1.      Accounting Policies

        Reference is hereby made to the Partnership's Annual Report on
        Form 10-K for 1999, 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 six months ended June 30,
        2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
        for the full year.

3.      Oil and Gas Properties

        The Partnership follows the successful efforts method of accounting
        for the cost of exploring for and developing oil and gas reserves.
        Under this method, costs ofdevelopment wells, including equipment
        and intangible drilling costs related to both producing wells and
        developmental dry holes, and successful exploratory wells are
        capitalized and amortized on an annual basis to operations by the
        units-of-production method using estimated proved developed reserves
        which will be determined at year end by an independent petroleum
        engineer.  If a determination is made that an exploratory well has
        not discovered economically producible reserves, then its costs are
        expensed as dry hole costs.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations

        Liquidity and Capital Resources

             The Partnership was funded with initial Limited and Additional
        General Partner contributions of $20,525,261 and the Managing General
        Partner contributed $4,464,244 in accordance with the Agreement.
        Syndication and management fee costs of $2,668,284 were incurred
        leaving available capital of $22,321,221 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, 1999. Nintey-seven wells have been
        drilled, of which eighty-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 June 30, 2000 of
        $327,967.

             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 June 30, 2000 and 1999

             Revenue and expenses during the second quarter of 2000 include
        natural gas sales and related expenses for all of the Partnership's
        wells.  During the same period in 1999 all of the wells were not yet
        turned into line and producing for the entire quarter.  While the
        Partnership experienced net income of $98,444, depreciation,
        depletion and amortization is a non-cash expense and therefore the
        Partnership distributed $336,746 to the partners during the second
        quarter of 2000.

        Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared with 1999

             Revenue and expenses during the first six months of 2000 include
        natural gas sales and related expenses for all of the Partnership's
        wells.  During the same period in 1999 all of the wells were not
        turned into line and producing for the entire period.  While the
        Partnership experienced net income of $259,570, depreciation,
        depletion, and amortization is a non-cash expense and therefore the
        Partnership distributed $730,755 to the partners during the first
        six months of 2000.

        Year 2000 Issue

             PDC, who administers all aspects of the Partnership, experienced
        no known disruptions as a result of the year date change and intends
        to continue monitoring its critical systems at various other date
        changes during the Year 2000.

             PDC's expenditures for addressing Year 2000 issues were not
        material, nor does the Company expect to incur any significant costs
        addressing Year 2000 issues in the future.
