PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
The Dyco Oil and Gas Program 1986-2 Limited Partnership (the
"Program") is a Minnesota limited partnership engaged in the
production of oil and gas. The Program commenced operations on
July 1, 1986 with the primary financial objective of investing its
limited partners' subscriptions in the drilling of oil and gas
prospects and then distributing to its limited partners all available
cash flow from the Program's on-going production operations. Dyco
Petroleum Corporation ("Dyco") serves as the General Partner of the
Program. See "Item 2. Properties" for a description of the Program's
properties and reserves.
The limited partnership agreement for the Program provides that
limited partners are allocated 99% of all Program costs and revenues
and that Dyco, as General Partner, is allocated 1% of all Program
costs and revenues. Included in such costs is the Program's
reimbursement to Dyco of the Program's proportionate share of Dyco's
geological, engineering, and general and administrative expenses.
Dyco serves as General Partner of 34 limited partnerships,
including the Program. Dyco is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Samson
Natural Gas Company, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Samson
Investment Company. Samson Investment Company and its various
corporate subsidiaries, including Dyco, (collectively, the "Samson
Companies") are engaged in the production and development of and
exploration for oil and gas reserves and the acquisition and operation
of producing properties. At December 31, 1995, the Samson Companies
owned interests in approximately 18,000 oil and gas wells located in
19 states of the U.S. and 3 provinces of Canada. At December 31,
1995, the Samson Companies operated approximately 3,100 oil and gas
wells located in 15 states of the U.S., 2 provinces of Canada,
Venezuela, and Russia.
As a limited partnership, the Program has no officers, directors,
or employees. It relies instead on the personnel of Dyco and the
other Samson Companies. As of February 1, 1996, the Samson Companies
employed approximately 830 persons. No employees are covered by
collective bargaining agreements, and management believes that the
Samson Companies provide a sound employee relations environment. For
information regarding the executive officers of Dyco, see "Item
10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant."

Dyco's and the Program's principal place of business is located
at Samson Plaza, Two West Second Street, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74103, and
their telephone number is (918) 583-1791 or (800) 535-1791.
Funding
Although the Program's partnership agreement permits the Program
to incur borrowings, the Program's operations and expenses are
currently funded out of the Program's revenues from oil and gas sales.
Dyco may, but is not required to, advance funds to the Program for the
same purposes for which Program borrowings are authorized.
Principal Products Produced and Services Rendered
The Program's sole business is the development and production of
oil and natural gas with a concentration on natural gas. The Program
does not hold any patents, trademarks, licenses, or concessions and is
not a party to any government contracts. The Program has no backlog
of orders and does not participate in research and development
activities. The Program is not presently encountering shortages of
oilfield tubular goods, compressors, production material, or other
equipment.
Oil, Gas, and Environmental Control Regulations
Regulation of Production Operations -- The production of oil and
gas is subject to extensive federal and state laws and regulations
governing a wide variety of matters, including the drilling and
spacing of wells, allowable rates of production, prevention of waste
and pollution, and protection of the environment. In addition to the
direct costs borne in complying with such regulations, operations and
revenues may be impacted to the extent that certain regulations limit
oil and gas production to below economic levels.
Regulation of Sales and Transportation of Oil and Natural Gas --
Sales of crude oil and condensate are made by the Program at market
prices and are not subject to price controls. The sale of natural gas
may be subject to both federal and state laws and regulations,
including, but not limited to, the Natural Gas Act of 1938 (the
"NGA"), the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (the "NGPA"), and
regulations promulgated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(the "FERC") under the NGA, the NGPA, and other statutes. The
provisions of the NGA and the NGPA, as well as the regulations
thereunder, are complex and affect all who produce, resell, transport,
or purchase natural gas, including the Program. Although virtually
all of the Program's gas production is not subject to price
2
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
regulation, the NGA, NGPA, and FERC regulations affect the
availability of gas transportation services and the ability of gas
consumers to continue to purchase or use gas at current levels.
Accordingly, such regulations may have a material effect on the
Program's operations and projections of future oil and gas production
and revenues.
Future Legislation -- Legislation affecting the oil and gas
industry is under constant review for amendment or expansion. Because
such laws and regulations are frequently amended or reinterpreted,
management is unable to predict what additional energy legislation may
be proposed or enacted or the future cost and impact of complying with
existing or future regulations.
