Part I
Item 1. Business
General
Southwest Royalties Institutional Income Fund XI-B, L.P. (the "Partnership"
or "Registrant") was organized as a Delaware limited partnership on August
31, 1993. The offering of limited partnership interests began October 25,
1993, as part of a shelf offering registered under the name Southwest
Royalties Institutional 1992-93 Income Program. Minimum capital
requirements for the Partnership were met on December 8, 1993 and concluded
August 20, 1994. The Partnership has no subsidiaries.
As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership had utilized approximately
$2,008,600 of limited partner capital contributions to acquire interests in
oil and gas properties. All excess capital, $89,489, and the associated
organization costs of $3,132, has been distributed to the limited partners
in proportion to their capital contributions as a return of capital.
The principal executive offices of the Partnership are located at 407 N.
Big Spring, Suite 300, Midland, Texas, 79701. The Managing General Partner
of the Partnership, Southwest Royalties, Inc. (the "Managing General
Partner") and its staff of 92 individuals, together with certain
independent consultants used on an "as needed" basis, perform various
services on behalf of the Partnership, including the selection of oil and
gas properties and the marketing of production from such properties. H. H.
Wommack, III, a stockholder, director, President and Treasurer of the
Managing General Partner, is also a general partner. The Partnership has
no employees.
Principal Products, Marketing and Distribution
The Partnership has acquired and holds royalty interest and net profit
interests in oil and gas properties located in New Mexico and Texas. All
activities of the Partnership are confined to the continental United
States. All oil and gas produced from these properties is sold to
unrelated third parties in the oil and gas business.
The revenues generated from the Partnership's oil and gas activities are
dependent upon the current market for oil and gas. With some periodic
exceptions, since the early 1980's, there has been a worldwide oversupply
of oil; therefore, market prices have declined significantly. The prices
received by the Partnership for its oil and gas production depend upon
numerous factors beyond the Partnership's control, including competition,
economic, political and regulatory developments and competitive energy
sources, and make it particularly difficult to estimate future prices for
oil and natural gas.
The year 2000 was a record year for crude oil prices. The world energy
markets witnessed a continuation of the 1999 recovery seeing prices in the
U.S. peak at $37 per barrel in September. Increasing demand and depleting
inventories appeared to be the motivators in crude's dramatic rise. At the
beginning of 2000, U.S. crude oil inventories were approximately 16% lower
than at the beginning of 1999 and summer vacationers made it through a
travel season that saw gasoline prices top $2 per gallon in some U.S.
markets. The lack of crude oil inventory in the U.S. was also magnified by
the colder than normal winter that much of the country experienced.
However, several production increases from OPEC coupled with President
Clinton's release of 30 million barrels of oil from the U.S. Strategic
Petroleum Reserve in September contributed to the slow in prices toward the
end of the year. After averaging $30 per barrel for the year and over $32
from August through November, oil prices closed out the year 2000 at $26.80
per barrel.
Tighter supplies, rising demand, and the return of more seasonal summer and
winter weather catapulted spot gas prices in 2000 to the highest levels
since the market was deregulated in the mid-1980's. Average monthly spot
prices rose an astounding 72.9% over 1999 levels to average $3.77/MMBTU.
The climb in prices was fairly steady throughout the year, with the first-
quarter spot prices averaging $2.44/MMBtu. After the winter season ended
with a huge storage deficit of 306 BCF, a combination of factors
contributed further to the upward trend in spot prices. As the summer
temperatures heated up and the rate of storage injections remained
sluggish, competition for gas supplies became fierce between power
generators and gas utilities attempting to refill storage. Spot prices
really took off in the fourth quarter as competition for storage gas in the
waning days of the refill season became supercharged. And then came weeks
of early heating-season cold, which caused gas utilities to scramble to
meet the heating loads. A year of record high prices was capped off in
December, with spot prices averaging $6.14/MMBtu, more than two-and-a-half
times the previous five-year December average of $2.43/MMBtu.
Following is a table of the ratios of revenues received from oil and gas
production for the last three years:
Oil Gas
2000 39% 61%
1999 46% 54%
1998 46% 54%
As the table indicates, the Partnership's revenue is almost evenly divided
between its oil and gas production. The Partnership revenues will be
highly dependent upon the future prices and demands for oil and gas.
Seasonality of Business
Although the demand for natural gas is highly seasonal, with higher demand
in the colder winter months and in very hot summer months, the Partnership
has been able to sell all of its natural gas, either through contracts in
place or on the spot market at the then prevailing spot market price. As a
result, the volume sold by the Partnership is not expected to fluctuate
materially with the change of season.
Customer Dependence
No material portion of the Partnership's business is dependent on a single
purchaser, or a very few purchasers, where the loss of one would have a
material adverse impact on the Partnership. Three purchasers accounted for
91% of the Partnership's total oil and gas production during 2000: Sid
Richardson Gasoline Co. for 44%, Navajo Refining Company, Inc. for 37% and
Phillips 66 Natural Gas for 10%. Three purchasers accounted for 84% of the
Partnership's total oil and gas production during 1999: Navajo Refining
Company for 40%, Sid Richardson Gasoline Co. for 33% and Phillips 66 for
11%. Two purchasers accounted for 72% of the Partnership's total oil and
gas production during 1998: Navajo Refining Company for 39% and American
Processing for 33%.
