                              (Unaudited)
1.   ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     -------------------

     The  balance sheets as of June 30, 1997, statements of operations
     for the  three and six months  ended June 30, 1997  and 1996, and
     statements of cash flows for  the six months ended June 30,  1997
     and  1996  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  June 30,  1997, results of  operations for the  three and six
     months ended June 30,  1997 and 1996, and  changes in cash  flows
     for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 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, 1996.   The  results  of operations  for the
     period  ended June 30, 1997 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.   The Program's calculation
     of depreciation, depletion,  and amortization includes  estimated
     future expenditures to be  incurred in developing proved reserves
     and   estimated  dismantlement  and  abandonment  costs,  net  of
     estimated salvage values.   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.    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  period 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

                                 -10-

<PAGE>
     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 June 30, 1997 and  1996 the 1980-1 Program
     incurred   such   expenses   totaling   $16,278    and   $17,487,
     respectively, of  which $14,022  was paid  quarterly to Dyco  and
     each affiliates.  During the six  months ended June 30, 1997  and
     1996 the  1980-1 Program incurred such  expenses totaling $39,139
     and $37,520, respectively, of which $28,044 was paid each  period
     to Dyco and each affiliates.  During the three  months ended June
     30,  1997 and  1996  the 1980-2  Program  incurred such  expenses
     totaling $24,199 and $25,760,  respectively, of which $21,405 was
     paid quarterly to Dyco and its affiliates.  During the six months
     ended June 30,  1997 and  1996 the 1980-2  Program incurred  such
     expenses  totaling $56,673  and  $54,433, respectively,  of which
     $42,810 was paid each period to Dyco and its affiliates.

     Affiliates  of  the Programs  operate  certain  of the  Programs'
     properties.    Their  policy is  to  bill  the  Programs for  all
     customary  charges and cost  reimbursements associated with these
     activities.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


USE OF FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
- -----------------------------------------------

     This   Quarterly   Report   contains    certain   forward-looking
     statements.  The words "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "plan,"
     "intend,"  "estimate," "project,"  "could,"  "may,"  and  similar
     expressions are intended  to identify forward-looking statements.
     Such statements reflect management's  current views with  respect
     to  future  events and  financial  performance.   This  Quarterly
     Report also includes  certain information, which is,  or is based
     upon, estimates and assumptions.   Such estimates and assumptions
     are management's efforts to  accurately reflect the condition and
     operation of the Programs.

     Use of forward-looking statements  and estimates and  assumptions
     involve  risks  and  uncertainties  which include,  but  are  not
     limited to, the volatility of oil and gas prices, the uncertainty
     of reserve  information, the  operating risk associated  with oil
     and gas properties (including the risk of personal injury, death,
     property  damage,  damage to  the  well  or producing  reservoir,
     environmental  contamination, and  other  operating  risks),  the
     prospect of  changing tax  and regulatory laws,  the availability
     and capacity  of  processing and  transportation facilities,  the
     general economic climate, the supply and price of foreign imports
     of  oil and gas,  the level of  consumer product demand,  and the
     price  and availability of alternative fuels.  Should one or more
     of  these risks  or uncertainties  occur or  should  estimates or
     underlying  assumptions  prove  incorrect, actual  conditions  or
     results  may vary  materially  and adversely  from those  stated,
     anticipated, believed, estimated, or otherwise indicated.


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.

     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
- ---------------------

     GENERAL DISCUSSION

     The following  general discussion  should be read  in conjunction
     with the analysis of  results of operations provided below.   The
     most important  variable affecting the Programs'  revenues is the
     prices  received for the sale of oil  and gas.  Predicting future
     prices is very difficult.  Substantially all of the Programs' gas
     reserves are being sold in the "spot market".  Prices on the spot
     market  are  subject  to   wide  seasonal  and  regional  pricing
     fluctuations due  to the  highly competitive  nature of the  spot
     market.  In addition, such spot market sales are generally short-
     term  in  nature  and  are   dependent  upon  the  obtaining   of
     transportation  services provided  by pipelines.   Management  is
     unable  to predict  whether future  oil and  gas prices  will (i)
     stabilize, (ii) increase, or (iii) decrease.

      Average price/Mcf                 $   2.44        $   1.87

     As shown in  the table above, total  oil and gas  sales decreased
     $57,452  (27.7%)  for the  three months  ended  June 30,  1997 as
     compared  to  the three  months  ended June  30, 1996.    Of this
     decrease,  approximately $91,000  was  related to  a decrease  in
     volumes  of  gas   sold,  partially  offset  by  an  increase  of
     approximately  $33,000 related  to  the increase  in the  average
     price of  gas sold.   Volumes of  oil and gas  sold decreased  41
     barrels and 48,580 Mcf, respectively, for the three months  ended
     June  30, 1997 as  compared to  the three  months ended  June 30,
     1996.  The  decrease in  volumes of gas  sold resulted  primarily
     from positive gas balancing  adjustments made by the  operator on
     two wells during the three months  ended June 30, 1996.   Average
     oil and gas  prices increased to $20.66 per barrel  and $2.44 per
     Mcf,  respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 1997 from
     $18.55  per barrel and $1.87 per Mcf, respectively, for the three
     months ended June 30, 1996.

