     Accounting  Standard  ("SFAS") No. 121,  "Accounting  for the Impairment of
     Long-Lived  Assets  and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be  Disposed  Of," which
     requires  certain assets to be reviewed for impairment  whenever  events or
     circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Prior to
     this pronouncement,  the Company assessed properties on an aggregate basis.
     Upon  adoption of SFAS 121, the Company  began  assessing  properties on an
     individual  basis,  wherein  total  capitalized  costs may not  exceed  the
     property's  fair market  value.  The fair market value of each property was
     determined by H. J. Gruy and  Associates,  ("Gruy").  To determine the fair
     market value, Gruy estimated each property's oil and gas reserves,  applied
     certain  assumptions  regarding price and cost  escalations,  applied a 10%
     discount factor for time and certain discount  factors for risk,  location,
     type   of   ownership   interest,   category   of   reserves,   operational
     characteristics,  and other  factors.  In the first  quarter  of 1996,  the
     Company recognized a non-cash impairment  provision of $147,948 for certain
     oil and gas properties due to market  indications that the carrying amounts
     were not fully recoverable.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.


Third Quarter 1995 Compared to Third Quarter 1996

Oil and gas  sales for the  third  quarter  increased  to  $90,285  in 1996 from
$85,160 in 1995. This represents an increase of $5,125 (6%). Oil sales decreased
by $488 (1%) A 28% decrease in oil  production  reduced  sales by $20,822.  This
decrease was partially  offset by a 38% increase in the average oil sales price.
Gas sales  increased  by $5,202  (50%).  A 55% increase in the average gas sales
price  increased  sales by $5,503.  This increase was  partially  offset by a 3%
decrease in gas production.  The changes in average sales prices correspond with
changes in the overall market for the sale of oil and gas. The lower oil and gas
production  was  primarily the result of the sale of the Kidd well in the Enexco
acquisition, effective April 1, 1996, coupled with natural production declines.

Lease operating  expenses decreased to $45,977 in 1996 from $53,548 in 1995. The
decrease of $7,571  (14%) is  primarily  due to workover  costs  incurred on the
Hightower and Corkscrew acquisitions in 1995.

Depreciation and depletion  expense decreased to $16,472 in the third quarter of
1996 from $27,814 in the third  quarter of 1995.  This  represents a decrease of
$11,342  (41%). A 22% decrease in the depletion  rate reduced  depreciation  and
depletion  expense by $4,679.  The changes in  production,  noted above  reduced
depreciation and depletion  expense by an additional  $6,663.  The rate decrease
was primarily due to the lower property basis  resulting from the recognition of
an impairment of property for $147,948 in the first quarter of 1996.

Effective  August 1, 1996 the Company  sold its  interest in the Spider Lake 3-2
well for $1,606. The Company recognized a gain of $1,606 from the sale.

General and administrative  expenses decreased to $8,929 in the third quarter of
1996 from $10,319 in the third quarter of 1995. This decrease of $1,390 (13%) is
primarily  due to less  staff  time  being  required  to  manage  the  Company's
operations in 1996.

First Nine Months in 1995 Compared to First Nine Months in 1996

Oil and gas sales for the first nine months  increased  to $283,979 in 1996 from
$274,569  in 1995.  This  represents  an  increase  of  $9,410  (3%).  Oil sales
decreased by $620. A 14% decrease in oil  production  reduced  sales by $33,467.
This  decrease was  partially  offset by a 16% increase in the average oil sales
price.  Gas sales  increased by $9,619 (25%).  A 38% increase in the average gas
sales price increased sales by $13,451.  This increase was partially offset by a
10% decrease in gas production.  The changes in average sales prices  correspond
with  changes in the overall  market for the sale of oil and gas.  The lower oil
production was primarily the result of natural  production  declines,  partially
offset by  production  from the  Corkscrew  acquisition  which had been  shut-in
during the second quarter of 1995 for rod repairs.  The lower gas production was
primarily  the  result of the sale of the Kidd well in the  Enexco  acquisition,
effective April 1, 1996, coupled with natural production declines.

Lease operating  expenses decreased to $146,170 in the first nine months of 1996
from  $148,256 in the first nine months of 1995.  The decrease of $2,086 (1%) is
primarily due to the changes in production,  as noted above, partially offset by
road repair expenses incurred on the Corkscrew  acquisition in the first quarter
of 1996.