All purchasers of the Partnership's oil and gas production are unrelated
third parties. In the event any of these purchasers were to discontinue
purchasing the Partnership's production, the Managing General Partner
believes that a substitute purchaser or purchasers could be located without
undue delay. No other purchaser accounted for an amount equal to or
greater than 10% of the Partnership's sales of oil and gas production.
Competition
Because the Partnership has utilized all of its funds available for the
acquisition of interests in producing oil and gas properties, it is not
subject to competition from other oil and gas property purchasers. See
Item 2, Properties.
Factors that may adversely affect the Partnership include delays in
completing arrangements for the sale of production, availability of a
market for production, rising operating costs of producing oil and gas and
complying with applicable water and air pollution control statutes,
increasing costs and difficulties of transportation, and marketing of
competitive fuels. Moreover, domestic oil and gas must compete with
imported oil and gas and with coal, atomic energy, hydroelectric power and
other forms of energy.
Regulation
Oil and Gas Production - The production and sale of oil and gas is subject
to federal and state governmental regulation in several respects, such as
existing price controls on natural gas and possible price controls on crude
oil, regulation of oil and gas production by state and local governmental
agencies, pollution and environmental controls and various other direct and
indirect regulation. Many jurisdictions have periodically imposed
limitations on oil and gas production by restricting the rate of flow for
oil and gas wells below their actual capacity to produce and by imposing
acreage limitations for the drilling of wells. The federal government has
the power to permit increases in the amount of oil imported from other
countries and to impose pollution control measures. Various aspects of the
Partnership's oil and gas activities will be regulated by administrative
agencies under statutory provisions of the states where such activities are
conducted and by certain agencies of the federal government for operations
on Federal leases. Moreover, certain prices at which the Partnership may
sell its natural gas production are controlled by the Natural Gas Policy
Act of 1978, the Natural Gas Wellhead Decontrol Act of 1989 and the
regulations promulgated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
Environmental - The Partnership's oil and gas activities will be subject to
extensive federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the
generation, storage, handling, emission, transportation and discharge of
materials into the environment. Governmental authorities have the power to
enforce compliance with their regulations, and violations carry substantial
penalties. This regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases
its cost of doing business and consequently affects its profitability. The
Managing General Partner is unable to predict what, if any, effect
compliance will have on the Partnership.
Industry Regulations and Guidelines - Certain industry regulations and
guidelines apply to the registration, qualification and operation of oil
and gas programs in the form of limited partnerships. The Partnership is
subject to these guidelines which regulate and restrict transactions
between the Managing General Partner and the Partnership. The Partnership
complies with these guidelines and the Managing General Partner does not
anticipate that continued compliance will have a material adverse effect on
Partnership operations.
Partnership Employees
The Partnership has no employees; however the Managing General Partner has
a staff of geologists, engineers, accountants, landmen and clerical staff
who engage in Partnership activities and operations and perform additional
services for the Partnership as needed. In addition to the Managing
General Partner's staff, the Partnership engages independent consultants
such as petroleum engineers and geologists as needed. As of December 31,
2000 there were 92 individuals directly employed by the Managing General
Partner in various capacities.
Item 2. Properties
In determining whether an interest in a particular producing property was
to be acquired, the Managing General Partner considered such criteria as
estimated oil and gas reserves, estimated cash flow from the sale of
production, present and future prices of oil and gas, the extent of
undeveloped and unproved reserves, the potential for secondary, tertiary
and other enhanced recovery projects and the availability of markets.
As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership possessed an interest in oil and
gas properties located in Eddy County of New Mexico; Andrews, Dawson,
Howard, Midland, Reeves, Schleicher, Upton, Ward and Winkler Counties of
Texas. These properties consist of various interests in 79 wells and
units.
Due to the Partnership's objective of maintaining current operations
without engaging in the drilling of any developmental or exploratory wells,
or additional acquisitions of producing properties, there has not been any
significant changes in properties during 2000, 1999 and 1998.
There were no property sales during 2000. During 1999, one lease was sold
for approximately $1,600. During 1998, five leases were sold for
approximately $600.
In compliance with the Partnership Agreement, if the Partnership should
purchase a producing property from the Managing General Partner, such
purchase price would be prior cost, adjusted for any intervening operation.
If such adjusted cost was greater than fair market value, or if specific
cost was unable to be determined, such purchase price would be fair market
value as determined by an independent reservoir engineer.

*Ryder Scott Petroleum Engineers prepared the reserve and present value
data for the Partnership's existing properties as of January 1, 2001. The
reserve estimates were made in accordance with guidelines established by
the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 4-10(a) of
Regulation S-X. Such guidelines require oil and gas reserve reports be
prepared under existing economic and operating conditions with no
provisions for price and cost escalation except by contractual
arrangements.
