Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
              and Results of Operations (1)

Results of Operations

Nine months ended  September 30, 2000 compared with nine months ended  September
  30, 1999

Revenues:

The  Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  increased 66% to $673,913 for the nine
months ended  September  30, 2000 as compared to $406,888 for the same period in
1999.  The increase in revenues  resulted from  higher  average prices received,

                                        7

offset by a decline in production. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
12,982 barrels of oil, 11,853 barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and 48,604
mcf of gas were sold, or 32,936 barrel of oil equivalents ("BOEs"). For the nine
months ended  September 30, 1999,  14,384 barrels of oil, 12,143 barrels of NGLs
and 52,746 mcf of gas were sold, or 35,318 BOEs.

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  increased  $13.48,  or 89%, from
$15.15  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1999 to $28.63 for the same
period in 2000. The average price  received per barrel of NGLs increased  $6.44,
or 73%, from $8.79 during the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to $15.23 for
the same period in 2000. The average price received per mcf of gas increased 61%
from $1.56 for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1999 to $2.51 for the same
period in 2000. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely  volatile in
the past  decade  and  management  expects a certain  amount  of  volatility  to
continue in the  foreseeable  future.  The  Partnership  may therefore  sell its
future  oil and gas  production  at  average  prices  lower or higher  than that
received during the nine months ended September 30, 2000.

Gain on disposition  of assets of $30,827 was recognized  during the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 resulting from equipment credits on two wells.

Costs and Expenses:

Total  costs and  expenses  decreased  to  $305,721  for the nine  months  ended
September  30,  2000 as compared  to  $321,647  for the same  period in 1999,  a
decrease of $15,926,  or 5%. This  decrease  was due to a decline in  depletion,
offset by increases in production costs and general and administrative  expenses
("G&A").

Production  costs were $265,976 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and
$239,085 for the same period in 1999  resulting in a $26,891  increase,  or 11%.
This increase was primarily due to higher production taxes of $23,134 associated
with higher oil and gas prices and additional well  maintenance  costs of $2,129
incurred to stimulate well production.

G&A's  components are independent  accounting and engineering  fees and managing
general  partner  personnel  and  operating  costs.   During  this  period,  G&A
increased,  in aggregate,  66% from $12,207 for the nine months ended  September
30,  1999 to  $20,217  for the same  period  in 2000  primarily  due to a higher
allocation of the managing general partner's G&A being allocated  (limited to 3%
of oil and gas revenues) as a result of increased oil and gas revenues.

Depletion  was $19,528 for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000 compared to
$70,355 for the same period in 1999, representing a decrease of $50,827, or 72%.
This  decrease  was the result of an increase in proved  reserves  due to higher
commodity  prices as  compared to the same  period in 1999,  a reduction  in the
Partnership's  net  depletable  basis  from  charges  taken in  accordance  with
Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  121,  "Accounting  for the
Impairment of  Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed Of"
("SFAS 121") during the fourth  quarter of 1999 and a decline in oil  production
of 1,402  barrels for the nine months ended  September  30, 2000 compared to the
same period in 1999.

Three months ended September 30, 2000 compared with three months ended September
  30, 1999

Revenues:

The Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  increased 62% to $280,167 for the three
months ended  September  30, 2000 as compared to $173,469 for the same period in
1999. The increase in revenues  resulted from higher average prices received and
an increase in production.  For the three months ended September 30, 2000, 3,814
barrels of oil, 5,599 barrels of NGLs and 22,585 mcf of gas were sold, or 13,177
BOEs. For the three months ended September 30, 1999, 4,522 barrels of oil, 4,548
barrels of NGLs and 19,575 mcf of gas were sold, or 12,333 BOEs.

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  increased  $11.62,  or 61%, from
$19.20 for the three  months  ended  September  30,  1999 to $30.82 for the same
period in 2000. The average price  received per barrel of NGLs increased  $5.21,
or 47%, from $11.18  during the three months ended  September 30, 1999 to $16.39
for the same period in 2000. The average price received per mcf of gas increased
72% from $1.83 for the three  months ended  September  30, 1999 to $3.14 for the
same period in 2000.

Gain on disposition  of assets of $1,856 was recognized  during the three months
ended September 30, 2000 resulting from equipment credits on one well.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and  expenses  increased  to  $103,102  for the three  months  ended
September  30,  2000 as  compared  to $89,402  for the same  period in 1999,  an
increase of $13,700,  or 15%.  This  increase was due to increases in production
costs and G&A, offset by a decline in depletion.

Production  costs were $89,063 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and
$76,203 for the same period in 1999  resulting  in a $12,860  increase,  or 17%.
This increase was primarily due to higher production taxes of $12,087 associated
with higher oil and gas prices, offset by a decline in well maintenance costs of
$1,357.

During this period, G&A increased,  in aggregate,  61% from $5,205 for the three
months ended  September 30, 1999 to $8,405 for the same period in 2000 primarily
due to a higher allocation of the managing general partner's G&A being allocated
(limited to 3% of oil and gas  revenues)  as a result of  increased  oil and gas
revenues.

Depletion  was $5,634 for the three months ended  September 30, 2000 compared to
$7,994 for the same period in 1999,  representing a decrease of $2,360,  or 30%.
This decrease was  attributable to an increase in proved reserves as a result of
higher  commodity  prices as compared to the same period in 1999, a reduction in
the  Partnership's  net depletable  basis from charges taken in accordance  with
SFAS 121 during the fourth  quarter of 1999 and a decline in oil  production  of
708 barrels for the three months ended  September  30, 2000 compared to the same
period in 1999.