Regulation of the Environment -- The Program's operations are
subject to numerous laws and regulations governing the discharge of
materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental
protection. Compliance with such laws and regulations, together with
any penalties resulting from noncompliance therewith, may increase the
cost of the Program's operations or may affect the Program's ability
to complete, in a timely fashion, existing or future activities.
Management anticipates that various local, state, and federal
environmental control agencies will have an increasing impact on oil
and gas operations.
Significant Customers
Purchases of gas by Premier Gas Company ("Premier"), accounted
for approximately 66.2% of the Program's oil and gas revenues during
the year ended December 31, 1995. Premier was an affiliate of Dyco
until December 6, 1995. See "Item 11. Executive Compensation." In
the event of interruption of purchases by this significant customer or
the cessation or material change in availability of open-access
transportation by the Program's pipeline transporters, the Program may
encounter difficulty in marketing its gas and in maintaining historic
sales levels. Alternative purchasers or transporters may not be
readily available.
The Program's principal customers for crude oil production are
refiners and other companies which have pipeline facilities near the
producing properties of the Program. Purchases of oil by Flying J Oil
and Gas, Inc. accounted for approximately 31.0% of the Program's oil
and gas revenues during the year ended December 31, 1995. In the
event pipeline facilities are not conveniently available to production
areas, crude oil is usually trucked by purchasers to storage
facilities.

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Competition and Marketing
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive, with a large
number of companies and individuals engaged in the exploration and
development of oil and gas properties. The ability of the Program to
produce and market oil and gas profitably depends on a number of
factors that are beyond the control of the Program. These factors
include worldwide political instability (especially in oil-producing
regions), the supply and price of foreign imports of oil and gas, the
level of consumer product demand (which is heavily influenced by
weather patterns), government regulations and taxes, the price and
availability of alternative fuels, the overall economic environment,
and the availability and capacity of transportation and processing
facilities. The effect of these factors cannot be accurately
predicted or anticipated.
As a general rule, in recent years, worldwide oil production
capacity and gas production capacity in certain areas of the United
States exceeded demand and resulted in a decline in the average price
of oil and gas in the United States. During the later part of 1994
and 1995, however, average oil prices in the United States increased.
Oil prices increased from approximately $16.50 per barrel at Decem-
ber 31, 1994 to approximately $18.50 per barrel at December 31, 1995.
Management is unable to predict whether future oil prices will
(i) stabilize, (ii) increase, or (iii) decrease.
Gas sales contract prices have generally declined significantly
since the mid-1980s due to a number of factors, including a nationwide
surplus of gas and increased competition. Competition has increased
among United States gas marketers due to the gas surplus, the partial
deregulation of gas prices, the conversion by major pipelines to open
access transportation, and the lack of strong residential demand for
natural gas during the winter months for the last few years as a
result of warm winters in much of the United States. However, spot
gas prices in the areas where the Program's gas is marketed increased
during the later part of 1995 compared to prices received in the later
part of 1994 and the first several months of 1995.
Substantially all of the Program's natural gas reserves are being
sold in the "spot market." Due to the highly competitive nature of
the spot market, prices on the spot market are subject to wide
seasonal and regional pricing fluctuations. In addition, such spot
market sales are generally short-term in nature and are dependent upon
the obtaining of transportation services provided by pipelines.
4
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
The Program's spot gas prices increased from approximately $1.67
per Mcf at December 31, 1994 to approximately $2.00 per Mcf at
December 31, 1995. Such prices were on an MMBTU basis and differ from
the prices actually received by the Program due to transportation and
marketing costs, BTU adjustments, and regional price and quality
differences. Future prices will likely be different from (and may be
lower than) the prices in effect on December 31, 1995. In many past
years, year-end prices have tended to be higher, and in some cases
significantly higher, than the yearly average price actually received
by the Program for at least the year following the year-end valuation
date. Management is unable to predict whether future gas prices will
(i) stabilize, (ii) increase, or (iii) decrease.
Insurance Coverage
The Program is subject to all of the risks inherent in the
exploration for and production of oil and gas, including blowouts,
pollution, fires, and other casualties. The Program maintains
insurance coverage as is customary for entities of a similar size
engaged in operations similar to that of the Program, but losses can
occur from uninsurable risks or in amounts in excess of existing
insurance coverage. The occurrence of an event which is not fully
covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the
Program's financial position and results of operations.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Well Statistics

(1) The designation of a well as an oil well or gas well is made by
Dyco based on the relative amount of oil and gas reserves for the
well. Regardless of a well's oil or gas designation, it may
produce oil, gas, or both oil and gas.
