1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Interim Financial Statements

     These  financial  statements  and  the  notes  thereto  should  be  read in
conjunction  with the  Company's  annual  report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997. Any capitalized  items used but not defined in these Notes to
Consolidated  Financial  Statements  have the same meaning  given to them in the
Form 10-K.

     Accounting   measurements  at  interim  dates  inherently  involve  greater
reliance on  estimates  then at year end and the results of  operations  for the
interim periods shown in this report are not  necessarily  indicative of results
to be expected  for the fiscal  year.  In the opinion of  management  of Denbury
Resources  Inc.  (the  "Company"  or  "Denbury"),   the  accompanying  unaudited
consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (of a normal recurring
nature) necessary to present fairly the consolidated  financial  position of the
Company as of June 30, 1998 and the  consolidated  results of its operations for
the three and six months  ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 and its cash flow for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.

Net Income and Loss per Common Share

     Net income or loss per common  share is computed by dividing the net income
or loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. In
accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"),  the
stock  options and warrants were  included in the  calculation  of fully diluted
earnings  per share but were  anti-dilutive  to the  calculation  of losses  per
share.

3. DIFFERENCES IN GENERALLY  ACCEPTED  ACCOUNTING  PRINCIPLES BETWEEN CANADA AND
THE UNITED STATES

     The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
Canadian GAAP. The primary  difference  between Canadian and U.S. GAAP affecting
the Company's 1998 financial  statements  result from the different  methodology
for computing  fully diluted  earnings or losses per common share.  For Canadian
purposes,  the proceeds from dilutive  securities are used to reduce debt in the
calculation.  Under U.S.  GAAP,  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards
("SFAS")  No.  128  requires  the  proceeds  from  such  instruments  be used to
repurchase  Common  Shares.  However,  for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997,  the  earnings  and losses per share were the same under
U.S. and Canadian GAAP.

                             June 30, 1998 and 1997

     The U.S.  full cost  accounting  rules differ from the  Canadian  full cost
accounting  guidelines followed by the Company. In determining the limitation on
carrying  values,  U.S.  accounting  rules require the  discounting of estimated
future net  revenues  from its proved  reserves  at 10% using  constant  current
prices  following  the  guidelines  of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission
("SEC")  while the  Canadian  guidelines  require the use of the same future net
revenues  but on an  undiscounted  basis and after the  deduction  of  estimated
future  administrative and financing costs. The Canadian  accounting  guidelines
also  allow a Company to  exclude  acquired  properties  from the  ceiling  test
calculation  for up to two years while the SEC allows an exclusion  for only one
year and then only after  obtaining  approval.  See also "Note 4.  Property  and
Equipment"  for a discussion  of the  application  of these rules on the ceiling
test calculation.

     In June 1998,  the FASB  issued SFAS No. 133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative
Instruments  and  Hedging  Activities"  (the  "Statement"),   which  establishes
standards for accounting and reporting derivative  instruments.  SFAS No. 133 is
effective  for  periods  beginning  after  June  15,  1999;   however,   earlier
application is permitted. Management is currently not planning on early adoption
of this  Statement and has not had an  opportunity to evaluate the impact of the
provisions of the Statement on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

4.  PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     As further discussed in Note 3, the Canadian accounting  guidelines allow a
Company to exclude acquired  properties from the ceiling test calculation for up
to two years while the SEC allows an  exclusion  for only one year and then only
after obtaining approval. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company obtained
approval from the SEC for an exclusion of the Heidelberg  Field acquired late in
1997. This exclusion was allowed because the Company believed that, based on its
success with similar  properties  in  Mississippi,  the value of the  Heidelberg
Field  acquired  from  Chevron  and  other  entities  was at least  equal to its
carrying cost. Had this property been included in the ceiling test  calculation,
the Company  would have had a writedown  of the  property  carrying  costs as of
March 31, 1998 of approximately $35 million for both U.S. and Canadian GAAP.

