2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     The  interim financial information as of March 31, 1998, and  for  the
     three  months ended March 31, 1998, is unaudited.  Certain information
     and  footnote  disclosures normally included in  financial  statements
     prepared  in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles
     have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules
     and  regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.   However,
     in  the  opinion  of  management, these interim  financial  statements
     include all the necessary adjustments to fairly present the results of
     the interim periods and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring
     nature.  The interim consolidated financial statements should be  read
     in  conjunction  with the audited financial statements  for  the  year
     ended December 31, 1997.


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 13, 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.

Based  on  current conditions, management anticipates performing  workovers
during  the  next  few years to enhance production.  The Partnership  could
possibly  experience  a  lower than normal decline  during  that  time  and
thereafter, could possibly experience a normal decline.

Revenues

The  Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased  to  $33,064
from  $70,958 for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively,
a  decrease of 53%.  The principal factors affecting the comparison of  the
quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:

1.  The  average  price  for a barrel of oil received  by  the  Partnership
    decreased  during the quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared  to  the
    quarter ended March 31, 1997 by 48%, or $11.12 per barrel, resulting in
    a  decrease  of  approximately  $35,584  in  income  from  net  profits
    interests.  Oil sales represented 39% of total oil and gas sales during
    the  quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared to 54% during the quarter
    ended March 31, 1997.

    The  average  price  for  an  mcf of gas received  by  the  Partnership
    decreased during the same period by 17%, or $.40 per mcf, resulting  in
    a  decrease  of  approximately  $10,640  in  income  from  net  profits
    interests.

    The  total  decrease in income from net profits interests  due  to  the
    change  in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately
    $46,224.   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 400 barrels or 13%  during  the
    quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended March 31,
    1997,  resulting in a decrease of approximately $4,864 in  income  from
    net profits interests.

    Gas  production decreased approximately 700 mcf or 3% during  the  same
    period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $1,414 in income  from
    net profits interests.

    The  total  decrease in income from net profits interests  due  to  the
    change in production is approximately $6,278.

3.  Lease   operating  costs  and  production  taxes  were  9%  lower,   or
    approximately $5,204 less during the quarter ended March  31,  1998  as
    compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1997.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses decreased to $44,891 from $54,951 for the quarters
ended  March  31,  1998  and 1997, respectively, a decrease  of  18%.   The
decrease  is  the  result  of  higher general  and  administrative  expense
partially offset by a decrease 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 6%
    or  approximately  $940  during the quarter ended  March  31,  1998  as
    compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1997.

2.  Depletion expense decreased to $25,000 for the quarter ended March  31,
    1998  from  $36,000  for the same period in 1997.   This  represents  a
    decrease  of 31%.  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.   Contributing
    factors  to  the  decline in depletion expense between the  comparative
    periods were the decrease in gross oil and gas revenue and the decrease
    in  the  price of oil used to determine the Partnership's reserves  for
    January 1, 1998 as compared to 1997.


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 $36,000  in
the  quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared to approximately  $98,700  in
the quarter ended March 31, 1997.  The primary source of the 1998 cash flow
from operating activities was profitable operations.

Cash  flows used in financing activities were approximately $33,500 in  the
quarter  ended March 31, 1998 as compared to approximately $94,400  in  the
quarter ended March 31, 1997.  The only use in financing activities was the
distributions to partners.

Total distributions during the quarter ended March 31, 1998 were $33,500 of
which  $30,150  was distributed to the limited partners and $3,350  to  the
general partners.  The per unit distribution to limited partners during the
quarter  ended  March 31, 1998 was $6.22.  Total distributions  during  the
quarter  ended March 31, 1997 were $94,500 of which $85,050 was distributed
to  the limited partners and $9,450 to the general partners.  The per  unit
distribution  to limited partners during the quarter ended March  31,  1997
was $17.53.

The source for the 1998 distributions of $33,500 was oil and gas operations
of  approximately $36,000. The source for the 1997 distributions of $94,500
was  oil  and gas operations of approximately $98,700, resulting in  excess
cash for contingencies or subsequent distributions.

Since  inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash  distributions
of $964,439 have been made to the partners.  As of March 31, 1998, $881,853
or  $181.79  per limited partner unit has been distributed to  the  limited
partners, representing a 36% return of the capital contributed.

As  of March 31, 1998, the Partnership had approximately $90,590 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.
