                              (Unaudited)

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

   The  balance sheet as of  March 31, 1996,  statements of operations
   for the three months ended March 31, 1996  and 1995, and statements
   of cash  flows for the three  months ended March 31,  1996 and 1995
   have  been prepared  by  Dyco Petroleum  Corporation ("Dyco"),  the
   General  Partner of  the Dyco  Oil and  Gas Program  1984-2 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
   March  31, 1996, results of  operations for the  three months ended
   March 31, 1996  and 1995 and  changes in cash  flows for the  three
   months ended March 31, 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 March 31,
   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.   At March 31,  1995 the  unamortized cost of  oil and  gas
   properties exceeded the full cost ceiling by $122,684.  This excess
   was  charged to  expense during  the three  months ended  March 31,
   1995.   No such valuation  allowance was incurred  during the three
   months  ended March 31, 1996.  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, 1996 and 1995 such expenses totaled $20,754 and $20,893,
   respectively, of which $14,118 and $14,118 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 March 31,  1995
   these sales totaled $70,640.  At December 31, 1995, accrued oil and
   gas sales included $66,414 due from Premier.

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.

     due to an increase in  the average prices of oil and  natural gas
     sold during the three months ended March  31, 1996 as compared to
     the  three months  ended  March 31,  1995.   Volumes  of oil  and
     natural sold increased by 16 barrels and 1,320 Mcf, respectively,
     for the  three months  ended March  31, 1996 as  compared to  the
     three  months ended March 31, 1995.   Average oil and natural gas
     prices increased to  $17.99 per barrel and $1.84 per  Mcf for the
     three  months ended  March 31,  1996 from  $16.71 per  barrel and
     $1.23 per Mcf for the three months ended March 31, 1995.  

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses  and production  taxes) decreased  $5,319 for  the three
     months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the three months ended
     March  31, 1995.    This decrease  was  primarily  due to  (i)  a

                                  -7-

     decrease  in litigation  expenses  directly related  to one  well
     during the three months ending March 31, 1996 and (ii) a decrease
     in  expenses related to special  surveys and testing  on the same
     well  during the  three  months  ending March  31,  1996.   As  a
     percentage  of oil  and gas  sales, these  expenses decreased  to
     20.2% for  the three months  ended March 31, 1996  from 38.2% for
     the  three months ended March 31, 1995.  This percentage decrease
     was primarily a result of  the increase in the average  prices of
     oil and natural gas  sold during the three months ended March 31,
     1996 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1995.

     Depreciation,  depletion,  and  amortization   of  oil  and   gas
     properties decreased $9,059  for the three months ended March 31,
     1996 as compared to the three  months ended March 31, 1995.  This
     decrease  was primarily the result  of 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 21.7%  for the three months ended  March 31,
     1996 from 45.7% for the three months ended March 31,  1995.  This
     percentage  decrease was primarily due to  the upward revision in
     the estimate  of remaining  reserves as discussed  above and  the
     increase in the average prices of oil and natural gas sold during
     the three months  ended March 31,  1996 as compared to  the three
     months ended March 31, 1995.

     As a  result of declines in  natural gas prices during  the first
     quarter of 1995, the Program recognized a non-cash charge against
     earnings  of  $122,684 during  the three  months ended  March 31,
     1995.   This valuation allowance  for oil and  gas properties was
     necessary  due to the unamortized costs of oil and gas properties
     exceeding the present value  of the future net revenues  from the
     oil  and gas  properties.   No  similar  allowance was  necessary
     during the three months ended March 31, 1996.

     General and administrative  expenses remained relatively constant
     during the three months ended March  31, 1996 as compared to  the
     three months  ended March 31, 1995.   As a percentage  of oil and
     gas sales, these expenses decreased to 18.8% for the three months
     ended March 31, 1996 from 28.8% for the three  months ended March
     31, 1995.  This  percentage decrease was primarily the  result of
     the increase  in the average prices  of oil and  natural gas sold
     during  the three months ended March 31,  1996 as compared to the
     three months ended March 31, 1995.
