Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

         The following documents which have been filed by Petroleum Heat and 
Power Co., Inc. (the "Registrant") with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (the "Commission"), are hereby incorporated by reference in this 
Registration Statement:

         1.   Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended
              December 31, 1996.

         2.   Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as amended, for the fiscal quarter

         3.   The description of the Class A Common Stock contained in the
              Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed pursuant to
              Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and any amendment or report filed
              for the purpose of updating such description.

         All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13(a),
13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 subsequent to the
date of the Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective

incorporated herein by reference (other than exhibits to such documents). 
Requests should be directed to Audrey L. Sevin, Secretary, Petroleum Heat and

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

         Not Applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Names Experts and Counsel.

         Not Applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Section 302A.521 of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act (the 
"MNCA") provides mandatory and exclusive standards for indemnification, 
although the Articles of Incorporation or by-laws of a corporation can 
specifically limit the statutory indemnification.  Minnesota law generally 
provides that a corporation shall indemnify a person made or threatened to be 
made a party to a proceeding by reason of such person's official capacity as 
an officer, director or employee of the corporation, against judgments, 
penalties, fines, including, without limitation, excise taxes assessed 
against such person with respect to an employee benefit plan, settlements, 
and reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees and disbursements, 
incurred by that person in connection with the proceeding, if such person (a) 
has not been indemnified by another entity for the same proceedings and in 
connection with the same acts or omission; (b) acted in good faith; (c) 
received no improper personal benefit; (d) in the case of a criminal 
proceeding, had no reason to believe such person's conduct was unlawful; and 
(e) in connection with the acts or omissions in question, the person 
reasonably believed that such person's conduct was in the best interests of 
the corporation (or, in the case of a question of improper personal benefit, 
believed that the conduct was not opposed to the best interests of the 
corporation; or in the case of an employee benefit plan, believed that the 
conduct was in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of the 
employee benefit plan).

                                     -2-

<PAGE>

         Section 302A.521 of the MBCA further provides that if an officer, 
director or employee is made or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding 
in such person's official capacity, such person is entitled, upon written 
request to the corporation, to payment or reimbursement by the corporation of 
reasonable expenses incurred by such person in advance of the final 
disposition of the proceeding (a) upon receipt by the corporation of a 
written confirmation by such person of such person's good faith belief that 
the criteria for indemnification set forth under Minnesota law have been 
satisfied, an undertaking by such person to repay all amounts paid or 
reimbursed by the corporation if it is ultimately determined that the 
criteria for indemnification have not been satisfied, and (b) after a 
determination that the facts then known to those making the determination 
would not preclude indemnification under Minnesota law.

         Finally, Section 302A.521 of the MBCA provides that a corporation's 
Articles of Incorporation or by-laws may prohibit indemnification or advances 
or may impose conditions on such indemnification or advance, as long as those 
conditions apply equally to all persons or to all persons within a given 
class.

         Registrant's Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, 
contains the limitation of liability provision set forth below:

              "ARTICLE VIII - A director of the corporation shall not be
         personally liable to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary
         damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
         liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the
         corporation or its shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in
         good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
         violation of law, (iii) under Section 302A.559 of the Minnesota
         Business Corporation Act or Section 80A.23 of the Minnesota Securities
         Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the directors derived an
         improper personal benefit.  If the Minnesota Business Corporation Act
         is hereafter amended to authorize any further limitation of the
         liability of a director, then the liability of a director of the
         corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
         permitted by the Minnesota Business Corporation Act, as amended.  No
         amendment or repeal of this Article VIII shall apply to or have any
         effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director of the
         corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such
         director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal."

         Registrant's by-laws, as amended, contains the indemnification
         provision set forth below:

              "Section 8.01.  The corporation shall indemnify all officers and
         directors of the corporation, for such expenses and liabilities, in
         such manner, under such circumstances, and to such extent as permitted
         by Minnesota Statutes Section 302A.521, as now enacted or hereafter
         amended.  Unless otherwise approved by the Board of Directors, the
         corporation shall not indemnify or advance expenses to any employee of
         the corporation who is not otherwise entitled to indemnification
         pursuant to the prior sentence of this Section 8.01."


Item 7.  Exemption From Registration Claimed.

         Not Applicable.

Item 9.  Undertakings.

         1.  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

             (i)   To file, during any period in which offers or sales are 
being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to 
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not 
previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to 
such information in the Registration Statement.

             (ii)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under 
the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be 
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered 
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to 
be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

             (iii) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective 
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the 
termination of the offering.

         2.  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes 
of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of 
the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of 
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an 
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the 
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement 
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such 
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering 
thereof.