(2) As used throughout this Annual Report, "Gross Well" refers to a
well in which a working interest is owned. The number of gross
wells is the total number of wells in which a working interest is
owned.
(3) As used throughout this Annual Report, "Net Well" refers to the
sum of the fractional working interests owned in gross wells
expressed as whole numbers and fractions thereof. For example, a
15% leasehold interest in a well represents one Gross Well, but
0.15 Net Well.
Drilling Activities
The Program participated in no drilling activities for the year
ended December 31, 1995.
Oil and Gas Production, Revenue, and Price History
The following table sets forth certain historical information
concerning the oil (including condensates) and natural gas production,
net of all royalties, overriding royalties, and other third party
interests, of the Program, revenues attributable to such production,
and certain price and cost information.

(1) As used throughout this Annual Report, "Bbls" refers to barrels
of 42 U.S. gallons and represents the basic unit for measuring
the production of crude oil and condensate oil.
(2) As used throughout this Annual Report, "Mcf" refers to volume of
1,000 cubic feet under prescribed conditions of pressure and
temperature and represents the basic unit for measuring the
production of natural gas.
(3) Oil production is converted to gas equivalents at the rate of six
Mcf per barrel, representing the estimated relative energy
content of gas and oil, which rate is not necessarily indicative
of the relationship of oil and gas prices. The respective prices
of oil and gas are affected by market and other factors in
addition to relative energy content.
Proved Reserves and Net Present Value
The following table sets forth the Program's estimated proved oil
and gas reserves and net present value therefrom as of December 31,
1995. The schedule of quantities of proved oil and gas reserves was
prepared by Dyco in accordance with the rules prescribed by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). As used throughout
this Annual Report, "proved reserves" refers to those estimated
quantities of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids which
geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty
to be recoverable in future years from known oil and gas reservoirs
under existing economic and operating conditions.
7
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Net present value represents estimated future gross cash flow
from the production and sale of proved reserves, net of estimated oil
and gas production costs (including production taxes, ad valorem
taxes, and operating expenses), and estimated future development costs
discounted at 10% per annum. Net present value attributable to the
Program's proved reserves was calculated on the basis of current costs
and prices at December 31, 1995. Such prices were not escalated
except in certain circumstances where escalations were fixed and
readily determinable in accordance with applicable contract
provisions. The prices used by Dyco in calculating the net present
value attributable to the Program's proved reserves do not necessarily
reflect market prices for oil and gas production subsequent to
December 31, 1995. Furthermore, gas prices at December 31, 1995 were
higher than the price used for determining the Program's net present
value of proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 1994. There
can be no assurance that the prices used in calculating the net
present value of the Program's proved reserves at December 31, 1995
will actually be realized for such production.
The process of estimating oil and gas reserves is complex,
requiring significant subjective decisions in the evaluation of
available geological, engineering, and economic data for each
reservoir. The data for a given reservoir may change substantially
over time as a result of, among other things, additional development
activity, production history, and viability of production under
varying economic conditions; consequently, it is reasonably possible
that material revisions to existing reserve estimates may occur in the
near future. Although every reasonable effort has been made to ensure
that the reserve estimates reported herein represent the most accurate
assessment possible, the significance of the subjective decisions
required and variances in available data for various reservoirs make
these estimates generally less precise than other estimates presented
in connection with financial statement disclosures.

As of December 31, 1995
Estimated proved reserves:

No estimates of the proved reserves of the Program comparable to
those included herein have been included in reports to any federal
agency other than the SEC. Additional information relating to the
Program's proved reserves is contained in Note 4 to the Program's
financial statements, included in Item 8 of this Annual Report.
Significant Properties
As of December 31, 1995, the Program's properties consisted of 7
gross (1.51 net) productive wells in which the Program owned a working
interest. The Program owned a non-working interest in one additional
gross well. Affiliates of the Program operate 4 (50%) of its total
wells. As of December 31, 1995, the Program's net interests in its
properties resulted in estimated total proved reserves of 800,979 Mcf
of natural gas and 29,903 barrels of oil, with a present value
(discounted at 10% per annum) of estimated future net cash flow of
$857,901. A substantial majority of the Program's reserves is located
in the Anadarko Basin of Western Oklahoma and the Texas panhandle,
which is an established oil and gas producing basin. All of the
Program's properties are located onshore in the continental United
States.
