                         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, 1995 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 gas imbalance receivable and deferred revenues are
         accounted for on the entitlements method, the Partnership records its
         share of revenue, based on its entitled amount.  Any amounts over or
         under the entitled amount are recorded as an increase or decrease to
         the gas imbalance receivable or deferred revenues as applicable.

(3)      VULNERABILITY DUE TO CERTAIN CONCENTRATIONS -

                 The Company'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.

                 The Partnership extends credit 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.

      The Partnership entered into a NP/OR Agreement with its companion pension
partnership, Swift Energy Managed Pension Assets Partnership 1988-B, Ltd. in
the manner described in the notes to the financial statements in the latest
Form 10-K.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      The Partnership has completed acquisition of producing oil and gas
properties, expending all of limited partners' commitments available for
property acquisitions.

      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, 1996 (current quarter) when compared
to the quarter ended June 30, 1995 (corresponding quarter), and for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 (current period), when compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1995 (corresponding period).

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995

     Oil and gas sales increased $1,901 or 2 percent in the current quarter of
1996 when compared to the corresponding quarter in 1995, primarily due to
increased gas and oil prices.  An increase in gas prices of 60 percent or
$.87/MCF and in oil prices of 19 percent or $2.81/BBL had a significant impact
on partnership performance.  Current quarter gas and oil production decreased
33 percent and 24 percent, respectively, when compared to second quarter 1995
production volumes, partially offsetting the effect of increased gas and oil
prices.

     Associated depreciation expense decreased 25 percent or $9,752.

     The Partnership recorded an additional provision in depreciation,
depletion and amortization in the second quarter of 1995 for $26,972 when the
present value, discounted at ten percent, of estimated future net revenues from
oil and gas properties, using the guidelines of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, was below the fair market value originally paid for oil and gas
properties.  The additional provision results from the Managing General
Partner's determination that the fair market value paid for properties may or
may not coincide with reserve valuations determined according to guidelines of
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995

     Oil and gas sales increased $4,651 or 2 percent in the first six months of
1996 over the corresponding period in 1995.  An increase in gas prices of 41
percent or $.60/MCF and in oil prices of 16 percent or $2.29/BBL were major
contributing factors to the increased revenues for the period.  Also, current
period gas and oil production decreased 27 percent and 15 percent,
respectively, when compared to the corresponding period in 1995, partially
offsetting the effect of increased gas and oil prices.

     Associated depreciation expense decreased 22 percent or $18,640.

     The Partnership recorded an additional provision in depreciation,
depletion and amortization in the first six months of 1995 for $86,096 when the
present value, discounted at ten percent, of estimated future net revenues from
oil and gas properties, using the guidelines of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, was below the fair market value originally paid for oil and gas
properties.  The additional provision results from the Managing General
Partner's determination that the fair market value paid for properties may or
may not coincide with reserve valuations determined according to guidelines of
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     During 1996, partnership revenues and costs will be shared between the
limited partners and general partners in a 90:10 ratio.
