          1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
             -------------------

             The   balance  sheets  as   of  March  31,  1995,  statements  of
             operations for  the three months ended  March 31,  1995 and 1994,
             and  statements of cash  flows for  the three  months ended March
             31,   1995  and  1994  have  been  prepared   by  Dyco  Petroleum
             Corporation ("Dyco"),  the General  Partner of the  Dyco Oil  and
             Gas Program 1981-1  Limited Partnership (the "Program"),  without
             audit.  In  the  opinion  of  management  all adjustments  (which
             include  only normal recurring  adjustments) necessary to present
             fairly the financial position at March  31, 1995, and results  of
             operations and changes in cash flows  for the three months  ended
             March 31, 1995 and 1994 have been made.

             Information  and  footnote  disclosures   normally  included   in
             financial  statements  prepared  in  accordance  with   generally
             accepted  accounting principles  have been condensed  or omitted.
             It is  suggested  that  these  financial statements  be  read  in
             conjunction  with  the  financial  statements and  notes  thereto
             included in  the Program's  Annual Report  on Form  10-K for  the
             year  ended December 31, 1994.  The results of operations for the
             period  ended March  31, 1995  are not  necessarily indicative of
             the results to be expected for the full year.  

             The limited  partners' net income or loss per unit  is based upon
             each $5,000 initial capital contribution.

             OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES
             ----------------------

             Oil and  gas operations  are accounted  for using  the full  cost
             method  of accounting.   All productive  and non-productive costs
             associated with  the acquisition, exploration  and development of
             oil and gas reserves are capitalized.   Sales and abandonments of
             properties are accounted for  as adjustments of capitalized costs
             with  no gain or  loss recognized,  unless such adjustments would
             significantly alter  the relationship  between capitalized  costs
             and proved oil and gas reserves.

             The provision  for depreciation,  depletion, and amortization  of
             oil and gas properties is calculated by dividing  the oil and gas
             sales  dollars during  the  year by  the  estimated  future gross
             income  from  the  oil  and  gas  properties  and  applying   the
             resulting  rate  to  the  net  remaining  costs  of  oil  and gas
             properties  that  have been  capitalized,  plus estimated  future
             development costs.

          2. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
             ---------------------------------

             Under the terms of the Program's  partnership agreement, Dyco  is
             entitled to receive  a reimbursement for all direct expenses  and
             general and administrative, geological  and engineering  expenses
             it incurs  on behalf  of the Program.   During  the three  months
             ended March 31, 1995 and 1994  such expenses totaled $22,136  and
             $20,743, respectively, of which $12,513 and $12,513  were paid to
             Dyco.  

             Affiliates  of the Program  are the  operators of  certain of the
             Program's properties and their policy is  to bill the Program for
             all customary  charges  and cost  reimbursements associated  with
             their   activities,  together   with  any   compressor   rentals,
             consulting, or other services provided.

             The  Program sells gas  at market  prices to  Premier Gas Company
             ("Premier"), an affiliated company,  and Premier may  then resell
             such gas to  third parties at  market prices.   During the  three
             months ended March 31, 1995 and  1994 these sales totaled $52,017
             and  $115,778, respectively,  respectively.    At March  31, 1995
             accrued oil and gas sales included $24,466 due from Premier.

          3. CONTINGENCY
             -----------

             On November  12, 1992,  two individuals  filed a  lawsuit against
             Dyco and others in which the  plaintiffs alleged damages to their
             land as  a result of remediation  operations conducted  on one of
             the  Program's  wells located  on  an  adjoining property.    The
             lawsuit  alleged  claims based  on negligence,  private nuisance,
             public   nuisance,  trespass,   unjust  enrichment,  constructive
             fraud,  and permanent  injunctive relief,  all in  amounts  to be
             determined  at trial.   A  trial was  conducted in  the matter on
             February 22, 1994  in which the jury  entered a verdict  in favor
             of  the plaintiffs in  the amount  of approximately $5.5 million,
             consisting  of approximately $2.7  million in  actual damages and
             approximately  $2.7  million  in   punitive  damages.    Dyco  is
             presently  appealing the  matter.    Included in  these financial
             statements as  of March  31, 1995  is an  accrual by  the General
             Partner of $20,000 representing  the Program's share of estimated
             ultimate damages resulting from this contingency.

           CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
          -------------------------------

               Net proceeds from  the Program's  operations less  necessary
               operating  capital  are  distributed   to  investors  on   a
               quarterly  basis.  The net  proceeds from production are not
               reinvested in  productive assets, except to  the extent that
               producing wells are improved,  or where methods are employed
               to permit more efficient  recovery of the Program's reserves
               which would result in a positive economic impact.

               The Program's  available capital from subscriptions has been
               spent  on oil and gas drilling activities.  There should not
               be any further material  capital resource commitments in the
               future.  The Program has no bank debt commitments.  Cash for
               operational purposes will be provided by current oil and gas
               production.

          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          ---------------------

               THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH  31, 1995 AS COMPARED TO  THE THREE
               MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1994.
                                                 Three Months ended March 31, 
                                                 ---------------------------- 
                                                      1995          1994     
                                                      ----          ----     
                  Oil and gas sales                 $68,700      $128,560   
                  Oil and gas production expenses   $26,989      $ 56,863   
                  Barrels produced                      142           170   
                  Mcf produced                       52,218        65,338   
                  Average price/Bbl                 $ 15.59      $  10.08   
                  Average price/Mcf                 $  1.27      $   1.94   

               As shown in the  table, oil and natural gas  sales decreased
               46.6%  for the three months ended March 31, 1995 as compared
               to the three months ended March 31, 1994.  This decrease was
               due to decreases in the volumes of oil and natural  gas sold
               and a decrease  in the  average price of  natural gas  sold,
               partially  offset by an increase in the average price of oil
               sold.  Volumes  of oil and natural gas sold  decreased by 28
               barrels and  13,120 Mcf, respectively, for  the three months
               ended March 31, 1995  as compared to the three  months ended
               March 31, 1994.  The decrease in volumes of oil and  natural
               gas  sold  was  primarily  due  to  the  normal  decline  in
               production  from  diminished oil  and natural  gas reserves.
               Average natural  gas prices decreased  to $1.27 per  Mcf for
               the three months ended March 31, 1995 from $1.94 per Mcf for
               the three  months ended March  31, 1994,  while average  oil
               prices increased to  $15.59 per barrel for the  three months
               ended  March 31, 1995 from  $10.08 per barrel  for the three

               months ended March 31, 1994.

               Oil and  gas production expenses (including  lease operating
               expenses and  production taxes)  decreased  $29,874 for  the
               three months ended March  31, 1995 as compared to  the three
               months  ended March 31,  1994.  This  decrease was primarily
               the result of an accrual for certain litigation costs during
               the  three months ended March  31, 1994 and  the decrease in
               the volumes of  oil and  natural gas sold  during the  three
               months  ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the three months
               ended March 31, 1994.  As a percentage of oil and gas sales,
               these expenses decreased to 39.3% for the three months ended
               March 31, 1995 from  44.2% for the three months  ended March
               31,  1994.  This percentage decrease  was primarily a result
               of the accrual for certain litigation costs during the three
               months ended  March 31,  1994 as discussed  above, partially
               offset by the decrease  in the average price of  natural gas
               sold  during  the  three  months  ended  March 31,  1995  as
               compared to the three months ended March 31, 1994. 

               Depreciation, depletion,  and  amortization of  oil and  gas
               properties decreased $6,125 for the three months ended March
               31, 1995 as  compared to  the three months  ended March  31,
               1994.    This  dollar   decrease  was  consistent  with  the
               decreases in  volumes of  oil and  natural gas  sold.  As  a
               percentage of oil  and gas sales, this  expense increased to
               18.4% for the three  months ended March 31, 1995  from 14.6%
               for  the three months ended March 31, 1994.  This percentage
               increase  was primarily  the result  of the decrease  in the
               average price of  natural gas sold, partially  offset by the
               increase in the average  price of oil sold during  the three
               months  ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the three months
               ended March 31, 1994.

               General  and administrative  expenses increased  slightly by
               $1,393 for the three months ended March 31, 1995 as compared
               to the three  months ended March 31, 1994.   As a percentage
               of  oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to 32.2% for
               the three months  ended March  31, 1995 from  16.1% for  the
               three months ended March 31, 1994.  This percentage increase
               was a result  of the decreases in volumes of oil and natural
               gas  sold  and  the  average  price  of  natural  gas  sold,
               partially offset by the increase in the average price of oil
               sold  during  the  three  months ended  March  31,  1995  as
               compared to the three months ended March 31, 1994.
