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

Results of Operations

Six months ended June 30, 2000 compared with six months ended
  June 30, 1999

Revenues:

The  Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  increased  98% to $695,926 for the six
months  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to $351,757 for the same period in 1999.
The increase in revenues resulted from higher average prices received, offset by
a decline in production.  For the six months ended June 30, 2000, 21,685 barrels
of oil, 4,984 barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and 22,894 mcf of gas were

                                        7

sold, or 30,485  barrel of oil  equivalents  ("BOEs").  For the six months ended
June 30, 1999,  22,010  barrels of oil,  5,918 barrels of NGLs and 25,190 mcf of
gas were sold, or 32,126 BOEs.

The average price  received per barrel of oil increased  $14.15,  or 107%,  from
$13.18 for the six months  ended June 30,  1999 to $27.33 for the same period in
2000. The average price received per barrel of NGLs  increased  $5.80,  or 103%,
from  $5.61  during the six  months  ended June 30,  1999 to $11.41 for the same
period in 2000.  The average  price  received per mcf of gas  increased 80% from
$1.13 for the six  months  ended June 30,  1999 to $2.03 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 six
months ended June 30, 2000.

The volatility of commodity prices has had, and continues to have, a significant
impact on the Partnership's revenues and operating cash flow and could result in
additional  decreases to the  carrying  value of the  Partnership's  oil and gas
properties.

Gains on disposition of assets of $24,345 and $5,299 were recognized  during the
six  months  ended June 30,  2000 and 1999,  respectively.  The gain  recognized
during the period ended June 30, 2000 was  comprised  of $10,858 from  equipment
credits on one well  plugged and  abandoned  in the  current  period and $13,487
salvage income  primarily from wells plugged and abandoned during 1999. The gain
recognized  during  the period  ended June 30,  1999  consisted  of $4,004  from
equipment credits on fully depleted wells and $1,295 from equipment credits on a
well plugged and abandoned during 1998.  Expenses incurred during the six months
ended June 30,  2000 and 1999 to plug and abandon  these wells were  $13,069 and
$1,813, respectively.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and expenses increased to $427,095 for the six months ended June 30,
2000 as  compared  to  $344,241  for the same  period in 1999,  an  increase  of
$82,854,  or 24%.  This  increase  was the  result of higher  production  costs,
abandoned property costs and general and administrative expenses ("G&A"), offset
by a decline in depletion.

Production  costs  were  $359,931  for the six months  ended  June 30,  2000 and
$271,521 for the same period in 1999, resulting in an $88,410 increase,  or 33%.
The  increase  was  attributable  to  additional   workover  expenses  and  well
maintenance  costs incurred to stimulate well  production and higher  production
taxes due to higher oil and gas prices.

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, 98% from $10,553 for the six months ended June 30, 1999
to $20,878 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 $33,217 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $60,354
for the same period in 1999, a decrease of $27,137,  or 45%.  This  decrease was
the result of an increase in proved  reserves  during the period  ended June 30,
2000 due to higher commodity prices,  a decline in oil production of 325 barrels

                                        8

for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 and 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.

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

Revenues:

The Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  increased 65% to $329,057 for the three
months  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to $198,979 for the same period in 1999.
The increase in revenues resulted from higher average prices received, offset by
a decline in production. For the three months ended June 30, 2000, 9,809 barrels
of oil,  2,987  barrels of NGLs and 13,759 mcf of gas were sold, or 15,089 BOEs.
For the three months ended June 30, 1999,  10,807  barrels of oil, 3,090 barrels
of NGLs and 12,770 mcf of gas were sold, or 16,025 BOEs.

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  increased  $12.01,  or 79%, from
$15.15 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $27.16 for the same period in
2000.  The average price received per barrel of NGLs  increased  $4.42,  or 66%,
from $6.65  during the three  months  ended June 30, 1999 to $11.07 for the same
period in 2000.  The average  price  received per mcf of gas  increased 87% from
$1.15  during the three  months ended June 30, 1999 to $2.15 for the same period
in 2000.

Gain on  disposition  of assets of $8,716 was  recognized  for the three  months
ended  June 30,  2000.  The gain  consisted  of $4,981  from  equipment  credits
received on a fully  depleted well and $3,735  salvage  income on a well plugged
and abandoned during 1999.  Expenses incurred during the three months ended June
30, 2000 and 1999 to plug and abandon wells totaled $286 and $189, respectively.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and  expenses  increased to $225,996 for the three months ended June
30, 2000 as compared  to  $163,726  for the same period in 1999,  an increase of
$62,270, or 38%. This increase was due to increases in production costs, G&A and
abandoned property costs, offset by a decline in depletion.

Production  costs were  $200,770  for the three  months  ended June 30, 2000 and
$137,049 for the same period in 1999,  resulting in a $63,721 increase,  or 46%.
The increase was due to additional  workover expenses and well maintenance costs
incurred to stimulate well production and higher  production taxes due to higher
oil and gas prices.

During this period, G&A increased,  in aggregate,  65% from $5,970 for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 to $9,872 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 $15,068  for the three  months  ended June 30,  2000  compared to
$20,518 for the same period in 1999, a decrease of $5,450, or 27%. This decrease
was the result of an increase in proved  reserves  during the period  ended June
30, 2000 as a result of higher commodity  prices, a decline in oil production of
998  barrels  for the three  months  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the same
period in 1999 and a reduction in the  Partnership's  net depletable  basis from
charges taken in accordance with SFAS 121 during the fourth quarter of 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash  provided by operating  activities  increased  $241,436  during the six
months  ended  June 30,  2000 from the same  period in 1999.  The  increase  was
attributable to an increase of $358,861 in oil and gas sales receipts, offset by
increases in operating costs paid of $95,658,  abandoned  property costs paid of
$11,256 and G&A expenses paid of $10,511.

Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities

The  Partnership's  principal  investing  activities during the six months ended

active properties.

Proceeds from  disposition of assets of $34,391 and $5,273 were received  during
the six  months  ended  June  30,  2000 and  1999,  respectively.  The  proceeds
recognized  during the period in 2000 were primarily  from equipment  credits on
wells plugged and abandoned during 2000 and 1999. During the period in 1999, the
proceeds were primarily from equipment credits on fully depleted wells.
