ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.

                                    GENERAL

Presidio Oil Company is an independent oil and gas company organized under the
laws of the State of Delaware in April 1976 to continue the business of
Presidio Exploration, Inc. (organized in 1968) of engaging, primarily through
subsidiaries, in onshore oil and gas exploration, development and production in
selected regions in the continental United States.  The Company maintains its
corporate offices at 5613 DTC Parkway, Suite 750, Englewood, Colorado
80111-3065.  Its telephone number at that location is (303) 773-0100.  Unless
the context otherwise requires, all references in this Annual Report on Form
10-K (this "Report") to "Presidio" or the "Company" are to Presidio Oil Company
and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company conducts its exploration, development and production operations in
three regional areas:  (i)  the Rocky Mountains, with operations primarily in
Wyoming and North Dakota, (ii) the Mid-Continent, with operations primarily in
southeastern New Mexico and west Texas, western Oklahoma and south Louisiana,
and (iii) West Virginia, with operations primarily in southern West Virginia.
Within these regional areas, the Company's operations are concentrated in seven
core areas:  the Green River Basin in Wyoming; the Powder River Basin in
Wyoming; the Williston Basin in North Dakota; the Permian Basin in southeastern
New Mexico and west Texas; the Anadarko Basin in western Oklahoma; south
Louisiana; and southern West Virginia.

                               BUSINESS STRATEGY

The Company is committed to a growth strategy that emphasizes oil and gas
reserve additions in its seven core areas, both through development drilling
and acquisition activity and, to a lesser extent, through exploration drilling.
Because the Company controls the operations of most of its producing
properties, the Company believes that it has achieved overhead and operating
expenses below the independent industry average.

In 1993 Presidio recorded substantial success in adding .8 million barrels
("MMBbls") of oil and 52.2 billion cubic feet ("BCF") of gas to its proved
hydrocarbon reserves, compared to production of 1.4 MMBbls of oil and 15.3 BCF
of gas and sales of lower-margin oil and gas properties consisting of 205,000
barrels of oil and 2.8 BCF of gas, and thereby replacing 204% of its production
and property sales at a cost per equivalent barrel of $2.21.  In terms of
natural gas equivalents, the Company added 57 billion equivalent cubic feet of
gas at a finding cost of $.37 per equivalent thousand cubic feet of gas.

Most of this increase in proved reserves resulted from the Company's successful
field extension and other developmental operations, with the remainder being
principally attributable to the acquisition of additional interests in oil and
gas wells operated by the Company (see Note 15 to the Company's Consolidated
Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report for detailed
information concerning the Company's oil and gas reserves, including certain
producing property sales completed subsequent to yearend 1993).  Moreover, as a
result of these operations, Presidio's proved developed gas reserves increased
by 25%, or 33.3 BCF during 1993, from 131.2 BCF to 164.5 BCF, after production
of 15.3 BCF during the year.

Presidio's large portfolio of probable reserves, other close-in drilling
locations and undeveloped acreage provides significant opportunities for the
Company to continue to add to its proved oil and gas reserves in 1994 and
thereafter.





                                       4
   5
In 1994 the Company anticipates that its capital expenditures will total
approximately $30.4 million and will be principally devoted to natural gas
field development and exploration activities, as follows:

.    $26.1 million on development operations and small producing property
     acquisitions.  The development operations will be concentrated in several
     of the Company's core areas, including: 29 (10 net) wells in the Green
     River Basin in Wyoming; 16 (5 net) wells in the Powder River Basin in
     Wyoming; 6 (3 net) wells in the Anadarko Basin in western Oklahoma; and 15
     (4 net) wells in southern West Virginia, while the property acquisitions
     are currently anticipated to involve producing properties located
     primarily in Wyoming, Oklahoma and Texas.

.    $4.3 million on exploratory projects, principally in Wyoming, Louisiana,
     Oklahoma and Texas.

Moreover, during the 1995 - 1996 period, the Company currently plans to spend a
minimum of $25-30 million per annum on capital expenditures, with a substantial
portion of such expenditures being devoted to the development of the Company's
proved undeveloped hydrocarbon reserves, which totaled 3.1 MMBbls of oil and
138.4 BCF of gas as of December 31, 1993, or 41% of the Company's total proved
reserves.

                     EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION OPERATIONS

The exploration and production activities of the Company consist of the
geological and geophysical evaluation of prospective oil and gas properties,
the acquisition of oil and gas leases or other interests in exploratory
prospects, the drilling of exploratory test wells, and the development and
operation of properties for the production and sale of oil and gas.  The
Company's drilling activities include participation in a substantial amount of
low-risk development drilling operations, as well as in selected high-risk,
high-potential exploration prospects.  The Company generates most of its
exploration prospects, particularly in the Rocky Mountains, through its
in-house geological staff.  However, exploration and development drilling
prospects may be identified by third parties, including independent petroleum
consultants and other oil and gas companies through joint interest programs,
particularly in the Mid-Continent.  All of the drilling activities of the
Company are performed by independent drilling contractors.  Each of the
Company's regional operating areas, and the operations conducted therein, are
briefly described below.

ROCKY MOUNTAINS

At December 31, 1993, the Company had 481 gross (193 net) producing wells,
109,300 gross (47,700 net) developed acres and 657,600 gross (248,400 net)
undeveloped acres in this area, primarily located in (i) the Moxa Arch and Red
Desert areas of the Green River Basin in Wyoming, (ii) the Powder River Basin
in Wyoming and (iii) the Williston Basin in North Dakota.  The Company operates
349 of these gross wells.  For the month ended January 31, 1994, net production
from the Rocky Mountain area averaged approximately 31 million cubic feet
("MMCF") of gas and 3.5 thousand barrels ("MBbls") of oil per day, representing
approximately 77% of the Company's average daily production for such period.
At December 31, 1993 the Rocky Mountain area had proved reserves of 129.5 BCF
of gas and 10.3 MMBbls of oil, representing approximately 50% of the Company's
total proved oil and gas reserves, of which 92.8 BCF of gas and 8.4 MMBbls of
oil were proved developed reserves.

MID-CONTINENT

At December 31, 1993, the Company had 355 gross (100 net) producing wells,
58,800 gross (24,100 net) developed acres and 34,000 gross (11,600 net)
undeveloped acres in this area, primarily located in (i) south Louisiana, (ii)
the Permian Basin in southeastern New Mexico and west Texas and (iii) the
Anadarko Basin in western Oklahoma.  The Company operates 112 of these gross
wells.  For the month ended January 31, 1994, net production from the
Mid-Continent area averaged approximately 14 MMCF of gas and .3 MBbls of oil
per day, representing approximately 23% of the Company's average daily
production for such period.

   6
At December 31, 1993 the Mid-Continent area had proved reserves of 145.4 BCF of
gas and 2.7 MMBbls of oil, representing approximately 42% of the Company's
total proved oil and gas reserves, of which 71.1 BCF of gas and 1.5 MMBbls of
oil were proved developed reserves.

WEST VIRGINIA

At December 31, 1993, as a result of the Company's 1993 drilling program, the
Company had 9 gross (2 net) producing wells and 700 gross (100 net) developed
acres in this area.  The Company also had proved reserves of 28.1 BCF of gas in
West Virginia, representing approximately 8% of the Company's total proved oil
and gas reserves, of which .6 BCF of gas are proved developed reserves.  The
undeveloped portion of these reserves, along with approximately 172,900 gross
(91,400 net) undeveloped acres, will be developed by the Company and is subject

Company's Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this report.

                                   EMPLOYEES

As of February 8, 1994, the Company had 133 employees of which 34 were field
employees.  The Company's employment level will change over time as required by
its operations.  In addition, the Company intends to engage the services of
independent geological, engineering, land, accounting and other consultants
from time to time to assist with its operations.

