             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash  provided by  operating  activities  totaled  $331,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998, and $375,000 was  distributed to partners.  A distribution
payable to partners  of record as of March 31, 1998 was  declared in April 1998.
The  distribution   amount  is  $283,000,   payable  $187,063  to  May  Drilling
Partnership  1984-3  partners  and  $95,937  to  the  general  partner.   Future
distributions  are dependent on future prices for the  Partnership's  production
and the production level of the Partnership's remaining oil and gas reserves.

Results of Operations

First Quarter 1998 Compared to First Quarter 1997

Oil Revenue

Oil revenues  decreased  $105,000 in the first  quarter of 1998 as compared with
the first quarter of 1997 as a result of a decrease in production and a decrease
in the average oil price.  Oil  production  decreased 35% on the Freddie Aker #1
due to increased  rates of water  production on the well.  The average oil price
decreased from $22.68 per barrel in 1997 to $14.63 per barrel in 1998.

Gas Revenue

Gas revenue  decreased  $139,000 during the first quarter of 1998 as compared to
the first quarter of 1997 due to a decrease in production  and a decrease in the
average gas price. The average gas price decreased from $3.45 per mcf in 1997 to
$2.59 per mcf in 1998. Gas  production  decreased 30% on the Freddie Aker #1 due
to increased rates of water production on the well.

Lease Operating

Lease  operating  expense  decreased  $5,000 during the first quarter of 1998 as
compared to the first quarter of 1997 due to decreased  maintenance  activity on
the Freddie Aker #1.

Production Taxes

Production taxes decreased  $14,000 during the first quarter of 1998 as compared
to the first quarter of 1997 due to decreased production previously discussed.
