-1- ITEM 1. BUSINESS Organization. Marine Petroleum Trust ("Marine") is a royalty trust that was created in 1956 under the laws of the State of Texas. Marine is not permitted to engage in any business activity because it was organized for the sole purpose of providing an efficient, orderly, and practical means for the administration and liquidation of rights to payments from certain oil and natural gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico, pursuant to license agreements and amendments thereto between Marine's predecessors and Gulf Oil Corporation ("Gulf"). As a result of various transactions that have occurred since 1956, the Gulf interests are now held by Chevron Corporation ("Chevron"), Elf Exploration, Inc. ("Elf"), and their assignees. The indenture pursuant to which Marine was created (the "Indenture") provides that the corporate trustee is to distribute all cash in Marine, less an amount reserved for the payment of accrued liabilities and estimated future expenses, to unitholders of record on the 28th day of September, December, March and June of each fiscal year. If the 28th falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the distribution is payable on the immediately preceding business day. The Indenture, as amended, also provides that the term of the royalty trust will expire on June 1, 2021, unless extended by the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding units of beneficial interest. Marine's wholly-owned subsidiary, Marine Petroleum Corporation ("MPC"), holds title to interests in properties subject to Marine's interests that are situated offshore of Louisiana. Ninety-eight percent of all oil, natural gas, and other mineral royalties collected by the subsidiary are paid to Marine. MPC, like Marine, is prohibited from engaging in a trade or business and does only those things necessary for the administration and liquidation of its properties. Marine's only industry segment or purpose is the administration and collection of royalties. Royalties. Marine's rights are generally referred to as overriding royalty interests by the oil and natural gas industry, and we sometimes refer to them as overriding royalty interests in this annual report. All production and marketing functions are conducted by the working interest owners of the leases. Revenues from overriding royalties are paid to Marine either (i) on the basis of the selling price of oil, natural gas and other minerals produced, saved and sold, or (ii) at the value at the wellhead as determined by industry standards, when the selling price does not reflect the value at the wellhead. Marine holds an overriding royalty interest equal to three-fourths of 1% of the value at the well of any oil, natural gas, or other minerals produced and sold from the leases described in the "Properties" section below. Marine's overriding royalty interest applies only to existing leases and does not apply to new leases. Marine also owns a 32.6% equity interest in Tidelands Royalty Trust "B" ("Tidelands"), a separate Texas trust, which owns interests in the oil, natural gas, or other mineral leases acquired by Gulf and/or its transferees and assignees in a 1,370,000-acre area of the Gulf of Mexico (the "Royalty Area") during a 50-year period ended April 30, 2001. Tidelands' indenture provides that the corporate trustee is to distribute all cash in the trust, less an amount reserved for payment of accrued liabilities and estimated future expenses, to unitholders of record on the last business day of March, June, September and December of each year. Such payments are to be made within 15 days after the record date. Distributable income is paid from the unconsolidated account balances of Tidelands. Distributable income is comprised of (i) royalties from offshore Texas leases owned directly by Tidelands, plus (ii) 95% of the overriding royalties received by the subsidiary that are paid to Tidelands on a quarterly basis, less (iii) administrative expenses of Tidelands. Prior to the expiration of the 50-year lease acquisition period on April 30, 2001 (the "Acquisition Expiration Date"), if Chevron, Elf or their assigns had acquired a lease or leases on one of the 60 tracts, and if oil or natural gas were produced and sold from any such tract, then Chevron, Elf or their assigns had to make production payments to Tidelands, in an amount equal to approximately 12.5% of the value at the wellhead of the oil and natural gas subject to such lease until the sum of $1,500,000 has been paid under the lease. Thereafter, Tidelands' interest in such tract was converted to an overriding royalty and Tidelands received payments equal to approximately 4.17% of the value of the oil and natural gas sold as long as the lease on such tract exists. At April 30, 2001, Chevron, Elf or their assigns had acquired a total of eight (8) leases. At June 30, -2- 2003, five of Tidelands' assigned leases contained producing wells and had paid out their $1,500,000 production payment. Tidelands' royalty interest on four of the five leases was 4.17% at June 30, 2003. On the fifth lease Tidelands' overriding royalty interest is 1.0416%. Two assigned leases do not contain any producing wells. These leases have not paid $1,500,000 in production payments. Presently, the leases subject to Marine's interests cover 272,156 gross acres (including Tidelands' interest in 27,948 leased acres). These leases will remain in force until the expiration of their respective terms. Leases may be voluntarily released by the working interest owner after all oil and