As of December 31, 1995, the Program's properties in the Anadarko
Basin consisted of 6 gross (1.26 net) total wells. Affiliates of the
Program operate 4 (67%) of such wells. As of December 31, 1995, the
Program's net interest in such wells resulted in estimated total
proved reserves of approximately 783,995 Mcf of natural gas and
approximately 138 barrels of crude oil, with a present value
(discounted at 10% per annum) of estimated future net cash flow of
approximately $684,314.
Title to Oil and Gas Properties
Management believes that the Program has satisfactory title to
its oil and gas properties. Record title to substantially all of the
Program's properties is held by Dyco as nominee.
Title to the Program's properties is subject to customary
royalty, overriding royalty, carried, working, and other similar
interests and contractual arrangements customary in the oil and gas
industry, to liens for current taxes not yet due, and to other
encumbrances. Management believes that such burdens do not materially
detract from the value of such properties or from the Program's
interest therein or materially interfere with their use in the
operation of the Program's business.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
To the knowledge of the management of Dyco and the Program,
neither Dyco, the Program, nor the Program's properties are subject to
any litigation, the results of which would have a material effect on
the Program's or Dyco's financial condition or operations.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF LIMITED PARTNERS
There were no matters submitted to a vote of the limited partners
of the Program during 1995.
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNITS AND
RELATED LIMITED PARTNER MATTERS
The Program does not have an established trading market for its
units of limited partnership interest ("Units"). Pursuant to the
terms of the Program's limited partnership agreement, Dyco, as General
Partner, is obligated to annually offer a repurchase offer which is
based on the estimated future net revenues from the Program's reserves
and is calculated pursuant to the terms of the limited partnership
agreement. Such repurchase offer is recalculated monthly in order to
reflect cash distributions made to the limited partners and other
extraordinary events. The following table sets forth, for the periods
indicated, Dyco's repurchase offer per Unit and the amount of the
Program's cash distributions per Unit for the same period. For
purposes of this Annual Report, a Unit represents an initial
subscription of $5,000 to a Program.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
General
-------
The following general discussion should be read in conjunction
with the analysis of results of operations provided below. In
management's view, it is not possible to predict accurately either the
short-term or long-term prices for oil or gas. Specifically, due to
the oversupply of natural gas in recent years, certain of the
Program's gas producing properties have suffered, and continue to
suffer during portions of the year, production curtailments and
seasonal reductions in the prices paid by purchasers. Additional
curtailments and seasonal or regional price reductions will adversely
affect the operations and financial condition of the Program. Gas
sales prices, which have generally declined significantly since the
mid-1980s, increased during the fourth quarter of 1995. See "Item 1.
Business - Competition and Marketing." Actual future prices received
by the Program will likely be different from (and may be lower than)
the prices in effect on December 31, 1995. In many past years, year-
end prices have tended to be higher, and in some cases significantly
higher, than the yearly average price actually received by the Program
for at least the year following the year-end valuation date.
Management is unable to predict whether future gas prices will (i)
stabilize, (ii) increase, or (iii) decrease. The amount of the
Program's cash flow, however, is dependent on such future gas prices.
Year Ended December 31, 1995 Compared
to Year Ended December 31, 1994
-------------------------------------
Total oil and gas sales decreased 21.8% for the year ended
December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994.
This decrease was primarily due to decreases in both the volumes and
average price of natural gas sold, partially offset by increases in
both the volumes and average price of oil sold. Volumes of oil sold
increased 351 barrels, while volumes of natural gas sold decreased
34,750 Mcf for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1994. The decrease in volumes of natural gas
sold was primarily due to positive prior period volume adjustments
during 1994 and normal declines in production. Average natural gas
prices decreased to $1.28 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 1995
from $1.55 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 1994, while average
oil prices increased to $18.90 per barrel for the year ended
December 31, 1995 from $17.63 per barrel for the year ended Decem-
ber 31, 1994.

<PAGE>
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating
expenses and production taxes) decreased 3.6% for the year ended
December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994.
