                              (Unaudited)


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

   The  balance  sheet  as  of  September  30,  1995,   statements  of
   operations for the three  and nine months ended September  30, 1995
   and  1994, and statements of  cash flows for  the nine months ended
   September  30, 1995 and 1994  have been prepared  by Dyco Petroleum
   Corporation ("Dyco"), the General  Partner of the Dyco Oil  and Gas
   Program 1985-1  and 1985-2 Limited Partnerships  (individually, the
   "1985-1  Program" or the "1985-2 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
   September  30, 1995, results of  operations for the  three and nine
   months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 and  changes in cash flows
   for the nine  months ended September  30, 1995 and  1994 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, 1994.  The results of operations for the period ended September
   30,  1995 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 September 30, 1995, the unamortized cost of oil and gas
   properties  exceeded the full cost ceiling by $45,262 on the 1985-1
   Program.  This  excess was charged to expense  during the three and
   nine  months ended September 30,  1995.  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.

                                 -10-
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
   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  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
   September  30,  1995  and 1994  the  1985-1  Program  incurred such
   expenses  totaling  $11,963  and  $12,408, respectively,  of  which
   $10,710 and  $10,710 were  paid to  Dyco.  During  the nine  months
   ended  September 30, 1995 and 1994 the 1985-1 Program incurred such
   expenses  totaling  $43,454  and $39,846,  respectively,  of  which
   $32,130  and $32,130 were  paid to Dyco.   During  the three months
   ended  September 30, 1995 and 1994 the 1985-2 Program incurred such
   expenses totaling  $11,381  and  $11,821,  respectively,  of  which
   $10,068  and $10,068  were paid  to Dyco.   During the  nine months
   ended  September 30, 1995 and 1994 the 1985-2 Program incurred such
   expenses  totaling  $42,519  and  $38,184,  respectively, of  which
   $30,204 and $30,204 were paid to Dyco.  

   Affiliates  of  the Program  are the  operators  of certain  of the
   Programs' properties and their  policy is to bill the  Programs for
   all customary charges and cost reimbursements associated with their
   activities, together  with any  compressor rentals, consulting,  or
   other services provided.

   The  Programs  sell gas  at market  prices  to Premier  Gas Company
   ("Premier"),  an affiliated  company, and  Premier may  then resell
   such  gas  to third  parties at  market prices.   During  the three
   months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 these sales for the 1985-1
   Program totaled $52,305 and $67,579, respectively.  During the nine
   months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 these sales for the 1985-1
   Program totaled $176,286 and  $273,536, respectively.  At September
   30, 1995 accrued oil and gas  sales for the 1985-1 Program included
   $36,335  due from Premier.  During the three months ended September
   30,  1995 and  1994  these sales  for  the 1985-2  Program  totaled
   $16,127 and $20,500,  respectively.  During  the nine months  ended
   September  30, 1995  and 1994  these sales  for the  1985-2 Program
   totaled $54,295 and  $71,074, respectively.  At September  30, 1995
   accrued oil and gas  sales for the 1985-2 Program  included $11,183
   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   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.   Over  the last  several  years, the
     domestic  energy industry  and the  Programs 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 Programs' 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
     Programs  have no bank  debt commitments.   Cash  for operational
     purposes will be provided by current oil and gas production.

     As  shown in the table above, oil and natural gas sales decreased
     7.2% for the three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to
     the three  months  ended  September  30,  1994.    This  decrease
     resulted  from the decrease in both the volumes and average price
     of  natural  gas sold,  partially offset  by  an increase  in the
     volumes and average  price of  oil sold during  the three  months
     ended  September 30, 1995 as  compared to the  three months ended
     September  30,  1994.   Volumes  of  natural  gas  sold decreased
     slightly  by 2,481 Mcf for  the three months  ended September 30,
     1995  as compared to the  three months ended  September 30, 1994,
     while volumes of oil  sold increased 505 barrels for  the similar
     period  of comparison.  The  increase in the  volumes of oil sold
     resulted primarily from significant  positive prior period volume
     adjustments from a purchaser on one of the 1985-1 Program's wells
     during  the  three  months  ended September  30,  1995.   Average
     natural  gas  prices decreased  to $1.23  per  Mcf for  the three

     months ended September 30, 1995 from $1.47 per Mcf for  the three
     months  ended  September  30,  1994,  while  average  oil  prices
     increased to  $17.30  per  barrel  for  the  three  months  ended
     September  30, 1995 from $15.67  per barrel for  the three months
     ended September 30, 1994.

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses  and production  taxes) increased  $5,877 for  the three
     months ended September 30,  1995 as compared to the  three months
     ended  September  30,  1994.    This increase  resulted  from  an
     increase in  general repair  and maintenance expenses  during the
     three  months ended September 30,  1995 as compared  to the three
     months ended September 30, 1994.  As a percentage of  oil and gas
     sales, these  expenses increased  to 47.3%  for the  three months
     ended  September 30, 1995 from  37.2% for the  three months ended
     September 30,  1994.  This percentage increase  was primarily due
     to  the decrease in the average  price of natural gas sold during
     the  three months  ended September  30, 1995  as compared  to the
     three months ended September 30, 1994.