                                    MARKETS

The Company's gas production has historically been sold under contracts with
marketing and transportation companies and with end-users.  In past years a
surplus of gas has been available to the marketplace in certain areas of the
United States, resulting in industry-wide price weakness.  During 1993 and
early 1994 gas prices strengthened, and the Company benefitted from such
improved prices since its contracts with third-party purchasers provide for
short-term and/or market sensitive pricing for the majority of its gas
production.  Moreover, since gas production is a seasonal business with
production volumes and product prices generally being lower during the warmer
summer months and higher during the colder winter months, the Company has
maintained the ability to shift much of its gas production between markets in
response to price and seasonal demand fluctuations through the use of such
contracts.

The Company markets most of its oil production with independent third-party
resellers and refiners at market ("posted") prices.  These posted prices
generally reflect the prices determined by the trading of West Texas
Intermediate ("WTI") oil futures contracts on the New York Mercantile Exchange
("NYMEX"), with adjustments for the geographical area in which the producing
properties are located and for the quality of the oil produced.  NYMEX prices
continue to be influenced by worldwide production levels and a variety of
political and economic events over which the Company has no control.

                                  COMPETITION

Competition in the oil and gas industry is intense.  Many companies and
individuals compete to acquire prospective oil and gas leases and other mineral
interests, as well as to obtain exploration and development funding.  Many of
these competitors are large, well-established companies with substantially
larger operating staffs and greater capital resources than the Company, and
they have been engaged in the energy business for a much longer period than the
Company.  The Company may be at a competitive disadvantage with these larger
entities.





                                       6
   7
There is also competition in the marketing of gas, insofar as numerous
companies are active gas marketers, including marketing affiliates of
interstate pipelines, major integrated oil companies, Canadian gas producers
and pipelines, and local and national gas gatherers, brokers and marketers of
widely varying sizes, financial resources and experience.  Certain competitors
have capital resources many times greater than the Company's, and they control
substantially greater supplies of gas.  Local utilities and distributors of gas
(some of which are customers of the Company) are, in some cases, engaged
directly and through affiliates in marketing activities that compete with those
of the Company.

                                   REGULATION

The Company's oil and gas operations are subject to various federal, state and
local governmental regulations.  Matters subject to regulation include
discharge permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds, reports concerning
operations, the spacing of wells, unitization and pooling of properties and
taxation.  From time to time, regulatory agencies have imposed price controls
and limitations on production by restricting the rate of flow of oil and gas
wells below actual production capacity in order to conserve supplies of oil and
gas.

Oil and gas operations are also subject to extensive federal, state and local
laws regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise
relating to the protection of human health and the environment.  These
regulations are often difficult and costly to comply with and carry substantial
penalties for failure to comply.  In addition, these regulations may restrict
the rate of oil and gas production below the rate that would otherwise exist.
The regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases its cost of doing
business and, consequently, affects its profitability.  To date, expenditures
by the Company related to compliance with these laws have not been significant.
The Company believes, however, the trend of more expansive and stricter
environmental legislation and regulations, including regulations with respect
to the handling and disposal of oil and gas exploration and production wastes
and oilfield wastes contaminated by naturally occurring radioactive materials,
and the imposition of financial responsibility requirements with respect to
environmental cleanup costs (e.g. regulations requiring environmental liability
insurance or other types of financial assurance) will continue and may result
in additional costs to the Company in the future.  For example, amendments to
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act to regulate further the handling,
transportation, storage and disposal of oil and gas exploration and production
wastes have been considered by Congress and may be adopted.  Also, in August
1993 the U.S.  Minerals Management Service published an advance notice of its
intent to adopt regulations that may require owners of oil and gas facilities
that could be the source of an oil spill into waters of the United States to
provide $150 million in financial assurances to cover costs that might be
incurred by governmental authorities in responding to and cleaning up an oil
spill.  Such legislation or regulations, if enacted or adopted, could have a
significant adverse impact on the Company's operating costs.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES.

                           EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION

The Company's operations are concentrated in seven core areas where the Company
conducts most of its exploration and development drilling and acquisition
activity:  the Green River Basin in Wyoming; the Powder River Basin in Wyoming;
the Williston Basin in North Dakota; the Permian Basin in southeastern New
Mexico and west Texas; the Anadarko Basin in western Oklahoma; south Louisiana;
and southern West Virginia.  None of the Company's oil and gas production is
subject to long-term supply or similar agreements with foreign governments or
authorities.





                                       7

OPERATIONS

At December 31, 1993, the Company operated approximately 77% of the net
producing wells in which it owned an interest.  The operator of a well
supervises production, maintains production records, employs field personnel
and performs other functions on behalf of all owners of such operated wells.
See "Business - Exploration and Production Operations" contained in Item 1 of
this Report for information concerning the Company's operating areas.

The Company's oil and gas operations are subject to all of the operating
hazards and risks normally incident to drilling for and producing oil and gas,
such as fires, explosions, encountering formations with abnormal pressures,
blowouts, cratering and oil spills, any of which can result in loss of
hydrocarbons, environmental pollution, personal injury claims and loss of life.
Such hazards can also severely damage or destroy equipment, sub-surface
structures, surrounding areas or property of others.  As protection against
such operating hazards, the Company maintains insurance coverage, including
operator's extra expense, physical damage on certain risks, employer's
liability, comprehensive general liability and workers' compensation.  The
Company believes that such insurance is adequate and customary for companies of
a similar size engaged in operations similar to those of the Company, but
losses can occur from uninsurable risks or in amounts in excess of existing
insurance coverage.  The Company does not carry business interruption insurance
in respect of its operations and the occurrence of an event that is not fully
covered by insurance could have an adverse impact upon the Company's financial
condition and results of operations.

ESTIMATED PROVED RESERVES

The following tables set forth estimates of proved oil and gas reserves and the
present value of estimated future net revenues attributable to such reserves,
based on the assumptions that oil and gas prices will remain fixed at yearend
levels, with escalation up to prices which prevail under fixed and determinable
escalation provisions of existing oil and gas contracts, and that operating
costs will remain fixed at yearend levels.  The present value of the estimated
future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves at the dates indicated
below was computed by discounting the aggregate estimated future net revenues
by 10% per year.  The present value does not represent the fair market value of
such reserves.  This information is based primarily upon reserve reports
prepared by the Company and reviewed by Huddleston & Co., Inc., Houston, Texas
(for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991) and Netherland, Sewell &
Associates, Inc., Dallas, Texas (for the year ended December 31, 1991),
independent petroleum and geological engineering firms.

Proved reserves are the estimated quantities of oil, gas and natural gas
liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable
certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under
existing economic and operating conditions.  Proved developed reserves are
proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells
with existing equipment and operating methods.  The estimation of reserves
requires substantial judgment on the part of petroleum engineers resulting in
imprecise determinations, particularly with respect to new discoveries.  The
accuracy of any reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data and
engineering and geological interpretation and judgement.  Results of drilling,
testing and production subsequent to the date of the estimate may result in
revisions of such estimate.  Accordingly, estimates of reserves are often
materially different from the quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately
recovered and such estimates will change as future production and development
information becomes available.  The reserve data represents estimates only and
should not be construed as being exact.

         (1)     Before giving effect to the Company's oil hedging
                 arrangements.  The average price increased to $21.19 as a
                 result of such oil hedging arrangements.  Such hedging
                 arrangements expired December 31, 1991.
         (2)     In December 1992 the Company sold its West Virginia proved
                 developed properties which had received an above- market
                 contract price for gas sales.  The Company's pro forma gas
                 price excluding such West Virginia properties was $1.54 and
                 $1.38 for the years ended December 31, 1992 and 1991,
                 respectively.
         (3)     Oil and gas are converted to a common unit of measure
                 ("equivalent barrel" or "equivalent MCF") on the basis of six
                 MCF of gas to one barrel of oil.
         (4)     The components of production costs may vary substantially
                 among wells, depending on the methods of recovery employed and
                 other factors, but generally include production taxes,
                 administrative overhead, workovers, maintenance and repair,
                 labor and utilities.