This decrease was primarily due to the decreases in both the volumes
and average price of natural gas sold, partially offset by (i) surface
repair and maintenance expenses incurred on a few wells to improve
recovery of reserves and (ii) the fixed nature of a portion of oil and
gas production expenses. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these
expenses increased to 37.3% for the year ended December 31, 1995 from
30.2% for the year ended December 31, 1994. This percentage increase
was primarily due to the decrease in oil and gas sales discussed
above.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas
properties decreased $36,619 for the year ended December 31, 1995 as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1994. This decrease was
primarily due to the decrease in the volumes of natural gas sold and
upward revisions of previous reserve estimates. As a percentage of
oil and gas sales, this expense decreased to 13.5% for the year ended
December 31, 1995 from 20.2% for the year ended December 31, 1994.
This percentage decrease was primarily due to the dollar decrease in
depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties,
partially offset by the decrease in oil and gas sales.
General and administrative expenses increased $1,208 for the year
ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31,
1994 primarily due to an increase in both professional fees and
printing and postage expenses. As a percentage of oil and gas sales,
these expenses increased to 11.9% for the year ended December 31, 1995
from 9.0% for the year ended December 31, 1994. This percentage
increase was primarily due to the decrease in oil and gas sales.
Year Ended December 31, 1994 Compared
to Year Ended December 31, 1993
-------------------------------------
Total oil and gas sales decreased 10.0% for the year ended Decem-
ber 31, 1994 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1993. This
decrease was due primarily to a decrease in volumes of natural gas
sold and decreases in the average prices of oil and natural gas sold,
partially offset by an increase in volumes of oil sold. Volumes of
oil sold increased 1,409 barrels for the year ended December 31, 1994
as compared to the year ended December 31, 1993, while volumes of
natural gas sold decreased 10,733 Mcf for the year ended December 31,
1994 as compared to the similar period in 1993. The increase in
volumes of oil sold was primarily a result of positive prior period
volume adjustments from a purchaser on one well during the year ended
December 31, 1994. The decrease in volumes of natural gas sold was
primarily due to the normal decline in production of natural gas.
14
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Average oil and natural gas prices decreased to $17.63 per barrel and
$1.55 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 1994 from averages of
$19.48 per barrel and $1.77 per Mcf for the year ended December 31,
1993.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating
expenses and production taxes) increased slightly by 1.7% for the year
ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the year ended December 31,
1993. This increase was primarily due to workover charges on two
wells during the year ended December 31, 1994 with no similar charge
during the same period in 1993. As a percentage of oil and gas sales,
these expenses increased to 30.2% for the year ended December 31, 1994
from 26.8% for the year ended December 31, 1993. This percentage
increase was primarily a result of the decrease in the average prices
of oil and natural gas sold.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas
properties decreased $41,863 for the year ended December 31, 1994 as
compared to the year ended December 31, 1993. This decrease was
primarily a result of significant upward revisions in the estimate of
remaining oil and natural gas reserves during 1994. As a percentage
of oil and gas sales, this expense decreased to 20.2% for the year
ended December 31, 1994 from 28.1% for the year ended December 31,
1993. This percentage decrease was primarily a result of the upward
reserve revisions discussed above, partially offset by the decreases
in the average prices of oil and natural gas sold.
General and administrative expenses decreased $4,824 for the year
ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the year ended December 31,
1993. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in professional
fees during the year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the
similar period in 1993. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these
expenses remained relatively constant at 9.0% for the year ended
December 31, 1994 compared to 9.2% for the year ended December 31,
1993.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net proceeds from operations less necessary operating capital are
distributed to the limited partners on a quarterly basis. See "Item
5. Market for the Registrant's Limited Partnership Units and Related
Limited Partner Matters." 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 reserves, thereby resulting in a positive
economic impact. Assuming production levels for the year ended
December 31, 1995, the Program's proved reserve quantities at
December 31, 1995 would have a life of approximately 5.1 years for gas
reserves and 5.9 years for oil reserves.
15
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
The Program's available capital from the limited partners'
subscriptions has been spent on oil and gas drilling activities and
there should be no further material capital resource commitments in
the future. The Program has no debt commitments. Cash for
operational purposes will be provided by current oil and gas
production.
There can be no assurance as to the amount of the Program's
future cash distributions. The Program's ability to make cash
distributions depends primarily upon the level of available cash flow
generated by the Program's operating activities, which will be
affected (either positively or negatively) by many factors beyond the
control of the Program, including the price of and demand for oil and
natural gas, and other market and economic conditions. Even if prices
and costs remain stable, the amount of cash available for
distributions will decline over time (as the volume of production from
producing properties declines) since the Program is not replacing
production through acquisitions of producing properties and drilling.