The New York Mercantile Exchange price at December 31, 2000 of $26.80 was
used as the beginning basis for the oil price. Oil price adjustments from
$26.80 per barrel were made in the individual evaluations to reflect oil
quality, gathering and transportation costs. The results are an average
price received at the lease of $25.27 per barrel in the preparation of the
reserve report as of January 1, 2001.
In the determination of the gas price, the New York Mercantile Exchange
price at December 31, 2000 of $9.78 was used as the beginning basis. Gas
price adjustments from $9.78 per Mcf were made in the individual
evaluations to reflect BTU content, gathering and transportation costs and
gas processing and shrinkage. The results are an average price received at
the lease of $9.94 per Mcf in the preparation of the reserve report as of
January 1, 2001.
As also discussed in Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, oil and gas prices were
subject to frequent changes in 2000.
The evaluation of oil and gas properties is not an exact science and
inevitably involves a significant degree of uncertainty, particularly with
respect to the quantity of oil or gas that any given property is capable of
producing. Estimates of oil and gas reserves are based on available
geological and engineering data, the extent and quality of which may vary
in each case and, in certain instances, may prove to be inaccurate.
Consequently, properties may be depleted more rapidly than the geological
and engineering data have indicated.
Unanticipated depletion, if it occurs, will result in lower reserves than
previously estimated; thus an ultimately lower return for the Partnership.
Basic changes in past reserve estimates occur annually. As new data is
gathered during the subsequent year, the engineer must revise his earlier
estimates. A year of new information, which is pertinent to the estimation
of future recoverable volumes, is available during the subsequent year
evaluation.
In applying industry standards and procedures, the new data may cause the
previous estimates to be revised. This revision may increase or decrease
the earlier estimated volumes. Pertinent information gathered during the
year may include actual production and decline rates, production from
offset wells drilled to the same geologic formation, increased or decreased
water production, workovers, and changes in lifting costs among others.
Accordingly, reserve estimates are often different from the quantities of
oil and gas that are ultimately recovered.
The Partnership has reserves which are classified as proved developed
producing, proved developed non-producing and proved undeveloped. All of
the proved reserves are included in the engineering reports which evaluate
the Partnership's present reserves.
Because the Partnership does not engage in drilling activities, the
development of proved undeveloped reserves is conducted pursuant to farmout
arrangements with the Managing General Partner or unrelated third parties.
Generally, the Partnership retains a carried interest such as an overriding
royalty interest under the terms of a farmout, or receives cash.
The Partnership or the owners of properties in which the Partnership owns
an interest can engage in workover projects or supplementary recovery
projects, for example, to extract behind the pipe reserves which qualify as
proved developed non-producing reserves. See Part II, Item 7, Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Partnership is
a party.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth
quarter of 2000 through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.
Part II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related
Stockholder Matters
Market Information
Limited partnership interests, or units, in the Partnership are currently
being offered and sold for a price of $500. Limited partner units are not
traded on any exchange and there is no public or organized trading market
for them. Further, a transferee may not become a substitute limited
partner without the consent of the Managing General Partner.
The Managing General Partner has the right, but not the obligation, to
purchase limited partnership units should an investor desire to sell. The
value of the unit is determined by adding the sum of (1) current assets
less liabilities and (2) the present value of the future net revenues
attributable to proved reserves and by discounting the future net revenues
at a rate not in excess of the prime rate charged by NationsBank, N.A. of
Midland, Texas plus one percent (1%), which value shall be further reduced
by a risk factor discount of no more than one-third (1/3) to be determined
by the Managing General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion. As of
December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, no limited partner units were purchased
by the Managing General Partner.
Number of Limited Partner Interest Holders
As of December 31, 2000, there were 177 holders of limited partner units in
the Partnership.
Distributions
Pursuant to Article III, Section 3.05 of the Partnership's Certificate and
Agreement of Limited Partnership, "Net Cash Flow" shall be distributed to
the partners on a monthly basis. "Net Cash Flow" is defined as "the cash
generated by the Partnership's investments in producing oil and gas
properties, less (i) General and Administrative Costs, (ii) Direct Costs,
(iii) Operating Costs, and (iv) any reserves necessary to meet current and
anticipated needs of the Partnership, as determined in the sole discretion
of the Managing General Partner."
During 2000, quarterly distributions were made totaling $235,737, with
$212,163 distributed to the limited partners and $23,574 to the general
partners. For the year ended December 31, 2000, distributions of $43.74
per limited partner unit were made, based upon 4,851 limited partner units
outstanding. Distributions for 2000 increased significantly due to the
record high oil and gas prices received during the year. During 1999,
distributions were made totaling $112,699, with $101,599 distributed to the
limited partners and $11,100 to the general partners. For the year ended
December 31, 1999, distributions of $20.94 per limited partner unit were
made, based upon 4,851 limited partner units outstanding. During 1998,
distributions were made totaling $58,500, with $52,650 distributed to the
limited partners and $5,850 to the general partners. For the year ended
December 31, 1998, distributions of $10.85 per limited partner unit were
made, based upon 4,851 limited partner units outstanding.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
General
Southwest Royalties Institutional Income Fund XI-B, L.P. was organized as a
Delaware limited partnership on August 31, 1993. The offering of limited
partnership interests began October 25, 1993, as part of a shelf offering
registered under the name Southwest Royalties Institutional 1992-93 Income
Program. Minimum capital requirements for the Partnership were met on
December 8, 1993, and the Offering Period terminated August 20, 1994 with
174 limited partners purchasing 4,851 units for $2,425,500.