UNDEVELOPED ACREAGE

At February 8, 1994, the Company estimates that there were approximately 1,050
record holders of Class A Common Stock and 520 record holders of Class B Common
Stock.

The last reported sales prices of the Company's Class A Common Stock and Class
B Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange on February 8, 1994 were $2.00
and $2.25 per share, respectively.

From July 1987 through December 1992, the Company paid a quarterly cash
dividend of $.025 per share  on all outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock,
and has never paid dividends on Class B Common Stock.  In January 1993 the
Company announced the elimination of Class A Common Stock dividends.  The
Company's ability to pay dividends is currently subject to the provisions of
various covenants contained in the Company's revolving credit facility and
certain indentures relating to its public debt.

In addition to the factors discussed above, the determination of the amount of
any future cash dividends to be declared and paid on Class A Common Stock will
depend upon, among other things, the Company's financial condition, its cash
flow from operating activities, the level of the Company's capital and
exploration expenditures and its future business prospects.

The Company's historical results have been affected by a number of transactions
during the five years shown above, the most significant of which were: i) in
December 1989 the Company completed an acquisition for approximately $157
million in cash which was financed through the issuance in February 1990 of $50
million of 9% Convertible Subordinated Debentures, 10 million  shares of the
Company's Class A Common Stock at $7.50 per share and the incurrence of bank
debt; ii) as a result of the low oil and gas prices  received at certain times
during 1992 and 1991, the Company was required to reduce the carrying value of
its oil and gas properties by $15 million and $68 million, respectively; iii)
in July 1992, the Company completed the sale (the "MGRI Divestiture") of
Mountain Gas Resources, Inc. ("MGRI"), a subsidiary of the Company which then
owned its Wyoming gas gathering and processing business, as well as its
marketing operations (all of which have been accounted for as discontinued
operations) for net cash proceeds of $77.5 million which were used to prepay an
equivalent amount of bank debt; iv) in December 1992, the Company completed the
sale of its proved developed reserves and associated gathering systems in West
Virginia for net cash proceeds of $32.6 million which was used to repay bank
and other indebtedness of the Company; and v) in July 1993 the Company received
$11.6 million from the sale of the Company's remaining equity interest in MGRI
(the "MGRI Equity Sale") (which has been accounted for as discontinued
operations).

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto contained in Item 8 of
this Report.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's liquidity and capital resources have recently improved
substantially as a result of the Company's (i) receipt in July 1993 of $11.6
million from the MGRI Equity Sale, and the subsequent prepayment of an
equivalent amount of bank debt; (ii) sale of $75 million of Senior Secured
Notes, and the subsequent prepayment of $73.8 million of bank debt; (iii)
exchange of $99.8 million of Senior Gas Indexed Notes (the "New Notes") for an
equivalent amount of the Senior Subordinated Gas Indexed Notes (the "Old
Notes"), and the consequent elimination of principal payments of $99.8 million
in respect of the Old Notes during the period 1997 - 1999 and the extension of
the maturity of the New Notes three years later than the Old Notes; (iv)
amendment of its bank facility to provide for a new $25 million revolving
credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), and the improved financial
flexibility provided thereby; and (v) receipt of $22 million of proceeds from
asset sales completed in January 1994 of which $5 million was utilized to fully
prepay all of the indebtedness outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility.

RESERVE GROWTH

During 1993 the Company's proved oil and gas reserves increased to 63.5 million
equivalent barrels of oil ("BOE") from 58.7 million BOE at yearend 1992,
notwithstanding the divestiture of .7 million BOE and production of 4 million
BOE during 1993.  Most of this growth in reserves resulted from development
drilling operations, principally the extension of existing oil and gas fields;
and, to a lesser extent, from several smaller asset acquisitions.  Of such
total 63.5 million BOE of proved reserves at yearend 1993, 26.2 million BOE
(41%) were proved undeveloped reserves.  See Note 15 to the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report for
further information concerning the increase in the Company's reserves in 1993.

REVENUES AND CASH FLOWS

The Company's 1993 oil and gas revenues declined significantly vis-a-vis 1992,
primarily as a result of lower oil and gas production and sharply lower oil
prices, as partially offset by a small increase in gas prices.  A substantial
portion of the decrease in the Company's oil production and all of the decrease
in its gas production resulted from the divestiture of various non-strategic
oil and gas producing properties, with the remainder of the decrease in oil
production being due to lower production rates in several fields, all as
discussed in "Results of Operations" below.  In particular, the Company's cash
flow relating to operating activities has decreased in each of the past three
years such that the Company used $5.9 million in its operating activities in
1993, as compared to amounts provided by operating activities of $16 million in
1992 and $31.3 million in 1991.

In an effort to reverse this trend, the Company substantially increased its
capital expenditures in 1993 to $21 million, as compared to capital
expenditures of $15.9 million in 1992, and currently plans to spend a minimum
of $25-30 million annually on capital expenditures during the period 1994 -
1996, principally on drilling projects to develop its proved undeveloped
hydrocarbon reserves (which totaled 3.1 MMBbls of oil and 138.4 BCF of gas at
yearend 1993) in order to increase oil and gas production and the revenues and
operating cash flow generated therefrom.  The level of the Company's future oil
and gas production and related revenues, and thus its long-term liquidity, will
depend upon the results of such ongoing drilling operations and, in particular,
the development of its proved undeveloped hydrocarbon reserves.  These drilling
operations will in turn be affected by the level of funds available for capital
expenditures, as discussed below.





                                       14
   15
LONG-TERM DEBT

At February 8, 1994, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its
Revolving Credit Facility and, therefore, had available borrowing capacity
thereunder of $25 million.  The Company repaid the $15 million of bank debt
which was outstanding at December 31, 1993 with $5 million of the $22 million
of asset sale proceeds received during January 1994 and with $10 million of
cash and cash equivalents on hand at December 31, 1993.  Borrowings under the
Revolving Credit Facility are secured by mortgages on certain of the Company's
oil and gas properties (the "Mortgaged Properties") and bear interest at either
prime plus 1% or LIBOR plus 2 1/2%.  Borrowings under the Revolving Credit
Facility of up to $20 million may be utilized for developmental drilling and
certain other operations related to the Company's proved hydrocarbon reserves
and borrowings of up to $15 million may be used for seasonal working capital
purposes.

The other long-term debt of the Company consists of $50 million of 9%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures (the "Convertible Subordinated
Debentures"), $75 million of 11.5% Senior Secured Notes, and $100 million of
Gas Indexed Notes (comprised of $99,770,000 of New Notes and $230,000 of Old
Notes) currently bearing interest at 14.05% per annum and which will bear
interest at a rate of 13.925% per annum during the period February 16, 1994 to
May 15, 1994 in accordance with the terms of the indentures relating to such
Gas Indexed Notes.  See Note 3 to the Company's Consolidated Financial
Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report for information as to how
increases in spot gas prices resulting in sustained industry-wide average spot
gas prices exceeding a threshold price can trigger increases in the effective
rate of interest payable on the Gas Indexed Notes.  The Company is required to
certify at least once annually that the oil and gas properties  securing the
Senior Secured Notes meet certain coverage tests; and, at December 31, 1993,
such properties met such tests.  If such properties do not meet such tests, the
Company would be required to offer to purchase an amount of the Senior Secured
Notes equal to the deficiency or to cure such deficiency by pledging additional
oil and gas properties.

