APACHE PETROLEUM LIMITED PARTNERSHIP 1980-I
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1.	The financial statements included herein have been prepared by 
the Apache Petroleum Limited Partnership 1980-I (Partnership), 
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the 
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and reflect all 
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary 
to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods, on 
a basis consistent with the annual audited financial 
statements.  All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring 
nature. Certain information, accounting policies, and footnote 
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared 
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 
have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, 
although the Partnership believes that the disclosures are 
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. 
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with 
the financial statements and the summary of significant 
accounting policies and notes thereto included in the 
Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

2.	SEC regulations require that capitalized costs of oil and gas 
properties may not exceed a ceiling amount equal to the 
present value, discounted at 10 percent, of the future net 
revenue to be generated by existing proved reserves. Should 
capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, they are reduced 
through additional depreciation, depletion and amortization.  
During the first nine months of 1995, the Partnership wrote 
down the carrying value of its oil and gas properties by 
$675,126 due primarily to lower gas prices. The Partnership 
recorded write-downs totaling $2,578,353 during the first nine 
months of 1994 as a result of lower gas prices and unfavorable 
reserve revisions.

totaling $608,633 compared to a loss of $2,517,879 for the first 
nine months of 1994. During the first nine months of 1995, the 
Partnership wrote down its oil and gas properties by $675,126 due 
to declines in gas prices.  During the first nine months of 1994, 
the Partnership recorded write-downs totaling $2,578,353 due to 
lower oil and gas prices and unfavorable reserve revisions.

Under SEC rules, entities that follow full cost accounting methods 
are required to make quarterly "ceiling test" calculations.  
Application of these rules may result in future write-downs unless 
oil and gas prices improve.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Volume and price information for the Partnership's oil and gas 
production for the third quarter and first nine months of 1995 and 
1994, respectively, is summarized in the following table:

</TABLE>
Oil and gas sales for the third quarter of 1995 decreased 17 
percent from a year ago, falling to $250,131.  For the first nine 
months of 1995, oil and gas sales decreased four percent to 
$771,443.  Third quarter sales fell due to lower oil and gas 
production, while sales from the first nine months decreased as a 
result of lower oil production and a decrease in average realized 
gas prices, when compared to 1994.
<PAGE>
Gas sales for the third quarter of 1995 totaled $154,617, down 14 
percent from the same period last year.  The Partnership's third 
quarter gas production of 1,084 Mcfd decreased 17 percent resulting 
from natural depletion of the Partnership's aging wells.  Gas sales 
were negatively affected by $29,967 due to the Partnership's 
decrease in production from a year ago.  Average realized natural 
gas prices increased seven percent from the third quarter of 1994 
to $1.55 per Mcf, favorably impacting sales by $5,438.

Gas sales of $480,908 for the first nine months of 1995 were in 
line with 1994 sales of $487,188 for the same period.  The 
Partnership produced 45 Mcfd more during the first nine months of 
1995 as compared to the same period in 1994. The four-percent 
increase in gas production resulted primarily from other owners of 
the Kinney Warren #3-10 making up a portion of their under-
production during the first nine months of 1994.  This volume 
increase resulted in additional sales of $21,081.  The 
Partnership's average realized gas price of $1.63 per Mcf during 
the first nine months of 1995 was $.06 per Mcf lower than last 
year's price of $1.69 per Mcf for the same period.  This four-
percent decrease in the price of gas resulted in $27,361 of lower 
sales.

Oil sales of $95,514 for the 1995 third quarter were $26,985, or 22 
percent, lower than the previous year as a result of lower oil 
production.  A 23-percent decline in production, primarily 
attributable to natural depletion of the Partnership's aging wells 
and the impact of property divestitures, negatively impacted sales 
by $29,574.  A $.48 per barrel increase in the Partnership's 
average oil price positively impacted 1995 sales by $2,589, when 
compared to 1994.

For the first nine months of 1995, oil sales decreased seven 
percent to $290,535 compared to $312,809 for the same period a year 
ago. Oil revenues were negatively impacted by a 17-percent decline 
in production volumes.  This was partially offset by the favorable 
impact of a $1.97 per barrel increase in the Partnership's average 
realized oil price.

Recurring depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the 
first nine months of 1995 declined 31 percent from a year ago due 
primarily to a favorable revision to gas reserves and reductions of 
amortizable costs due to write downs in 1994 and 1995.  The 
Partnership wrote down the carrying value of its oil and gas 
properties by $675,126 in 1995, compared to write downs totaling 
$2,578,353 recognized during the first nine months of 1994.