The Partnership was formed to acquire non-operating interests in producing
oil and gas properties, to produce and market crude oil and natural gas
produced from such properties and to distribute any net proceeds from
operations to the general and limited partners. Net revenues from
producing oil and gas properties will not be reinvested in other revenue
producing assets except to the extent that producing facilities and wells
are reworked or where methods are employed to improve or enable more
efficient recovery of oil and gas reserves. The economic life of the
Partnership will thus depend on the period over which the Partnership's oil
and gas reserves are economically recoverable.
Increases or decreases in Partnership revenues and, therefore,
distributions to partners will depend primarily on changes in the prices
received for production, changes in volumes of production sold, lease
operating expenses, enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities
pursuant to farmout arrangements and on the depletion wells. Since wells
deplete over time, production can generally be expected to decline from
year to year.
Well operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease
with production declines; however, these costs may not decrease
proportionately. Net income available for distribution to the limited
partners has fluctuated over the past few years and is expected to
fluctuate in later years based on these factors.
Based on current conditions, management anticipates performing workovers
during 2001 to enhance production. Additional workovers may be performed
in the year 2003. The partnership may have an increase in production
volumes for the years 2001 and 2003, otherwise, the partnership will most
likely experience the historical production decline of approximately 11%
per year.
Results of Operations
A. General Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2000 and 1999
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999:
Year Ended Percentage
December 31, Increase
2000 1999 (Decrease)
---- ---- ---------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 28.50 16.74 70%
Average price per mcf of gas $ 4.14 2.26 83%
Oil production in barrels 6,800 9,280 (27%)
Gas production in mcf 73,300 81,160 (10%)
Income from net profits interests $ 303,558 188,298 61%
Partnership distributions $ 235,737 112,699 109%
Limited partner distributions $ 212,163 101,599 109%
Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 43.74 20.94 109%
Number of limited partner units 4,851 4,851
Revenues
The Partnership's income from net profits interests increased to $303,558
from $188,298 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively,
an increase of 61%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the year ended December 31, 2000 as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1999 by 70%, or $11.76 per barrel, resulting in
an increase of approximately $80,000 in income from net profits
interests. Oil sales represented 39% of total oil and gas sales during
the year ended December 31, 2000 as compared to 46% during the year
ended December 31, 1999.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 83%, or $1.88 per mcf, resulting in
an increase of approximately $137,800 in income from net profits
interests.
The total increase in income from net profits interests due to the
change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately
$217,800. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile
over the past decade and management expects a certain amount of
volatility to continue in the foreseeable future.
2. Oil production decreased approximately 2,480 barrels or 27% during the
year ended December 31, 2000 as compared to the year ended December 31,
1999, resulting in a decrease of approximately $41,500 in income from
net profits interests.
Gas production decreased approximately 7,860 mcf or 10% during the same
period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $17,800 in income from
net profits interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in production is approximately $59,300. The decrease in
production is in relation to a settlement of royalty on the Dagger Draw
Lease. Production interest of approximately 1,100 barrels and 1,070
mcfs were held in suspense from 1993 through 1999. These dollars were
received and recorded in the Partnership during the third quarter of
1999. Production without the settlement would be a decrease of 25% for
oil and 29% for gas. This decrease was due to the occurrence of payout
on the Dagger Draw. Upon occurrence of payout the percentage of
ownership for the Partnership decrease significantly.
3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 28% higher, or
approximately $42,800 more during the year ended December 31, 2000 as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1999. The increase in lease
operating costs and production taxes is due in part to an increase in
major repairs and maintenance, such as pulling expense on three leases,
and in part to the rise in production taxes directly associated with
the rise in oil and gas prices received during the past year. The rise
in oil and gas prices for 2000 has allowed the Partnership to perform
these repairs and maintenance in the hopes of increasing production,
thereby increasing revenues.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses decreased to $55,774 from $80,682 for the years
ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, a decrease of 31%. The
decrease is the result of lower depletion expense and general and
administrative costs.
1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs decreased 7%
or approximately $2,800 during the year ended December 31, 2000 as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1999.
2. Depletion expense decreased to $17,000 for the year ended December 31,
2000 from $39,000 for the same period in 1999. This represents a decrease
of 56%. Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue method of
amortization based on a percentage of current period gross revenues to
total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the Partnership's
independent petroleum consultants.
