                          and as of December 31, 1999

1.   Organization and Basis of Presentation of Interim Consolidated Financial
     Statements

 The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and
 its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been prepared pursuant to the rules and
 regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information in
 footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
 accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
 omitted pursuant to these rules and regulations.  The unaudited consolidated
 financial statements included in this report reflect all the adjustments,
 consisting of normal recurring accruals, which the Company considers necessary
 for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods
 covered and for the financial condition of the Company at the date of the
 interim balance sheet. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily
 indicative of results for the year.

 The financial statements included in this report should be read in conjunction
 with the Company's 1999 audited consolidated financial statements and
 accompanying notes included in the Company's 1999 Form 10-K, filed under the
 Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

3.   Senior Credit Agreement and Dividend Restrictions

     The Company's Senior Credit Agreement restricts the Company from paying
     dividends on its capital stock unless the total funded debt to capital
     ratio (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) is less than or equal to
     40%. The Company's total funded debt to capital ratio (calculated as
     defined under the Senior Credit Agreement) was 41.0% at March 31, 2000.

4.   Comprehensive Income (Loss)

     In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
     No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" which established new rules for
     the reporting and display of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is
     defined by SFAS No. 130 as net income plus direct adjustments to
     shareholders' equity. The cumulative translation adjustment of certain
     foreign entities is the only such direct adjustment recorded by the
     Company. Comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and
     1999 was as follows:

6.  Proposed Merger with Varco International, Inc.

    In the first quarter of 2000, the Company entered into a merger agreement
    with Varco International, Inc. (Varco), a leading provider of drilling
    equipment and machinery and rig instrumentation for oil and gas well
    drilling worldwide. The proposed merger is subject to stockholder approval
    and is expected to be accounted for as a pooling-of-interest. If the merger
    is completed, 0.7125 shares of the Company's common stock will be exchanged
    for each share of Varco common stock. The shares of the Company's common
    stock to be issued to Varco common stockholders are expected to represent
    approximately 51% of the outstanding stock of the Company after the merger.

7.  $100.0 Million Senior Notes and Condensed Consolidating Financial
    Information

    On February 25, 1998, the Company issued $100.0 million of 7 1/2% Senior
    Notes due 2008 ("Notes"). The Notes are fully and unconditionally
    guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, by certain wholly-owned
    subsidiaries of the Company (collectively "Guarantor Subsidiaries" and
    individually "Guarantor"). Each of the guarantees is an unsecured obligation
    of the Guarantor and ranks pari passu with the guarantees provided by and
    the obligations of such Guarantor Subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement
    and with all existing and future unsecured indebtedness of such Guarantor
    for borrowed money that is not, by its terms, expressly subordinated in
    right of payment to such guarantee. The remaining net proceeds have been
    used to finance acquisitions, working capital and general corporate
    purposes. The following condensed consolidating balance sheet as of March
    31, 2000 and related condensed consolidating statements of operations and
    cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2000 should be read in
    conjunction with the notes to these consolidated financial statements.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
         Financial Condition

General Operating Environment Overview:

The Company's financial results for the first quarter of 2000 improved over 1999
results as a result of increased demand for products and services directly
related to stronger rig activity in North America. The U.S. and Canada rig
activity were up 39.5% and 65.5%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2000
compared to the same period of 1999. These improvements were slightly offset by
a decline in international rig activity which fell 7.1% in the first quarter of
2000 compared to the first quarter of 1999. Sequentially, rig activity was down
less than 1% in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2000 compared to the fourth
quarter of 1999. Canada rig activity was up 42.4% for the first quarter of 2000
compared to the final quarter of 1999. International activity remained flat, up
less than 1%, in the first quarter of 2000 compared to the last quarter of 1999.

