Report Of Independent Auditors


The Thrift Plan Committee
Thrift Plan of Phillips Petroleum Company


We have audited the financial statements of the Thrift Plan of
Phillips Petroleum Company (Plan) listed in the accompanying
index to financial statements and schedules.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Thrift Plan Committee
(Committee).  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.  Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An
audit includes 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 the Committee, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements listed in the
accompanying index to financial statements and schedules present
fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for
benefits of the Plan at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the
changes in net assets available for plan benefits for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The accompanying
supplemental schedules of assets held for investment purposes as
of December 31, 1993, and reportable transactions for the year
ended December 31, 1993, are presented for the purposes of
complying with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations
for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements.  The supplemental schedules have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the
1993 financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated
in all material respects in relation to the 1993 basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

Notes To Financial Statements             Thrift Plan Of Phillips
                                                Petroleum Company


Note 1--Plan Description

The following description of the Thrift Plan of Phillips Petroleum
Company (Plan) is subject to and qualified by the more complete
information appearing in the Plan document.  The Plan was known as
the Thrift Plan of Phillips Petroleum Company and Subsidiary
Companies until June 10, 1992.  Beginning January 1, 1993, changes
were made to the Plan to add new investment funds and provide
participants with more flexibility in directing their savings
investments.

The Plan is a defined contribution plan available to certain
employees of Phillips Petroleum Company and participating
subsidiaries (Company).  Generally, any regular employee on the
direct dollar payroll of the Company is eligible to participate.
Non-managerial retail outlet marketing employees are not eligible.
Effective September 16, 1991, certain former employees elected to
transfer assets and liabilities associated with their accounts to
the Applied Automation, Inc. Incentive Savings Plan.  Effective
August 23, 1993, assets and liabilities associated with accounts
from the Salary Reduction Thrift Plan for Employees of Incinatrol,
Inc. were transferred to the Plan.

The Company has a trust agreement with Bankers Trust Company, New
York, New York (Trustee).  Plan investments are held by the
Trustee.  Through December 31, 1992, WestStar Bank, N.A.,
Bartlesville, Oklahoma, was the investment manager for Fund A of
the Plan.  Since then, Fund A has been managed by the Trustee,
with Wells Fargo Institutional Trust Company managing Fund A
assets invested in the Wells Fargo Government/Corporate Bond Index
Fund E.

Participants may have up to 15 percent of their pay deposited in
the Plan each month.  The first 5 percent is designated as regular
deposits with any excess being designated as supplemental
deposits.  Deposits may be further designated by a participant as
before-tax or after-tax deposits.  Before-tax deposits are made by
the Company on behalf of a participant who has elected the
before-tax feature of the Plan.  Total deposit amounts and
allocation of deposits between after-tax and before-tax accounts
are subject to limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code.
Participants may change their investment direction and deposit
rate semiannually during designated enrollment periods.  Employee
deposits may be suspended in certain circumstances.

The Company contributes an amount equal to 25 percent of an
employee's regular deposits made to Fund B and 15 percent of
regular deposits made to any other investment fund.


                                 25




Employee and before-tax deposits, and loan repayments are first
placed in the Temporary Investment Fund and invested in certain
specified short-term securities for up to 45 days after receipt by
the Trustee.  Loan repayments and any earnings thereon are
transferred to the Loan Fund and then allocated to Funds A, B, E
or F based on a participant's regular deposits.  Employee deposits
and the earnings thereon are paid into Funds A, B, E or F as
directed by the participant, and invested as follows:  Fund A
(prior to January 1, 1993, in United States government securities;
after December 31, 1992, in the commingled Wells Fargo
Government/Corporate Bond Index Fund E managed by Wells Fargo
Institutional Trust Company), Fund B (common stock of Phillips
Petroleum Company), Fund E (after December 31, 1992, in the
commingled BT Pyramid Equity Index Fund managed by Bankers Trust
Company) and Fund F (effective July 1, 1993, in the BT Pyramid
Discretionary Cash Fund, a commingled money market fund managed by
Bankers Trust Company).  After June 30, 1993, Fund D (investment
contracts which guarantee repayment of principal invested and a
fixed rate of interest) no longer accepts deposits.  Fund E held
Phillips debt securities until March 15, 1992, when Phillips
redeemed all of its 13 7/8 percent senior notes due in 1997 and 14
3/4 percent subordinated debentures due in 2000, the proceeds
being reinvested by the Plan in Fund B at that time.  Company
matching contributions are invested in Fund C (common stock of
Phillips Petroleum Company).  The Loan Fund is used to record
transactions resulting from loans made to active employees against
their accounts.  Except for the Temporary Investment Fund and the
Loan Fund, the interest of participants in each fund is
represented by units allocated to them.

The Plan provides for transfers among funds; however, plan
participants may not direct transfers to Fund C, the Loan Fund, or
the Temporary Investment Fund.  Transfers to Fund D were permitted
only in certain circumstances until June 15, 1993, but due to
restrictions required by the insurance companies, transfers were
not allowed out of Fund D after January 15, 1993. Beginning in
1993, monthly transfers were allowed between investment funds,
except as mentioned above.

A participant is vested at all times with respect to his deposits.
Generally, a participant is vested with respect to his interest in
Company contributions (a) if he has made, or has had made on his
behalf, regular deposits for 12 months; (b) upon retirement
pursuant to a Company retirement plan; (c) upon death; (d) upon
becoming totally and permanently disabled; (e) upon reaching age
65; (f) upon being laid off; or (g) upon completion of five years
of vesting service.