The major factor to the decrease in depletion expense between the
comparative periods was the increase in the price of oil and gas used
to determine the Partnership's reserves for January 1, 2001 as compared
to 2000. Another contributing factor was due to the impact of
revisions of previous estimates on reserves. Revisions of previous
estimates can be attributed to the changes in production performance,
oil and gas price and production costs. The impact of the revision
would have decreased depletion expense approximately $3,000 as of
December 31, 1999.
Results of Operations
B. General Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 1999 and 1998
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998:
Year Ended Percentage
December 31, Increase
1999 1998 (Decrease)
---- ---- ---------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 16.74 11.68 43%
Average price per mcf of gas $ 2.26 1.52 49%
Oil production in barrels 9,280 9,800 (5%)
Gas production in mcf 81,160 87,300 (7%)
Income from net profits interests $ 188,298 31,907 490%
Partnership distributions $ 112,699 58,500 93%
Limited partner distributions $ 101,599 52,650 93%
Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 20.94 10.85 93%
Number of limited partner units 4,851 4,851
Revenues
The Partnership's income from net profits interests increased to $188,298
from $31,907 for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively,
an increase of 490%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the year ended December 31, 1999 as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1998 by 43%, or $5.06 per barrel, resulting in
an increase of approximately $49,600 in income from net profits
interests. Oil sales represented 46% of total oil and gas sales during
the year ended December 31, 1999 as compared to 46% during the year
ended December 31, 1998.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 49%, or $.74 per mcf, resulting in
an increase of approximately $64,600 in income from net profits
interests.
The total increase in income from net profits interests due to the
change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately
$114,200. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile
over the past decade and management expects a certain amount of
volatility to continue in the foreseeable future.
2. Oil production decreased approximately 520 barrels or 5% during the
year ended December 31, 1999 as compared to the year ended December 31,
1998, resulting in a decrease of approximately $8,700 in income from
net profits interests.
Gas production decreased approximately 6,140 mcf or 7% during the same
period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $13,900 in income from
net profits interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in production is approximately $22,600.
3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 30% lower, or
approximately $64,100 less during the year ended December 31, 1999 as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1998. The decrease in lease
operating costs are primarily due to workovers performed in 1998 and
property sales.
4. As of December 31, 1998, miscellaneous expense was approximately
$30,159. The Partnership entered into a purchase agreement on the Tar
Baby lease that guaranteed net income each month from October 1994
through January 1998. This income was recorded on the Partnerships
books as miscellaneous income. Based on new information obtained in
May 1998, an adjustment of $52,706 was found to be necessary. This
adjustment was recorded as miscellaneous expense on the Partnerships
books for the quarter ended June 30, 1998.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses decreased to $80,683 from $464,897 for the years
ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, a decrease of 83%. The
decrease is the result of lower depletion expense, provision for impairment
and general and administrative costs.
1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs decreased
14% or approximately $6,900 during the year ended December 31, 1999 as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1998. The decrease of general
and administrative costs were due in part to additional accounting
costs incurred in 1998 in relation to the outsourcing of K-1 tax
package preparation and a change in auditors requiring opinions from
both the predecessors and successor auditors. Additionally, the
Managing General Partner in its effort to cut back on general and
administrative costs whenever and wherever possible was able to reduce
the cost of reserve reports and K-1 tax package preparation during
1999.
3. Depletion expense decreased to $39,000 for the year ended December 31,
1999 from $130,000 for the same period in 1998. This represents a decrease
of 70%. Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue method of
amortization based on a percentage of current period gross revenues to
total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the Partnership's
independent petroleum consultants.
A contributing factor to the decrease in depletion expense between the
comparative periods was the increase in the price of oil and gas used
to determine the Partnership's reserves for January 1, 2000 as compared
to 1999. Another contributing factor was due to the impact of
revisions of previous estimates on reserves. Revisions of previous
estimates can be attributed to the changes in production performance,
oil and gas price and production costs. The impact of the revision
would have decreased depletion expense approximately $54,000 as of
December 31, 1998.
The Partnership reduced the net capitalized costs of oil and gas
properties in 1998 by approximately $279,567. The write-down has the
effect of reducing net income, but did not affect cash flow or partner
distributions.
C. Revenue and Distribution Comparison
Partnership income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and
1998 was $249,986, $129,694 and $(462,692), respectively. Excluding the
effects of depreciation, depletion, amortization and provision for
impairment, net income (loss) would have been $266,986 in 2000, $168,796 in
1999 and $(46,305) in 1998. Correspondingly, Partnership distributions for
the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 were $235,737, $112,699
and $58,500, respectively. These differences are indicative of the changes
in oil and gas prices, production and property.
The source for the 2000 distributions of $235,737 were oil and gas
operations of approximately $247,300, resulting in excess cash for
contingencies or subsequent distributions. The sources for the 1999
distributions of $112,699 were oil and gas operations of approximately
$133,600, and the change in oil and gas properties of approximately $1,600,
resulting in excess cash for contingencies or subsequent distributions.