     Since the first  quarter,  oil prices have continued to decline with a drop
of  approximately  $1.45 in the NYMEX oil price from March 31 to June 30,  1998.
Furthermore,  the gap  between  the NYMEX oil price and the net field  price has
widened since the first of 1998,  causing the net oil price at Heidelberg  Field
to drop  approximately  $1.00 per barrel  ("Bbl")  more than the  decline in the
NYMEX price.  Due to the  continued  low oil prices,  in June,  1998 the Company
announced that it was reducing its  developmental  drilling activity and capital
expenditure budget on its oil properties,  including Heidelberg Field, until oil
product prices recover. As a result of this curtailment, it is unlikely that the
proved  reserves and  production  from this property will increase as quickly as
originally  anticipated,  thus  causing a decline in the  current  value of this
property.  Therefore,  as of  June  30,  1998,  the  Company  has  included  the
Heidelberg  Field in the full cost pool for its ceiling test which resulted in a
$165 million writedown of the full cost pool as of the same date. Of this total,
$106 million  resulted  from the inclusion of the  Heidelberg  Field in the full
cost pool and $28 million relates to an impairment of the  unevaluated  carrying
cost on this same  field.  As  required  by U.S.  GAAP,  this  ceiling  test was
computed  using June 30, 1998 prices which were  equivalent to a NYMEX oil price
of $14.00 per Bbl and an average net realized  oil price of $8.90 per Bbl.  This
writedown was approximately the same for both U.S. and Canadian GAAP.

6.  PRODUCT PRICE HEDGING CONTRACTS

     During  June and  July,  1998,  the  Company  entered  into  two  financial
contracts  ("collars")  to hedge a total of 40 million cubic feet of natural gas
per day  ("MMcf/d").  The first  natural gas contract  for 35 MMcf/d  covers the
period  from July 1998 to June 1999 and has a floor  price of $1.90 per  million
British  Thermal Units  ("MMBtu")  and a ceiling  price of $2.96 per MMBtu.  The
second  natural gas  contract for five MMcf/d  covers the period from  September
1998 to August 1999 and has a floor price of $1.90 per MMBtu and a ceiling price
of $2.89 per MMBtu.  These contracts cover over 90% of the Company's current net
natural gas production.

                             DENBURY RESOURCES INC.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                        
     The following  should be read in  conjunction  with the response to Part I,
Item 1 of this Report and Items 7 and 8 of the Form 10-K. Any capitalized  terms
used but not  defined  in this Item have the same  meaning  given to them in the
Form 10-K.

     Denbury  is  an  independent   energy  company   engaged  in   acquisition,
development and exploration activities in the U.S. Gulf Coast region,  primarily
onshore in Louisiana and  Mississippi.  Over the last few years, the Company has
achieved  rapid  growth  in  proved  reserves,   production  and  cash  flow  by
concentrating   on  the  acquisition  of  properties   which  it  believes  have
significant upside potential and through the efficient development,  enhancement
and operation of those properties.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

     Due to the drop and continued low oil prices,  the Company's  cash flow and
earnings have been significantly reduced. As more fully described under "Results
of  Operations",  between the first half of 1997 and 1998, the Company's net oil
product  prices have decreased 39% ($7.11 per barrel of oil ("Bbl")) and natural
gas product prices have declined by 8% ($0.22 per thousand cubic feet of natural
gas ("Mcf")). In response to the decline in oil prices, the Company announced in
June 1998 that it was  curtailing  the  horizontal  drilling  program on its oil
properties and generally focusing on projects that may impact future years, such
as  expenditures on facilities,  waterflood  units,  and a few higher  potential
projects.  This  modification  in the  development  program was also done at the
Heidelberg  Field  in  Mississippi,  a  property  acquired  from  Chevron  (with
additional  minor  interests  from other third parties) for over $200 million in
December,  1997  (the  "Chevron  Acquisition").  In  contrast,  the  Company  is
attempting to escalate its development on its natural gas properties and as part
of its normal operations, continuing to look at potential acquisitions.

