NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(1) General Information -
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by
the Partnership and are unaudited except for the balance sheet at
December 31, 1997 which has been taken from the audited financial
statements at that date. The financial statements reflect adjustments,
all of which were of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the
opinion of the managing general partner necessary for a fair
presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The
Partnership believes adequate disclosure is provided by the information
presented. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the audited financial statements and the notes included in the latest
Form 10-K.
(2) Gas Imbalances -
The Partnership recognizes its ownership interest in natural
gas production as revenue. Actual production quantities sold may be
different than the Partnership's ownership share in a given period. If
the Partnership's sales exceed its ownership share of production, the
differences are recorded as deferred revenue. Gas balancing receivables
are recorded when the Partnership's ownership share of production
exceeds sales.
(3) Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations -
The Partnership's revenues are primarily the result of sales
of its oil and natural gas production. Market prices of oil and natural
gas may fluctuate and adversely affect operating results.
In the normal course of business, the Partnership extends
credit, primarily in the form of monthly oil and gas sales receivables,
to various companies in the oil and gas industry which results in a
concentration of credit risk. This concentration of credit risk may be
affected by changes in economic or other conditions and may accordingly
impact the Partnership's overall credit risk. However, the Managing
General Partner believes that the risk is mitigated by the size,
reputation, and nature of the companies to which the Partnership extends
credit. In addition, the Partnership generally does not require
collateral or other security to support customer receivables.
(4) Fair Value of Financial Instruments -
The Partnership's financial instruments consist of cash and
cash equivalents and short-term receivables and payables. The carrying
amounts approximate fair value due to the highly liquid nature of the
short-term instruments.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The Partnership was formed for the purpose of investing in producing oil
and gas properties located within the continental United States. In order to
accomplish this, the Partnership goes through two distinct yet overlapping
phases with respect to its liquidity and result of operations. When the
Partnership is formed, it commences its "acquisition" phase, with all funds
placed in short-term investments until required for such property acquisitions.
The interest earned on these pre-acquisition investments becomes the primary
cash flow source for initial partner distributions. As the Partnership acquires
producing properties, net cash from operations becomes available for
distribution, along with the investment income. After partnership funds have
been expended on producing oil and gas properties, the Partnership enters its
"operations" phase. During this phase, oil and gas sales generate substantially
all revenues, and distributions to partners reflect those revenues less all
associated partnership expenses. The Partnership may also derive proceeds from
the sale of acquired oil and gas properties, when the sale of such properties is
economically appropriate or preferable to continued operation.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Oil and gas reserves are depleting assets and therefore often experience
significant production declines each year from the date of acquisition through
the end of the life of the property. The primary source of liquidity to the
Partnership comes almost entirely from the income generated from the sale of oil
and gas produced from ownership interests in oil and gas properties. Net cash
provided by operating activities totaled $195,901 and $118,380 for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This source of liquidity and
the related results of operations, and in turn cash distributions, will decline
in future periods as the oil and gas produced from these properties also
declines while production and general and administrative costs remain relatively
stable making it unlikely that the Partnership will hold the properties until
they are fully depleted, but will likely liquidate when a substantial majority
of the reserves have been produced. The Partnership has expended all of the
partners' net commitments available for property acquisitions and development by
acquiring producing oil and gas properties. The partnership invests primarily in
proved producing properties with nominal levels of future costs of development
for proven but undeveloped reserves. Significant purchases of additional
reserves or extensive drilling activity are not anticipated. Cash distributions
totaled $145,314 and $190,438 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
The Partnership does not allow for additional assessments from the
partners to fund capital requirements. However, funds are available from
partnership revenues, borrowings or proceeds from the sale of partnership
property. The Managing General Partners believes that the funds currently
available to the partnership will be adequate to meet any anticipated capital
requirements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following analysis explains changes in the revenue and expense
categories for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 (current quarter) when compared
to the quarter ended June 30, 1997 (corresponding quarter), and for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 (current period), when compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1997 (corresponding period).
Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997
Oil and gas sales increased $1,559 or 2 percent in the second quarter of
1998 when compared to the same period in 1997, primarily due to increased gas
prices and production. An increase in gas prices of 16 percent or $.27/MCF and
in gas production of 14 percent had a significant impact on partnership
performance. Current quarter oil production declined 36 percent and oil prices
declined 31 percent or $5.01/BBL when compared to second quarter 1997 production
volumes, partially offsetting the effect of increased gas prices and production.
Associated depreciation expense increased 33 percent or $12,782.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997
Oil and gas sales declined $131,957 or 46 percent in the first six months
of 1998 when compared to the corresponding period in 1997, primarily due to
decreased gas and oil prices. A decline in gas prices of 26 percent or $.63/MCF
and in oil prices of 42 percent or $7.56/BBL had a significant impact on
partnership performance. Also, current period oil and gas production declined 52
percent and 11 percent, respectively, when compared to the same period in 1997,
further contributing to decreased revenues. The partnership's sale of several
properties in the fourth quarter of 1997 had an impact on 1998 partnership
production volumes.
Associated depreciation expense increased 2 percent or $1,777 in 1998
compared to the first six months of 1997.
During 1998, partnership revenues and costs will be shared between the
limited partners and general partners in a 90:10 ratio.
