          DYCO OIL AND GAS PROGRAM 1980-2 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            MARCH 31, 1996
                              (Unaudited)

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

   The balance sheets 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  1980-1 and 1980-2
   Limited  Partnerships (individually,  the "1980-1  Program" or  the
   "1980-2  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 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
   Programs'  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.  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  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
   March 31, 1996 and  1995 the 1980-1 Program incurred  such expenses
   totaling $20,033  and $20,085,  respectively, of which  $14,022 and
   $14,022 were paid to Dyco.  During the three months ended March 31,
   1996  and 1995 the  1980-2 Program incurred  such expenses totaling
   $28,673  and $28,956,  respectively, of  which $21,405  and $21,405
   were paid to Dyco.  

   Affiliates  of the  Programs 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  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  Programs until
   December 6,  1995.   During the three  months ended March  31, 1995
   these sales for the  1980-1 Program totaled $108,086.   At December
   31, 1995, accrued oil and gas sales for the 1980-1 Program included
   $92,090 due from Premier.  During the three months  ended March 31,
   1995  these  sales for  the 1980-2  Program  totaled $132,495.   At
   December 31, 1995, accrued oil and gas sales for the 1980-2 Program
   included $93,000 due from Premier.

3. CONTINGENCIES
   -------------
   On November 12,  1992, certain adjacent landowners  filed a lawsuit
   against  Dyco and others in which the plaintiffs alleged damages to
   their land as a  result of remediation operations conducted  on one
   of  the Programs'  wells.   The  lawsuit  alleged claims  based  on
   negligence, private  nuisance,  public nuisance,  trespass,  unjust
   enrichment,  constructive fraud,  and permanent  injunctive relief,
   all in amounts to be determined at trial.  A trial was conducted in
   the matter on February 22, 1994 in which the jury entered a verdict
   in  favor  of  the  plaintiffs  in  the  amount  of   approximately
   $5.5 million, consisting  of approximately $2.75 million  in actual
   damages and approximately $2.75 million  in punitive damages.  Dyco
   appealed  the district  court's verdict  and on  March 5,  1996 the
   Oklahoma Court of Appeals reversed the district court's verdict and
   ordered  a new  trial.   Both Dyco  and the  plaintiffs have  filed
   petitions for certiorari with the Supreme Court of Oklahoma seeking
   a further review of the Court of Appeals' opinion.

   On March 18, 1993, a royalty owner filed a lawsuit  against Dyco in
   which  the plaintiff alleged entitlement to a share of the proceeds
   of a take-or-pay settlement with a gas purchaser which involved one
   of  the  1980-1  Program's wells.    Plaintiff  is  seeking a  full
   accounting, unpaid  royalties, and his  share of benefits  from the
   gas  purchase contract as a third party beneficiary.  The plaintiff
   has not  quantified the  amount of his  alleged damages.   Dyco has
   filed  its answer  in the  matter  in which  it denied  all of  the
   plaintiff's allegations.   Discovery  is proceeding in  the matter.

                                  -9-

   The plaintiffs filed a motion for  summary judgment on November 29,
   1994 in  the matter.   Oral arguments were  heard on the  motion in
   January  1995,  however,   as  of  the  date  of   these  financial
   statements, the district  court has not ruled on the  motion.  Dyco
   intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit.   As of the date of these
   financial statements, management cannot determine the amount of any
   alleged damages which would be allocable to the 1980-1 Program from
   this lawsuit;  however, it is reasonably possible that events could
   change  in  the future  resulting in  a  material liability  to the
   Program.