     Under full cost accounting  rules,  each quarter the Company is required to
perform a ceiling test  calculation.  In determining  the limitation on carrying
values,  U.S.  accounting  rules require the discounting of estimated future net
revenues from its proved reserves at 10% using constant current prices following
the  guidelines  of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC") while the
Canadian  guidelines  require the use of the same future net  revenues but on an
undiscounted  basis and after the deduction of estimated  future  administrative
and financing costs. The Canadian accounting  guidelines also allow a Company to
exclude  acquired  properties  from the ceiling test  calculation  for up to two
years  while the SEC allows an  exclusion  for only one year and then only after
obtaining approval. The Company obtained approval for such an exclusion from the
SEC and  excluded  Heidelberg  Field from the full cost ceiling test as of March
31, 1998 as it believed  that,  based on its success with similar  properties in
Mississippi, the value of this property was at least equal to its carrying cost.
As of March 31,  1998,  the  inclusion of  Heidelberg  Field in the ceiling test
would have resulted in a $35 million writedown.

     Since that date,  the oil prices have  continued  to decline with a drop of
approximately  $1.45 in the  NYMEX  oil price  from  March 31 to June 30,  1998.
Furthermore,  the gap between the NYMEX oil price and the net realized price has
widened  since the first of 1998,  causing the net realized  price at Heidelberg
Field to drop  approximately  $1.00 per Bbl more than the  decline  in the NYMEX
price.  As previously  discussed,  due to the continued low oil prices,  in June
1998 the Company  announced  that it was  reducing  its  drilling  activity  and
capital  expenditure budget on its oil properties,  including  Heidelberg Field,
until  oil  product  prices  recover.  As a result  of this  curtailment,  it is
unlikely  that the  proved  reserves  and  production  from this  property  will
increase as quickly as  originally  anticipated,  thus  causing a decline in the
current value of this property.  Therefore, as of June 30, 1998, the Company has
included the  Heidelberg  Field in the full cost pool for its ceiling test which
resulted in a $165 million  writedown of the full cost pool as of the same date.
Of this total,  $106 million resulted from the inclusion of the Heidelberg Field
in  the  full  cost  pool  and  $28  million  relates  to an  impairment  of the
unevaluated  carrying cost on this same field.  As required by U.S.  GAAP,  this
ceiling test was computed using June 30, 1998 prices which were  equivalent to a
NYMEX oil price of $14.00 per Bbl and an average net realized oil price of $8.90
per Bbl. This writedown was approximately

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

the same for both U.S. and Canadian GAAP.  Although this  writedown  reduced the
Company's capital below the threshold  required by the Company's banks (see also
"Restated  Credit  Facility" below) and required the Company to obtain a waiver,
these  charges are non-cash  items and should not have any direct  impact on the
Company's liquidity.

     As of June 30,  1998,  the  Company had minimal  working  capital  with $70
million of bank debt outstanding ($80 million  outstanding as of July 31, 1998),
$125  million  outstanding  on its Notes and $95 million  available  on its bank
credit line. During the first half of 1998, the Company spent  approximately $63
million on development and  exploration  and $13 million on acquisitions  with a
current  development  and  exploration  budget  for 1998 of  approximately  $100
million.  Although the spending level is almost the same as the original budget,
the focus has changed from horizontal  drilling on Mississippi oil properties to
expenditures on leasehold,  seismic,  injection wells and other facility work in
both  Mississippi and Louisiana and projected  increased  drilling  expenditures
during  the last  half of 1998 in  Louisiana.  A  substantial  portion  of these
expenditures  are directed to long term projects and are not expected to provide
benefit to the Company until 1999 and beyond.  Although the Company's  projected
cash flow is highly  variable  and  difficult  to predict as it is  dependent on
product  prices,  drilling  success and other factors,  the Company's  projected
expenditures  for the remainder of the year are expected to exceed the Company's
cash flow  during  that  period and thus the  Company  will use a portion of its
remaining  bank line  availability.  This  capital  budget  will  continue to be
reviewed on a regular basis and may be reduced, depending on oil and natural gas
prices and the  availability  of capital,  to a level more in line with expected
cash flow. Such a decrease in expenditures would have a corresponding  reduction
in anticipated production levels and related cash flow.

