Item 2.   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 such
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, with the offering of limited partnership interests
concluding August 20, 1994, with total limited partner contributions of
$2,425,500. 

The Partnership was formed to acquire royalty and net profits 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 farm-out
arrangements, sales of properties, and the depletion of 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 partners is
therefore expected to fluctuate in later years based on these factors.

As of September 30, 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.

Revenues

The Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased to $63,737 from
$76,231 for the quarters ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, a
decrease of 16%.  The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
quarters ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

1.  The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
    increased during the quarter ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the
    quarter ended September 30, 1995 by 32%, or $5.22 per barrel, resulting
    in an increase of approximately $25,100 in income from net profits
    interests.  Oil sales represented 57% of total oil and gas sales during
    the quarter ended September 30, 1996 as compared to 55% during the
    quarter ended September 30, 1995.

    The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership increased
    during the same period by 15%, or $.24 per mcf, resulting in an increase
    of approximately $9,600 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 $34,700. 
    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 1,000 barrels or 21% during the
    quarter ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the quarter ended
    September 30, 1995, resulting in a decrease of approximately $21,700 in
    income from net profits interests.

    Gas production decreased approximately 6,000 mcf or 15% during the same
    period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $11,000 in income from
    net profits interests.

    The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the change
    in production is approximately $32,700.  The decrease is primarily a
    result of surface problems.

3.  Lease operating costs and production taxes were 22% higher, or
    approximately $14,500 more during the quarter ended September 30, 1996 as
    compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1995.  The increase is a
    result of post closing costs incurred in 1996 on an acquisition effective
    in 1995.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses increased to $56,946 from $55,785 for the quarters
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, an increase of 2%.  The
increase is the result of higher general and administrative expense, offset
by a decline in depletion expense.

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 increased 3%
    or approximately $300 during the quarter ended September 30, 1996 as
    compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1995.  

2.  Depletion expense decreased to $43,000 for the quarter ended September
    30, 1996 from $44,000 for the same period in 1995.  This represents a
    decrease of 2%.  Depletion is calculated using the gross 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.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The primary source of cash is from operations, the receipt of income from
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 $168,500 in
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to approximately
$180,700 in the nine months ended September 30, 1995.  The primary source of
the 1996 cash flow from operating activities was profitable operations.

Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities were approximately
$3,100 in the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to
approximately $(108,600) in the nine months ended September 30, 1995.  The
principle source of the 1996 cash flow from investing activities was the
refund of organization costs.

Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $260,300 in the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to approximately $186,200 in
the nine months ended September 30, 1995.  The only use in financing
activities was the distributions to partners.

Total distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 were
$260,239 of which $243,589 was distributed to the limited partners and
$16,650 to the general partners.  The per unit distribution to limited
partners during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was $50.21.  Total
distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were $186,232
of which $168,006 was distributed to the limited partners and $18,226 to the
general partners.  The per unit distribution to limited partners during the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $34.63.  

The sources for the 1996 distributions of $260,239 were oil and gas
operations of approximately $168,500 and the refund of organization costs of 
approximately $3,100, with the balance from available cash on hand at the
beginning of the period.  The source for the 1995 distributions of $186,232
was oil and gas operations of approximately $180,700, offset by the additions
of oil and gas properties of approximately $108,600, with the balance from
available cash on hand at the beginning of the period.

Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash distributions of
$551,839 have been made to the partners.  As of September 30, 1996, $510,513
or $105.24 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the limited
partners, representing a 21% return of the capital contributed.

As of September 30, 1996, the Partnership had approximately $123,200 in
working capital.  The Managing General Partner knows of no unusual
contractual commitments and believes the revenues generated from operations
are adequate to meet the needs of the Partnership.