Generally a participant may, as of any valuation date, withdraw
any portion of his vested interest in his after-tax account.  A
participant may not withdraw his interest in his before-tax
account unless he is at least age 59 1/2, experiences a specified
financial hardship, becomes totally and permanently disabled, or
separates from service.



                                 26




Forfeitures arising from nonvested withdrawals are used to reduce
future Company contributions.  Forfeitures may be restored under
certain circumstances if the participant later repays the amount
withdrawn.

Distributions occur upon separation from service, but may be
deferred.  For a participant who retires or becomes totally
disabled, distribution may be deferred to a date not later than
February of the year after the year age 70 1/2 is attained.  If
the participant dies, distribution to a surviving spouse
beneficiary may be deferred to the second valuation date prior to
the date on which the participant would have attained age 70 1/2.
This deferral is revocable by the participant or the surviving
spouse.  Distributions to non-spouse beneficiaries may be deferred
approximately five years.  Distributions are based on the
valuation of the participant's interest in the trust fund.
Available forms of distribution are:

     (a) from Funds A, D, E or F in cash (distributions from
         Fund F were not available until 1993);

     (b) from Funds B and C in whole shares of common stock and/or
         cash;

     (c) with respect to a participant who retires under a Company
         retirement plan or a beneficiary spouse of a participant
         in the event of an active employee participant's death,
         in the form of an irrevocable nontransferable monthly
         annuity purchased with a specified dollar amount of the
         participant's interest in the Plan; and

     (d) with respect to a participant who retires before July 1,
         1992, under a Company retirement plan, monthly, quarterly
         or annual payments irrevocably elected from his interest
         in Fund D commencing at retirement with, at the
         participant's direction, a designated life interest
         beneficiary to receive any unpaid scheduled payments
         following the participant's death.

Since January 1, 1993, a participant may elect a direct rollover
of the taxable portion of most distributions to an Individual
Retirement Account or another tax-qualified plan.  The taxable
portion of any such distribution that is not rolled over directly
will be subject to 20 percent federal withholding.

The Plan is administered by a Thrift Plan Committee, the members
of which are appointed by the Board of Directors of Phillips
Petroleum Company.  The Plan Financial Administrator and Plan
Benefits Administrator are the persons who occupy, respectively,
the Phillips Petroleum Company positions of Risk Management and
Investment Manager, and Compensation and Benefits Manager.
Members of the Committee and the Plan Administrators serve without
compensation, but are reimbursed by the Company for necessary
expenditures incurred in the discharge of their duties.


                                 27




The Plan pays all reasonable expenses necessary for the operation
of the Plan unless such expenses are paid by the Company.  Prior
to 1993, the Company paid all expenses other than brokerage fees,
commissions, stock transfer taxes and other charges and expenses
incurred in connection with the purchase or sale of securities
which were paid by the Plan.  Such expenses include a fee of 0.15
percent of the funds invested in the insured contracts in Fund D,
and the guaranteed rates for these contracts will be reduced by
such amount if the Company declines to pay these fees.  Effective
January 1, 1993, the Company began paying only the Trustee's
recordkeeping and accounting fees and the class year contract
administration fees.

The Company intends to continue the Plan indefinitely, but
reserves the right to amend or terminate it at any time.  In the
event of termination of the Plan each participant will become
fully vested.


Note 2--Investments

All securities are valued at their quoted market price or, with
respect to units of participation in commingled funds, redemption
value.  Insurance contracts are valued pursuant to their terms;
the value represents fund deposits plus interest credited less
distributions.  Participant loans are valued at cost, which
approximates fair value.

Note 5--Loan Fund

Since July 1, 1993, the Plan has allowed loans to active
employees or parties in interest from their accounts.  The
minimum loan is $1,000, and generally the maximum is the lesser
of $50,000 or half a participant's vested account.  The loans may
extend for up to 60 months (180 months for a home loan) with a
rate of interest equal to the national prime lending rate, as
determined on the regular valuation date prior to the date of a
loan application.  No more than one home loan and two regular
loans may be outstanding at any given time.


                                 29





Loan payments and interest are repaid to the borrowing
participant's accounts through the Loan Fund, which records the
outstanding loans and related transactions.  Repayments are
allocated to Funds A, B, E or F based on a participant's regular
deposits.  For the period ended December 31, 1993, the total of
loans made by fund of origin, principal repaid, and aggregate
outstanding loan balance were:

                                 Thousands of Dollars

Note 7--Credit Facility

Effective July 14, 1993, the Plan established a 364-day
$50 million revolving credit facility with NationsBank of Texas,
N.A., for the purpose of financing net Fund B and Fund C
distributions, participant loans from the Plan, or transfer of
participants' interests to other funds of the Plan.  The interest
rate may not exceed the Eurodollar interbank offered rate plus
0.25%.  On December 31, 1993, no portion of this credit facility
was outstanding.

Effective June 17, 1994, this credit facility was reduced to
$25 million.  The Plan Trustee requested that the credit facility
be renewed for this reduced amount for an additional year.


Note 8--Transactions with Parties-in-Interest

During 1993, 1992 and 1991, the Plan received $26,079,000,
$30,231,000 and $30,513,000, respectively, in common stock
dividends from the Company.  Fees paid for legal, accounting, and
other services rendered by parties-in-interest were based on
customary and reasonable rates for such services.


Note 9--Taxes

The Internal Revenue Service has determined that the Plan, as
amended through December 5, 1990, is qualified under Section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and the Trust is
exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a).  Subsequent
amendments are not expected to affect the qualified status of the
Plan.  The Committee is not aware of any activity that would
affect the qualified status of the Plan.