     The banks are beginning their regular  semi-annual  review of the Company's
borrowing  base.  This review will be based on June 30, 1998 assets and reserves
and will be  completed  late in the  third  quarter.  As of June 30,  1998,  the
Company had $70 million  outstanding on its bank credit facility ($80 million as
of July 31, 1998) against a total  borrowing  base of $165  million.  Due to the
drop in oil prices,  it is  probable  that the  borrowing  base will be reduced;
however,  it is  unlikely  that it will be  reduced  to the point  that it would
require an immediate  repayment on the loan due to an over  advance,  nor is any
borrowing  base  reduction  expected  to have a direct  impact on the  Company's
current  plans  and  budget.   However,   a  significant   reduction  in  credit
availability could force the Company to reduce its capital  expenditure  program
in  order  to  remain  in  compliance  with  its  bank   agreement,   causing  a
corresponding  reduction in anticipated production levels and related cash flow.
Oil prices have also deteriorated further since June 30, 1998 and if they do not
recover,  the Company may incur  additional  ceiling  test  writedowns  and have
further violations of its bank debt covenants.

     In addition to its internal capital  expenditure  program,  the Company has
historically required capital for the acquisition of producing properties, which
have been a major factor in the  Company's  rapid growth  during  recent  years.
There can be no assurance that suitable  acquisitions  will be identified in the
future,  that any such  acquisitions  will be  successful  in achieving  desired
profitability objectives or that the Company will have capital available to fund
such  acquisitions.  Without  suitable  acquisitions or the capital to fund such
acquisitions, the Company's future growth could be limited or even eliminated.

     In further response to the decline in oil prices and to mitigate additional
price-related  negative  effects on the  Company's  cash flow, in June and July,
1998, the Company  entered into two financial  contracts  ("collars") to hedge a
total of 40 million cubic feet of natural gas per day  ("MMcf/d") of natural gas
production.  The first natural gas contract for 35 MMcf/d covers the period from
July  1998 to June  1999  and has a floor  price of $1.90  per  million  British
Thermal  Units  ("MMBtu")  and a ceiling  price of $2.96 per  MMBtu.  The second
natural gas contract for five MMcf/d  covers the period from  September  1998 to
August  1999 and has a floor  price of $1.90 per  MMBtu  and a ceiling  price of
$2.89 per MMBtu.  These  contracts  cover over 90% of the Company's  current net
natural gas production.

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Restated Credit Facility

     The Company has a credit facility (the "Credit  Facility") with NationsBank
of Texas,  N.A.,  as agent and part of a group of eight other banks.  The Credit
Facility  was  increased  in size from $150  million to $300 million in December
1997 and the  borrowing  base was increased to $260 million in order to fund the
Chevron  Acquisition.  The December 31, 1997 outstanding balance of $240 million
was reduced to $40 million as of February 26, 1998 after  application of the net
proceeds from the Debt and Equity  Offerings and the TPG Purchase  (collectively
the "Capital Transactions" as herein defined), net of $9.8 million of additional
borrowings.

