Reserve Information

     The following estimates of proved and proved developed reserve
quantities and related standardized measure of discounted net cash flow
are estimates only, and do not purport to reflect realizable values or
fair market values of the Company's reserves. The Company emphasizes that
reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that 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. All of the Company's reserves are located
in the United States.
     Proved reserves are estimated reserves of crude oil (including
condensate and natural gas liquids) and natural gas that 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 those expected to be recovered
through existing wells, equipment, and operating methods.
     The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is
computed by applying year end prices of oil and gas (with consideration of
price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements)
to the estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves, less
estimated future expenditures (based on year end costs) to be incurred in
developing and producing the proved reserves, less estimated future income
tax expenses (based on year end statutory tax rates, with consideration of
future tax rates already legislated) to be incurred on pretax net cash flows
less tax basis of the properties and available credit, and assuming
continuation of existing economic conditions. The estimated future net cash
flows are then discounted using a rate of 10 percent a year to reflect
the estimated timing of the future cash flows.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of
         Operation

The Company was originally incorporated in Utah in 1986 and reincorporated in
Nevada in 1993. In July, 1995, the Company acquired all of the issued capital
of two Kentucky based gas operations, Delstar Gas Systems, Inc. ("DGS") and
Northstar Gas Systems, Inc. ("NGS"), covering gas reserves and gas
transmission systems respectively. In December 1995, the Company formed a
wholly owned subsidiary in the state of Kentucky, Delstar Resources, Inc.
("DRI"). This subsidiary acquired additional freehold real estate and gas
reserves for $5,425,000. In September, 1997, the Company acquired 100%
ownership of Radly Petroleum, Inc. ("Radly"), a Texas corporation, in exchange
for approximately 80% of the Company's outstanding common stock. In July 1998
the Company acquired 100% ownership of Lichfield Petroleum America, Inc.,
("Lichfield"), a Texas corporation. Chancellor Group, Inc., Radly, Lichfield,
DGS, NGS, and DRI operate and remain as separate legal entities. The Company
has taken an impairment writedown of the assets of DGS, NGS, and DRI until
such time as certain disputes relating to the original acquisition agreements
for DGS and NGS by and between the Company and the former owners of those
subsidiaires are resolved. Management expects that such dispute will be
resolved in its favour in 2000.

The Company's officers and directors are currently implementing an extensive
business plan, through which the Company will raise new equity capital to
finance the initial development work of its existing Texas gas assets, recover
operating control of and finance the redevelopment of the extensive Kentucky
gas assets, and acquire interests in several important new drilling and
redevelopment projects.

Results of Operations

The results for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 1999 show an increase in current
liabilities to $241,286. The Company generated no revenue during
the period covered by this report. A comparison with figures for the
corresponding period last year is meaningless, as the Company had not yet
commenced trading.

The sole activity of the Company during the quarter was the restoration to
full regulatory compliance and the continued preparation for the growth,
financing, and development of the Company's business assets.

The Company issued no securities during the quarter covered by this
report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The consolidated Balance Sheet as of Sept. 30, 1999 reports no increase in
current or noncurrent assets. Current liabilities have increased to
$241,286 during the year to date, comprised principally of increases in
deferred and unpaid compensation due to two officers of the Company, and
general operating expenses.

Day to day general operating expenses are paid out of pocket by officers of
the Company, and from time to time these expenses are invoiced to the
Company for payment.

No increase was recorded in compensation due to the Company's Chairman and
CEO during the quarter ended September 30, 1999. The Company and the
Chairman and CEO have agreed that unpaid compensation dating back to
May, 1999 will not be recognized until a new compensation agreement is
negotiated in early 2000. Consequently, the Company as of September 30, 1999
continued to owe cash compensation to the Chairman and CEO in the amount of
$40,000.

The Company is presently in the process of undertaking a small private
placement of securities to raise an estimated $300,000. These funds are to be
used to repay all current indebtedness of the Company, and enable it to meet
certain other operating expenses, including the preparation of a prospectus
or private placement memorandum for the raising of $11 million in new equity
capital.

Impact of inflation

The Company believes that its activities are not materially affected by
inflation.