Inflation and Changing Prices
Prices obtained for oil and gas production depend upon numerous
factors, including the extent of domestic and foreign production,
foreign imports of oil, market demand, domestic and foreign economic
conditions in general, and governmental regulations and tax laws. The
general level of inflation in the economy did not have a material
effect on the operations of the Program in 1995. Oil and natural gas
prices have fluctuated during recent years and generally have not
followed the same pattern as inflation. See "Item 2. Properties - Oil
and Gas Production, Revenue, and Price History."

DYCO OIL AND GAS PROGRAM 1986-2 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Nature of Operations
The Dyco Oil and Gas Program 1986-2 Limited Partnership (the
"Program"), a Minnesota limited partnership, commenced operations
on August 1, 1986. Dyco Petroleum Corporation ("Dyco") is the
General Partner of the Program. Affiliates of Dyco owned 428.36
(21.0%) of the Program's Units at December 31, 1995.
The Program's sole business is the development and production of
oil and natural gas with a concentration on natural gas.
Substantially all of the Program's natural gas reserves are being
sold regionally in the "spot market." Due to the highly
competitive nature of the spot market, prices on the spot market
are subject to wide seasonal and regional pricing fluctuations.
In addition, such spot market sales are generally short-term in
nature and are dependent upon the obtaining of transportation
services provided by pipelines.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Program considers all highly liquid investments with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents. Cash equivalents are not insured, which cause the
Program to be subject to risk.
Credit Risk
Accrued oil and gas sales which are due from a variety of oil and
natural gas purchasers subject the Program to a concentration of
credit risk. Some of these purchasers are discussed in Note 3 -
Major Customers.
22
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
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. Capitalized costs are
depleted on the gross revenue method using estimates of proved
reserves. The full cost amortization rates per equivalent Mcf of
gas produced during the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994, and
1993 were $0.21, $0.35, and $0.53, respectively. 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 year
during which such excess occurs. In addition, the Securities and
Exchange Commission rules provide that if prices decline
subsequent to year end, any excess that results from these
declines may also be charged to expense during the current year.
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.
Deferred Charge
The Deferred Charge represents costs deferred for lease operating
expenses incurred in connection with the Program's underproduced
gas imbalance position. At December 31, 1995, cumulative total
gas sales volumes for underproduced wells were less than the
Program's pro-rata share of total gas production from these wells
by 116,709 Mcf, resulting in prepaid lease operating expenses of
$43,323. At December 31, 1994, cumulative total gas sales
volumes for underproduced wells were less than the Program's pro-
rata share of total gas production from these wells by 129,234
Mcf, resulting in prepaid lease operating expenses of $40,024.
23
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Oil and Gas Sales and Gas Imbalance Payable
The Program's oil and condensate production is sold, title
passed, and revenue recognized at or near the Program's wells
under short-term purchase contracts at prevailing prices in
accordance with arrangements which are customary in the oil
industry. Sales of natural gas applicable to the Program's
interest in producing oil and gas leases are recorded as income
when the gas is metered and title transferred pursuant to the gas
sales contracts covering the Program's interest in natural gas
reserves. During such times as the Program's sales of gas exceed
its pro rata ownership in a well, such sales are recorded as
income unless total sales from the well have exceeded the
Program's share of estimated total gas reserves underlying the
property at which time such excess is recorded as a liability.
At December 31, 1995, no such liability was recorded. At
December 31, 1994, total sales exceeded the Program's share of
estimated total gas reserves on one well by $1,060 (716 Mcf).
This amount was recorded as a gas imbalance payable at
December 31, 1994 in accordance with the sales method.
Use of Estimates in Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Further, accrued oil and gas sales, the deferred charge, the gas
imbalance payable, and the accrued liability all involve
estimates which could materially differ from the actual amounts
ultimately realized or incurred in the near term. Oil and gas
reserves (see Note 4) also involve significant estimates which
could materially differ from the actual amounts ultimately
realized.
Income Taxes
Income or loss for income tax purposes is includable in the
income tax returns of the partners. Accordingly, no recognition
has been given to income taxes in the accompanying financial
statements.

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
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 years ended
December 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993, such expenses totaled $35,152,
$33,944, and $38,768, respectively, of which $29,364, $29,364,
and $29,082, were paid to Dyco and its affiliates.