     The Credit Facility consists of a five-year  revolving credit facility with
a  borrowing  base  (after  the  Capital  Transactions)  of $165  million.  This
borrowing base is subject to review every six months and the Credit  Facility is
secured by  substantially  all of the Company's oil and natural gas  properties,
except for those acquired in the Chevron Acquisition. Interest is payable on the
revolving  credit  facility  at  either  the  prime  rate or,  depending  on the
percentage  of the  borrowing  base that is  outstanding,  at rates ranging from
LIBOR  plus  7/8%  to  LIBOR  plus  13/8%.   The  Credit  Facility  has  several
restrictions,  including,  among  others:  (i) a  prohibition  on the payment of
dividends;  (ii) a requirement for a minimum equity balance; (iii) a requirement
to maintain positive working capital (as defined in the Credit Agreement);  (iv)
a minimum  interest  coverage test; and (v) a prohibition on most debt, lien and
corporate guarantees.

     As  previously  discussed in "Capital  Resources and  Liquidity",  the next
credit  review of the  borrowing  base will be based on June 30, 1998 assets and
reserves and will be  completed  late in the third  quarter.  As a result of the
non-cash  writedown  of oil and natural gas  properties  at June 30,  1998,  the
Company did default on the minimum equity  requirements  in the loan  agreement.
The Company  has  received a waiver of such  requirement  and amended the equity
requirement section of the bank agreement.

1998 Public Debt and Equity Offering

     On  February  26,  1998,  the Company  closed its public sale of  5,240,780
Common Shares (which included the underwriter's over-allotment option of 683,580
Common  Shares) at a price of $16.75 per share and a net price to the Company of
$15.955  per  share  (the  "Equity  Offering").  Concurrently  with  the  Equity
Offering,  affiliates of the Texas Pacific Group ("TPG"),  the Company's largest
shareholder,  purchased  313,400  Common  Shares from the Company at $15.955 per
share,  equal to the price to the public per share less  underwriting  discounts
and commissions (the "TPG  Purchase").  The net proceeds to the Company from the
Equity  Offering and TPG  Purchase  were  approximately  $88.6  million,  before
offering expenses.

     Concurrently with the Equity Offering and TPG Purchase,  Denbury Management
Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $125 million in aggregate
principal amount of 9% Senior  Subordinated  Notes Due 2008 (the "Debt Offering"
and  the  "Notes").  These  Notes  contain  certain  debt  covenants,  including
covenants  that  limit  (i)  indebtedness,   (ii)  certain  payments   including
dividends, (iii) sale/leaseback transactions, (iv) transactions with affiliates,
(v) liens,  (vi) asset  sales,  and (vii)  mergers and  consolidations.  The net
proceeds  to the  Company  from  the Debt  Offering  were  approximately  $121.8
million, before offering expenses.

     The total net proceeds  from the debt and equity  offerings  (the  "Capital
Transactions")  were  approximately  $209.5  million  after  deducting the total
offering  expenses  of  $900,000.  The  Company  used these  proceeds  to reduce
outstanding borrowings under the Company's bank credit facility, the majority of
which had been  borrowed to fund the December 1997 $202 million  acquisition  of
properties from Chevron (the "Chevron Acquisition").

Sources and Uses of Funds

     During  the first  half of 1998,  the  Company  spent  approximately  $63.1
million on  exploration  and  development  activities  and  approximately  $13.2
million on acquisitions.  The exploration and development  expenditures included
approximately  $38.0  million spent on drilling,  $14.1  million on  geological,
geophysical and acreage  expenditures and $11.0 million on workover costs. These
expenditures were funded by bank debt and cash flow from operations.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     During  the first  half of 1997,  the  Company  spent  approximately  $32.6
million on oil and natural gas  development  activities and  approximately  $3.5
million on acquisitions.  The development  expenditures  included  approximately
$18.5 million spent on drilling,  $4.3 million on  geological,  geophysical  and
acreage  expenditures  and the  balance of $9.8  million  was spent on  workover
costs.  These  expenditures  were  funded by  available  cash and cash flow from
operations.