   On  October 15, 1993, certain  royalty owners filed  a class action
   lawsuit against Dyco in which the plaintiffs alleged entitlement to
   a  share of  the proceeds  of a  take-or-pay settlement with  a gas
   purchaser which involved three of the Programs' wells.  The lawsuit
   also alleges claims based on unjust enrichment, breach of contract,
   and  breach of  fiduciary obligations  and seeks an  accounting and
   declaration that the plaintiffs are third party beneficiaries under
   the gas contract.  The plaintiffs have not quantified the amount of
   their  damages,  but they  are  seeking  exemplary damages,  unpaid
   royalties, and interest.   Dyco has filed its answer  in the matter
   in  which  it  denied all  of  the  plaintiffs'  allegations.   The
   district  court  certified   the  matter  as  a   class  action  on
   January 21, 1994 and  discovery is  proceeding in the  matter.   On
   November 29,  1994,  the  plaintiffs  filed a  motion  for  summary
   judgment in the matter.  Oral arguments were heard on the motion in
   January  1995,  however,   as  of  the  date   of  these  financial
   statements,  the district court has not  ruled on the motion.  Dyco
   intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit.   As of the date of these
   financial statements, management cannot determine the amount of any
   alleged  damages which would be allocable to the Programs from this
   lawsuit; however it is reasonably possible that events could change
   in the future resulting in a material liability to the Programs.

   On October 26,  1993, certain royalty  owners filed a  class action
   lawsuit against Dyco in which the plaintiffs alleged entitlement to
   a share  of the  proceeds of  a take-or-pay  settlement with  a gas
   purchaser  which involved four of the Programs' wells.  The lawsuit
   also alleges claims based on unjust enrichment, breach of contract,
   and breach  of fiduciary  obligations and  seeks an accounting  and
   declaration that the plaintiffs are third party beneficiaries under
   the gas contract.  The plaintiffs have not quantified the amount of
   their  damages,  but they  are  seeking  exemplary damages,  unpaid
   royalties, and interest.  Dyco  has filed its answer in the  matter
   in  which  it  denied all  of  the  plaintiffs'  allegations.   The
   district  court certified the matter  as a class  action on January
   18, 1994 and  discovery is proceeding in  the matter.   On November
   29, 1994, the plaintiffs filed a motion for summary judgment in the
   matter.  Oral arguments  were heard on the motion in  January 1995,
   however, as of the date of these financial statements, the district
   court has  not ruled  on the motion.   Dyco  intends to  vigorously
   defend the  lawsuit.  As of the date of these financial statements,
   management cannot determine the amount of any alleged damages which
   would be allocable to the Programs from this lawsuit; however it is
   reasonably  possible  that  events   could  change  in  the  future
   resulting in a material liability to the Programs.

   On  December 18, 1992, a royalty  owner filed a  quiet title action
   alleging that the operator  of certain wells in which  the Programs
   have an interest failed  to exercise due diligence in  locating the

                                 -10-
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
   owner  while in  the  process of  force  pooling the  drilling  and
   spacing  unit.  Plaintiff claimed a  right to revenues attributable
   to production from  said wells in an  amount in excess  of $500,000
   and further alleged conversion and claimed a right to "interest" on
   the  proceeds from  production  on the  four wells  pursuant to  52
   O.S. Section  540.  The  defendants filed a  counterclaim for quiet
   title  and asserted  various defenses.    A trial  was held  in the
   matter  on March 3  and 4, 1994  in which the  district court ruled
   against all  defendants and  specifically found that  the operator,
   Apache Corporation, did not  exercise due diligence in  the pooling
   proceedings.  Judgment was  entered on June 15, 1994 in  the amount
   of  $550,000 plus interest.   The defendants  appealed the district
   court's verdict and on March 12, 1996 the Oklahoma Court of Appeals
   reversed  the district  court's  verdict.   Plaintiff  has filed  a
   petition for rehearing with the Oklahoma Court of Appeals.

   On June  14, 1995, a  royalty owner  filed a  class action  lawsuit
   against  Dyco in which the plaintiff alleged entitlement to a share
   of  the proceeds of a  take-or-pay settlement with  a gas purchaser
   which  involved one  of  the Program's  wells.   The  lawsuit  also
   alleges claims based  on unjust enrichment, breach of  contract and
   fiduciary  obligation, and  constructive fraud.   The  plaintiff is
   seeking  an accounting as a third party beneficiary and a temporary
   restraining  order,  along   with  actual  and   punitive  damages,
   interest,  and  costs.    Dyco  intends  to  vigorously  defend the
   lawsuit.   As of the date of these financial statements, management
   cannot determine the amount  of any alleged damages which  would be
   allocable to the 1980-1  Program from this lawsuit; however,  it is
   reasonably  possible  that  events   could  change  in  the  future
   resulting in a material liability to the 1980-1 Program.

