DYCO OIL AND GAS PROGRAM 1982-2 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2000
(Unaudited)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
-------------------
The balance sheets as of March 31, 2000, statements of operations for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, and statements of cash flows
for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 have been prepared by
Dyco Petroleum Corporation ("Dyco"), the General Partner of the Dyco Oil
and Gas Program 1982-1 and 1982-2 Limited Partnerships (individually, the
"1982-1 Program" or the "1982-2 Program", as the case may be, or,
collectively, the "Programs"), 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, 2000,
results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999,
and changes in cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and
1999 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 Programs' Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1999. The results of operations for the period
ended March 31, 2000 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. The Programs' 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
-8-
<PAGE>
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 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 each 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, 2000 and
1999 the 1982-1 Program incurred such expenses totaling $19,240 and
$37,271, respectively, of which $9,240 and $18,615, respectively, was paid
each period to Dyco and its affiliates. During the three months ended
March 31, 2000 and 1999 the 1982-2 Program incurred such expenses totaling
$21,608 and $29,545, respectively, of which $12,156 and $14,610,
respectively, was paid each period to Dyco and its affiliates.
Affiliates of the Program operate certain of the Programs' properties.
Their policy is to bill the Programs for all customary charges and cost
reimbursements associated with these activities.
The payables to General Partner at March 31, 2000 represent audit fees
paid by the General Partner on behalf of the Programs. These amounts were
reimbursed to the General Partner in April 2000.

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 Programs.
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 Programs' 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 Programs' reserves which
would result in a positive economic impact.
The Programs' available capital from subscriptions has been spent on oil
and gas drilling activities. There should be no further material capital
resource commitments in the future. The Programs have no debt commitments.
Management believes that cash for ordinary operational purposes will be
provided by current oil and gas production.
-10-
<PAGE>
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
variables affecting the Programs' revenues are the prices received for the
sale of oil and gas and the volumes of oil and gas produced. The Program's
production is mainly natural gas, so such pricing and volumes are the most
significant factors.
Due to the volatility of oil and gas prices, forecasting future prices is
subject to great uncertainty and inaccuracy. Substantially all of the
Programs' 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. It is likewise
difficult to predict production volumes. However, oil and gas are
depleting assets, so it can be expected that production levels will
decline over time. Recent gas prices have been higher than the Program's
historical average. This is attributable to the higher prices for crude
oil, a substitute fuel in some markets, and reduced production due to low
prices in 1998.
1982-1 PROGRAM
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH
31, 1999.
Three Months Ended March 31,
----------------------------
2000 1999
------- -------
Oil and gas sales $51,659 $33,507
Oil and gas production expenses $15,181 $17,346
Barrels produced 141 95
Mcf produced 21,668 20,679
Average price/Bbl $ 27.44 $ 10.89
Average price/Mcf $ 2.21 $ 1.57
As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales increased $18,152
(54.2%) for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the three
months ended March 31, 1999. Of this increase, approximately $2,000 and
$14,000, respectively, were related to increases in the average prices of
oil and gas sold. Volumes of oil and gas sold increased 46 barrels and 989
Mcf, respectively, for the
-11-
<PAGE>
three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the three months ended
March 31, 1999. Average oil and gas prices increased to $27.44 per barrel
and $2.21 per Mcf, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2000
from $10.89 per barrel and $1.57 per Mcf, respectively, for the three
months ended March 31, 1999.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) decreased $2,165 (12.5%) for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1999. This
decrease was primarily due to a decrease in repair and maintenance
expenses on two wells during the three months ended March 31, 2000 as
compared to the three months ended March 31, 1999. As a percentage of oil
and gas sales, these expenses decreased to 29.4% for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from 51.8% for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
This percentage decrease was primarily due to the increases in the average
prices of oil and gas sold.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $609 (11.9%) for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as
compared to the three months ended March 31, 1999. This decrease was
primarily due to an increase in the gas price used in the valuation of
reserves at March 31, 2000 as compared to March 31, 1999. As a percentage
of oil and gas sales, this expense decreased to 8.7% for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from 15.3% for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
This percentage decrease was primarily due to the increases in the average
prices of oil and gas sold and the dollar decrease in depreciation,
depletion, and amortization.
General and administrative expenses decreased $18,031 (48.4%) for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the three months ended
March 31, 1999. This decrease was primarily due to decreases in audit fees
and indirect general and administrative expenses reimbursed to the General
Partner. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses decreased to
37.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 111.2% for the three
months ended March 31, 1999. This percentage decrease was primarily due to
the dollar decrease in general and administrative expenses and the
increase in oil and gas sales.

Oil and gas sales $109,221 $73,586
Oil and gas production expenses $ 24,629 $20,377

Mcf produced 48,048 48,771
Average price/Bbl $ 27.34 $ 11.44
Average price/Mcf $ 2.25 $ 1.51
As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales increased $35,635
(48.4%) for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the three
months ended March 31, 1999. Of this increase, approximately $36,000 was
related to an increase in the average price of gas sold. Volumes of oil
sold increased 22 barrels, while volumes of gas sold decreased 723 Mcf for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the three months
ended March 31, 1999. Average oil and gas prices increased to $27.34 per
barrel and $2.25 per Mcf, respectively, for the three months ended March
31, 2000 from $11.44 per barrel and $1.51 per Mcf, respectively, for the
three months ended March 31, 1999.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) increased $4,252 (20.9%) for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1999. This
increase was primarily due to workover expenses incurred on one well
during the three months ended March 31, 2000 in order to improve the
recovery of reserves. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses
decreased to 22.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 27.7%
for the three months ended March 31, 1999. This percentage decrease was
primarily due to the increases in the average prices of oil and gas sold.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $1,912 (20.6%) for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as
compared to the three months ended March 31, 1999. This decrease was
primarily due to an increase in the gas price used in the valuation of
reserves at March 31, 2000 as compared to March 31, 1999. As a percentage
of oil and gas sales, this expense decreased to 6.7% for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from 12.6% for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
This percentage decrease was primarily due to the increases in the average
-13-
<PAGE>
prices of oil and gas sold and the dollar decrease in depreciation,
depletion, and amortization.
General and administrative expenses decreased $7,937 (26.9%) for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the three months ended March
31, 1999. This decrease was primarily due to decreases in audit fees and
indirect general and administrative expenses reimbursed to the General
Partner. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses decreased to
19.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 40.2% for the three
months ended March 31, 1999. This percentage decrease was primarily due to
the dollar decrease in general and administrative expenses and the
increase in oil and gas sales.
YEAR 2000 COMPUTER ISSUES
- -------------------------
The year 2000 issue 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. To the knowledge
of the General Partner, the Programs have not experienced any material
effects from the year 2000 issue. Costs incurred by the Programs in order
to ensure year 2000 compatibility were not material to the Programs.