natural gas reserves are produced. Leases may also be abandoned by the working interest owner due to the failure to discover sufficient reserves to make development economically worthwhile. In addition, the federal government may force termination of a lease if the working interest owner fails to fully develop a lease once it is acquired. For the year ended June 30, 2003, approximately 45% of Marine's royalty revenues were attributable to the sale of oil and approximately 55% were attributable to the sale of natural gas. The royalty revenues received by Marine are affected by seasonal fluctuations in demand and by changes in the market price for oil and natural gas. Over 90% of Marine's revenues for each of the past three years was paid by five working interest owners. The percentage received from these five working interest owners for each of the past three years is presented in the following table:
YEARS ENDING JUNE 30, ----------------------- COMPANY 2003 2002 2001 --------------------------------- ---- ---- ---- Chevron/Texaco .................. 72% 79% 75% Century Exploration Company ..... 6% 5% 3% Devon Energy Production Company.. 4% 4% 7% BP America Production Company ... 8% 3%(1) 3%(2) Samedan Oil Corporation ......... 1% 2% 6% -- -- -- 91% 93% 94%
---------- (1) Includes $91,150 paid by Arco before BP America Production Company acquired Arco. (2) Includes $187,407 paid by Vastar and $197,641 paid by Arco after Arco acquired Vastar. In addition, Marine's revenues from its equity interest in Tidelands accounted for approximately 8%, 5% and 7% of Marine's revenue for the years ended June 30, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Tidelands has reported that royalty revenues from Burlington Resources, Dunhill Resources, Inc., Pennzenergy Exploration and Production Company and Devon Energy Production Company accounted for a substantial portion of Tidelands' royalty revenue for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. Marine derives no revenues from foreign sources and has no export sales. Trust Functions. Marine is administered by officers and employees of its Trustee, Bank of America, N.A. MPC employs Ray Bell, its president, treasurer and director, to perform certain management, financial and administrative services for Marine. Except for Mr. Bell, all officers and directors of MPC serve without compensation. See "Management and Principal Unitholders." All aspects of Marine's operations are conducted by third parties. Oil and natural gas companies that lease tracts subject to Marine's interests conduct the production and sale of oil and natural gas and the calculation of royalty payments to Marine. Marine's distributions are processed and paid by The Bank of New York as the agent for the trustee of Marine. MPC leases office space in Dallas, Texas to provide work space and record storage for MPC and Tidelands' wholly-owned subsidiary corporation, Tidelands Royalty Trust "B" Corporation. The cost of this office facility is shared by MPC and Tidelands Royalty Trust "B" Corporation proportionately based on each entity's gross income. -3- The ability of Marine to receive revenues is entirely dependent upon its entitlement to its rights with respect to the leases held by Chevron and its assignees in the Gulf of Mexico (as more fully described in "Properties" below). Moreover, no revenues are payable to Marine until sales of production commence from any such lease. The royalty interests held by Marine are depleting with each barrel of oil and mcf of natural gas produced. No funds are reinvested by Marine; thus, these depleting assets are not being replaced. -4- ITEM 2. PROPERTIES General. Marine is not engaged in oil and natural gas operations, although its income is based upon the oil and natural gas operations of others. Marine's income is derived from contracts that provide for payments in the nature of overriding royalties made to Marine based on oil and natural gas sales from certain leases in the Gulf of Mexico. Reserves. Marine is not engaged in the production of oil or natural gas. Marine's income is derived from overriding royalty payments that are carved out of working interests in oil and natural gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico. Marine does not have the engineering data necessary to make an estimate of the proved oil and natural gas reserves attributable thereto (nor the present value of future net cash flows from such reserves), and is not entitled to receive such data from the owners of the working interests from which Marine's interests are derived. Similarly, Tidelands does not have access to the engineering data necessary to make an estimate of the proved oil and natural gas reserves attributable thereto. See also "Difficulty in Obtaining Certain Data" below. Since Marine does not have access to this reserve information, Marine is unable to compute the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows therefrom. Marine did not file any reports during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, with any federal authority or agency with respect to oil and natural gas reserves. Production. Information regarding the net quantities of oil and natural gas produced with respect to Marine's overriding royalty interests (excluding its equity interest in Tidelands) for each of the last three fiscal years, as well as the average sales price per unit of oil and natural gas produced upon which payments to Marine are based, is set forth in the following table:
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, ----------------------------------------- 2003 2002 2001 --------- -------- -------- Quantity Oil (in barrels ("bbls")) ................... 89,792 113,424 112,554 Natural Gas (in thousands cubic feet ("mcf")) 585,732 749,771 971,880 Average Price Oil (per bbl) ............................... $ 24.64 $ 23.34 $ 28.50 Natural Gas (per mcf) ....................... $ 4.60 $ 2.83 $ 5.00
Information about average production cost (lifting cost) per unit of production has been omitted due to its unavailability and inapplicability to Marine. For more recent information regarding prices, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" below. Productive Wells. Based on the latest public records available to Marine, there were approximately 381 active wells subject to Marine's interests, some of which contained multiple completions. Approximately 167 wells were classified as oil wells and approximately 214 wells were classified as natural gas wells. Most of the oil wells also produced associated natural gas and most of the natural gas wells produced condensate, which is economically the equivalent of oil. See "Difficulty in Obtaining Certain Data" below. -5- Drilling Activity. Information concerning the results of operations on leases in which Marine had an interest (including its equity interest in Tidelands) for each of its last three fiscal years is set forth below:

-------- * "Suspended" wells are wells that have been completed but whose classifications have not been reported at the relevant date. Information regarding net wells or acres is not included since Marine does not own any working interests. Lease Acreage. Marine has an overriding royalty interest (including its equity interest in Tidelands) in 72 different oil and natural gas leases covering 272,156 gross acres. These leases are located in the Central and Western areas of the Gulf of Mexico off the coasts of Louisiana and Texas. This acreage is presented in the following table:
PRIMARY LEASES GRANTED BY(1): TERM(2) PRODUCING TOTAL -------------------------- ------- --------- ------- United States ............ 5,000 261,626 266,626 State of Texas ........... -- 640 640 State of Louisiana ....... -- 4,890 4,890 ------- ------- ------- 5,000 267,156 272,156 ======= ======= =======
------- (1) Leases are typically granted for a term of five years, during which the lease owner must establish a commercial production capability, or the lease expires. There are 3,958 acres located on leases that have commercial production, but the production is not on Marine's overriding royalty area within those leases. (2) The primary term is five (5) years. The overriding royalty interest owned by Marine is a fractional interest out of total oil and natural gas sold, and is free and clear of all operating costs. The actual percentage interest in a lease attributable to Marine's interest varies from lease to lease. The acreage weighted average percentage interest attributable to Marine's interest in all of these leases is .60271%. Present Activities. Public records indicate that 5 wells are either being drilled, re-drilled or worked over on tracts that Marine has an interest in. Public records indicate that operators have designated locations for 9 additional operations. There is no assurance that these wells will be drilled, and if they are drilled, that they will be successful. Difficulty in Obtaining Certain Data. Marine's only activities are the collection and distribution of revenues from overriding royalties on certain oil and natural gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico, pursuant to purchase agreements between Marine's predecessors and Gulf and its transferees. The leasehold working interests that are subject to the rights held by Marine are owned, in most cases, in whole or in part by Chevron, or other oil and natural gas exploration and production companies. Certain information as to reserves, availability of oil and natural gas, average production cost (lifting cost) per unit, undeveloped acreage, net wells and net acres, with respect to the particular leases subject to Marine's interests, lies solely within the knowledge of these concerns. Engineering data, if any, regarding these leaseholds would have been compiled principally by or for the working interest owners of these leaseholds. In the past, Marine has asked for such information and was told it is not entitled to receive such information. Marine believes that it will not be provided access to such information in the future. Therefore, it appears that unreasonable efforts and expense would be involved in seeking to obtain all of the information required under Item 102 of Regulation S-K and Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Industry Guide 2. -6- ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Neither Marine nor MPC, nor any of their respective properties, is a party to or subject to any material pending litigation as of the date hereof. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matters have been presented to the unitholders to be voted upon during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The units of beneficial interest in Marine trade on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market under the symbol "MARPS." Distributions of cash are made to unitholders quarterly. The following table presents the range of high and low trade prices by quarter for the past two years as reported by the OTC Market Report. The per unit amount of cash distributed to unitholders for each of these quarters is also presented in the table.
