CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1999
(Unaudited)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
-------------------
The balance sheet as of June 30, 1999, statements of operations for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, and statements of cash
flows for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 have been prepared
by Dyco Petroleum Corporation ("Dyco"), the General Partner of the Dyco
Oil and Gas Program 1981-2 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 June 30, 1999, results of operations for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, and changes in cash flows for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 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, 1998. The results of operations for the period
ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.
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. The Program's calculation of depreciation, depletion, and
amortization includes estimated future expenditures to be incurred in
developing proved reserves and estimated dismantlement and abandonment
costs, net of estimated salvage values. In the event the unamortized cost
of oil and gas properties being amortized exceeds the full cost ceiling
(as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission), the excess is
charged to expense in the period during which such excess occurs. Sales
and abandonments of
-6-
<PAGE>
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 period 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 June 30, 1999 and 1998 the
Program incurred such expenses totaling $12,923 and $13,157, respectively,
of which $11,988 was paid each period to Dyco and its affiliates. During
the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 the Program incurred such
expenses totaling $36,151 and $36,600, respectively, of which $23,976 was
paid each period to Dyco and its affiliates.
Affiliates of the Program operate certain of the Program's properties.
Their policy is to bill the Program for all customary charges and cost
reimbursements associated with these activities.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
USE OF FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
- -----------------------------------------------
This Quarterly Report contains certain forward-looking statements. The
words "anticipate", "believe", "expect", "plan", "intend", "estimate",
"project", "could", "may" and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect management's current
views with respect to future events and financial performance. This
Quarterly Report also includes certain information, which is, or is based
upon, estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions are
management's efforts to accurately reflect the condition and operation of
the Program.
Use of forward-looking statements and estimates and assumptions involve
risks and uncertainties which include, but are not limited to, the
volatility of oil and gas prices, the uncertainty of reserve information,
the operating risk associated with oil and gas properties (including the
risk of personal injury, death, property damage, damage to the well or
producing reservoir, environmental contamination, and other operating
risks), the prospect of changing tax and regulatory laws, the availability
and capacity of processing and transportation facilities, the general
economic climate, the supply and price of foreign imports of oil and gas,
the level of consumer product demand, and the price and availability of
alternative fuels. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties
occur or should estimates or underlying assumptions prove incorrect,
actual conditions or results may vary materially and adversely from those
stated, anticipated, believed, estimated, and otherwise indicated.
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.
-8-
<PAGE>
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 debt
commitments. Cash for operational purposes will be provided by current oil
and gas production.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
GENERAL DISCUSSION
The following general discussion should be read in conjunction with the
analysis of results of operations provided below. The most important
variable affecting the Program's revenues is the prices received for the
sale of oil and gas. Due to the volatility of oil and gas prices,
forecasting future prices is subject to great uncertainty and inaccuracy.
Substantially all of the Program's gas reserves are being sold on the
"spot market". Prices on the spot market are subject to wide seasonal and
regional pricing fluctuations due to the highly competitive nature of the
spot market. Such spot market sales are generally short-term in nature and
are dependent upon the obtaining of transportation services provided by
pipelines. In addition, crude oil prices were recently at or near their
lowest level in the past decade due primarily to the global surplus of
crude oil. However, oil prices have rebounded during the first half of
1999 primarily due to a decrease in the global oil surplus as a result of
production curtailments by several major oil producing nations. Management
is unable to predict whether future oil and gas prices will (i) stabilize,
(ii) increase, or (iii) decrease.
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE
30, 1998.