Lease operating expense in the first nine months of this year 
increased $61,301 due to higher workover costs and increased costs 
on the Partnership's aging properties.  Workover costs were $18,000 
above last years' level.  Operating costs also reflect higher 
compression costs necessary to sustain or improve production on 
certain of the Partnership's properties.  General and 
administrative expenses during the first nine months of 1995 are 
comparable to those incurred in the first nine months of 1994.
<PAGE>
CASH FLOW, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Partnership's liquidity is solely dependent on its net cash 
flows from operating activities.  During the past two years, the 
Partnership has not had any debt service or any other significant 
demands on its net cash flows except recompletions and workovers 
conducted to enhance production or correct mechanical problems.  
Accordingly, the Partnership's net cash flows in the first nine 
months of 1995 and 1994 have been used primarily to make cash 
distributions to the partners and fund limited capital 
expenditures.  The net cash provided by operating activities during 
the first nine months of 1995 decreased from the comparable period 
in 1994 due to a decrease in the Partnership's liabilities.  
Excluding the impact of working capital accounts, the Partnership's 
cash from operating activities declined 24 percent.  The reduction 
in liabilities includes payments made in connection with the agreed 
upon settlement of claims for pollution damage relative to the 
Partnership's interest in the Damron #1-10 and Damron #2-15.  The 
Partnership had accrued costs relative to these claims in 1993 and 
1994.

Capital expenditures for recompletions and any other future 
development drilling activity will be funded by a portion of the 
cash generated by the operations of the Partnership's producing 
properties, or through farmout arrangements at no cost to the 
Partnership. Capital expenditures for calendar year 1995 are not 
expected to be significantly different from amounts incurred in 
1994.

During the third quarter of 1995, the Partnership sold its interest 
in 35 wells located in the Rocky Mountain region of the United 
States for $160,099.  The properties sold were primarily oil wells 
with higher operating costs.  Due to the properties' distance from 
markets, both oil and gas sold at a discount compared to oil and 
gas production sold in the Partnership's other areas of interest.  
The properties sold constituted 32 percent and one percent of the 
Partnership's oil and gas proved reserves, respectively, at year-
end 1994, or approximately five percent of the Partnership's proved 
reserves on an energy equivalent basis.

The Partnership made a distribution of $50 per-Unit in March 1995. 
 Although cash flows from operating activities are expected to be 
sufficient to meet the Partnership's foreseeable liquidity needs, 
future distribution levels are expected to decrease on an annual 
basis due to normal production declines on the Partnership's 
existing producing properties and limited expenditures to replace 
reserves produced.  This trend could be mitigated by increases in 
average oil and gas prices and recompletion activities.  The 
Partnership is not in a position to predict the future price of or 
demand for oil and gas.  The Partnership intends to limit future 
drilling to those operations designed to prevent drainage from the 
Partnership's properties caused by adjoining landowner activities.
<PAGE>
Based on reserve estimates, the Partnership has identified certain 
properties on which remaining gas reserves may not be sufficient to 
permit existing gas imbalances to be made up in a normal manner.  
As a result, monies the Partnership receives on these properties 
are being treated as a deferred credit on the balance sheet.  The 
balance in this deferred account will be reduced when the 
settlement of imbalances requires cash payments to under-delivered 
owners in these properties or volumes are otherwise recouped by 
under-produced owners from other wells in which the Partnership has 
an interest.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The information set forth in Note 4 to the financial 
statements contained in the registrant's annual report on 
Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 1994 (filed 
with the SEC on  March 31, 1995), and the information 
contained in Part II, Item 1 of the Partnership's 
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 
31, 1995 (filed with the SEC on May 12, 1995), and for the 
period ended June 30, 1995 (filed with the SEC August 14, 
1995) are incorporated herein by reference. In the matter 
of J.F. Schulte, et.al. v. Apache Corporation, et.al., 
District Court of Beckham County, Oklahoma (No. C-81035), 
on July 11, 1995, the Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled in 
favor of Apache and other working interest owners, 
including the Partnership, reversing the ruling of the 
trial court which had awarded to plaintiffs an interest in 
certain acreage along with damages, fees and prejudgment 
interest in the aggregate amount of $4,325,972 against 
Apache and other working interest owners, including the 
Partnership.  On August 21, 1995, plaintiffs petitioned 
the Oklahoma Supreme Court for rehearing.  The Partnership 
would be obligated with respect to any liability in this 
matter in an amount proportional to its 21.75-percent 
working interest in the subject property.

A suit is pending against Apache with respect to wells it 
operates in the State of Oklahoma, alleging wrongful 
deduction of transportation, compression and certain other 
assets from royalties payable under certain leases.  James 
J. Duke, et.al. vs. Apache Corporation, District Court of 
Dewey County, Oklahoma (No. CJ-94-32) was filed May 26, 
1994. The court granted class certification on September 
27, 1995 with respect to claims involving leases 
containing gross proceeds provisions.  The estimated 
amount of the Partnership's liability, in the event that 
the plaintiffs are ultimately successful, is approximately 
$106,000.