Acquisition Updates

     On December 30, 1997, the Company acquired oil properties in the Heidelberg
Field, Jasper County, Mississippi,  from Chevron for approximately $202 million,
plus other minor interests from other third parties  (collectively  the "Chevron
Acquisition"). The Chevron Acquisition represents the largest acquisition by the
Company to date. The average net daily production from these  properties  during
the  fourth  quarter  of 1997 was  approximately  2,800  barrels  of oil per day
("Bbls/d") and 650 thousand cubic feet of natural gas per day ("Mcf/d").  During
the  first  half  of  1998,  the  average  net  daily  production  increased  to
approximately 3,285 BOE/d and was approximately 4,100 BOE/d as of June 30, 1998.
This increase  resulted  primarily  from 8 horizontal  wells drilled  during the
first six months;  however,  as a result of the low oil prices,  the Company has
postponed the drilling of 14 other horizontal wells originally  planned for this
year. Because of this reduction in planned drilling expenditures, the production
is not expected to materially change at Heidelberg Field during the remainder of
1998. The Company is still planning on spending approximately $10 to $15 million
on this field during the remainder of the year, but these are expenditures which
primarily relate to the East Heidelberg waterflood unit and other facilities and
expenditures  which are not expected to have any material  impact on  production
rates until 1999 or beyond.

     The Company  completed  several  property  acquisitions  during  1996,  the
largest  of  which  was  the  acquisition  of  producing  oil  and  natural  gas
properties,  principally in Mississippi and Louisiana,  for approximately  $37.2
million from Amerada Hess, effective May 1, 1996 (the "Hess  Acquisition").  The
average daily  production from the properties  included in the Hess  Acquisition
during May and June 1996, the first two months of ownership,  was  approximately
2,945 BOE/d.  The average daily  production on these properties had increased to
5,969 BOE/d  during the fourth  quarter of 1997 and 9,563 BOE/d during the first
half of 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                                Operating Income

     While  production  volumes  were 69% higher on a BOE basis during the first
half of 1998 as compared to the first half of 1997,  operating  income increased
only 7% due to a 29% decline in product prices (on a BOE basis), as set forth in
the following chart.

     The  production  increases  were  fueled by both  internal  growth from the
Company's  development  and  exploration  programs and from the  acquisition  of
producing  properties  during  1997,  particularly  the Chevron  Acquisition  in
December 1997. The properties  included in the Chevron  Acquisition  contributed
approximately  2,990 BOE/d to the increase  during the first quarter of 1998 and
3,575  BOE/d  during  the  second  quarter of 1998,  with the  remainder  of the
increase  almost  solely as a result of internal  development,  primarily on the
properties  acquired  in the Hess  Acquisition.  During  the  first  and  second
quarters of 1998, the production from these Hess properties averaged 9,390 BOE/d
and 9,730 BOE/d respectively, a 114% and 111% increase from the average of 4,385
BOE/d and 4,613 BOE/d during the comparable periods of 1997.

     Oil  and gas  revenue  increased  as a  result  of the  large  increase  in
production, although the revenue increase was not proportional to the production
increase due to a substantial  decline primarily in oil, but also in natural gas
product prices.  Between the second quarter of 1997 and 1998, oil product prices
decreased  38% ($6.42 per Bbl) while  natural  gas  product  prices  were almost
identical  during  the two  periods  (at  approximately  $2.29  per  Mcf).  When
comparing the prices for the comparable  six month  periods,  oil product prices
decreased  39% ($7.11 per Bbl) and  natural gas  product  prices  declined by 8%
($0.22 per Mcf).