Affiliates of the Program operate certain of the Program's
properties. Their policy is to bill the Program for all
customary charges and cost reimbursements associated with these
activities, together with any compressor rentals, consulting, or
other services provided.
The Program sells gas at market prices to Premier Gas Company
("Premier") and other similar gas marketing firms. Such firms
may then resell such gas to third parties at market prices.
Premier was an affiliate of the Program until December 6, 1995.
During 1995, 1994, and 1993, these sales totaled $196,477,
$274,076, and $346,394, respectively. At December 31, 1995 and
1994 accrued oil and gas sales included $36,760 and $30,011,
respectively, due from Premier.
3. MAJOR CUSTOMERS
The following purchasers individually accounted for more than 10%
of the combined oil and gas revenues (excluding the gas imbalance
adjustment) of the Program for the years ended December 31, 1995,
1994, and 1993:
Purchaser 1995 1994 1993
--------- ----- ----- -----
Premier 66.2% 72.3% 82.2%
Flying J Oil and
Gas, Inc. 31.0% 20.5% 17.4%
In the event of interruption of purchases by these significant
customers or the cessation or material change in availability of
open-access transportation by the Program's pipeline
transporters, the Program may encounter difficulty in marketing
its gas and in maintaining historic sales levels. Alternative
purchasers or transporters may not be readily available.

The process of estimating oil and gas reserves is complex,
requiring significant subjective decisions in the evaluation of
available geological, engineering, and economic data for each
reservoir. The data for a given reservoir may change
substantially over time as a result of, among other things,
additional development activity, production history, and
viability of production under varying economic conditions; con-
sequently, it is reasonably possible that material revisions to
existing reserve estimates may occur in the near future.
Although every reasonable effort has been made to ensure that the
reserve estimates reported herein represent the most accurate
assessment possible, the significance of the subjective decisions
required and variances in available data for various reservoirs
make these estimates generally less precise than other estimates
presented in connection with financial statement disclosures.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Program is a limited partnership and, therefore, has no
officers or directors. The following table summarizes the amounts
paid by the Program as compensation and reimbursements to Dyco and its
affiliates for the three years ended December 31, 1995:
31
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Compensation/Reimbursement to Dyco and its affiliates
Three Years Ended December 31, 1995
Type of Compensation/Reimbursement(1) Expense
- - ------------------------------------- -------------------------
1995 1994 1993
------- ------- -------
Compensation:
Operations $ (2) $ (2) $ (2)
Gas Marketing $ (3) $ (3) $ (3)
Reimbursements:
General and Administrative,
Geological, and Engineering
Expenses and Direct
Expenses(4) $29,364 $29,364 $29,082
- - ----------
(1) The authority for all of such compensation and reimbursement is
the limited partnership agreement of the Program. With respect
to the Operations activities noted in the table, management
believes that such compensation is equal to or less than that
charged by unaffiliated persons in the same geographic areas and
under the same conditions.
(2) Affiliates of the Program serve as operator of a significant
portion of the Program's wells. Dyco, as General Partner,
contracts with such affiliates for services as operator of the
wells. As operator, such affiliates are compensated at rates
provided in the operating agreements in effect and charged to all
parties to such agreement. The dollar amount of such compen-
sation paid by the Program to such affiliates is impossible to
quantify as of the date of this Annual Report.
(3) Premier, an affiliate of the Program until December 6, 1995,
purchased a portion of the Program's gas at market prices and
resold such gas at market prices directly to end-users and local
distribution companies. For the years ended December 31, 1995,
1994, and 1993, the Program sold $196,477, $274,076, and
$346,394, respectively, of gas to Premier.
(4) The Program reimburses Dyco and its affiliates for reasonable and
necessary general and administrative, geological, and engineering
expenses and direct expenses incurred in connection with their
management and operation of the Program. The directors,
officers, and employees of Dyco and its affiliates receive no
direct remuneration from the Program for their services to the
Program. See "Salary Reimbursement Table" below. The allocable
general and administrative, geological, and engineering expenses
are apportioned on a reasonable basis between the Program's
business and all other oil and natural gas activities of Dyco and
its affiliates, including Dyco's management and operation of
affiliated oil and gas limited partnerships. The allocation to
the Program of these costs is made by Dyco as General Partner.

As noted in the Compensation/Reimbursement Table above, the
directors, officers, and employees of Dyco and their affiliates
receive no direct remuneration from the Program for their services.