TRADE PRICE ------------- DISTRIBUTIONS QUARTER ENDING HIGH LOW PER UNIT ------------------------------- ----- ----- ------------- September 30, 2002 ............ 26.00 20.26 .542 December 31, 2002 ............. 25.00 22.55 .629 March 31, 2003 ................ 28.86 23.02 .656 June 30, 2003 ................. 29.10 24.47 .412 September 30, 2001 ............ 32.49 26.00 1.134 December 31, 2001 ............. 34.00 26.01 .724 March 31, 2002 ................ 34.00 26.06 .486 June 30, 2002 ................. 29.50 24.00 .459
Marine is authorized to issue and has issued 2,000,000 units of beneficial interest. On June 30, 2003, these outstanding units were held of record by 584 unitholders. Marine must distribute to its unitholders all cash accumulated each quarter, less an amount reserved for accrued liabilities and estimated future expenses. Such distributions have been made since its inception and will continue so long as the income from oil and natural gas royalties exceeds administrative costs. Distributions fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to changes in oil and natural gas prices and production quantities. Distributions are determined by the cash available to Marine on the determination date. -7- ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

-8- ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Critical Accounting Policies. As an overriding royalty owner, actual production results are not known to us until reported by the operator, which could be a period of 60-90 days later than the actual month of production. To comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, we must estimate earned but unpaid royalty from this production. To estimate this amount, we utilize historical information based on the latest production reports from the individual leases and current average prices as reported for oil by Chevron USA and the spot market price for natural gas delivered at the Henry Hub in Louisiana for the period under report. Results of Operations. Marine's revenues are derived from the oil and natural gas production activities of unrelated parties. Marine's revenues and distributions fluctuate from period to period based upon factors beyond Marine's control, including without limitation the number of leases subject to Marine's interests, the number of productive wells drilled on leases subject to Marine's interests, the level of production over time from such wells and the prices at which the oil and natural gas from such wells are sold. Marine believes that it will continue to have revenues sufficient to permit distributions to be made to unitholders for the foreseeable future, although no assurance can be made regarding the amounts thereof. The foregoing sentence is a forward-looking statement and is subject to numerous factors. Factors that might cause actual results to differ from expected results include reductions in prices or demand for oil and natural gas, which might then lead to decreased production; reductions in production due to depletion of existing wells or disruptions in service, including as the result of storm damage, blowouts or other production accidents, and geological changes such as cratering of productive formations; and the expiration or release of leases subject to Marine's interests. Marine's income consists primarily of oil and natural gas royalties and is based on the value at the well of its percentage interest in oil and natural gas sold without reduction for any of the expenses of production. "Value at the well" for oil means the purchasers' posted price at its receiving point onshore, less the cost of transportation from the offshore lease to the onshore receiving point. Summary Review. Marine's net income for the year ended June 30, 2003 amounted to $5,158,676 or $2.58 per unit as compared to $4,847,485 or $2.42 per unit in fiscal 2002 and $8,482,747 or $4.24 per unit in fiscal 2001. These results also include income from Marine's equity interest in Tidelands which amounted to $439,698 for fiscal 2003, $234,945 for fiscal 2002, and $574,755 for fiscal 2001. Income from Tidelands contributed approximately 9% of Marine's royalty income for fiscal 2003 as compared to 5% and 7% of Marine's royalty income for fiscal 2002 and 2001, respectively. Marine's administrative expenses decreased to approximately $218,000 in fiscal 2003 from approximately $231,000 spent in fiscal 2002. This decrease was substantially due to decreased legal, accounting and other expenses. Interest income decreased to approximately $35,000 in fiscal 2003 from approximately $52,000 realized in fiscal 2002 due to a decrease in the rate of interest paid. Marine believes that the drilling and work-over program of the operating companies has added to the life of well revenue. The following table shows the number of new wells drilled and the number of producing wells for the past three fiscal years.