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses and  production taxes) decreased $8,282  (23.3%) for the
     three months ended June 30, 1997 as compared  to the three months
     ended  June 30,  1996.   This  decrease  resulted primarily  from
     decreases  in volumes of oil and gas sold during the three months
     ended June 30,  1997 as compared to  the three months  ended June
     30, 1996.   As a percentage of oil and  gas sales, these expenses
     remained relatively constant at 18.3% for the  three months ended

     June 30, 1997 and 17.2% for the three months ended June 30, 1996.

     Depreciation,  depletion,  and   amortization  of  oil   and  gas
     properties decreased  $26,158 (59.8%) for the  three months ended
     June 30, 1997  as compared  to the  three months  ended June  30,
     1996.   This decrease  resulted primarily  from (i)  decreases in
     volumes of oil and  gas sold during  the three months ended  June
     30, 1997 as compared to the  three months ended June 30, 1996 and
     (ii) upward revisions in  the estimates of remaining oil  and gas
     reserves at  December 31, 1996.   As a percentage of  oil and gas
     sales, this expense decreased to 11.7% for the three months ended
     June  30, 1997  from 21.1% for  the three  months ended  June 30,
     1996.  This percentage  decrease was primarily due to  the dollar
     decrease in  depreciation, depletion, and  amortization discussed
     above and the increases in the average prices of oil and gas sold
     during the three  months ended June 30,  1997 as compared to  the
     three months ended June 30, 1996.

     General and administrative expenses  decreased $1,209 (6.9%)  for
     the three months  ended June  30, 1997 as  compared to the  three
     months ended  June 30,  1996.  This  decrease resulted  primarily
     from  a decrease  in professional  fees during  the  three months
     ended June 30,  1997 as compared  to the three months  ended June
     30, 1996.  As a  percentage of oil and gas sales,  these expenses
     increased to 10.9%  for the three months ended June 30, 1997 from
     8.4% for the  three months ended June 30, 1996.   This percentage
     increase was primarily due  to the decrease in oil and  gas sales
     discussed above.

      Average price/Mcf                 $   2.33        $   1.89

     As shown  in the table above,  total oil and gas  sales decreased
     $15,061 (3.9%) for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared
     to  the  six months  ended  June 30,  1996.    Of this  decrease,
     approximately $2,000 and  $82,000, respectively, were related  to
     decreases in volumes  of oil  and gas sold,  partially offset  by
     increases  of  approximately  $3,000  and  $67,000, respectively,
     related to increases in  the average prices of oil and  gas sold.
     Volumes of oil and gas sold decreased 92 barrels  and 43,454 Mcf,
     respectively,  for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared
     to  the six months ended June 30,  1996.  The decrease in volumes
     of  gas  sold  resulted primarily  from  (i)  normal  declines in
     production due to diminished gas reserves on two wells and (ii) a
     positive gas balancing  adjustment made  by the  operator on  one
     well during the six months ended  June 30, 1996.  Average oil and
     gas  prices increased  to $21.50  per barrel  and $2.33  per Mcf,
     respectively,  for the six months ended June 30, 1997 from $18.51
     per  barrel and $1.89 per  Mcf, respectively, for  the six months
     ended June 30, 1996.

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses and production taxes)  decreased $34,529 (34.8%) for the
     six  months ended  June 30,  1997 as  compared to the  six months
     ended June 30, 1996.   This decrease resulted primarily  from (i)
     decreases in volumes  of oil and gas  sold during the six  months
     ended June  30, 1997 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
     1996,  (ii) workover expenses incurred on one well during the six
     months ended  June 30, 1996 in  order to improve  the recovery of
     reserves, (iii) the sale of another well during the third quarter
     of 1996,  and (iv)  the shutting-in  of one  well during  the six
     months ended June 30, 1997 due to mechanical  difficulties.  As a
     percentage  of oil  and gas  sales,  these expenses  decreased to
     17.3%  for the six months ended June  30, 1997 from 25.4% for the
     six months ended  June 30,  1996.  This  percentage decrease  was
     primarily due  to  increases in the average prices of oil and gas
     sold during the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the
     six months ended June 30, 1996.