   Included  in these financial statements as of December 31, 1995 and
   March  31, 1996 is  an accrual  by the  General Partner  of $40,000
   representing each  Program's  share of  estimated ultimate  damages
   resulting  from the  quiet title  action and  the lawsuit  filed on
   November 12, 1992.  No accruals have been established for the take-
   or-pay lawsuits.

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.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                                        ----            ----    
        Oil and gas sales             $183,176       $138,506   
        Oil and gas production 
         expenses                     $ 63,694       $ 66,016   
        Barrels produced                   538            671   
        Mcf produced                    89,858         98,533   
        Average price/Bbl             $  18.48       $  16.73   
        Average price/Mcf             $   1.93       $   1.29   

     As shown in the table, oil  and natural gas sales increased 32.3%
     for the three  months ended  March 31,  1996 as  compared to  the
     three  months  ended March  31,  1995.   This  increase  resulted
     primarily from the  increases 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,  partially
     offset by  the decreases in  the volumes  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   gas  sold   decreased  133   barrels  and   8,675  Mcf,
     respectively, during  the three  months ended  March 31, 1996  as
     compared to the three months ended  March 31, 1995.  The decrease
     in the volumes  of natural gas sold  was primarily the result  of

                                 -12-
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
     the  normal decline  in  production from  diminished reserves  on
     several wells.  Average  oil and natural gas prices  increased to
     $18.48 per barrel  and $1.93 per Mcf  for the three  months ended
     March 31, 1996  from averages of $16.73 per barrel  and $1.29 per
     Mcf for the three months ended March 31, 1995.       

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses and  production taxes) decreased slightly  by $2,322 for
     the three months ended  March 31, 1996 as  compared to the  three
     months ended March  31, 1995.   The  decrease resulted  primarily
     from  the decrease in  the volumes  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 percentage  of oil and
     gas sales, these expenses decreased to 34.8% for the three months
     ended March 31, 1996 from 47.7%  for the three months ended March
     31, 1995.   This percentage decrease resulted  primarily from the
     increases  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 slightly  by $616 for the three months ended
     March 31, 1996  as compared to  the three months ended  March 31,
     1995.   This decrease resulted primarily from the decrease in the
     volumes 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  percentage  of  oil and  gas  sales,  this expense
     decreased  to 20.5%  for the  three months  ended March  31, 1996
     compared  to 27.5%  for the  three months  ended March  31, 1995.
     This percentage decrease resulted primarily from the increases 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.

     General and administrative  expenses remained relatively constant
     for  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 10.9% for the three months
     ended March 31, 1996 from 14.5% for the three  months ended March
     31,  1995.   This percentage  decrease was  primarily due  to the
     increases  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  shown in the table, oil and natural gas sales increased 16.1%
     for the  three the months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the
     three months ended March  31, 1995.  This increase  resulted from
     the increases in the average prices of  oil and natural gas sold,
     partially  offset by the decrease  in the volumes  of 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   gas  sold   decreased  46   barrels  and   40,166  Mcf,
     respectively,  for  the  three months  ended  March  31, 1996  as
     compared to the three months ended March 31,  1995.  The decrease
     in  the  volumes of  natural  gas  sold  resulted primarily  from
     positive prior  period adjustments during the  three months ended
     March  31,  1995  and  the  normal  decline  in  production  from
     diminished  reserves on  several  wells during  the three  months
     ended March 31, 1996 as compared to  the three months ended March
     31,  1995.   The  average prices  of  oil  and natural  gas  sold
     increased to $18.42 per  barrel and $1.90  per Mcf for the  three
     months  ended March 31, 1996  from averages of  $17.46 per barrel
     and $1.14 per Mcf for the three months ended March 31, 1995.     