     Production and operating expenses increased between 1997 and 1998 primarily
due to an increase in the number of properties, with the largest increase coming
from the addition of properties acquired in the Chevron Acquisition. Even though
the  number of  properties  increased,  production  increased  at a faster  pace
allowing the Company to reduce its  production  and operating  expenses on a BOE
basis by 6% from the second  quarter of 1997 to the  comparable  quarter in 1998
and 8% when  comparing the first half of 1998 to the first half of 1997. For the
properties  acquired in the Hess  Acquisition,  the operating  expenses declined
from the 1996 level of $5.35 per BOE to $4.56 per BOE for 1997 and were  further
reduced  to  $3.12  for the  first  half of  1998.  This  reduction  is  largely
attributable  to the  Company's  emphasis  in 1997 and early 1998 on  horizontal
drilling on these  properties  and the resultant  increases in  production.  The
Company has been able to achieve these reductions in operating  expenses per BOE
even though the Company's  production has become even more weighted  towards oil
(which has higher operating costs) with approximately 70% of the Company's first
half 1998 production coming from oil as compared to 57% during the first half of
1997. The operating expenses per BOE for the properties  acquired in the Chevron
Acquisition  averaged  $5.31 per BOE for the first half of 1998,  a  significant
decline from the average of approximately $6.38 per BOE when the properties were
owned by Chevron.

                       General and Administrative Expenses

     General and  administrative  ("G&A")  expenses have  increased as set forth
below along with the Company's growth.

</TABLE>

     On a BOE basis,  G&A costs decreased 31% from the second quarter of 1997 to
the  comparable  period in 1998 and 31% when comparing the first half of 1998 to
the first half of 1997,  in part  because  of  increased  production  on both an
absolute  and  per  well  basis.  Furthermore,  the  respective  well  operating
agreements allow the Company,  when it is the operator,  to charge a well with a
specified  overhead rate during the drilling  phase and to also charge a monthly
fixed  overhead  rate for each  producing  well.  As a result  of the  increased
drilling  activity  in early 1998 and the  addition of several  producing  wells
acquired in the  Chevron  Acquisition,  the  percentage  of gross G&A  recovered
through  these  types of  allocations  (listed in the above  table as  "Operator
overhead charges") increased when compared to the corresponding periods in 1997.
During the first half of 1997,  approximately  36% of gross G&A was recovered by
operator  overhead  charges,  while during the first half of 1998 this  recovery
increased to 50%, with similar changes between the respective  second  quarters.
This  significant  increase  in  overhead  recoveries  is not  expected to be as
pronounced during the second half of 1998 as a result of the curtailed  drilling
expenditures on oil properties,  thus reducing the amount of overhead  recovered
from drilling wells which will result in a net increase in future G&A expenses.

virtually all bank debt had been retired  during the fourth quarter of 1996 with
proceeds  from a public  offering of Common  Shares  completed in October  1996.
Conversely,  in December  1997,  the Company  borrowed  $202 million to fund the
Chevron  Acquisition  resulting in $240 million of outstanding  bank debt during
January and most of February 1998. On February 26, 1998 this debt was refinanced
with  proceeds  from the  Capital  Transactions  leaving a bank  balance  of $40
million  for the rest of the first  quarter of 1998,  plus $125  million of debt
from the issuance of the Notes. This bank debt increased to $70

million during the second quarter of 1998 and the Notes were outstanding for the
entire quarter.  These  transactions  resulted in substantially  higher interest
expense  for the  first  half and  second  quarter  of 1998 as  compared  to the
comparable periods of 1997, on both an absolute and BOE basis.

                  Depletion, Depreciation and Site Restoration

     Depletion,  depreciation and amortization ("DD&A") has increased along with
the additional capitalized cost and increased production. DD&A per BOE increased
from $6.50 for 1997 to $7.25 for the first half of 1998 primarily as a result of
the decline in oil price. The reduced oil price causes wells to reach the end of
their  economic  life much  sooner and also  makes  certain  proved  undeveloped
locations  uneconomical,  both of which  reduce  the  reserve  quantities.  This
reduction  due to price  amounted to  approximately  7.2 million Bbls based on a
comparison  with  reserves  calculated  using the December 31, 1997 and June 30,
1998 prices.

     Under full cost accounting  rules,  each quarter the Company is required to
perform a ceiling test calculation.  See "Capital Resources and Liquidity" for a
discussion of the writedown taken as of June 30, 1998.

