Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Accounting Policies
Reference is hereby made to the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for 1997, which contains a summary of significant 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
The Management of the Partnership believes that all adjustments (consisting
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
three months ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
3. Oil and Gas Properties
Oil and Gas Properties are reported on the successful efforts method.

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 March 31, 1998 of $272,044.
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
Revenue and expenses during the first quarter of 1998 include natural
gas sales and related expenses for all of the Partnership's wells. During
the same period in 1997 all of the wells were not yet turned into the line
and producing. The Partnership distributed $535,337 to the partners during
the first quarter of 1998.
Year 2000 Issue
PDC, who administers all aspects of the Partnership, has assessed the
extent of Year 2000 Issues affecting PDC and the Partnership. PDC believes
that the new computer system, including operating software currently being
installed along with modifications being made by PDC's computer technicians
will address the dating system flaw inherent in most operating systems.
PDC expects to be fully Year 2000 Compliant by the end of 1998. PDC does
not currently expect to charge the Partnership for any portion of PDC's
cost to become Year 2000 Compliant.