     Depreciation,  depletion,  and  amortization   of  oil  and   gas
     properties decreased $9,971 (12.3%) for the six months ended June
     30, 1997 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996.  This
     decrease resulted primarily  from decreases in volumes of oil and
     gas sold during the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to
     the  six months ended June 30, 1996.   As a percentage of oil and
     gas sales, this expense remained relatively constant at 19.0%  as
     compared to 20.8% for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

     General  and administrative expenses remained relatively constant
     for the  six months ended  June 30, 1997  as compared to  the six
     months  ended June  30, 1996.   As  a percentage  of oil  and gas
     sales, these  expenses remained relatively constant  at 10.4% for
     the six  months ended June 30,  1997 as compared to  9.6% for the

     As shown in the  table above, total  oil and gas sales  decreased
     $209,778  (48.0%) for  the three  months ended  June 30,  1997 as
     compared  to  the three  months ended  June  30, 1996.    Of this
     decrease,  approximately $236,000  was related  to a  decrease in
     volumes  of  gas  sold,  partially  offset   by  an  increase  of
     approximately  $27,000 related  to  the increase  in the  average
     price of  gas sold.   Volumes of  oil and gas  sold decreased  41
     barrels and 134,584 Mcf, respectively, for the three months ended
     June 30,  1997 as  compared to  the three  months ended  June 30,

     from positive gas balancing  adjustments made by the  operator on
     two wells during the  three months ended June 30,  1996.  Average
     oil and gas prices increased to  $21.02 per barrel and $1.99  per
     Mcf,  respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 1997 from
     $17.88  per barrel and $1.75 per Mcf, respectively, for the three
     months ended June 30, 1996.

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses and production taxes)  decreased $12,654 (23.2%) for the
     three months ended June 30, 1997  as compared to the three months
     ended June 30, 1996.   This decrease resulted primarily  from (i)
     decreases in volumes of oil and gas sold during the  three months
     ended  June 30, 1997 as  compared to the  three months ended June
     30,  1996 and (ii) a decrease in production taxes associated with
     the decrease  in  oil and  gas sales  discussed above,  partially
     offset by an increase in lease operating expenses due to workover
     expenses  incurred on one well during the three months ended June
     30, 1997  in order to  improve the  recovery of reserves.   As  a
     percentage  of  oil and  gas sales,  these expenses  increased to
     18.5% for the three months ended June 30, 1997 from 12.5% for the
     three months ended June  30, 1996.  This percentage  increase was
     primarily  due to  the  increase in  workover expenses  discussed
     above.

     Depreciation,  depletion,  and   amortization  of  oil  and   gas
     properties decreased  $49,468 (68.9%) for the  three months ended
     June 30, 1997  as compared  to the  three months  ended June  30,
     1996.  This  decrease resulted  primarily from  (i) decreases  in
     volumes of oil and  gas sold during  the three months ended  June
     30, 1997  as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1996 and
     (ii) upward revisions in  the estimates of remaining oil  and gas
     reserves at  December 31, 1996.   As a percentage of  oil and gas
     sales,  this expense decreased to 9.8% for the three months ended
     June  30, 1997  from 16.4% for  the three  months ended  June 30,
     1996.  This percentage  decrease was primarily due to  the dollar

     the three months  ended June  30, 1997 as  compared to the  three
     months  ended June  30, 1996.   This decrease  resulted primarily
     from a  decrease in  professional fees  during  the three  months

     compared to  the  six  months  ended June  30,  1996.    Of  this
     decrease,  approximately $216,000  was related  to a  decrease in
     volumes  of  gas  sold,  partially  offset   by  an  increase  of
     approximately  $80,000 related  to  the increase  in the  average
     price  of gas sold.   Volumes of  oil and gas  sold decreased 169
     barrels  and 119,940 Mcf, respectively,  for the six months ended
     June 30, 1997 as compared to  the six months ended June 30, 1996.
     The decrease in  volumes of  gas sold resulted  primarily from  a
     positive  gas balancing  adjustment made by  the operator  on one
     well during the six months ended  June 30, 1996.  Average oil and
     gas  prices increased  to $21.60  per barrel  and $2.16  per Mcf,
     respectively,  for the six months ended June 30, 1997 from $18.19
     per  barrel and $1.80 per  Mcf, respectively, for  the six months
     ended June 30, 1996.

     Oil  and  gas  production  expenses  (including  lease  operating
     expenses and production taxes)  decreased $32,914 (28.0%) for the
     six  months ended  June 30, 1997  as compared  to the  six months
     ended June 30, 1996.   This decrease resulted primarily  from (i)
     decreases in volumes  of oil and gas  sold during the  six months
     ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the six months  ended June 30,
     1996  and (ii) a decrease in production taxes associated with the
     decrease  in oil and gas sales  discussed above.  As a percentage
     of oil and gas sales, these expenses remained relatively constant
     at 17.2% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 18.7% for the
     six months ended June 30, 1996.

     Depreciation,  depletion,   and  amortization  of  oil   and  gas
     properties  decreased $32,631  (31.8%) for  the six  months ended
     June 30, 1997 as compared to the six months ended  June 30, 1996.
     This decrease resulted primarily from decreases in volumes of oil
     and  gas sold  during  the  six months  ended  June  30, 1997  as
     compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996.   As a percentage