     The  Company  also  provides  for  the  estimated   future  costs  of  well
abandonment  and  site  reclamation,  net  of  any  anticipated  salvage,  on  a
unit-of-production basis. This provision is included in the DD&A expense.

                                  Income Taxes

     Due to a net  operating  loss of the  U.S.  subsidiary  each  year  for tax
purposes,  the Company  does not have any current tax  provision.  The  deferred
income tax provision as a percentage of net income varies slightly  depending on
the  mix of  Canadian  and  U.S.  expenses.  In  addition,  as a  result  of the
previously  discussed  $165  million  writedown  of  its  oil  and  natural  gas
properties and the resultant net pre-tax loss of $172.2  million,  an income tax
provision  using the  effective  tax rate of 37% would  result in a $48  million
deferred tax asset.  Since the Company  currently  has a large tax net operating
loss, it is uncertain whether this total tax asset could ultimately be realized.
As such,  the Company has  impaired  and reduced the  deferred  tax asset by $13
million, resulting in a net asset of $35 million and a 29% effective tax benefit
rate for the first half of 1998.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                              Results of Operations

     Even though  production  was up during 1998 and most  expenses,  other than
interest expense, have shown a strong improvement on a BOE basis, as a result of
the  decline  in  product  prices,  net  income  and cash flow  from  operations
decreased substantially on both a gross and per share basis between both periods
of 1997 and 1998 as set forth below. In addition,  at June 30, 1998, the Company
incurred a $165 million  non-cash charge to operations to writedown the carrying
value of its oil and natural gas properties as previously discussed.

                             Year 2000 Modifications

     The  Company  is  currently  reviewing  its  computer  systems  in order to
evaluate necessary  modifications for the year 2000 and is also making inquiries
with regard to the systems used by its oil and natural gas  purchasers and other
third  parties that the Company  relies on as part of its normal  business.  The
Company  does not  believe  that it will incur any  material  expenditures,  nor
require any  significant  modifications  to make its internal  systems year 2000
compliant;  however,  it has not yet fully  evaluated the status of  third-party
systems and the effect,  if any, on the Company if  third-party  systems are not
year 2000 compliant.

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                           Forward-Looking Information

     The statements  contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Quarterly
Report")  that  are  not  historical  facts,  including,  but  not  limited  to,
statements  found in this  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of  Financial
Condition and Results of Operations,  are  forward-looking  statements,  as that
term is defined in Section 21E of the  Securities  and Exchange Act of 1934,  as
amended, that involve a number of risks and uncertainties.  Such forward-looking
statements  may be or may concern,  among other  things,  capital  expenditures,
drilling activity, acquisition plans and proposals and dispositions, development
activities, cost savings, production efforts and volumes,  hydrocarbon reserves,
hydrocarbon  prices,  liquidity,   regulatory  matters  and  competition.   Such
forward-looking  statements  generally are  accompanied by words such as "plan,"
"estimate," "expect," "predict," "anticipate,"  "projected," "should," "assume,"
"believe"  or other  words  that  convey  the  uncertainty  of future  events or
outcomes.  Such  forward-looking  information is based upon management's current
plans,  expectations,  estimates and  assumptions  and is subject to a number of
risks  and  uncertainties  that  could   significantly   affect  current  plans,
anticipated  actions,  the timing of such  actions and the  Company's  financial
condition and results of operations. As a consequence, actual results may differ
materially from expectations,  estimates or assumptions  expressed in or implied
by any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. Among the
factors that could cause actual results to differ  materially are:  fluctuations
of the prices  received or demand for the  Company's  oil and natural  gas,  the
uncertainty  of  drilling  results  and reserve  estimates,  operating  hazards,
acquisition  risks,  requirements  for  capital,  general  economic  conditions,
competition and government  regulations,  as well as the risks and uncertainties
discussed in this Quarterly Report, including,  without limitation, the portions
referenced  above,  and the  uncertainties  set  forth  from time to time in the
Company's other public reports, filings and public statements.