DEBT SERVICE

Assuming (i) interest on the Gas Indexed Notes to be no greater than 13.925%
(its level during the February 16 - May 15, 1994 period), (ii) the prime rate
to be 6% per annum (its level at February 8, 1994), and (iii) no further
increase in the Company's debt level from that as of February 8, 1994, the
Company would have no required principal payments due until 2000 and during
1994, 1995 and 1996 the Company would have annual estimated interest payments
due on all of its debt of approximately $27 million.  Accordingly, a
substantial amount of the Company's operating cash flow will be utilized during
such three-year period to pay interest expense, rather than being utilized in
the Company's development and exploratory drilling operations or in the
acquisition of producing properties.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

The Company's capital expenditures for its oil and gas operations totaled
approximately $21 million in 1993,  as compared to capital expenditures on such
operations of $15.9 million and $54.6 million in 1992 and 1991, respectively.
Of the capital expenditures made during 1993, $15.4 million was used in
development and recompletion activities, $3.0 million was used in exploratory
activities, and $2.6 million was used in various other activities, including
acquisitions of producing properties and undeveloped acreage.  In 1994 the
Company currently anticipates that it will make approximately $30.4 million of
capital expenditures, of which approximately $23.3 million will be used for
development drilling and related activities (principally to develop its proved
undeveloped oil and gas reserves), approximately $4.3 million will be used for
exploratory drilling, and approximately $2.8 million will be used to acquire
producing properties and undeveloped acreage.  Additionally, the Company
currently plans to spend a minimum of $25-30 million per annum on capital
expenditures during the 1995 - 1996 period.  Except for the Company's
commitment to spend $5 million per year on the Mortgaged Properties during the
three-year period ending October 1, 1996 contained in its Revolving Credit
Facility, the timing of most of the Company's capital expenditures is
discretionary and there





                                       15
   16
are currently no material long-term commitments associated with the Company's
capital expenditure plans.  Consequently, the Company has a significant degree
of flexibility to adjust the level of such expenditures as circumstances
warrant.

The Company funded its capital expenditures during 1993 primarily with bank
borrowings and the proceeds of asset sales.  In 1994 and thereafter, the
Company plans to increasingly rely upon the improving levels of cash flow from
its oil and gas operations to fund its ongoing capital expenditures, as well as
to meet its debt service obligations under the New Notes, the Senior Secured
Notes, the Old Notes, the Convertible Subordinated Debentures and any
indebtedness outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, as the Company
benefits from the increased levels of oil and gas production and related
revenues and cash flows that are anticipated to result from its 1994-1996
capital expenditures.  There can be no assurance, however, that such capital
expenditures will be successful and result in a sufficient level of revenues
and cash flow to both fund the Company's ongoing capital expenditures and
enable it to meet its debt service and other obligations; and, accordingly, in
such circumstances, the Company's discretionary capital spending would have to
be correspondingly reduced or it would have to make further asset sales or use
its available borrowing capacity under its Revolving Credit Facility, in order
to continue with its capital expenditures and meet its debt service and other
obligations as hereinabove discussed.  In addition, as discussed below, oil and
gas price declines would adversely impact the Company's operating cash flow.

MARKETS AND PRICES

The amount of funding for the Company's capital expenditures program, whether
derived from operating cash flow, bank borrowings or asset sales, may also be
significantly affected by changes in oil and gas prices.  Also, in addition to
having a negative impact on oil and gas markets, oil and gas price declines
have an adverse impact on the value of the Company's proved oil and gas
reserves.  A downward revision in the value of the Company's proved oil and gas
reserves could (i) impair the ability of the Company to obtain additional
financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures or other
purposes or (ii) cause the Company to be required to pledge additional oil and
gas properties to secure the Senior Secured Notes as discussed in "Long-Term
Debt" above.  Such changes in oil and gas prices depend on a number of factors
outside the control of the Company, such as actions taken by oil and gas
producing nations outside the United States, the availability of imported oil
and gas, the availability and marketing of competitive fuels, the fluctuating
seasonal demand for oil and gas, and the extent of governmental regulation of
the oil and gas industry.  As a result, an accurate prediction cannot be made
as to what the prices of oil and gas may be in future periods.

During 1993, the average prices received for oil and gas by the Company were
$14.55 per barrel and $1.73 per MCF, respectively, as compared to $16.68 per
barrel of oil and $1.71 per MCF of gas in 1992 and $17.53 per barrel of oil
($21.19 after giving effect to the Company's oil hedging arrangements) and
$1.54 per MCF of gas in 1991.  During the fourth quarter of 1993 and continuing
into January 1994, oil prices declined to a five-year low, such that during
January 1994 the average price received for oil by the Company was $10.26 per
barrel.  The Company estimates that (i) a $1.00 per barrel change in the
average oil price received by the Company would result in an estimated change
of approximately $1.3 million to both the Company's net income and cash flow
for 1994; and (ii) a $.10 per MCF change in the average gas price received by
the Company would result in an estimated change of approximately $1.9 million
to both the Company's net income and cash flow for 1994.  Therefore, any
substantial and extended decline in the price of oil or gas could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and its results of
operations.

A portion of the gas reserves sold to Belden & Blake in 1992 is subject to a
long-term gas contract providing for prices above the current spot market price
for West Virginia gas.  In connection with the sale, the Company guaranteed
certain minimum levels of performance, on an annual basis, by the gas purchaser
under this contract such that should performance under this contract be less
than the levels guaranteed by the Company, Belden & Blake can draw on a letter
of credit entered into by the Company (see Note 13 to the Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report).

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

EARNINGS (LOSS) FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS

The Company recognized losses from continuing operations of $18,783,000,
$32,696,000 and $76,112,000 for 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
Contributing to the losses during 1992 and 1991 were reductions in the carrying
value of the Company's oil and gas properties amounting to $15,000,000 and
$68,000,000, respectively.

         Oil and Gas Revenues.  Oil and gas revenues have decreased during the
         past two years due primarily to lower oil and gas production and lower
         oil prices, as partially offset by increases in gas prices during such
         periods.  Oil and gas production for 1993 decreased 23% and 21%,
         respectively from their levels for 1992.  Sales of certain producing
         properties accounted for 27% of the decrease in oil production and all
         of such decrease in gas production with the remaining decrease in oil
         production resulting from lower production rates in several
         significant fields.  Oil and gas production for 1992 decreased 33% and
         17%, respectively, from their levels for 1991.  Sales of certain
         producing properties accounted for 31% of the decrease in oil
         production and 50% of the decrease in gas production with the
         remainder being due to lower production rates in several significant
         fields.  The Company's average oil price for 1993 decreased 13% as
         compared to the average price for 1992 and the average oil price for
         1992 decreased 21% as compared to the average price for 1991.  The
         decrease in 1992 as compared to 1991 was due primarily to the absence
         in 1992 of certain oil hedging arrangements which  resulted in the
         receipt of $10,248,000 of additional revenues in 1991, and which
         increased the Company's average oil price per barrel for that year
         from $17.53 to $21.19.

         The following table reflects the average prices received for oil and
         gas and the amount of oil and gas production for 1993, 1992 and 1991.



                                                                 1993                1992               1991  
                                                               --------            --------           --------
                                               
                                                                                             
    Average Price:                             
           Oil and condensate (per Bbl)                        $14.55              $16.68             $17.53 (1)
           Gas (per MCF)                                       $ 1.73              $ 1.71 (2)         $ 1.54 (2)

           Oil and condensate (MBbls)                           1,436               1,877              2,798
           Gas (MMCF)                                          15,340              19,407             23,303


    (1)    Before giving effect to the Company's oil hedging arrangements.  The
           average price increased to $21.19 as a result of such oil hedging
           arrangements.  Such hedging arrangements expired December 31, 1991.
    (2)    In December 1992 the Company sold its West Virginia proved developed
           properties which had received an above-market contract price for gas
           sales.  The Company's pro forma gas price excluding such West
           Virginia properties was $1.54 and $1.38 for the years ended December
           31, 1992 and 1991, respectively.