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses and  production taxes)  decreased $12,627 for  the three
     months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the three months ended
     March 31, 1995.  This decrease resulted primarily from additional
     workover charges  incurred on  one well  during the  three months
     ended March 31, 1995 in order to improve the recovery of reserves
     and the decrease in  the volumes of  natural gas sold 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 32.9%  for the  three months  ended
     March  31, 1996 from  45.8% for the three  months ended March 31,
     1995.    This percentage  decrease  resulted  primarily from  the
     dollar decrease  in production  expenses related to  the workover
     charges  as discussed  above  and the  increases  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 $13,244 for the three months ended March 31,
     1996 as compared to the three months ended March 31,  1995.  This
     decrease was primarily a result of the decrease in the volumes of
     natural gas sold during the three months ended March 31,  1996 as
     compared to the three  months ended March 31, 1995  and an upward
     revision  in  the  estimate  of the  1980-2  Program's  remaining
     natural gas  reserves at December 31,  1995.  As a  percentage of
     oil and gas sales, this expense decreased  to 16.0% for the three
     months ended  March 31, 1996  as compared to 26.6%  for the three
     months  ended  March  31,  1995.   This  percentage  decrease was
     primarily due to the upward revision in the estimate of remaining
     reserves discussed  above and the increases 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.  

     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 15.0% for the three months

                      PART II:  OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On November 12, 1992 Larry and Leona Beck filed a lawsuit against
Dyco Petroleum Corporation ("Dyco") and others in which the plaintiffs
alleged  damages to their land  as a result  of remediation operations
conducted  on  the Paul  King No.  1-7  well (Beck  v.  Trigg Drilling
Company, Inc., et  al., C-92-227,  District Court  of Beckham  County,
Oklahoma).    The  1980-1  Program  had  an  approximate 4.6%  working
interest  in the Paul King  No. 1-7 well  at the time  the lawsuit was
filed  and the 1980-2 Program had an approximate 4.7% working interest
in the Paul King No. 1-7 well at the time the lawsuit was filed.   The
lawsuit alleged  claims based on negligence,  private nuisance, public
nuisance,  trespass,  unjust   enrichment,  constructive  fraud,   and
permanent injunctive relief, all in amounts to be determined at trial.
A trial was conducted in the matter  on February 22, 1994 in which the
jury entered a  verdict in favor  of the plaintiffs  in the amount  of
approximately $5.5 million, consisting of approximately  $2.75 million
in actual damages and approximately $2.75 million in punitive damages.
Dyco  appealed the district  court's verdict and on  March 5, 1996 the
Oklahoma Court  of Appeals reversed  the district court's  verdict and
ordered  a  new  trial.   Both  Dyco  and  the plaintiffs  have  filed
petitions  for certiorari with the Supreme Court of Oklahoma seeking a
further review of the Court of Appeals' opinion.

     On  December 18, 1992, a royalty owner filed a quiet title action
alleging that the operator of certain wells in which Programs have  an
interest  failed to exercise due diligence in locating the owner while
in  the process of force pooling the  drilling and spacing unit (Merle
McCollum, as Personal  Representative of the Estate  of Jack McCollum,
Deceased v.  Apache  Corporation, et  al., District  Court of  Beckham
County, Oklahoma).   The wells in question  included the Kinney-Warren
No.  3-10, Fender No. 4-10, Mikles No. 1-10, and Damron No. 1-10.  The
1980-1 Program has an approximate 2.3% working interest in the Kinney-
Warren No.  3-10 and  Fender No.  4-10 wells  and an  approximate 5.7%
working interest in  the Mikles No.  1-10 and  Damron No. 1-10  wells,
while the 1980-2 Program  has an approximate 2.4% working  interest in
the   Kinney-Warren  No.  3-10  and  Fender  No.  4-10  wells  and  an
approximate  5.9% working interest in  the Mikles No.  1-10 and Damron
No. 1-10 wells.  Plaintiff claimed a right to revenues attributable to
production from  said wells  in an  amount in  excess of  $500,000 and
further  alleged conversion and claimed  a right to  "interest" on the
proceeds from production on the four wells pursuant to 52 O.S. Section
540.  The defendants filed a counterclaim for quiet title and asserted
various defenses.  A trial  was held in the  matter on March 3 and  4,
1994  in which  the district  court ruled  against all  defendants and
specifically  found that  the  operator, Apache  Corporation, did  not
exercise  due diligence  in  the pooling  proceedings.   Judgment  was
entered on June 15, 1994 in the amount of $550,000 plus interest.  The
defendants appealed the district court's verdict and on March 12, 1996
the Oklahoma Court of  Appeals reversed the district court's  verdict.
Plaintiff has filed a  petition for rehearing with the  Oklahoma Court
of Appeals.