The increase in North America rig activity for the first quarter of 2000
compared to 1999 activity was precipitated by an increase in oil and gas prices.
The price of West Texas Intermediate Oil, which was as high as $22.04 per barrel
in the fourth quarter of 1997, declined throughout 1998 and into the first
quarter of 1999 (reaching decade lows of $12.95 per barrel and $12.97 per
barrel in the fourth quarter of 1998 and first quarter of 1999, respectively).
Beginning in the second quarter of 1999, West Texas Intermediate Oil prices
began to recover. West Texas Intermediate Oil prices strengthened throughout the
remainder of 1999 and into 2000, finishing with an average price of $28.82 per
barrel in the first quarter of 2000. This recovery in oil prices is primarily
the result of an agreement between certain major oil producers to limit
worldwide oil production.  There can be no assurances that these producers will
comply with the self-imposed limitations on oil production, or continue their
agreement, or that the improvement in oil prices will stabilize or continue.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 and 1999

Revenue.  Revenue was $108.7 million for the first quarter of 2000, an increase
of $13.5 million (or 14%) compared to the first quarter of 1999.  The increase
was due mainly to greater revenue from Western Hemisphere operations, especially
in the Tubular Services and Solids Control product lines as a result of the
increase in rig activity discussed above.

Revenue from the Company's Tubular Services product line, comprised of
Inspection, Coating, and Mill Systems and Sales, was $46.9 million for the first
three months of 2000. This represented an increase of $8.6 million (or 22%)
compared to the prior year period. The majority of the increase was due to
greater revenue in North America Inspection and Coating operations. The
Company's fiberglass tubular operation, part of North America Coating, was
especially strong with a revenue increase of 76% over the first three months of
1999. European inspection and coating operations remained slow in the first
quarter of 2000 and offset some of the gains in North America.

Solids Control revenue was $37.1 million in the first quarter of 2000, an
increase of $8.6 million (or 30%) compared to the same period of 1999. The
increase was due mainly to strong rental and service operations in North
America. Canada's Solids Control operation increased 105%. In addition, Latin
America operations also reported strong increases. Revenue from Solids Control
equipment sales was down, slightly offsetting the increases in North America and
Latin America rental and services business.

Coiled Tubing & Wireline Products revenue was $16.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, representing a decrease of $2.9 million (or 15%) compared
to the same period of 1999. The decrease was due to the lag effect the most
recent decline in oilfield activity has had on spending by the Company's
customers on new coiled tubing and wireline units. The improving market
environment began to have an impact on the Company's backlog for Coiled Tubing &
Wireline Products, as backlog increased 34% to $24.0 million at March 31, 2000
from $17.9 million at December 31, 1999.

Pipeline & Other Industrial Services revenue was $8.0 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2000, representing a decrease of $0.7 million (or 8%)
compared to the same period of 1999. The decline was mainly due to lower revenue
in the Eastern Hemisphere for Pipeline Services operations.

                                       11


Gross Profit. Gross profit was $25.2 million (23% of revenue) in the first
quarter of 2000, a $5.9 million (or 30%) increase over the first quarter 1999
gross profit of $19.3 million (20% of revenue). The improvement in the 2000
gross profit dollars and percentages was due to the higher revenue discussed
above.

Selling, General, and Administrative Costs. Selling, general and administrative
costs were $11.8 million in the first quarter of 2000, a decrease of $0.5
million (4%) from the same period of 1999. The decrease was due to cost
constraints implemented throughout 1999 and maintained in the first quarter of
2000.

Research and Engineering Costs. Research and engineering costs were $2.9 million
in both the first quarters of 2000 and 1999. The majority of the research and
engineering costs related to the development of new Pipeline tools, and new
product development and existing product improvement in the Solids Control,
Coating, Inspection, and Coiled Tubing product lines.

Operating Profit.  Operating profit was $10.4 million for the first quarter of
2000 compared to operating profit of $4.0 million in the same period of 1999.
The increase in operating profit in 2000 was due to the factors discussed above.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $4.7 million and $4.5 million in the
three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The slight increase
was due to higher interest rates on the Company's term and revolving debt.

Other Expense (Income). Other expense, which includes interest income, foreign
exchange, minority interest, and other expense (income), resulted in net other
expense of $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2000 and other income of $1.0
million in the first quarter of 1999. The first quarter 1999 other income
included foreign exchange gains of $1.1 million related to a strong U.S. dollar
and the collection of U.S. dollar receivables on the books of foreign entities.