     Depreciation,  depletion,   and  amortization  of  oil   and  gas
     properties increased $2,472 for  the three months ended September
     30,  1995 as  compared to  the three  months ended  September 30,
     1994.  This increase was primarily a result of (i) an increase in
     the volumes of oil  sold during the three months  ended September
     30, 1995 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1994
     and  (ii) the  increase  in oil  and  gas properties  subject  to
     amortization  as a  result  of recent  recompletion and  workover
     activities on an existing  well in order to improve  the recovery
     of future reserves.  As  a percentage of oil and gas  sales, this
     expense  increased to 30.4% for  the three months ended September
     30, 1995 compared to  25.3% for the three months  ended September
     30, 1994.  This percentage  increase resulted primarily from  the
     decrease  in the  average price  of natural  gas sold  during the
     three  months ended September 30,  1995 as compared  to the three
     months ended September 30, 1994.

     As a result of recent declines in  natural gas prices, the 1985-1
     Program  has recognized  a  non-cash charge  against earnings  of
     $45,262 during the three  months ended September 30, 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 September 30, 1994.

     General and  administrative expenses  decreased slightly by  $445
     for the three months ended September  30, 1995 as compared to the
     three months ended  September 30, 1994.   As a percentage of  oil
     and  gas sales,  these expenses  remained relatively  constant at
     15.0% for the three  months ended September 30, 1995  compared to
     14.4% for the three months ended September 30, 1994.

     As shown in the table, oil and  natural gas sales decreased 26.6%
     for  the nine months ended September  30, 1995 as compared to the
     nine months  ended September  30, 1994.   This  decrease resulted
     from the  decrease in volumes of  oil and natural gas  sold and a
     decrease  in the  average  price of  natural gas  sold, partially
     offset by an increase in the average price of oil sold during the
     nine  months ended  September 30,  1995 as  compared to  the nine
     months ended September 30, 1994.  Volumes of oil and  natural gas
     sold decreased 438 barrels and 22,659 Mcf,  respectively, for the
     nine  months ended  September 30,  1995 as  compared to  the nine
     months ended September 30, 1994.   The decrease in the volumes of
     oil sold resulted  from positive prior period  adjustments on one
     well  during the  nine  months ended  September  30, 1994.    The
     decrease  in  the volumes  of natural  gas  sold was  primarily a
     result of  a clerical error made  by a purchaser in  a prior year
     which  was recouped by the purchaser during the nine months ended
     September 30, 1995.   Average oil prices increased to  $18.88 per
     barrel for the nine  months ended September 30, 1995  from $16.78
     per  barrel for the nine  months ended September  30, 1994, while
     natural gas prices decreased  to an average of $1.29  per Mcf for
     the nine months ended September 30, 1995 from an average of $1.75
     per Mcf for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses  and production  taxes)  increased $5,033  for the  nine
     months  ended September 30, 1995  as compared to  the nine months
     ended September 30, 1994.  This increase  resulted primarily from
     an increase in general repair and maintenance expenses during the
     nine  months ended  September 30,  1995 as  compared to  the nine
     months ended  September 30, 1994.  As a percentage of oil and gas
     sales,  these  expenses increased  to 36.7%  for the  nine months
     ended September 30,  1995 from  25.8% for the  nine months  ended
     September 30, 1994.   This percentage increase was  primarily due
     to the decrease in  the average price of natural gas  sold during
     the nine months ended September 30, 1995 as compared  to the nine
     months ended September 30, 1994.

     Depreciation,  depletion,   and  amortization  of   oil  and  gas
     properties decreased $23,580 for  the nine months ended September
     30, 1995 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1994.
     This  decrease was  primarily a  result of  the decreases  in the
     volumes of oil and natural gas sold  during the nine months ended
     September 30, 1995 as compared to the nine months ended September
     30, 1994.   As a percentage  of oil and  gas sales, this  expense
     increased to 29.4% for  the nine months ended September  30, 1995
     from 27.1% for the  nine months ended September  30, 1994.   This
     percentage  increase  was primarily  due to  the decrease  in the
     average  price of natural gas  sold during the  nine months ended
     September 30, 1995 as compared to the nine months ended September
     30, 1994.