    Operating Expenses.  Lease operating expenses, production taxes and
    depletion, depreciation and amortization have each decreased when comparing
    1993 to 1992 and when comparing 1992 to 1991.  The decrease in lease
    operating expenses was due primarily to the sale of various higher
    operating cost properties, including in particular the December 1992 sale
    of the Company's West Virginia proved developed properties, and also due to
    the increased operating efficiencies realized by the Company.  The decrease
    in production taxes resulted from the reduced oil and gas revenues received
    when compared to those received a year earlier.  The reduced amount of
    depletion, depreciation and amortization was due to a decrease in
    production (on an equivalent barrel basis), the reductions in the carrying
    value of the Company's oil and gas properties as described below, and an
    increase in the Company's reserves at a finding cost substantially below
    its depletion rate.





                                       17
   18
    Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for companies
    utilizing the full cost method of accounting, the carrying value of oil and
    gas properties is limited to the present value, as of the end of each
    fiscal quarter, of the estimated future net revenues from proved reserves
    using current pricing (with consideration of price changes only to the
    extent provided by contractual agreements), discounted at 10%, after
    adjusting for tax effects.  As a result of the declines in oil and gas
    prices during 1992 and 1991 the Company was required to reduce the carrying
    value of its oil and gas properties by $15,000,000 and $68,000,000,
    respectively.  No such reduction has been required since the first quarter
    of 1992.

    The following table shows certain costs associated with oil and gas
revenues per equivalent barrel of oil for 1993, 1992 and 1991.



                                                         1993                1992               1991  
                                                       --------            --------           --------
                                                                     (per equivalent barrel)
                                                
                                                                                      
    Production Costs                                    $4.10               $4.38              $4.84
    Depletion, Depreciation and Amortization            $4.60               $5.08              $5.57
                                        

    General and Administrative Expense.  General and administrative expense
    decreased 17% and 28% during 1993 and 1992, respectively, due to the
    consolidation and downsizing of certain of the Company's division offices
    and associated operations during 1991 and during the first half of 1992.
    The reduction in general and administrative expense during 1993 is also due
    in part to the Company's adoption of a new method of accounting for its
    Employee Stock Ownership Plan as discussed in Note 8 to the Company's
    Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report.

    Interest Expense.  The Company reduced its level of interest expense in
    1993 as compared to 1992 primarily due to a lower level of bank debt during
    1993.  The Company's bank debt averaged $48.7 million during 1993 as
    compared to the $98.8 million associated with continuing operations during
    1992.  Such decrease was the result of the Company's sale of its West
    Virginia proved developed reserves in December 1992 for $32.6 million, the
    MGRI Equity Sale in July 1993 for $11.6 million and the sale of a total of
    $75 million of Senior Secured Notes in August and November 1993, and the
    utilization of the proceeds of each of these sales to prepay bank debt.
    Also, the Company reduced the amount of amortization of deferred bank debt
    charges during 1993 as compared to 1992, due to the accelerated
    amortization of such costs during 1993 and 1992 which are included in debt
    repayment expense as discussed below.  These reductions to the Company's
    interest expense were partially offset by the interest expense on the
    Company's Senior Secured Notes issued during 1993 and due to the Company
    capitalizing less interest expense in 1993 as compared to 1992.

    The Company's bank debt balance averaged $140.5 million during 1992
    compared to $174.3 million during 1991.  Since $77.5 million of bank debt
    was repaid in July 1992 in connection with the MGRI  Divestiture, the
    interest expense on such debt through such date was charged to discontinued
    operations.  Therefore, the Company's bank debt balance associated with
    continuing operations averaged $98.8 million and $96.8 million during 1992
    and 1991, respectively.  The Company's interest expense for 1992 is higher
    than 1991 due to the increased amortization of deferred bank debt charges
    in 1992 and a lower level of interest expense capitalization during 1992
    than during 1991.  This more than offset the effect of the reduced average
    bank borrowing interest rate of 7.3% during 1992, compared to an average
    9.4% rate during 1991.

    Debt Repayment Expense.  Debt repayment expense for 1993 and 1992 includes
    the amortization of prepaid loan fees and costs associated with the
    Company's bank debt.  The Company accelerated the amortization of such
    costs in connection with the significant reduction of, and amendments to,
    the Company's bank debt during such periods.





                                       18
   19
    Income Taxes.  The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
    Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109") effective as
    of January 1, 1991.  SFAS 109 represents a new method of accounting for
    income taxes, and generally requires that deferred taxes be provided using
    an asset and liability approach at currently enacted income tax rates.  The
    adoption of SFAS 109 had no impact on net income for 1993, 1992 and 1991.
    The Company did not record a tax benefit associated with the losses
    incurred during 1993, 1992 and 1991, because a valuation allowance was
    provided for the deferred assets otherwise recorded.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS.

Discontinued operations reflect the results of the Company's Mountain Gas
Resources subsidiary which owned and operated the majority of the Company's gas
gathering, processing and marketing operations and which was sold in July 1992.
The components of the results of discontinued operations are shown in the table

         (1)     Reflects operations through July 16, 1992

The results from discontinued operations for 1992 include operations only
through July 1992, while those for 1991 include operations for the entire year.

INFLATION.

In recent years inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's
operations.  Although oil and gas prices have significantly fluctuated during
such periods, the Company has generally experienced a decline in the costs
incurred to acquire quality exploration and development prospects as well as in
the costs of drilling and completing wells.

ITEM 8.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.



                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT





Presidio Oil Company:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Presidio Oil
Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993.  Our audits also
included the financial statement schedules listed in the List of Documents
Filed at Item 14.  These financial statements and the financial statement
schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and
financial statement schedules 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 management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Presidio Oil Company and
subsidiaries at December 31, 1993 and 1992 and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1993 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  Also, in
our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to
the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in
all material respects the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
changed its method of accounting for its employee stock ownership plan
effective January 1, 1993.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
              For the Years Ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991



1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements present the financial
position of Presidio Oil Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the
"Company" or "Presidio").

Certain accounts for the years ended December 31, 1992 and 1991 have been
reclassified to conform to the classifications for the year ended December 31,
1993.

The Company's Senior Subordinated Gas Indexed Notes, Senior Gas Indexed Notes
and Senior Secured Notes  (collectively the "Notes") are guaranteed by all
significant subsidiaries of the Company (the "Guarantors").  Separate financial
statements of the Guarantors are not included herein because the Guarantors
have fully, unconditionally, jointly and severally guaranteed the Company's
obligations with respect to the Notes and the Company (which is primarily a
holding company and whose operating income is generated by its subsidiaries)
has no separate operations of its own.  The operations, assets, liabilities and
equity of the subsidiaries of the Company that are not Guarantors are
inconsequential.

Property, Plant and Equipment and Depletion, Depreciation and Amortization

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas
producing activities whereby all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration
and development of oil and gas properties are capitalized.  Sales of oil and
gas properties are recorded as an adjustment of capitalized costs, with no gain
or loss recognized.  Capitalized costs are subject to a ceiling limitation test
based on a computed value of the Company's present value of estimated future
net revenues from proved reserves using current prices (with consideration of
price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements),
discounted at 10%, after adjusting for tax effects at the end of each period.
Due to the low oil and gas prices being received at certain times during 1992
and 1991, the Company was required to reduce the carrying value of its oil and
gas properties by $15,000,000 and $68,000,000, respectively, in such years.