Three Months Ended June 30,
---------------------------
1999 1998
------- -------
Oil and gas sales $77,613 $67,257
Oil and gas production expenses $28,977 $21,207
Barrels produced 318 184
Mcf produced 38,316 31,421
Average price/Bbl $ 13.03 $ 12.14
Average price/Mcf $ 1.92 $ 2.07
As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales increased $10,356
(15.4%) for the three months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the three
months ended June 30, 1998. Of this increase, approximately $2,000 and
$14,000,
-9-
<PAGE>
respectively, were related to increases in volumes of oil and gas sold,
which increases were partially offset by a decrease of approximately
$6,000 related to a decrease in the average price of gas sold. Volumes of
oil and gas sold increased 134 barrels and 6,895 Mcf, respectively, for
the three months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the three months ended
June 30, 1998. The increase in volumes of oil sold was primarily due to
the successful completion of a new well in late 1998. The increase in
volumes of gas sold was primarily due to (i) the successful completion of
a new well in late 1998 and (ii) receipt of a reduced percentage of sales
on one well during the three months ended June 30, 1998 due to the
Program's overproduced gas balancing position in that well. Average oil
prices increased to $13.03 per barrel for the three months ended June 30,
1999 from $12.14 per barrel for the three months ended June 30, 1998.
Average gas prices decreased to $1.92 per Mcf for the three months ended
June 30, 1999 from $2.07 per Mcf for the three months ended June 30, 1998.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) increased $7,770 (36.6%) for the three months ended June
30, 1999 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1998. This
increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in legal fees on one well
during the three months ended June 30, 1999 related to a gas balancing and
collections matter initiated by the operator of the well and (ii) an
increase in lease operating expenses associated with the increase in
volumes of oil and gas sold. This increase was partially offset by a
decrease primarily due to the sale of one well during late 1998. As a
percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to 37.3% for the
three months ended June 30, 1999 from 31.5% for the three months ended
June 30, 1998. This percentage increase was primarily due to the dollar
increase in oil and gas production expenses and the decrease in the
average price of gas sold.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $3,189 (37.5%) for the three months ended June 30, 1999 as
compared to the three months ended June 30, 1998. This decrease was
primarily due to (i) upward revisions in the estimates of remaining oil
and gas reserves at December 31, 1998 and (ii) an increase in the oil and
gas prices used in the valuation of reserves at June 30, 1999 as compared
to March 31, 1999. This decrease was partially offset by an increase
associated with the increase in volumes of oil and gas sold. As a
percentage of oil and gas sales, this expense decreased to 6.8% for the
three months ended June 30, 1999 from 12.6% for the three months ended
June 30, 1998. This percentage decrease was primarily due to the dollar
decrease in depreciation, depletion, and amortization.

<PAGE>
General and administrative expenses decreased $234 (1.8%) for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the three months ended June 30,
1998. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses decreased to
16.7% for the three months ended June 30, 1999 from 19.6% for the three
months ended June 30, 1998. This percentage decrease was primarily due to
the increase in oil and gas sales.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1998.
Six Months Ended June 30,
-------------------------
1999 1998

Oil and gas sales $137,125 $142,969
Oil and gas production expenses $ 60,838 $ 51,790
Barrels produced 522 441
Mcf produced 74,540 68,752
Average price/Bbl $ 11.54 $ 12.39
Average price/Mcf $ 1.76 $ 2.00
As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales decreased $5,844
(4.1%) for the six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the six
months ended June 30, 1998. Of this decrease, approximately $18,000 was
related to a decrease in the average price of gas sold. This decrease was
partially offset by increases of approximately $1,000 and $12,000,
respectively, related to increases in volumes of oil and gas sold. Volumes
of oil and gas sold increased 81 barrels and 5,788 Mcf, respectively, for
the six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the six months ended
June 30, 1998. The increases in volumes of oil and gas sold were primarily
due to the successful completion of a new gas well in late 1998. Average
oil and gas prices decreased to $11.54 per barrel and $1.76 per Mcf,
respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $12.39 per
barrel and $2.00 per Mcf, respectively, for the six months ended June 30,
1998.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) increased $9,048 (17.5%) for the six months ended June
30, 1999 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1998. This increase
was primarily due to an increase in legal fees on one well during the six
months ended June 30, 1999 related to a gas balancing and collections
matter initiated by the operator of that well. This increase was partially
offset by a decrease primarily due to the sale of one well during late
1998. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to
44.4% for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from 36.2% for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. This percentage increase was primarily due to the
decreases in the average prices of
-11-
<PAGE>
oil and gas sold and the dollar increase in oil and gas production
expenses.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $3,507 (21.4%) for the six months ended June 30, 1999 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1998. This decrease was
primarily due to (i) upward revisions in the estimates of remaining oil
and gas reserves at December 31, 1998 and (ii) an increase in the oil and
gas prices used in the valuation of reserves at June 30, 1999 as compared
to June 30, 1998. This decrease was partially offset by an increase
associated with the increase in volumes of oil and gas sold. As a
percentage of oil and gas sales, this expense decreased to 9.4% for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 from 11.5% for the six months ended June
30, 1998. This percentage decrease was primarily due to the dollar
decrease in depreciation, depletion, and amortization.
