                CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             JUNE 30, 1996
                              (Unaudited)


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

     The balance sheet as  of June 30, 1996, statements  of operations
     for the  three and six months  ended June 30, 1996  and 1995, and
     statements of  cash flows for the six  months ended June 30, 1996
     and  1995  have  been  prepared  by  Dyco  Petroleum  Corporation
     ("Dyco"), the General  Partner of  the Dyco Oil  and Gas  Program
     1984-1 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 June 30, 1996,  results of operations  for the three
     and  six months ended June 30, 1996  and 1995 and changes in cash
     flows for the  six months ended June 30, 1996  and 1995 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, 1995.   The  results  of operations  for the
     period  ended June 30, 1996 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.    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  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  June 30, 1996 and  1995 such expenses  totaled $19,812 and
     $20,746 respectively, of  which $15,654 and $15,654  were paid to
     Dyco.   During the six months  ended June 30, 1996  and 1995 such
     expenses  totaled  $42,441  and  $43,548 respectively,  of  which
     $31,308 and $31,308 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 sold  gas at  market prices  to Premier  Gas Company
     ("Premier")  and Premier then resold such gas to third parties at
     market prices.   Premier was  an affiliate of  the Program  until
     December 6, 1995.   During the  three months ended June  30, 1995
     these  sales totaled $83,109.   During the six  months ended June
     30, 1995 these  sales totaled  $162,400.  At  December 31,  1995,
     accrued oil and gas sales included $52,780 due from Premier.


3.   CONTINGENCIES
     -------------

     On  October 15, 1993 and October 26, 1993, certain royalty owners
     filed  two  class  action  lawsuits  against  Dyco in  which  the
     plaintiffs  alleged entitlement to a share of proceeds of a take-
     or-pay settlement  with specified  gas purchasers.   The lawsuits
     allege claims based on unjust enrichment, breach of contract, and
     breach  of  fiduciary  obligations  and seek  an  accounting  and
     declaration  that the  plaintiffs are third  party beneficiaries.
     The plaintiffs have  not quantified the amount of  their damages,
     but  they are  seeking exemplary  damages, unpaid  royalties, and
     interest.  Dyco has filed its  answer in both matters in which it
     denied  all of the  plaintiffs' allegations.   The district court
     certified  the matters as class  actions on January  21, 1994 and
     January 18,  1994, respectively,  and discovery is  proceeding in
     both  matters.   On  November 29,  1994,  the plaintiffs  filed a
     motion for summary  judgment in  both matters.   Dyco intends  to
     vigorously  defend the  lawsuits.    As  of  the  date  of  these
     financial  statements, Management cannot  determine the amount of
     the  alleged damages which would be allocable to the Program from
     these lawsuits.

     On December  18, 1992, a royalty owner filed a quiet title action
     alleging  that the operator of certain wells in which the Program
     has  an interest failed to exercise due diligence in locating the
     owner  while in  the process  of force  pooling the  drilling and
     spacing unit.  Plaintiff claimed a right to revenues attributable
     to  production from said wells in an amount in excess of $500,000
     and further alleged  conversion and claimed a right to "interest"
     on the proceeds  from production on the well pursuant  to 52 O.S.
     Section 540.  The defendants filed a counterclaim for quiet title
     and asserted various defenses.  A trial was held in the matter on

                                  -7-
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
     March 3 and 4, 1994 in which the district court ruled against all
     defendants  and  specifically  found that  the  operator,  Apache
     Corporation,  did  not  exercise  due diligence  in  the  pooling
     proceedings.    Judgement was  entered on  June  15, 1994  in the
     amount of  $500,000 plus interest.   The defendants  appealed the
     district court's verdict and on March 12, 1996 the Oklahoma Court
     of Appeals reversed the district court's verdict.  Plaintiff  has
     filed a petition for rehearing with the Oklahoma Court of Appeals
     which was denied on May  14, 1996.  The plaintiffs then  filed on
     July 19, 1996  a writ  for certiorari with  the Oklahoma  Supreme
     Court seeking a further appeal of the matter.

