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

Results of Operations

Six months ended June 30, 1998 compared with six months ended
   June 30, 1997

Revenues:

The  Partnership's  oil  and  gas  revenues  decreased  30% to  $1,113,100  from
$1,596,212  for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,  respectively.  The
decrease in revenues  resulted from lower average prices received,  offset by an
increase in production.  For the six months ended June 30, 1998,  57,385 barrels
of oil,  22,003 barrels of  natural gas liquids  ("NGLs") and  99,596 mcf of gas
were sold,  or 95,987  barrel of oil  equivalents  ("BOEs").  For the six months

                                        7

<PAGE>



ended June 30, 1997,  59,044 barrels of oil and 161,148 mcf of gas were sold, or
85,902 BOEs.

As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership began accounting for processed natural
gas   production  as  processed   natural  gas  liquids  and  dry  residue  gas.
Consequently,  separate  product volumes will not be comparable to periods prior
to September 30, 1997.  Also,  prices for gas products will not be comparable as
the price per mcf for  natural  gas for the three and six months  ended June 30,
1998 is the price received for dry residue gas and the price per mcf for natural
gas for the  three and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997 is a price for wet gas
(i.e., natural gas liquids combined with dry residue gas).

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  decreased  $6.42,  or 31%,  from
$20.40 for the six months  ended June 30,  1997 to $13.98 for the same period in
1998.  The average price received per barrel of NGLs during the six months ended
June 30, 1998 was $7.27. The average price received per mcf of gas decreased 38%
from $2.43 for the six months  ended June 30,  1997 to $1.51 for the same period
in 1998.  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, 1998.

During  most of 1997,  the  Partnership  benefitted  from  higher  oil prices as
compared to previous  years.  However,  during the fourth  quarter of 1997,  oil
prices began a downward  trend that has  continued  into 1998. On July 29, 1998,
the market  price for West Texas  intermediate  crude was $11.58 per  barrel.  A
continuation of the oil price environment  experienced  during the first half of
1998 will have an adverse  effect on the  Partnership's  revenues and  operating
cash flow and could result in additional  decreases in the carrying value of the
Partnership's oil and gas properties.

A gain on disposition of assets of $333 was received during the six months ended
June 30, 1998 from the sale of equipment on one saltwater  disposal well plugged
and abandoned in a prior year.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and expenses  increased to $1,090,080  for the six months ended June
30, 1998 as compared to  $1,083,835  for the same period in 1997, an increase of
$6,245.  The  increase  was due to an increase in  production  costs,  offset by
decreases in depletion and general and administrative expenses ("G&A").

Production  costs  were  $743,438  for the six months  ended  June 30,  1998 and
$699,620 for the same period in 1997,  resulting in a $43,818  increase,  or 6%.
The increase was due to additional well maintenance  costs,  offset by a decline
in production taxes.

G&A's  components are independent  accounting and engineering  fees and managing
general  partner  personnel  and  operating  costs.   During  this  period,  G&A
decreased, in aggregate, 28% from $51,037 for the six months ended June 30, 1997
to $36,846 for the same period in 1998.

Depletion  was  $309,796  for the six months  ended June 30,  1998  compared  to
$333,178 for the same period in 1997.  This  represented a decrease in depletion
of $23,382,  or 7%.  This decrease was primarily  attributable to 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 1997 and a reduction in oil production
of 1,659  barrels for the period ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period
in 1997, offset by a decrease in oil reserves during  the six months ended  June
30, 1998 as a result of lower commodity prices.

Three months ended June 30, 1998 compared with three months ended
   June 30, 1997

Revenues:

The Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  decreased 23% to $551,596 from $714,251
for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The decrease in
revenues  resulted from lower average prices received,  offset by an increase in
production.  For the three months ended June 30,  1998,  28,992  barrels of oil,
12,013  barrels of NGLs and 49,788 mcf of gas were sold, or 49,303 BOEs. For the
three months ended June 30,  1997,  28,608  barrels of oil and 80,021 mcf of gas
were sold, or 41,945 BOEs.

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  decreased  $5.51,  or 29%,  from
$18.75 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $13.24 for the same period in
1998.  The average  price  received  per barrel of NGLs during the three  months
ended  June 30,  1998 was  $7.62.  The  average  price  received  per mcf of gas
decreased 31% from $2.22 during the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $1.53 in
1998.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and  expenses  increased to $549,797 for the three months ended June
30, 1998 as compared  to  $542,314  for the same period in 1997,  an increase of
$7,483.  This increase was due to increases in production  costs and  depletion,
offset by a decrease in G&A.

Production  costs were  $364,847  for the three  months  ended June 30, 1998 and
$354,861 for the same period in 1997 resulting in a $9,986 increase, or 3%. This
increase was the result of additional well maintenance costs, offset by declines
in workover costs and production taxes.

G&A's  components are independent  accounting and engineering  fees and managing
general  partner  personnel  and  operating  costs.   During  this  period,  G&A
decreased,  in  aggregate,  18% from $22,202 for the three months ended June 30,
1997 to $18,185 for the same period in 1998.

Depletion  was $166,765  for the three  months  ended June 30, 1998  compared to
$165,251 for the same period in 1997. This  represented an increase in depletion
of $1,514.  This  increase  was  primarily  attributable  to a  decrease  in oil
reserves  during  the  three  months  ended  June 30,  1998 as a result of lower

                                        9

commodity prices and an increase in oil production of 384 barrels for the period
ended June 30, 1998  compared to the same period in 1997,  offset by a reduction
in the  Partnership's net depletable basis from charges taken in accordance with
SFAS 121 during the fourth quarter of 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash  provided by operating  activities  decreased  $679,153  during the six
months  ended  June 30,  1998 from the same  period  ended June 30,  1997.  This
decrease  resulted from a decline in oil and gas sales  receipts and an increase
in production costs paid, offset by a decrease in G&A expenses paid.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

The Partnership's  principal investing  activities for the six months ended June
30, 1998 and 1997  included  expenditures  related to equipment  replacement  on
various oil and gas properties.

Proceeds from asset  dispositions  of $333 were  received  during the six months
ended June 30, 1998 from the sale of equipment on one  saltwater  disposal  well
abandoned in a prior year.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Cash  was   sufficient  for  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  1998  to  cover
distributions to the partners of $478,621 of which $4,787 was distributed to the
managing  general  partner and  $473,834 to the limited  partners.  For the same
period  ended  June 30,  1997,  cash was  sufficient  for  distributions  to the
partners of $1,100,596 of which $11,006 was distributed to the managing  general
partner and $1,089,590 to the limited partners.

It is expected  that future net cash  provided by operating  activities  will be
sufficient for any capital expenditures and any distributions. As the production
from the properties declines, distributions are also expected to decrease.

Information systems for the year 2000

The managing general partner will be required to modify its information  systems
in order to  accurately  process  Partnership  data  referencing  the year 2000.
Because of the importance of occurrence  dates in the oil and gas industry,  the
consequences of not pursuing these  modifications  could be very  significant to
the Partnership's ability to manage and report operating activities.  Currently,
the managing general partner plans to contract with third parties to perform the
software  programming  changes  necessary to correct any existing  deficiencies.
Such  programming  changes are  anticipated  to be completed  and tested by June
1999. The managing  general  partner will allocate a portion of the costs of the
year 2000 programming  charges to the Partnership when they are incurred,  along
with recurring general and administrative  expenses.  Although the costs are not
estimable at this time, they should not be significant to the Partnership.
