ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.

       (c) Exhibits:

           99.1 Company press release dated July 24, 2001 titled "Denbury
                Resources Announces Private Offering of $75,000,000 of Senior
                Subordinated Notes."

ITEM 9.  REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.

Preliminary Second Quarter Results

The Company is scheduled to release its earnings for the second quarter of 2001
on August 2, 2001. As of the date hereof, although these results were not yet
available, the Company does not expect results for the second quarter to vary
significantly from our current forecasts. The Company's forecast for average
daily production for the quarter is approximately 28,000 BOE/d. The Company's
forecast for lease operating expenses is approximately $5.25 per BOE, excluding
taxes, and the Company expects production taxes for the second quarter to be
down slightly from the first quarter expense of $1.09 per BOE to approximately
$1.05 per BOE. The Company's second quarter forecasted depletion, depreciation
and amortization expense is approximately $5.15 per BOE and general and
administrative expense is approximately $1.10 per BOE. The Company expects that
its oil production during the second quarter was sold at an average discount to
NYMEX oil prices of approximately $4.50 to $5.00 per Bbl and its natural gas
production was sold at an average premium to NYMEX natural gas prices of 2% to
4%. The Company expects that the effect of generally lower prices for oil and
natural gas in the second quarter as compared to the first quarter of 2001 will
have a negative effect on quarter-to-quarter earnings and cash flow, offset to
some degree by increases in production quantities.
