(Unaudited)
1. Accounting Policies
Reference is hereby made to the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for 1996, which contains a summary of major accounting policies followed by
the Partnership in the preparation of its financial statements. These
policies were also followed in preparing the quarterly report included
herein.
2. Basis of Presentation

of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to a fair statement of the
results of such periods have been made. The results of operations for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
3. Oil and Gas Properties

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership was funded on December 31, 1996 with initial Limited
and Additional General Partner contributions of $15,301,726 and the
Managing General Partner contributed $3,328,126 in accordance with the
Agreement. Syndication and management fee costs of $1,989,224 were
incurred leaving available capital of $16,640,628 for Partnership
activities.
The Partnership began exploration and development activities
subsequent to the funding of the Partnership and completed well drilling
activities by March 31, 1997. Eighty-four wells have been drilled, of
which seventy-nine have been completed as producing wells.
Operations will be conducted with available funds and revenues
generated from oil and gas activities. No bank borrowings are anticipated.
The Partnership had net working capital at September 30, 1997 of
$326,913.
The Partnership's revenues from oil and gas will be affected by
changes in prices. As a result of changes in federal regulations, gas
prices are highly dependent on the balance between supply and demand. The
Partnership's gas sales prices are subject to increase and decrease based
on various market sensitive indices.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 1997
A total of fifty-nine of the Partnership's seventy-nine prodcutive
wells were producing natural gas for the entire three months ended
September 30, 1997. The remaining twenty wells are scheduled to be put
into service during the fourth quarter of 1997. While the Partnership
experienced a modest net income of $104,895, depreciation, depletion, and
amorization is a non-cash expense and therefore the Partnership distributed
$293,032 to the partners during the third quarter of 1997.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997
The Partnership began and completed exploration and development
activities during the first nine months of 1997. Oil and gas sales
commenced during the first quarter and cash distributions to the partners
commenced during the second quarter. A total of fifty-nine of the
Partnership's seventy-nine productive wells are producing natural gas as of
September 30, 1997. While the Partnership experienced a net income of
$179,347, depreciation, depletion and amortization is a non-cash expense
and therefore the Partnership distributed $349,611 to the partners during
the first nine months of 1997.