     Included in these  financial statements as  of December 31,  1995
     and June  30, 1996 is  an accrual by  the General Partner  in the
     amount of  $20,000 representing the Program's  share of estimated
     ultimate  damages  resulting from  the  quiet title  action.   No
     accrual has been established for the take-or-pay lawsuit.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 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.    Over the  last  several years,  the
     domestic  energy industry  and  the Program  have contended  with
     volatile, but generally low,  oil and gas prices.  Over  the past
     few years,  the oil and  gas market  appears to  have moved  from
     periods  of relative  stability in  supply and  demand to  excess
     supply  or weakened  demand.    These  trends  have  led  to  the
     volatility in pricing and demand noted over the past years.

     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 JUNE  30, 1996 AS COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS
     ENDED JUNE 30, 1995.
                                      Three months ended June 30,
                                      ---------------------------
                                          1996            1995
                                        --------         ------
      Oil and gas sales                 $116,235         $93,756
      Oil and gas production expenses   $ 21,041         $34,097
      Barrels produced                       450             596
      Mcf produced                        48,460          53,621
      Average price/Bbl                 $  19.07         $ 17.86
      Average price/Mcf                 $   2.22         $  1.55
 
     As  shown in  the  table, oil  and  natural gas  sales  increased
     $22,479  (24.0%)  for the  three months  ended  June 30,  1996 as
     compared  to the  three  months ended  June  30, 1995.    Of this
     increase,  $35,926 was  related  to the  increase in  the average
     price of natural gas sold, partially offset by a $14,241 decrease
     related to the  decreases in the volumes  of oil and natural  gas
     sold.  Volumes of oil and natural sold decreased  146 barrels and
     5,161 Mcf, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 1996
     as  compared to  the  three  months ended  June  30, 1995.    The
     decrease in the volumes of oil and natural gas sold was primarily
     due to normal declines in  production from diminished reserves on
     two wells during the three months ended June 30, 1996 as compared
     to the three months ended June 30, 1995.  Average oil and natural
     gas  prices increased  to $19.07  per barrel  and $2.22  per Mcf,
     respectively,  for  the three  months  ended June  30,  1996 from
     $17.86  per barrel and $1.55 per Mcf, respectively, for the three
     months ended June 30, 1995.  

                                  -9-

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses and  production taxes)  decreased $13,056 for  the three
     months ended June  30, 1996 as compared to the three months ended
     June  30,  1995.   This  decrease  resulted  primarily  from  (i)
     decreases in the volumes  of oil and natural gas sold  during the
     three months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to  the three months
     ended  June 30, 1995 and  (ii) workover expenses  incurred on one
     well during the three  months ended June 30, 1995  which resulted
     in its abandonment during  the three months ended June  30, 1995.
     As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses decreased to
     18.1% for the three months ended June 30, 1996 from 36.4% for the
     three months ended June  30, 1995.  This percentage  decrease was
     primarily  due to  the  decrease in  workover expenses  mentioned
     above and the  increases in the average prices of oil and natural
     gas sold during the three months  ended June 30, 1996 as compared
     to the three months ended June 30, 1995.

     Depreciation,  depletion,  and   amortization  of  oil  and   gas
     properties decreased $11,202 for the three  months ended June 30,
     1996 as compared  to the three months ended June  30, 1995.  This
     decrease  was primarily the result of decreases in the volumes of
     oil and natural gas sold  during the three months ended June  30,
     1996 as compared  to the three months ended June  30, 1995 and an
     upward  revision  in  the  estimate of  the  Program's  remaining
     natural gas reserves  at December 31, 1995.   As a  percentage of
     oil and gas sales, this expense  decreased to 22.8% for the three
     months ended June 30, 1996 from 40.3%  for the three months ended
     June 30, 1995.  This percentage decrease was primarily due to the
     upward  revision  in  the   remaining  natural  gas  reserves  as
     discussed  above and the increases  in the average  prices of oil
     and natural gas sold  during the three months ended June 30, 1996
     as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1995.

     General and  administrative  expenses decreased  $934 during  the
     three  months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the three months
     ended June 30, 1995.  As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these
     expenses decreased to 17.0%  for the three months ended  June 30,
     1996 from 22.1%  for the three months ended June  30, 1995.  This
     percentage  decrease was primarily the result of increases in the
     average  prices  of oil  and natural  gas  sold during  the three
     months ended  June 30, 1996 as compared to the three months ended
     June 30, 1995.