Oil and Gas Royalties - 2002 and 2001: Revenue from oil royalties amounted to $2,647,623 in fiscal 2002, a decrease of 17% over the $3,207,362 realized in fiscal 2001. The average price of a barrel of oil decreased 18% to $23.34 and production increased 0.8% to 113,424 barrels. Please refer to the table above. Revenue from natural gas royalties amounted to $2,124,195, a decrease of 56% from the $4,854,958 realized in fiscal 2002. The average price of a thousand cubic feet (mcf) of natural gas decreased 43% to $2.83 and production decreased 23% to 749,771 mcf. Please refer to the table above. Oil and Gas Royalties - 2003 and 2002: Revenue from oil royalties amounted to $2,212,252 in fiscal 2003, a decrease of 16% over the $2,647,623 realized in fiscal 2002. The average price of a barrel of oil increased 6% to $24.64 and production decreased 21% to 89,792 barrels. Please refer to the table above. Revenue from natural gas royalties amounted to $2,696,761, an increase of 27% over the $2,124,195 realized in fiscal 2002. The average price of a thousand cubic feet (mcf) of natural gas increased 63% to $4.60 and production decreased 22% to 585,732 mcf. Please refer to the table above. A tropical storm and a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico interrupted production and damaged production facilities resulting in decreased production during the last nine months of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2003. Capital Resources and Liquidity. Because of the nature of Marine as a trust entity, there is no requirement for capital; its only obligation is to distribute to unitholders the net income actually collected. As an administrator of oil and natural gas royalty properties, Marine collects income monthly, pays expenses of administration, and disburses all net income collected to its unitholders each quarter. Because all of Marine's revenues are invested in liquid funds pending distribution, Marine does not experience liquidity problems. Marine's Indenture (and the charter and by-laws of MPC) expressly prohibits the operation of any kind of trade or business. Marine's oil and natural gas properties are depleting assets and are not being replaced due to the prohibition against these investments. Because of these restrictions, Marine does not require short term or long term capital. These restrictions, along with other factors, allow Marine to be treated as a grantor trust; thus all income and deductions, for tax purposes, should flow through to each individual unitholder. Marine is not a taxable entity. Marine does not currently have any long term contractual obligations. -10- ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK At June 30, 2003, Marine did not have any market risk exposure with regard to any activities in derivative financial instruments, other financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. -17- MARINE PETROLEUM TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THREE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) General The Marine Petroleum Trust ("Marine") was established on June 1, 1956 with the transfer of property to Marine consisting of certain contract rights, units of beneficial interest and common stock in exchange for units of beneficial interest in Marine. The contract rights entitled Marine to receive a .0075 overriding royalty interest in oil, natural gas and other mineral leasehold interests acquired by Gulf Oil Corporation, now Chevron U.S.A., Inc. ("Chevron"), a subsidiary of Chevron Corporation, in certain areas of the Gulf of Mexico prior to January 1, 1980. Marine must distribute all income, after paying its liabilities and obligations, to the unitholders during the months of March, June, September and December each year. Marine and its subsidiary cannot engage in a trade or business. Funds held by the subsidiary pending distribution to Marine are invested in U.S. Treasury and agency bonds. A Louisiana trust can only exist for a short period of time; therefore, the unitholders assigned their contract rights off-shore of Louisiana to Marine Petroleum Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Marine, ("MPC") reserving a 98% net profits interest to themselves. The net profits interest contract was transferred to Marine along with the other properties. Marine is authorized to pay expenses of MPC should it be necessary. Marine is to continue until June 1, 2021, or until such later date as holders of the units owning a majority of the outstanding units may designate, but in any event, not more than 20 years from such designation. However, the unitholders owning eighty percent (80%) of the outstanding units may terminate the trust on any date. (b) Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include Marine and its wholly-owned subsidiary, MPC. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. (c) Producing Oil and Gas Properties At the time Marine was established, no determinable market value was available for the assets transferred to Marine; consequently, nominal values were assigned. Accordingly, no allowance for depletion has been computed. All income from oil and natural gas royalties relate to proved developed oil and natural gas reserves. (d) Undistributed Income Marine's indenture agreement provides that the corporate trustee is to distribute all cash in the trust, less an amount reserved for the payment of accrued liabilities and estimated future expenses, to unitholders of record on the 28th day of March, June, September and December of each year. If the 28th falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the distribution is payable on the immediately preceding business day. Undistributed income includes $1,004,053 and $983,594 applicable to MPC at June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. (e) Federal Income Taxes No provision has been made for Federal income taxes on Marine's income since such taxes are the liability of the unitholders. -18- MARINE PETROLEUM TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) THREE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 Income Taxes Federal income taxes have been provided on the income of MPC, excluding the 98% net profits interest to be distributed to Marine and deducting statutory depletion. MPC uses the cash method of reporting for federal income taxes. At June 30, 2003 and 2002, deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows:
June 30, 2003 June 30, 2002 ------------- ------------- Deferred tax assets Net operating loss carryforward .................. $ 3,400 $ 3,936 Deferred tax liabilities Income not yet recognized for income taxes ....... (3,400) (3,936) ------- ------- Net deferred tax liability ............................ $ -- $ -- ======= =======
MPC had a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $17,000 at June 30, 2003, which does not expire until 2022. The primary difference between the effective tax rate of the Trust and the statutory tax rate is the fact that only MPC income, excluding the 98% net profits interest, is subject to federal income tax. (f) Credit Risk Concentration and Cash Equivalents Financial instruments which potentially subject Marine and MPC to concentrations of credit risk are primarily investments in cash equivalents, U.S. Treasury and agency bonds and receivables. Marine and MPC place their cash investments with financial institutions or companies that management considers credit worthy and limit the amount of credit exposure from any one financial institution or company. Marine has not experienced significant problems collecting its receivables in the past. Marine and MPC had cash equivalents and investments in U.S. Treasury and agency bonds of $2,049,720 and $1,646,736 at June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, which consisted of money market accounts, U.S. Treasury and agency bonds, and money market mutual funds. For purposes of the statements of cash flows, Marine considers all investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. (g) Statements of Cash Flows MPC made no Federal income tax payments in the year ended June 30, 2003 and made payments of $15,200, and $25,625 during the years ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. (h) Fair Value of Financial Instruments Marine and MPC define the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying value of cash equivalents, oil and natural gas royalties receivable, receivables from affiliates, accounts payable, and taxes payable approximate fair value because of the short maturities of those instruments. U.S. Treasury and agency bonds held to maturity are valued at amortized cost. -19- MARINE PETROLEUM TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) THREE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 (i) Use of Estimates Management of Marine and MPC has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (j) Income Per Unit Income per unit is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of units of beneficial interest outstanding during the period. (k) Significant Royalty Sources Royalty revenue received by Marine from producers is summarized as follows:
2003 2002 2001 ---- ---- ---- Chevron/Texaco .................... 72% 79% 75% BP America/Amoco .................. 8% 3% 3% Century Exploration Company ....... 6% 5% 3% Devon f/k/a Pennzenergy ........... 4% 4% 7% Others ............................ 10% 9% 12% --- --- --- 100% 100% 100% === === ===
(2) INVESTMENT IN AND RECEIVABLES FROM AFFILIATE - TIDELANDS ROYALTY TRUST "B" At June 30, 2003 and 2002, Marine owned 32.63% of the outstanding units of interest in Tidelands Royalty Trust "B" ("Tidelands"). The 452,366 units owned by Marine had a quoted market value of $3,008,234 and $1,538,044 at June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Marine and Tidelands share certain common costs which are allocated based on their respective net revenues. The investment in affiliate is accounted for by the equity method. The following summarizes changes in this account for 2003 and 2002.
2003 2002 --------- --------- Balance at beginning of year ........... $ 348,028 $ 338,788 Equity in earnings of affiliate ........ 439,698 234,945 Distribution of earnings ...............