The provision for depletion, depreciation and amortization of oil and gas
properties is calculated by multiplying current period oil and gas production
by a rate which is determined by dividing capitalized oil and gas costs (except
for costs of certain unevaluated acreage discussed below) plus estimated future
development costs, by the quantities of estimated proved oil and gas reserves.
The Company excludes investments in unevaluated acreage from costs to be
amortized pending determination as to the existence of proved reserves on such
acreage.  The Company's unevaluated acreage is subject to a periodic review for
impairment and, if necessary, the amount of impairment is included in the costs
to be amortized.  The Company capitalizes interest on unevaluated properties
not subject to amortization.  The Company capitalized interest of $1,278,000,
$2,639,000, and $4,882,000 (out of total interest costs, including amounts
associated with discontinued operations, of $26,312,000, $33,880,000 and
$37,864,000) for the years ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991,
respectively.

liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been
recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements or tax returns
(see Note 5).

(1) As of January 1, 1993 the Company adopted a new method of accounting for
    its Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") which requires unallocated
    shares held by the ESOP to be excluded from outstanding shares for purposes
    of calculating loss per share.  The N/A for the years ended December 31,
    1992 and 1991 indicates that such new accounting method does not apply to
    such years and, therefore, the weighted average number of unallocated
    shares held by the ESOP for the years ended December 31, 1992 and 1991 of
    1,324,000 and 1,032,000, respectively, were reflected as outstanding for
    purposes of calculating loss per common share.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  (Continued)



Deferred Charges

The Company records the fees and expenses associated with its bank and public
debt as deferred charges and amortizes such costs to interest expense over the
life of the debt using the effective interest method.  Debt repayment expense
reflects the accelerated amortization of certain of such costs during the years
ended December 31, 1993 and 1992.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

The Company considers investments purchased with an original maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.  Included in the Consolidated Statements
of Cash Flows is $23,945,000, $29,365,000 and $28,901,000 of interest paid,
including amounts paid associated with discontinued operations, net of amounts
capitalized, during the years ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991,
respectively.  During the year ended December 31, 1993, $99,770,000 of Senior
Subordinated Gas Indexed Notes were exchanged for an equivalent amount of
Senior Gas Indexed Notes (see Note 3); and, insofar as such exchange was a
non-cash transaction, it was not reflected in the Consolidated Statements of
Cash Flows.

Gas Balancing Arrangements

The Company uses the entitlement method of recording gas revenues.  Under such
method, sales are recorded based upon the Company's proportionate share of gas
sold.  The Company then records a receivable (payable) to the extent it sells
less (more) than its proportionate share of the revenues.  At December 31, 1993
and 1992, the Company had net gas balancing liabilities of $3,930,000
associated with approximately 2.1 billion cubic feet ("BCF") of gas and
$4,170,000 associated with 2 BCF of gas, respectively.

2.  BANK DEBT

At December 31, 1993, the Company had bank debt of $15,000,000 outstanding
under a $25 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit
Facility").  The Company had $73,000,000 outstanding under an $80 million bank
credit agreement at December 31, 1992.  The substantial decrease in the
Company's bank debt balance at December 31, 1993 as compared to December 31,
1992 is primarily due to repayments resulting from the sale of the Company's
Senior Secured Notes as discussed in Note 3.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by mortgages on
certain of the Company's oil and gas properties (the "Mortgaged Properties")
and bear interest at either prime plus 1% or LIBOR plus 2 1/2%.  Borrowings
under the Revolving Credit Facility of up to $20 million may be utilized for
developmental drilling and certain other operations related to the Company's
proved hydrocarbon reserves and borrowings of up to $15 million may be used for
seasonal working capital purposes.  The Revolving Credit Facility requires (i)
regular quarterly commitment reductions of approximately $1.56 million
beginning on October 1, 1995 through July 1, 1999, (ii) additional commitment
reductions equal to 100% of the proceeds realized from the sale of Mortgaged
Properties, (iii) 75% of the proceeds realized from the sale of certain other
assets to be utilized to develop hydrocarbon reserves, (iv) capital
expenditures of not less than $5 million per annum during the three-year period
ending October 1, 1996 in respect of the development of the Mortgaged
Properties, and (v) the Company's ratio of bank debt to total capitalization
(excluding the effect of any reduction in the carrying amount of oil and gas
properties) to be no greater than .15 on the last day of each quarter, and its

ratio of each quarter's operating cash flow plus the net proceeds of asset
sales to cash dividends, cash interest and scheduled debt payments due within
the following quarter to be greater than 1.

At December 31, 1993, the estimated minimum principal repayments associated
with the Revolving Credit Facility were $0, $10,000,000 $0, $0 and $313,000
in each of the years 1994 through 1998.  However, subsequent to December 31,
1993 the Company fully prepaid the indebtedness outstanding under the
Revolving Credit Facility with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of
certain oil and gas properties as discussed in Note 14, and thus no repayments
are due under the Revolving Credit Facility.

3.       GAS INDEXED NOTES; SENIOR SECURED NOTES

On August 6, 1993, the Company completed various transactions (the "Private
Exchange") with certain holders (and their affiliates) (the "Holders") of the
Company's Senior Subordinated Gas Indexed Notes Due 1999 (the "Old Notes"),
pursuant to which a total of $75 million aggregate principal amount of the Old
Notes was exchanged for an equivalent principal amount of the Company's
newly-issued Senior Gas Indexed Notes Due 2002 (the "New Notes") and the
Holders purchased $56.25 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's
11.5% Senior Secured Notes Due 2000 (the "Senior Secured Notes").  The net
proceeds of the sale of the Senior Secured Notes were used to prepay $55
million of bank debt.

On November 30, 1993, the Company completed a public exchange offer (the
"Exchange Offer") pursuant to which (i) $24.77 million of the $25 million of
the Old Notes remaining after the Private Exchange were exchanged for an
equivalent principal amount of the New Notes and (ii) $18.75 million of Senior
Secured Notes were sold with the proceeds of such sale being used to prepay
bank debt.

The terms of the New Notes are generally the same as those of the Old Notes,
except that the New Notes:  (i) rank pari passu with other senior debt of the
Company (including bank debt and the Senior Secured Notes, as discussed below,
which are also secured by mortgages on certain of the Company's oil and gas
properties which provide preferential claims to such properties) and rank senior
to the Old Notes; (ii) mature in 2002 and have no sinking fund requirements;
(iii) have a 15% maximum interest rate above which the 13.25% base interest
rate may not be increased as a result of the gas indexing feature as discussed
below (which is the same as that in the Old Notes), instead of the 18% maximum
contained in the Old Notes; and (iv) are redeemable, at the option of the
Company, at the prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) and
during the indicated years beginning August 15:  1996 - 106%; 1997 - 103%; and
1998 - 100%.  Both the Old Notes and New Notes bear interest at a base rate of
13.25% per annum.  Concurrently with each quarterly interest payment the
Company will pay to the holders additional interest, if any, based upon the
amount by which the average gas spot price ("Average Spot Price") based upon
spot gas prices published by Natural Gas Clearinghouse, Inc., exceeds $1.75 per
million British Thermal Units (MMBTU) during a twelve-month period preceding
such quarterly interest payment period up to a maximum overall interest rate of
15% per annum for the New Notes and 18% for the Old Notes.  At December 31,
1993, the twelve-month Average Spot Price was $2.02 per MMBTU resulting in an
interest rate of 13.925% per annum for the period February 16, 1994 to May 15,
1994.

The Senior Secured Notes:  (i) rank pari passu with other senior debt of the
Company (including bank debt and the New Notes) and rank senior to the Old
Notes and the Company's Convertible Subordinated Debentures; (ii) are secured
by a mortgage on certain of the Company's oil and gas properties, with the
amount and type of such properties being subject to adjustment, based upon the
value of the properties and

certain other factors; and (iii) are redeemable, at the option of the Company,
at the prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) and during the
indicated years beginning September 15:  1996 - 103%; 1997 -102%; 1998 - 101%;
and 1999 - 100%.