General and administrative expenses decreased $449 (1.2%) for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
1998. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to
26.4% for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from 25.6% for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. This percentage increase was primarily due to the
decrease in oil and gas sales.
YEAR 2000 COMPUTER ISSUES
- -------------------------
IN GENERAL
The Year 2000 Issue ("Y2K") refers to the inability of computer and other
information technology systems to properly process date and time
information, stemming from the earlier programming practice of using two
digits rather than four to represent the year in a date. For example,
computer programs and imbedded chips that are date sensitive may recognize
a date using (00) as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. The
consequence of Y2K is that computer and imbedded processing systems may be
at risk of malfunctioning, particularly during the transition from 1999 to
2000.
The effects of Y2K are exacerbated by the interdependence of computer and
telecommunication systems throughout the world. This interdependence also
exists among the Program, Samson Investment Company and its affiliates
("Samson"), and their vendors, customers, and business partners, as well
as with regulators. The potential risks associated with Y2K for an oil and
gas production company fall into three general areas: (i) financial,
leasehold and administrative computer systems, (ii) imbedded systems in
field process control units, and (iii) third party exposures. As discussed
below,
-12-
<PAGE>
Dyco does not believe that these risks will be material to the Program's
operations.
The Program's business is producing oil and gas. The day-to-day production
of the Program's oil and gas is not dependent on computers or equipment
with imbedded chips. As further discussed below, management anticipates
that the Program's daily business activities will not be materially
affected by Y2K.
The Program relies on Samson to provide all of its operational and
administrative services on either a direct or indirect basis. Samson is
addressing each of the three Y2K areas discussed above through a readiness
process that seeks to:
1. increase the awareness of the issue among key employees;
2. identify areas of potential risk;
3. assess the relative impact of these risks and Samson's ability to
manage them; and
4. remediate these risks on a priority basis wherever possible.
One of Samson Investment Company's Executive Vice Presidents is
responsible for communicating to its Board of Directors Y2K actions and
for the ultimate implementation of its Y2K plan. He has delegated to
Samson Investment Company's Senior Vice President-Technology and
Administrative Services principal responsibility for ensuring Y2K
compliance within Samson.
Samson has been planning for the impact of Y2K on its information
technology systems since 1993. As of July 15, 1999, Samson is in the final
stages of implementation of a Y2K plan, as summarized below:
FINANCIAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE SYSTEMS
1. Awareness. Samson has alerted its officers, managers and supervisors of
Y2K issues and asked them to have their employees participate in the
identification of potential Y2K risks which might otherwise go unnoticed
by higher level employees and officers. As a result, awareness of the
issue is considered high.
2. Risk Identification. Samson's most significant financial and
administrative systems exposure is the Y2K status of the accounting and
land administration system used to collect and manage data for internal
management decision making and for external revenue and accounts payable
purposes. Other concerns include network hardware and
-13-
<PAGE>
software, desktop computing hardware and software, telecommunications,
and office space readiness.
3. Risk Assessment. The failure to identify and correct a material Y2K
problem could result in inaccurate or untimely financial information for
management decision-making or cash flow and payment purposes, including
maintaining oil and gas leases.
4. Remediation. Since 1993, Samson has been upgrading its accounting and
land administration software. Substantially all of the Y2K upgrades have
been completed, with the remainder scheduled to be completed during the
3rd quarter of 1999. In addition, in 1997 and 1998 Samson replaced or
applied software patches to substantially all of its network and desktop
software applications and believes them to be generally Y2K compliant.