     SIX  MONTHS ENDED JUNE  30, 1996  AS COMPARED  TO THE  SIX MONTHS
     ENDED JUNE 30, 1995.
                                       Six months ended June 30,

                                        --------         ------
      Oil and gas sales                 $233,014        $198,144
      Oil and gas production expenses   $ 56,665        $101,199
      Barrels produced                       952           1,207
      Mcf produced                       103,014         126,081
      Average price/Bbl                 $  18.87        $  17.45
      Average price/Mcf                 $   2.09        $   1.40

     As  shown in  the  table, oil  and  natural gas  sales  increased
     $34,870  (17.6%)  for  the six  months  ended  June  30, 1996  as
     compared  to  the six  months  ended  June  30,  1995.   Of  this
     increase, $86,996  was  related to  the increase  in the  average
     price of natural gas sold, partially offset by a $53,022 decrease

                                 -10-

     related to the  decreases in the  volumes of oil and  natural gas
     sold.   Volumes of oil and natural gas sold decreased 255 barrels
     and 23,067 Mcf, respectively,  for the six months ended  June 30,
     1996  as compared  to the six  months ended  June 30,  1995.  The
     decrease in the volumes of oil and natural gas sold was primarily
     due to normal declines in production from  diminished reserves on
     two wells during  the six months ended June  30, 1996 as compared
     to the six  months ended June 30, 1995.   Average oil and natural
     gas  prices increased  to $18.87  per barrel  and $2.09  per Mcf,
     respectively,  for the six months ended June 30, 1996 from $17.45
     per  barrel and $1.40 per  Mcf, respectively, for  the six months
     ended June 30, 1995.

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses  and production  taxes)  decreased $44,534  for the  six
     months ended June  30, 1996 as compared  to the six months  ended
     June  30, 1995.    This  decrease  resulted  primarily  from  (i)
     decreases in the  volumes of oil and natural  gas sold during the
     six months  ended June  30, 1996  as compared to  the six  months
     ended  June 30, 1995, (ii) workover expenses incurred on one well
     during the six  months ended June 30, 1995 which  resulted in its
     abandonment  during the six months ended June 30, 1995, and (iii)
     a decrease in  compression expenses  on one well  during the  six
     months  ended June 30, 1996  as compared to  the six months ended
     June  30, 1995.   As  a percentage  of oil  and gas  sales, these
     expenses decreased to  24.3% for  the six months  ended June  30,
     1996  from 51.1% for  the six months  ended June 30,  1995.  This
     percentage decrease was primarily due to the decrease in workover
     and compression expenses mentioned above and the increases in the
     average prices  of oil and natural gas sold during the six months
     ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the six months  ended June 30,
     1995.

     Depreciation,   depletion,  and  amortization   of  oil  and  gas
     properties decreased  $22,874 for the  six months ended  June 30,
     1996  as compared to  the six months  ended June 30,  1995.  This
     decrease  was primarily the result of decreases in the volumes of
     oil and natural  gas sold during  the six  months ended June  30,
     1996  as compared to  the six months  ended June 30,  1995 and an
     upward  revision  in  the  estimate of  the  Program's  remaining
     natural gas  reserves at December 31,  1995.  As  a percentage of
     oil and gas sales,  this expense decreased to  22.7% for the  six
     months ended  June 30, 1996 from  38.3% for the six  months ended
     June 30, 1995.  This percentage decrease was primarily due to the
     upward  revision  in  the   remaining  natural  gas  reserves  as
     discussed  above and the increases  in the average  prices of oil
     and natural gas sold during the six months ended June 30, 1996 as
     compared to the six months ended June 30, 1995.

     General and  administrative expenses decreased  $1,107 during the
     six months  ended June  30, 1996 as  compared to  the six  months
     ended June 30,  1995.   This decrease resulted  primarily from  a
     decrease in printing and  postage expenses during the six  months
     ended June  30, 1996 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
     1995.   As  a percentage  of oil  and gas  sales, these  expenses
     decreased to 18.2%  for the six  months ended June 30,  1996 from
     22.0%  for the six months  ended June 30,  1995.  This percentage
     decrease was  primarily the  result of  increases in the  average
     prices of  oil and natural gas  sold during the six  months ended
     June 30, 1996 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1995.