4.       CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

In February 1990 the Company issued $50,000,000 in aggregate principal amount
of its 9% Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2015 (the "Convertible
Subordinated Debentures").  The Convertible Subordinated Debentures are
currently convertible at any time prior to redemption or maturity into Class A
Common Stock, at a conversion price per share of $9.38, subject to adjustment.
The Convertible Subordinated Debentures will be redeemable through the
operation of a mandatory sinking fund pursuant to which on March 15 in each of
the years 2000 to 2014 (the "Redemption Period") 5% of the outstanding
principal amount of the Convertible Subordinated Debentures will be redeemed at
100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest.  At its option, the
Company may make additional sinking fund payments in amounts sufficient to
redeem annually up to an additional 10% of the outstanding principal amount of
the Convertible Subordinated Debentures.  The Convertible Subordinated
Debentures are redeemable, otherwise than through the mandatory sinking
fund, at the Company's option, at 107% of their principal amount plus accrued 
interest through March 15, 1994 and thereafter reducing by 1% each year to 
100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest at March 15, 2000 and 
thereafter.

5.       INCOME TAXES

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109") effective as of January 1, 1991.
SFAS 109 represents a new method of accounting for income taxes, and it
generally requires that deferred taxes be calculated using an asset and
liability approach at currently enacted income tax rates.  The adoption of SFAS
109 had no cumulative effect on the date of adoption or effect on net income
for the year ended December 31, 1991.  The Company recorded no benefit from
income taxes during the years ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, because a
valuation allowance was provided for the deferred assets otherwise recorded.

Actual tax expense (benefit) differs from the statutory rate as shown below:



                                                                          Years Ended December 31,

not previously utilized.  The Company's net operating losses are subject to
various restrictions that could significantly limit their utilization.  The
Company has investment tax credit carryforwards of approximately $583,000
expiring 1994 through 2000 if not previously utilized.  The Company also has

6.  COMMON STOCK

The Company has two classes of common stock, Class A Common Stock and Class B
Common Stock.  Each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible into one share
of Class A Common Stock.  Both classes of common stock are $.10 par value per
share.  There are 80,000,000 authorized shares of Class A Common Stock and
20,000,000 authorized shares of Class B Common Stock.

From July 1987 through December 1992, the Company paid a quarterly cash
dividend of $.025 on its Class A Common Stock.  In January 1993 the Company
announced the elimination of Class A Common Stock dividends.  If cash dividends
are paid on Class B Common Stock, a cash dividend must also be paid on Class A
Common Stock in an amount equal to 110% of the per share amount of the cash
dividend paid on Class B Common Stock.  The Company's ability to pay dividends
is subject to the provisions of certain covenants contained in the Revolving
Credit Facility and the indentures relating to the New Notes and the Old Notes.
Holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one-twentieth of one vote per 
share and holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share.

                                  (Continued)




The Class B Common Stock is subject to certain restrictions on transfer
designed to prevent the sale of "control blocks" of Class B Common Stock at a
premium price not available to all holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B
Common Stock.  No transfer of Class B Common Stock may be made (i) if the
transferee thereof would, as a result of such transfer, have acquired from such
transferor, within the last twelve months, in excess of 15% of the total voting
power of all outstanding shares of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B
Common Stock, (a "Control Block"), and (ii) if any of the shares held by the
transferee comprising the Control Block were acquired by such transferee within
twelve months of the proposed transfer at a price in excess of the market price
when acquired; unless such transferee, concurrently with the proposed transfer,
offers to purchase all of the outstanding shares of both the Class A Common
Stock and the Class B Common Stock at a price not less than the highest price
per share paid, within twelve months of the proposed transfers by such
transferee, to the transferor with respect to any of the shares comprising the
Control Block.  Presidio can refuse to recognize any transfer of shares made in
violation of this limitation, including for purposes of voting and dividend
rights, and to require the sale of any such shares.  Except for this
limitation, shares of both the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common
Stock are freely transferable.

Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, purchased for $90,000 a

price of $4.00 per share which was the market value of the common stock on the
date of purchase.  Such warrant, which expires in 1997, has been subsequently
adjusted for a 10% stock dividend and during 1993 was amended and restated such
that the warrant now provides for the acquisition of 94,091 shares of Class B
Common Stock and 9,409 shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of $3.64 per
share and 16,206 shares of Class B Common Stock and 1,621 shares of Class A

Robert L. Smith, President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company,
purchased warrants from the Company for $75,000 and $40,000, respectively.
These warrants, which expire in 1997, were to acquire 75,000 shares and 40,000
shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.625 per
share, which equalled or exceeded the market value of such stock on the date of
purchase.  During 1993 Mr. Giard's and Mr. Smith's warrants were amended and
restated and now provide for Mr. Giard to acquire 46,912 shares of Class B
Common Stock at $2.50 per share and Mr. Smith to acquire 20,000 shares of Class
B Common Stock at $4.625 per share and 10,811 shares of Class B Common Stock at

7.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In connection with the sale of Mountain Gas Resources ("MGRI") (see Note 12),
George P. Giard, Jr. and Robert L. Smith entered into consulting agreements
with MGRI which provided for Mr. Giard and Mr. Smith to provide consulting
services to MGRI for a minimum period of two years; and, in respect of such
consulting services, they each received options to purchase 6,000 shares of
Class A Common Stock of MGRI at an exercise price of $60.00 per share.  In July
1993 Mr. Giard and Mr. Smith each received proceeds of $281,000 as a result of
the sale of such options in connection with the MGRI Equity Sale.

See Note 6 for information as to the purchase of warrants from the Company by
certain of the Company's officers.

8.  BENEFIT PLANS

On May 17, 1990 the Company's stockholders amended the 1985 Incentive and
Non-Qualified Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Rights Plan.  Under such
amended plan, options to purchase up to 6,000,000 shares of the Company's Class
A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock may be granted to key employees at an
exercise price not less than the market price of the stock at the date of
grant.  The amended plan also allows for the issuance of stock appreciation
rights in conjunction with the issuance of options to key employees and
provides for granting of non-qualified stock options or incentive stock
options.  The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors determines the
number of options and exercise prices under which stock options or stock
appreciation rights are issued.  At December 31, 1993, no stock appreciation
rights had been granted.  The stock options either:  (i) vest incrementally
over four years; or (ii) vest after one year but are not exercisable until the
closing price of the Company's Class B Common Stock has been $6.00 per share or
greater for sixty consecutive trading days.

The Company's stockholders approved Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plans
which granted options to purchase up to 294,900 shares of the Company's Class B
Common Stock to non-employee directors.  Stock options granted under these
plans:  (i) vest incrementally over four years; or (ii) vest after one year but
are not exercisable until the closing price of the Company's stock has been
$6.00 per share or greater for sixty consecutive trading days.  These options
were granted at an exercise price of not less than the market price of the
stock on the date of grant and expire after ten years.