Additional patches or software upgrades will be applied no later than
September 30, 1999 to complete this process. The costs of all such risk
assessments and remediation are not expected to be material to the
Program.
5. Contingency Planning. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should there be
significant unanticipated disruptions in Samson's financial and
administrative systems, all of the accounting processes that are currently
automated will need to be performed manually. Samson has communicated to
its management team the importance of having adequate staff available to
manually perform necessary functions to minimize disruptions.
IMBEDDED SYSTEMS
1. Awareness. Samson's Y2K program has involved all levels of field
personnel from production foremen and higher. Employees at all levels of
the organization have been asked to participate in the identification of
potential Y2K risks, which might otherwise go unnoticed by higher level
employees and officers of Samson, and as a result, awareness of the issue
is considered high.
2. Risk Identification. Samson has inventoried all possible exposures to
imbedded chips and systems. Such exposures can be classified as either (i)
oil and gas production and processing equipment or (ii) office machines
such as faxes, copiers, phones, etc.
With respect to oil and gas production and processing equipment, neither
Samson nor the Program operate offshore wells, significant processing
plants, or wells with older electronic monitoring systems. As a result,
Samson's inventory identified less than 10 applications using imbedded
chips. All of these have been tested by the
-14-
<PAGE>
respective vendors and have been found to be Y2K compliant or have been
upgraded or replaced.
Office machines have been tested by Samson and vendors and are believed to
be compliant.
3. Risk Assessment and Remediation. The failure to identify and correct a
material Y2K problem in an imbedded system could result in outcomes
ranging from errors in data reporting to curtailments or shutdowns in
production. As noted above, Samson has identified less than 10 imbedded
system applications all of which have been made compliant or replaced.
Samson believes that sufficient manual processes are available to minimize
any field level risk and that there will be no material impact on the
Program with respect to these applications.
4. Contingency Planning. Should material production disruptions occur as a
result of Y2K failures in field operations, Samson will utilize its
existing field personnel in an attempt to avoid any material impact on
operating cash flow. Samson is not able to quantify any potential exposure
in the event of systems failure or inadequate manual alternatives.
THIRD PARTY EXPOSURES
1. Awareness. Samson has advised management to consider Y2K implications
with its outside vendors, customers, and business partners. Management has
been asked to participate in the identification of potential third party
Y2K risks and, as a result, awareness of the issue is considered high.
2. Risk Identification. Samson's most significant third party Y2K exposure
is its dependence on third parties for the receipt of revenues from oil
and gas sales. However, virtually all of these purchasers are very large
and sophisticated companies. Other Y2K concerns include the availability
of electric power to Samson's field operations, the integrity of
telecommunication systems, and the readiness of commercial banks to
execute electronic fund transfers.
3. Risk Assessment. Because of the high awareness of the Y2K problem in
the U.S., Samson has not undertaken and does not plan to undertake a
formal company wide plan to make inquiries of third parties on the subject
of Y2K readiness. If it did so, Samson has no ability to require responses
to such inquiries or to independently verify their accuracy. Samson has,
however, received oral assurances from its significant oil and gas
purchasers of Y2K compliance. If significant disruptions from major
purchasers were to occur, however, there could be a material and adverse
impact on the

Program's results of operations, liquidity, and financial conditions.
It is important to note that third party oil and gas purchasers have
significant incentives to avoid disruptions arising from a Y2K failure.
For example, most of these parties are under contractual obligations to
purchase oil and gas or disperse revenues to Samson. The failure to do so
will result in contractual and statutory penalties. Therefore, Samson
believes that it is unlikely that there will be material third party
non-compliance with purchase and remittance obligations as a result of Y2K
issues.
4. Remediation. Where Samson perceives significant risk of Y2K
non-compliance that may have a material impact on it, and where the
relationship between Samson and a vendor, customer, or business partner
permits, joint testing may be undertaken during the remainder of 1999 to
further identify these risks.
5. Contingency Planning. In the unlikely event that material production
disruptions occur as a result of Y2K failures of third parties, the
Program's operating cash flow could be impacted. This contingency will be
factored into deliberations on the level of quarterly cash distributions
paid out during any such period of cash flow disruption.