The source for the 1998 distributions of $58,500 were oil and gas
operations of approximately $55,200, and the change in oil and gas
properties of approximately $600, with the balance from available cash on
hand at the beginning of the period.
Total distributions during the year ended December 31, 2000 were $235,737
of which $212,163 was distributed to the limited partners and $23,574 to
the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners during
the same period was $43.74. Total distributions during the year ended
December 31, 1999 were $112,699 of which $101,599 was distributed to the
limited partners and $11,100 to the general partners. The per unit
distribution to limited partners during the same period was $20.94. Total
distributions during the year ended December 31, 1998 were $58,500 of which
$52,650 was distributed to the limited partners and $5,850 to the general
partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners during the same
period was $10.85.
Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash contributions
of $1,337,875 have been made to the partners. As of December 31, 2000,
$1,218,115 or $251.11 per limited partner unit, has been distributed to the
limited partners, representing a 50% return of the capital contributed.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary source of cash is from operations, the receipt of income from
net profits interests in oil and gas properties. The Partnership knows of
no material change, nor does it anticipate any such change.
Cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $247,300 in
2000 compared to $133,600 in 1999 and approximately $55,200 in 1998. The
primary source of the 2000 cash flow from operating activities was
profitable operations.
The Partnership had no cash flows from investing activities in 2000. Cash
flows provided by investing activities were approximately $1,600 in 1999
and approximately $600 in 1998.
Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $235,700 in 2000
compared to $112,800 in 1999 and approximately $58,400 in 1998. The only
2000 use in financing activities was the distribution to partners.
As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership had approximately $96,100 in
working capital. The Managing General Partner knows of no other
commitments and believes the revenues generated from operations will be
adequate to meet the operating needs of the Partnership.

1. Organization
Southwest Royalties Institutional Income Fund XI-B, L.P. was organized
under the laws of the state of Delaware on August 31, 1993, for the
purpose of acquiring producing oil and gas properties and to produce
and market crude oil and natural gas produced from such properties for
a term of 50 years, unless terminated at an earlier date as provided
for in the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership will sell its oil
and gas production to a variety of purchasers with the prices it
receives being dependent upon the oil and gas economy. Southwest
Royalties, Inc. serves as the Managing General Partner and H. H.
Wommack, III, as the individual general partner. Partnership profits
and losses, as well as all items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or
credit, will be credited or charged as follows:

selling and organizing the offering) include a payment by the
Partnership of an amount equal to three percent (3%) of Capital
Contributions for reimbursement of such expenses. All
Organization Costs (which excludes sales commissions and fees) in
excess of three percent (3%) of Capital Contributions with
respect to the Partnership will be allocated to and paid by the
Managing General Partner.
(3) Administrative Costs will be paid from the Partnership's
revenues; however; Administrative Costs in the Partnership year
in excess of two percent (2%) of Capital Contributions shall be
allocated to and paid by the Managing General Partner.

Notes to Financial Statements
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Oil and Gas Properties
Oil and gas properties are accounted for at cost under the full-cost
method. Under this method, all productive and nonproductive costs
incurred in connection with the acquisition, exploration and
development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized. Gain or loss on
the sale of oil and gas properties is not recognized unless
significant oil and gas reserves are involved.
The Partnership's policy for depreciation, depletion and amortization
of oil and gas properties is computed under the units of revenue
method. Under the units of revenue method, depreciation, depletion
and amortization is computed on the basis of current gross revenues
from production in relation to future gross revenues, based on current
prices, from estimated production of proved oil and gas reserves.
Under the units of revenue method, the Partnership computes the
provision by multiplying the total unamortized cost of oil and gas
properties by an overall rate determined by dividing (a) oil and gas
revenues during the period by (b) the total future gross oil and gas
revenues as estimated by the Partnership's independent petroleum
consultants. It is reasonably possible that those estimates of
anticipated future gross revenues, the remaining estimated economic
life of the product, or both could be changed significantly in the
near term due to the potential fluctuation of oil and gas prices or
production. The depletion estimate would also be affected by this
change.
Should the net capitalized costs exceed the estimated present value of
oil and gas reserves, discounted at 10%, such excess costs would be
charged to current expense. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, the net
capitalized costs did not exceed the estimated value of oil and gas
reserves. The Partnership reduced the net capitalized costs of oil
and gas properties in 1998 by approximately $279,567. This write-down
has the effect of reducing net income, but did not affect cash flow or
partnership distributions.
The Partnership's interest in oil and gas properties consists of net
profits interests in proved properties located within the continental
United States. A net profits interest is created when the owner of a
working interest in a property enters into an arrangement providing
that the net profits interest owner will receive a stated percentage
of the net profit from the property. The net profits interest owner
will not otherwise participate in additional costs and expenses of the
property.

Notes to Financial Statements
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Estimates and Uncertainties
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Organization Costs
Organization costs are stated at cost and are amortized over sixty
months using the straight-line method.
Syndication Costs
Syndication costs are accounted for as a reduction of partnership
equity.