         3.  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, 
officers or controlling persons of the registrant, pursuant to the foregoing 
provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that, in the 
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is 
against public policy as expressed in the Act, and is, therefore, 
unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such 
liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or 
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the 
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such 
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities 
being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its 
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a 
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification 
by it is against public policy as expressed in the act and will be governed 
by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

         The following documents which have been filed by Petroleum Heat and 
Power Co., Inc. (the "Registrant") with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (the "Commission"), are hereby incorporated by reference in this 
Registration Statement:

         1.   Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended
              December 31, 1996.

         2.   Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as amended, for the fiscal quarter

         3.   The description of the Class A Common Stock contained in the
              Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed pursuant to
              Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and any amendment or report filed
              for the purpose of updating such description.

         All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13(a),
13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 subsequent to the
date of the Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

         Not Applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Names Experts and Counsel.

         Not Applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Section 302A.521 of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act (the 
"MNCA") provides mandatory and exclusive standards for indemnification, 
although the Articles of Incorporation or by-laws of a corporation can 
specifically limit the statutory indemnification.  Minnesota law generally 
provides that a corporation shall indemnify a person made or threatened to be 
made a party to a proceeding by reason of such person's official capacity as 
an officer, director or employee of the corporation, against judgments, 
penalties, fines, including, without limitation, excise taxes assessed 
against such person with respect to an employee benefit plan, settlements, 
and reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees and disbursements, 
incurred by that person in connection with the proceeding, if such person (a) 
has not been indemnified by another entity for the same proceedings and in 
connection with the same acts or omission; (b) acted in good faith; (c) 
received no improper personal benefit; (d) in the case of a criminal 
proceeding, had no reason to believe such person's conduct was unlawful; and 
(e) in connection with the acts or omissions in question, the person 
reasonably believed that such person's conduct was in the best interests of 
the corporation (or, in the case of a question of improper personal benefit, 
believed that the conduct was not opposed to the best interests of the 
corporation; or in the case of an employee benefit plan, believed that the 
conduct was in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of the 
employee benefit plan).

                                     -2-
Section 302A.521 of the MBCA further provides that if an officer, 
director or employee is made or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding 
in such person's official capacity, such person is entitled, upon written 
request to the corporation, to payment or reimbursement by the corporation of 
reasonable expenses incurred by such person in advance of the final 
disposition of the proceeding (a) upon receipt by the corporation of a 
written confirmation by such person of such person's good faith belief that 
the criteria for indemnification set forth under Minnesota law have been 
satisfied, an undertaking by such person to repay all amounts paid or 
reimbursed by the corporation if it is ultimately determined that the 
criteria for indemnification have not been satisfied, and (b) after a 
determination that the facts then known to those making the determination 
would not preclude indemnification under Minnesota law.

         Finally, Section 302A.521 of the MBCA provides that a corporation's 
Articles of Incorporation or by-laws may prohibit indemnification or advances 
or may impose conditions on such indemnification or advance, as long as those 
conditions apply equally to all persons or to all persons within a given 
class.

         Registrant's Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, 
contains the limitation of liability provision set forth below:

              "ARTICLE VIII - A director of the corporation shall not be
         personally liable to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary
         damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
         liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the
         corporation or its shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in
         good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
         violation of law, (iii) under Section 302A.559 of the Minnesota
         Business Corporation Act or Section 80A.23 of the Minnesota Securities
         Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the directors derived an
         improper personal benefit.  If the Minnesota Business Corporation Act
         is hereafter amended to authorize any further limitation of the
         liability of a director, then the liability of a director of the
         corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
         permitted by the Minnesota Business Corporation Act, as amended.  No
         amendment or repeal of this Article VIII shall apply to or have any
         effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director of the
         corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such
         director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal."

         Registrant's by-laws, as amended, contains the indemnification
         provision set forth below:

              "Section 8.01.  The corporation shall indemnify all officers and
         directors of the corporation, for such expenses and liabilities, in
         such manner, under such circumstances, and to such extent as permitted
         by Minnesota Statutes Section 302A.521, as now enacted or hereafter
         amended.  Unless otherwise approved by the Board of Directors, the
         corporation shall not indemnify or advance expenses to any employee of
         the corporation who is not otherwise entitled to indemnification
         pursuant to the prior sentence of this Section 8.01."

Item 7.  Exemption From Registration Claimed.

         Not Applicable.

Item 9.  Undertakings.

         1.  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

             (i)   To file, during any period in which offers or sales are 
being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to 
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not 
previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to 
such information in the Registration Statement.

             (ii)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under 
the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be 
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered 
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to 
be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

             (iii) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective 
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the 
termination of the offering.

         2.  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes 
of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of 
the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of 
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an 
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the 
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement 
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such 
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering 
thereof.

         3.  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, 
officers or controlling persons of the registrant, pursuant to the foregoing 
provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that, in the 
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is 
against public policy as expressed in the Act, and is, therefore, 
unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such 
liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or 
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the 
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such 
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities 
being registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its 
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a 
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification 
by it is against public policy as expressed in the act and will be governed 
by the final adjudication of such issue.                                      

                                   -4-