Depreciation and depletion expense decreased to $45,831 in the first nine months
of 1996  from  $80,627  in the first  nine  months of 1995.  This  represents  a
decrease of $34,796  (43%).  The changes in  production,  noted  above,  reduced
depreciation and depletion  expense by $10,795.  A 34% decrease in the depletion
rate reduced  depreciation and depletion expense by an additional  $24,001.  The
rate decrease was primarily due to the lower property  basis  resulting from the
recognition  of an  impairment  of property for $147,948 in the first quarter of
1996.

The  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board has issued  Statement  of Financial
Accounting  Standard  ("SFAS")  No.  121,  "Accounting  for  the  Impairment  of
Long-Lived  Assets and for Long- Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," which requires
certain assets to be reviewed for impairment  whenever  events or  circumstances
indicate  the   carrying   amount  may  not  be   recoverable.   Prior  to  this
pronouncement,  the Company  assessed  properties  on an aggregate  basis.  Upon
adoption of SFAS 121, the Company  began  assessing  properties on an individual
basis, wherein total capitalized costs may not exceed the property's fair market
value.  The fair market value of each property was  determined by H. J. Gruy and
Associates,  ("Gruy").  To determine the fair market value,  Gruy estimated each
property's oil and gas reserves, applied certain assumptions regarding price and
cost  escalations,  applied a 10% discount factor for time and certain  discount
factors for risk,  location,  type of ownership interest,  category of reserves,
operational  characteristics,  and other factors.  In the first quarter of 1996,
the Company recognized a non-cash  impairment  provision of $147,948 for certain
oil and gas properties due to market  indications that the carrying amounts were
not fully recoverable.

Effective  April 1, 1996,  the Company sold its interest in the Kidd well in the
Enexco  acquisition for $17,920.  The Company recognized a $17,920 gain from the
sale.  Effective  June 1, 1996, the Company sold its interest in the Harper well
in the RIC  acquisition  for $15,572.  The Company  recognized a gain of $13,718
from the sale.  Effective  August 1, 1996 the Company  sold its  interest in the
Spider Lake 3-2 well for $1,606.  The Company  recognized  a gain of $1,606 from
the sale.

General  and  administrative  expenses  decreased  to  $32,095 in the first nine
months  1996 from  $34,866 in the first nine  months of 1995.  This  decrease of
$2,771  (8%) is  primarily  due to less staff time being  required to manage the
Company's operations in 1996.


CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

The Company's cash flow from  operations is a direct result of the amount of net
proceeds  realized  from the sale of oil and gas  production.  Accordingly,  the
changes in cash flow from 1995 to 1996 are  primarily  due to the changes in oil
and  gas  sales  described  above.  It is the  general  partner's  intention  to
distribute  substantially  all of  the  Company's  available  cash  flow  to the
Company's partners.  The Company's "available cash flow" is essentially equal to
the net amount of cash provided by operating activities.

                                       I-6

<PAGE>

The  Company  discontinued  the payment of  distributions  during  1995.  Future
distributions  are dependent  upon,  among other  things,  an increase in prices
received for oil and gas. The Company will  continue to recover its reserves and
distribute  to the limited  partners the net proceeds  realized form the sale of
oil and gas  production.  Distribution  amounts  are  subject  to  change if net
revenues  are  greater or less than  expected.  Based on the  December  31, 1995
reserve  report  prepared by Gruy,  there  appears to be  sufficient  future net
revenues to pay all  obligations  and  expenses.  The General  Partner  does not
intend to accelerate  the  repayment of the debt beyond the Company's  cash flow
provided by  operating  activities.  The Company did make  distributions  in the
amount of $11,892 on July 31, 1996. Future periodic  distributions will continue
once sufficient net revenues are accumulated.

On August 9, 1996, the Company's  General Partner  submitted  preliminary  proxy
material  to the  Securities  Exchange  Commission  with  respect  to a proposed
consolidation  of the Company with 33 other  managed  limited  partnerships.  On
November 13, 1996, the Company submitted  amended  preliminary proxy material to
the SEC with  respect to this  consolidation.  The terms and  conditions  of the
proposed consolidation are set forth in such preliminary proxy material.

As of September 30, 1996,  the Company had no material  commitments  for capital
expenditures.  The  Company  does  not  intend  to  engage  in  any  significant
developmental drilling activity.