Environmental Costs
The Partnership is subject to extensive federal, state and local
environmental laws and regulations. These laws, which are constantly
changing, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and
may require the Partnership to remove or mitigate the environmental
effects of the disposal or release of petroleum or chemical substances
at various sites. Environmental expenditures are expensed or
capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. Costs which
improve a property as compared with the condition of the property when
originally constructed or acquired and costs which prevent future
environmental contamination are capitalized. Expenditures that relate
to an existing condition caused by past operations and that have no
future economic benefits are expensed. Liabilities for expenditures
of a non-capital nature are recorded when environmental assessment
and/or remediation is probable, and the costs can be reasonably
estimated.
Gas Balancing
The Partnership utilizes the sales method of accounting for gas-
balancing arrangements. Under this method the Partnership recognizes
sales revenue on all gas sold. As of December 31, 2000, 1999 and
1998, there were no significant amounts of imbalance in terms of units
and value.
Income Taxes
No provision for income taxes is reflected in these financial
statements, since the tax effects of the Partnership's income or loss
are passed through to the individual partners.
In accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," the
Partnership's tax basis in its oil and gas properties at December 31,
2000 and 1999 is $427,595 and $485,118 more than that shown on the
accompanying Balance Sheet in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Notes to Financial Statements
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Partnership considers
all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents. The Partnership maintains its
cash at one financial institution.
Number of Limited Partner Units
As of December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 there were 4,851 limited
partner units outstanding held by 177, 175 and 176 partners.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Partnership is subject to credit risk through trade receivables.
Although a substantial portion of its debtors' ability to pay is
dependent upon the oil and gas industry, credit risk is minimized due
to a large customer base. All partnership revenues are received by
the Managing General Partner and subsequently remitted to the
partnership and all expenses are paid by the Managing General Partner
and subsequently reimbursed by the partnership.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of cash and accounts receivable approximates fair
value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Net Income (loss) per limited partnership unit
The net income (loss) per limited partnership unit is calculated by
using the number of outstanding limited partnership units.

(a Delaware limited partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements
3. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
The Managing General Partner has the right, but not the obligation, to
purchase limited partnership units should an investor desire to sell.
The value of the unit is determined by adding the sum of (1) current
assets less liabilities and (2) the present value of the future net
revenues attributable to proved reserves and by discounting the future
net revenues at a rate not in excess of the prime rate charged by
NationsBank, N.A. of Midland, Texas plus one percent (1%), which value
shall be further reduced by a risk factor discount of no more than one-
third (1/3) to be determined by the Managing General Partner in its
sole and absolute discretion.
The Partnership is subject to various federal, state and local
environmental laws and regulations, which establish standards and
requirements for protection of the environment. The Partnership
cannot predict the future impact of such standards and requirements,
which are subject to change and can have retroactive effectiveness.
The Partnership continues to monitor the status of these laws and
regulations.
As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership has not been fined, cited or
notified of any environmental violations and management is not aware
of any unasserted violations which would have a material adverse
effect upon capital expenditures, earnings or the competitive position
in the oil and gas industry. However, the Managing General Partner
does recognize by the very nature of its business, material costs
could be incurred in the near term to bring the Partnership into total
compliance. The amount of such future expenditures is not reliably
determinable due to several factors, including the unknown magnitude
of possible contaminations, the unknown timing and extent of the
corrective actions which may be required, the determination of the
Partnership's liability in proportion to other responsible parties and
the extent to which such expenditures are recoverable from insurance
or indemnifications from prior owners of Partnership's properties.

4. Related Party Transactions
A significant portion of the oil and gas properties in which the
Partnership has an interest are operated by and purchased from the
Managing General Partner. As is usual in the industry and as provided
for in the operating agreement for each respective oil and gas
property in which the Partnership has an interest, the operator is
paid an amount for administrative overhead attributable to operating
such properties, with such amounts to Southwest Royalties, Inc. as
operator approximating $55,500, $55,300 and $54,700 for the years
ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. In addition,
the Managing General Partner and certain officers and employees may
have an interest in some of the properties that the Partnership also
participates.
Certain subsidiaries or affiliates of the Managing General Partner
perform various oilfield services for properties in which the
Partnership owns an interest. Such services aggregated approximately
$2,500, $5,200 and $600 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999
and 1998, respectively, and the Managing General Partner believes that
these costs are comparable to similar charges paid by the Partnership
to unrelated third parties.
Southwest Royalties, Inc., the Managing General Partner, was paid
$34,800 in 2000, $36,000 in 1999 and $33,711 in 1998, as an
administrative fee for indirect general and administrative overhead
expenses.
Receivables from Southwest Royalties, Inc., the Managing General
Partner, of approximately $59,613 and $39,956 are from oil and gas
production, net of lease operating costs and production taxes, as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
In addition, a director and officer of the Managing General Partner is
a partner in a law firm, with such firm providing legal services to
the Partnership. There were no legal services for the years ended
December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998.
