increased $7,785,000 to $14,298,000.  The
reduction in





                                       13
<PAGE>   14
income taxes is primarily due to a decrease in deemed profit (revenue) basis
taxation and higher non-taxable earnings.  Within these jurisdictions, tax
provisions vary because of nominal rates, allowability of deductions, credits
and other benefits, and tax basis (for example, revenue versus income). These
variances, along with variances in the mix of income within jurisdictions, are
often responsible for shifts in the effective tax rate. As a result of these
factors, the provision for income taxes was 13% of pretax income for the three
months ended June 30, 1996 compared to a provision for income taxes of 50% of
pretax income for the three months ended June 30, 1995.

=============================================================================================================
</TABLE>



In general, JRM's geographic area's are capital intensive and rely on large
contracts for a substantial amount of their revenues.

JRM's consolidated backlog increased to $1,166,591,000 at June 30, 1996 from
$977,896,000 at March 31, 1996, and backlog relating to contracts to be
performed by its unconsolidated joint ventures (not included above) increased
to $1,632,000,000 at June 30, 1996 from $1,374,000,000 at March 31, 1996. JRM
believes its markets are beginning to emerge from the difficult competitive
environment that has put pressure on margins in recent years.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended June 30 ,1996, JRM's cash and cash equivalents
decreased $71,593,000 to $94,815,000 and total debt increased $21,850,000 to
$463,512,000, due to the increase in short-term borrowings of $24,633,000.
During this period, JRM used cash





                                       14
<PAGE>   15
of $63,540,000 in operating activities; $25,681,000 for additions to property,
plant and equipment; and $1,800,000 for cash dividends on preferred stock.

Higher accounts receivable are primarily due to the timing of collections of
contract billings by North American operations and on the Foinaven contract.
Decreases in accrued contract costs were offset by higher accounts payable
related to the Foinaven contract, which is nearing completion.

Expenditures for property, plant and equipment increased $8,601,000 to
$25,681,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, as compared with the same
period last year. In addition to maintaining existing facilities and equipment,
these expenditures included approximately $4,000,000 for the purchase of a
cable lay vessel and $4,370,000 for the installation of a new system to lay
fiber optic cable on this vessel which operates in the North Sea and $5,913,000
to upgrade a marine barge operating in the Gulf of Mexico.  JRM is committed to
make additional expenditures of approximately $10,000,000 on the cable lay
vessel.

At June 30 and March 31, 1996, JRM had available to it various uncommitted
short-term lines of credit from banks totaling $147,402,000 and $142,645,000,
respectively.  Borrowings by JRM against these lines of credit at June 30 and
March 31, 1996 were $109,884,000 and $85,251,000, respectively. JRM also has
available an unsecured and committed revolving credit facility on which no
borrowings were outstanding at June 30 or March 31, 1996.  The maximum amount
available is $150,000,000, but is subject to certain limits (approximately
$120,000,000 was available at June 30, 1996) as a result of an incremental
borrowing capacity covenant in this agreement.  In addition, JRM is restricted,
as a result of the consolidated tangible net worth covenant in this agreement,
in its ability to transfer funds to International and its subsidiaries through
cash dividends (including its annual preferred stock dividends of $7,200,000 on
its Series A Preferred Stock) or through unsecured loans or investments.  As of
June 30, 1996, approximately $15,000,000 of JRM's net assets were not subject
to this restriction.

Working capital increased $7,844,000 to $177,253,000 at June 30, 1996 from
$169,409,000 at March 31, 1996. On July 25, 1996, JRM issued $250,000,000
principal amount of 9.375% Senior Subordinated Notes due in 2006 and received
net proceeds of





                                       15
<PAGE>   16
$244,375,000 which were used primarily to repay the Note Payable to
International (including interest) of approximately $239,000,000.  The
remaining net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.  During the
remainder of fiscal year 1997, JRM expects to obtain funds to meet working
capital, capital expenditure and debt maturity requirements from operating
activities, disposal of non-strategic assets and borrowings under its
short-term lines of credit.  Leasing agreements for equipment, which are
short-term in nature, are not expected to impact JRM's liquidity or capital
resources.  During July 1996, the sale of certain equipment to the HeereMac
joint venture was completed. Prior to this sale, JRM had received $30,000,000
as a deposit in March 1996.

New Accounting Standards

In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1995.  SFAS No. 123 established financial accounting and reporting
standards for stock-based employee compensation plans.  JRM has finalized its
review of the provisions of this statement and has decided to account for stock
option grants in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and make the pro forma information
disclosures required under the new standard.

In June 1996, the FASB issued SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 1996.  SFAS No. 125 established
accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial
assets and extinguishment of liabilities.  This statement also provides
consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are
sales from transfers that are secured borrowings.  JRM has not yet finalized
its review of the impact of this statement, but it is not expected to have a
material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