     As a result of recent declines  in natural gas prices, the 1985-1
     Program  has recognized  a  non-cash charge  against earnings  of
     $45,262  during the nine months  ended September 30,  1995.  This

     General and administrative expenses increased $3,608 for the nine
     months  ended September 30, 1995  as compared to  the nine months
     ended  September  30,  1994.     This  dollar  increase  resulted
     primarily from  an increase in the  1985-1 Program's professional
     fees  during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 as compared
     to the nine months ended September  30, 1994.  As a percentage of
     oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to 13.9% for the nine
     months ended September  30, 1995  from 9.4% for  the nine  months
     ended September 30, 1994.  This percentage increase was primarily
     due to the dollar increase in general and administrative expenses
     as  discussed  above and  the decrease  in  the average  price of
     natural  gas sold during the nine months ended September 30, 1995
     as compared to the similar period in 1994.

     ended  September 30, 1995 as  compared to the  three months ended
     September 30, 1994, while volumes of oil sold remained relatively
     constant for the similar  period of comparison.  The  increase in
     volumes  of natural gas sold  was primarily a  result of positive
     prior  period volume  adjustments from  a purchaser  on one  well
     during  the three months ended  September 30, 1995.   Average oil
     prices  increased to $17.31 per barrel for the three months ended
     September  30, 1995 from $16.90  per barrel for  the three months
     ended  September  30,  1994,  while average  natural  gas  prices

     30, 1995 from $1.51 per Mcf for the  three months ended September
     30, 1994.

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses  and production  taxes) increased  $3,439 for  the three
     months ended September 30,  1995 as compared to the  three months
     ended  September 30,  1994.    This  increase  resulted  from  an
     increase in  general repair  and maintenance expenses  during the
     three  months ended September 30,  1995 as compared  to the three
     months ended September 30, 1994.   As a percentage of oil and gas
     sales, these  expenses decreased  to 45.3% for  the three  months
     ended  September 30, 1995 from  47.6% for the  three months ended
     September 30, 1994.   This percentage decrease  was primarily due
     to the increase  in the  volumes of natural  gas sold,  partially
     offset by the decrease in the  average price of natural gas  sold
     during the three months  ended September 30, 1995 as  compared to
     the three months ended September 30, 1994.

     Depreciation,  depletion,   and  amortization  of   oil  and  gas
     properties increased $11,438 for the three months ended September
     30,  1995 as  compared to  the three  months ended  September 30,
     1994.  This increase was primarily  the result of the increase in
     the volumes of  natural gas  sold during the  three months  ended
     September  30,  1995  as  compared  to  the  three  months  ended
     September 30, 1994.   As a percentage of oil  and gas sales, this

     As shown in the table, oil  and natural gas sales decreased 34.7%
     for the nine months  ended September 30, 1995 as compared  to the
     nine months ended September 30, 1994.  The decrease resulted from
     the decreases  in the volumes of oil and natural gas sold and the
     decrease  in  the average  price of  natural gas  sold, partially
     offset by an increase in the average price of oil sold during the
     nine  months ended  September 30,  1995 as  compared to  the nine
     months ended September 30, 1994.  Volumes of  oil and natural gas
     sold decreased  1,059 barrels  and 20,901 Mcf,  respectively, for
     the  nine months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the nine
     months  ended September  30, 1994.   The  decrease in  volumes of
     natural gas  sold was  primarily a  result  of revenues  received
     which were associated with  a gas balancing adjustment on  one of
     the 1985-2 Program's wells during the nine months ended September
     30, 1994.  Average oil prices increased to $17.52 per barrel  for
     the nine months ended  September 30, 1995 from $15.67  per barrel
     for  the  nine months  ended  September 30,  1994,  while average

     months  ended September 30, 1995  as compared to  the nine months
     ended  September 30, 1994.  This decrease resulted primarily from
     the decrease in the  volumes of oil  and natural gas sold  during
     the nine months ended September 30, 1995.  As a percentage of oil
     and gas sales,  these expenses  increased to 46.4%  for the  nine
     months  ended September 30, 1995 from 39.8% for nine months ended
     September 30, 1994.   This percentage increase was primarily  due
     to the  decrease in the average price  of natural gas sold during
     the  nine months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the nine
     months ended September 30, 1994.

     Depreciation,  depletion,   and  amortization  of  oil   and  gas
     properties decreased $19,782 for  the nine months ended September
     30, 1995 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1994.
     This  decrease  was primarily  a result  of  the decrease  in the
     volumes of oil and  natural gas sold during the nine months ended
     September 30, 1995 as compared to the nine months ended September
     30, 1994.   As a percentage  of oil and  gas sales, this  expense

     months  ended September 30, 1995  as compared to  the nine months
     ended  September  30,  1994.     This  dollar  increase  resulted
     primarily from  an increase in the  1985-2 Program's professional
     fees  during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 as compared
     to the nine months ended September 30, 1994.  As  a percentage of
     oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to 20.3% for the nine
     months  ended September 30, 1995  from 11.9% for  the nine months
     ended September 30, 1994.  This percentage increase was primarily
     due to the dollar increase in general and administrative expenses
     as discussed above  and the decreases  in the volumes of  oil and
     natural gas sold and  a decrease in the average  price of natural
     gas  sold  during the  nine months  ended  September 30,  1995 as
     compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1994.