5. Major Customers
No material portion of the Partnership's business is dependent on a
single purchaser, or a very few purchasers, where the loss of one
would have a material adverse impact on the Partnership. Three
purchasers accounted for 91% of the Partnership's total oil and gas
production during 2000: Sid Richardson Gasoline Co. for 44%, Navajo
Refining Company, Inc. for 37% and Phillips 66 Natural Gas for 10%.
Three purchasers accounted for 84% of the Partnership's total oil and
gas production during 1999: Navajo Refining Company for 40%, Sid
Richardson Gasoline Co. for 33% and Phillips 66 for 11%. Two
purchasers accounted for 72% of the Partnership's total oil and gas
production during 1998: Navajo Refining Company for 39% and American
Processing for 33%. All purchasers of the Partnership's oil and gas
production are unrelated third parties. In the event any of these
purchasers were to discontinue purchasing the Partnership's
production, the Managing General Partner believes that a substitute
purchaser or purchasers could be located without undue delay. No
other purchaser accounted for an amount equal to or greater than 10%
of the Partnership's sales of oil and gas production.

======= =========
December 31, 2000 67,000 783,000
======= =========
All of the Partnership's reserves are located within the continental
United States.
*Ryder Scott Petroleum Engineers prepared the reserve and present
value data for the Partnership's existing properties as of January 1,
2001. The reserve estimates were made in accordance with guidelines
established by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule
4-10(a) of Regulation S-X. Such guidelines require oil and gas
reserve reports be prepared under existing economic and operating
conditions with no provisions for price and cost escalation except by
contractual arrangements.
The New York Mercantile Exchange price at December 31, 2000 of $26.80
was used as the beginning basis for the oil price. Oil price
adjustments from $26.80 per barrel were made in the individual
evaluations to reflect oil quality, gathering and transportation
costs. The results are an average price received at the lease of
$25.27 per barrel in the preparation of the reserve report as of
January 1, 2001.
In the determination of the gas price, the New York Mercantile
Exchange price at December 31, 2000 of $9.78 was used as the beginning
basis. Gas price adjustments from $9.78 per Mcf were made in the
individual evaluations to reflect BTU content, gathering and
transportation costs and gas processing and shrinkage. The results
are an average price received at the lease of $9.94 per Mcf in the
preparation of
the reserve report as of January 1, 2001.

6. Estimated Oil and Gas Reserves (unaudited) - continued
The evaluation of oil and gas properties is not an exact science and
inevitably involves a significant degree of uncertainty, particularly
with respect to the quantity of oil or gas that any given property is
capable of producing. Estimates of oil and gas reserves are based on
available geological and engineering data, the extent and quality of
which may vary in each case and, in certain instances, may prove to be
inaccurate. Consequently, properties may be depleted more rapidly
than the geological and engineering data have indicated.
Unanticipated depletion, if it occurs, will result in lower reserves
than previously estimated; thus an ultimately lower return for the
Partnership. Basic changes in past reserve estimates occur annually.
As new data is gathered during the subsequent year, the engineer must
revise his earlier estimates. A year of new information, which is
pertinent to the estimation of future recoverable volumes, is
available during the subsequent year evaluation.
In applying industry standards and procedures, the new data may cause
the previous estimates to be revised. This revision may increase or
decrease the earlier estimated volumes. Pertinent information
gathered during the year may include actual production and decline
rates, production from offset wells drilled to the same geologic
formation, increased or decreased water production, workovers, and
changes in lifting costs among others. Accordingly, reserve estimates
are often different from the quantities of oil and gas that are
ultimately recovered.
The Partnership has reserves which are classified as proved developed
producing, proved developed non-producing and proved undeveloped. All
of the proved reserves are included in the engineering reports which
evaluate the Partnership's present reserves.
Because the Partnership does not engage in drilling activities, the
development of proved undeveloped reserves is conducted pursuant to
farmout arrangements with the Managing General Partner or unrelated
third parties. Generally, the Partnership retains a carried interest
such as an overriding royalty interest under the terms of a farmout,
or receives cash.

specific instances and on an "as-needed" basis allows for greater
flexibility and greater opportunity to perform its oil and gas activities
more economically and effectively.
Item 11. Executive Compensation
The Partnership does not have any directors or executive officers. The
executive officers of the Managing General Partner do not receive any cash
compensation, bonuses, deferred compensation or compensation pursuant to
any type of plan, from the Partnership. The Managing General Partner

fee. This amount is part of the general and administrative expenses
incurred by the Partnership.
In some instances the Managing General Partner and certain officers and
employees may be working interest owners in an oil and gas property in
which the Partnership also has a working interest. Certain properties in
which the Partnership has an interest are operated by the Managing General
Partner, who was paid approximately $55,500 for administrative overhead
attributable to operating such properties during 2000.
Certain subsidiaries or affiliates of the Managing General Partner perform
various oilfield services for properties in which the Partnership owns an
interest. Such services aggregated approximately $2,500 for the year ended
December 31, 2000.
In the opinion of management, the terms of the above transactions are
similar to ones with unaffiliated third parties.