The Company has an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") which allows the
Company to make contributions as determined each year by the Compensation
Committee of the Company's Board of Directors.  The ESOP is leveraged with
loans provided by the Company.  Shares are allocated to
participants based on the principal payments made each year in respect of such
loans by the ESOP.  All full-time employees are eligible to participate in the
ESOP after one year of service.  The amounts charged to general and 
administrative expense in connection with the ESOP for the years ended 
December 31, 1992 and 1991 were based upon the historical cost paid by the 
ESOP for the shares contributed to the participant accounts during such years.
Effective January 1, 1993 the Company adopted a new method of accounting for 
the ESOP which requires the amounts charged to expense (which is associated 
with the shares contributed each year to the participants accounts) to be 
based on the market price of the Company's Common Stock, with the difference 
between the historical cost paid by the ESOP for such shares and the average 
market price of the Company's Common Stock, to be charged to additional 
paid-in capital.  In addition, George P. Giard, Jr. and Robert L. Smith 
receive retirement benefits from the Company under a supplemental employee 
retirement plan ("SERP") in excess of the contributions which may be made on 
their behalf by the Company to the ESOP.  The total amounts charged to general
and administrative expense in connection with the ESOP and the SERP for the 
years ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, were $438,000, $1,056,000 and 
$1,339,000, respectively.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value for
each class of financial instruments:

(1)      The fair value is an estimate and does not necessarily represent the
         amount that would be paid in an actual sale.
(2)      The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short
         maturity of those instruments.
(3)      The carrying amount approximates fair value because such debt is
         secured by a portion of the Company's oil and gas assets and bears
         interest at the prime rate plus 1% which approximates current market
         conditions.
(4)      The fair value was estimated based on quoted market prices.
(5)      The fair value was estimated based on the fees to be incurred in
         connection with the letters of credit since, under present
         circumstances, no amounts will be required to be drawn against such
         letters of credit.

11.      MAJOR PURCHASERS

Sales to two purchasers of $11,541,000 and $9,078,000 accounted for 24% and
19%, respectively, of the Company's oil and gas revenues during the year ended
December 31, 1993.  Sales to two purchasers of $12,423,000 and $9,088,000
accounted for 19% and 14%, respectively, of the Company's oil and gas revenues
during the year ended December 31, 1992.  Sales to two purchasers of
$10,665,000 and $10,613,000 each accounted for 11% of the Company's oil and gas
revenues during the year ended December 31, 1991.  A discontinuance of oil and
gas sales to these two purchasers would not have a material impact on the
Company's operations because the Company believes that a number of other
companies are available to purchase its oil and gas production.

12.      DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In July 1992 the Company completed a transaction with MS Gas Resources, Inc., a
newly-formed subsidiary of The Morgan Stanley Leveraged Equity Fund II, L.P.
(the "Morgan Stanley Fund"), pursuant to which the Company's wholly-owned
subsidiary, Mountain Gas Resources, Inc., was merged into MS Gas Resources (the
"MGRI Divestiture") whose name was then changed to Mountain Gas Resources, Inc.
("MGRI").  Prior to the MGRI Divestiture, Mountain Gas Resources owned and
operated all of the Company's natural gas gathering and processing facilities
in the Green River Basin in southwestern Wyoming and marketed natural gas and
natural gas liquids.  The cash consideration received in the MGRI Divestiture
was $80.7 million; and, as adjusted for working capital, capital expenditures
and other items, resulted in net cash proceeds of $77.5 million which was used
to prepay an equivalent amount of bank debt.  Also, in connection with the MGRI
Divestiture, the Company received an equity interest in MGRI.  Such interest
provided the Company with the

right to share in any profits realized upon a subsequent sale of MGRI prior to
December 31, 1996.  In July 1993 the Company received $11.6 million from the
sale (the "MGRI Equity Sale") of such equity interest in MGRI.  The proceeds of
the MGRI Equity Sale were used to prepay an equivalent amount of the Company's
bank debt.

The MGRI Divestiture and the MGRI Equity Sale have been recorded as a sale of a
segment of the Company's business.  Accordingly, the gas gathering, processing
and marketing operations of Mountain Gas Resources prior to the MGRI
Divestiture (which includes interest expense of $3,376,000 and $7,338,000 for
the years ended December 31, 1992 and 1991, respectively, that was associated
with the $77.5 million of bank debt that was repaid with the net cash proceeds
of the MGRI Divestiture), as well as the gain on the sale of MGRI Divestiture
and the MGRI Equity Sale have been reflected in the Company's Consolidated
Statements of Operations as discontinued operations.  Such discontinued
operations had revenues of $38,301,000 and $58,381,000 for the years ended
December 31, 1992 and 1991, respectively (including $941,000 and $2,510,000 of
intercompany sales).

13.      WEST VIRGINIA PROPERTY SALE

In December 1992 the Company completed the sale of the common stock of its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, Peake Energy, Inc. and Peake Operating Company (the
"Subsidiaries"), to Belden & Blake Acquisition, Inc. ("Belden & Blake").  The
proceeds of the transaction totaled $35 million; and, after adjustments for
capital expenditures, net operating cash flow and other items, the net cash
proceeds were $32.6 million, which were utilized to repay bank and other
indebtedness of the Company.  The Subsidiaries held assets which included
approximately 43 BCF of proved developed gas reserves and associated gathering
systems, as well as 50,000 barrels of oil reserves located in West Virginia.

The Company retained approximately 28 BCF of proved undeveloped gas reserves
and over 90,000 net undeveloped acres in West Virginia subsequent to the sale,
and such reserves and acreage will be developed by the Company and Belden &
Blake in accordance with a joint drilling participation agreement.  This
agreement gives Belden & Blake the option to participate, to the extent of 50%
of the Company's interest (or more by mutual consent), in the development of
such reserves and acreage.  The consideration for Belden & Blake's
participation in each well drilled pursuant to the joint drilling participation
agreement is (i) payment of its share of drilling and completion costs, (ii)
payment to the Company of an additional $90 per net acre for its share of the
drillsite acreage allocated to each such well and (iii) payment to the Company
of an overriding royalty of 3.125% (proportionately reduced) in accordance with
its net interest in the revenues attributable to each such well.  The Company
believes that virtually all of its proved undeveloped gas reserves and unproved
undeveloped acreage will be fully developed prior to the termination of the
joint drilling participation agreement in 2008; however, the agreement provides
that 50% of any such reserves and/or acreage that might be retained by the
Company as of such termination date would be conveyed to Belden & Blake for
no additional consideration.

A portion of the gas reserves sold to Belden & Blake is subject to a long-term
gas contract providing for prices above the current spot market price for West
Virginia gas.  In connection with the sale, the Company guaranteed certain
minimum levels of performance, on an annual basis, by the gas purchaser under
this contract such that should performance under this contract be less than the
levels guaranteed by the Company, Belden & Blake can draw on a letter of credit
entered into by the Company.  During the years ending April 1, 1994 through
1999, respectively, the following amounts can be drawn by Belden & Blake on
such letter of credit:  $1,942,000, $1,877,000, $1,790,000, $1,735,000,
$1,692,000 and $1,656,000.

14.      EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 1993

In January 1994 the Company realized $22 million as a result of certain oil and
gas property sales, including $7 million from its ongoing program to sell
miscellaneous small, non-operated oil and gas properties, as well as $15
million from the sale of a 50% interest in a partly- developed gas field in
Louisiana.  Approximately $5 million of the net cash proceeds from these sales
was utilized to prepay all of the outstanding indebtedness under the Revolving
Credit Facility and the remaining $17 million was added to the Company's
working capital and will be utilized to fund a portion of the Company's 1994
capital expenditure program.

Estimated Quantities of Proved Oil and Gas Reserves (Unaudited)

Reserve information presented below is based upon reports reviewed by the
Company's independent petroleum engineering firms.  Reserve estimates are
inherently imprecise and estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise than
those of producing oil and gas properties.  Accordingly, these estimates are
expected to change as future information becomes available.

Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of oil, gas and

(1)      Due to low oil and gas prices which were being received during these
         periods, the Company was required to reduce the carrying value of its
         oil and gas properties (see Note 1).
(2)      Includes a $7.8 million gain on the divestiture of the Company's
         discontinued gas gathering, processing and marketing operations (see
         Note 12).
(3)      Includes a $11.6 million gain on the sale of the Company's remaining
         equity interest in its discontinued gas gathering, processing and
         marketing operations (see Note 12).
(4)      Per share amounts have been restated for the first three quarters of
         1993 due to a change of accounting method adopted by the Company
         during the fourth quarter of 1993 (see Notes 1 and 8).