Provision for Income Taxes. The Company had tax provisions of $2.5 million and
$0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
These provisions represented effective tax rates of 48% and 40% for the
respective periods. The provisions were higher than the expected U.S. tax rate
of 35% mainly due to charges not allowed under domestic and foreign
jurisdictions related to goodwill amortization and foreign earnings subject to
tax rates differing from domestic rates.

Net Income.  Net income for the first quarter of 2000 and 1999 was $2.8 million
and $0.3 million, respectively.  The improvement in the first quarter of 2000
was due to the factors discussed above.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

March 31, 2000

For the three months ended March 31, 2000, cash provided by operating activities
was $5.3 million compared to $18.0 million for the three months ended March 31,
1999.  Cash was provided by operations through net income of $2.8 million plus
non-cash charges of $9.0 million, a decrease in inventory of $1.3 million, an
increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $2.2 million, and an
increase in federal and foreign income taxes payable of $1.4 million.  Inventory
declined due to equipment sales and concentrated efforts to reduce inventory
levels.  Accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and federal and foreign income
taxes payable increased due to greater activity.  These items were offset to
some extent during the first three months of 2000 by an increase in accounts
receivable of $11.5 million. The increase in accounts receivable was due to a 7%
increase in revenue in the first quarter of 2000 compared to the fourth quarter
of 1999.

For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Company used $3.0 million of cash
for investing activities compared to $8.4 million for the same period of 1999.
Capital expenditures of $4.6 million for the first three months of 2000 were
primarily related to the Company's new Truscope Inspection unit, Solids Control
equipment in the strong Canadian market, and Fiber Glass liner equipment for the
Company's Fiberglass operation.

                                       12


For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Company used $1.0 million of cash
for financing activities compared to cash used of $10.8 million in the same
period of 1999.  The main use of cash for financing activities was for the
reduction of outstanding debt.

Current and long-term debt was $231.5 million at March 31, 2000, a decrease of
$1.9 million from the $233.3 million outstanding at December 31, 1999.  The
decrease in debt was due to cash flow from operations.  The Company's
outstanding debt at March 31, 2000 consisted of $98.9 million of Notes (net of
discounts), $62.6 million of term loans due under the Company's Senior Credit
Agreement, $53.4 million due under the Company's $100.0 million revolving credit
facility, and $16.6 million of other debt.

At March 31, 2000 the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $5.1 million.
The available facility on the Company's $100.0 million revolving credit facility
and $5 million swingline facility was $43.1 million and $3.5 million,
respectively, at March 31, 2000.

Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10Q contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  The forward-looking statements are those that
do not state historical facts and are inherently subject to risk and
uncertainties.  The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on
current expectations and entail various risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements.  Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, the cyclical
nature of the oilfield services industry, risks associated with growth through
acquisitions and other factors discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 under the caption "Factors Affecting
Future Operating Results."

Quantitative & Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

  The Company does not believe it has a material exposure to market risk.  The
Company manages its exposure to interest rate changes by using a combination of
fixed rate debt, variable rate debt, interest swap and collar agreements in its
total debt portfolio.  At March 31, 2000, the Company had $231.5 million of
outstanding debt.  Fixed rate debt included $98.9 million of Senior Notes (net
of discounts) at a fixed interest rate of 7 1/2%.  The Company had
approximately $40.0 million of variable rate debt protected through the use of a
collar agreement.  The interest rate for the majority of the Company's variable
rate debt is reset every six months.  With respect to foreign currency
fluctuations, the Company uses natural hedges to minimize the effect of rate
fluctuations.  When natural hedges are not sufficient, generally it is the
Company's policy to enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge
significant transactions for periods consistent with the underlying risk.  The
Company had no forward foreign exchange contracts outstanding at March 31, 2000.
The Company does not enter into foreign currency or interest rate transactions
for speculative purposes.