However, to the extent such services represent direct involvement with
the Program, as opposed to general corporate functions, such persons'
salaries are allocated to and reimbursed by the Program. Such
allocation to the Program's general and administrative, geological,
and engineering expenses of the salaries of directors, officers, and
employees of Dyco and its affiliates is based on internal records
maintained by Dyco and its affiliates, and represents investor
relations, legal, accounting, data processing, management, and other
functions directly attributable to the Program's operations. The
following table indicates the approximate amount of general and
administrative expense reimbursement attributable to the salaries of
the directors and officers of Dyco and its affiliates for the three
years ended December 31, 1995:

<F1> The general and administrative expenses paid by the Program and attributable to salary
reimbursements do not include any salary or other compensation attributable to Mr. Tholen.
<F2> No officer or director of Dyco or its affiliates provides full-time services to the
Program and no individual's salary or other compensation reimbursement from the Program
equals or exceeds $100,000 per annum.

In addition to the compensation/reimbursements noted above,
during the three years ended December 31, 1995, the Samson Companies
were in the business of supplying field and drilling equipment and
services to affiliated and unaffiliated parties in the industry. Such
companies may have provided equipment and services for wells in which
the Program has an interest. These equipment and services were
provided at prices or rates equal to or less than those normally
charged in the same or comparable geographic area by unaffiliated
persons or companies dealing at arm's length. The operators of these
wells bill the Program for a portion of such costs based upon the
Program's interest in the well.
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND
MANAGEMENT
The following table provides information as to the beneficial
ownership of the Program's Units as of December 31, 1995 by each
beneficial owner of more than 5% of the issued and outstanding Units
and by the directors, officers, and affiliates of Dyco. The address
of each of such persons is Samson Plaza, Two West Second Street,
Tulsa, Oklahoma 74103.
Number of Units
Beneficially
Owned (Percent
Beneficial Owner of Outstanding)
------------------------------- ---------------
Samson Properties Incorporated 428.36 (21.0%)
All directors, officers, and
affiliates of Dyco as a group
and Dyco (8 persons) 428.36 (21.0%)
To the best knowledge of the Program and Dyco, there were no
officers, directors, or 5% owners who were delinquent filers of
reports required under section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Dyco and certain of its affiliates engage in oil and gas
activities independently of the Program which result in conflicts of
interest that cannot be totally eliminated. The allocation of
acquisition and drilling opportunities and the nature of the
compensation arrangements between the Program and Dyco also create
potential conflicts of interest. Dyco and its affiliates own a
significant amount of the Program's Units and therefore have an
identity of interest with other limited partners with respect to the
operations of the Program.
In order to attempt to assure limited liability for limited
partners as well as an orderly conduct of business, management of the
Program is exercised solely by Dyco. The partnership agreement of the
Program grants Dyco broad discretionary authority with respect to the
Program's participation in drilling prospects and expenditure and
control of funds, including borrowings. These provisions are similar
to those contained in prospectuses and partnership agreements for
other public oil and gas partnerships. Broad discretion as to general
management of the Program involves circumstances where Dyco has
conflicts of interest and where it must allocate costs and expenses,
or opportunities, among the Program and other competing interests.
Dyco does not devote all of its time, efforts, and personnel
exclusively to the Program. Furthermore, the Program does not have
any employees, but instead rely on the personnel of the Samson
Companies. The Program thus competes with the Samson Companies
(including other currently sponsored oil and gas programs) for the
time and resources of such personnel. The Samson Companies devote
such time and personnel to the management of the Program as are
indicated by the circumstances and as are consistent with Dyco's
fiduciary duties.
Affiliates of the Program are solely responsible for the negotia-
tion, administration, and enforcement of oil and gas sales agreements
covering a Program's leasehold interests. Until December 6, 1995,
Dyco had delegated the negotiation, administration, and enforcement of
its oil and gas sales agreements to Premier. In addition to providing
such administrative services, Premier purchased and resold gas
directly to end-users and local distribution companies. Because
affiliates of the Program who provide services to the Program have
fiduciary or other duties to other members of the Samson Companies,
contract amendments and negotiating positions taken by them in their
effort to enforce contracts with purchasers may not necessarily repre-
sent the positions that a Program would take if it were to administer
its own contracts without involvement with other members of the Samson
Companies. On the other hand, management believes that the Program's
negotiating strength and contractual positions have been enhanced by
virtue of its affiliation with the Samson Companies.
