     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 $142,465 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 Operations.


Third Quarter 1995 Compared to Third Quarter 1996

Oil and gas  sales for the  third  quarter  decreased  to  $30,316  in 1996 from
$36,547 in 1995. This represents a decrease of $6,231 (17%). Oil sales decreased
by $9,542 (49%). A 60% decrease in oil production reduced sales by $11,729. This
decrease was partially  offset by a 28% increase in the average oil sales price.
Gas sales  increased  by $3,311  (19%).  A 37% increase in the average gas sales
price  increased  sales by $5,537.  This increase was partially  offset by a 13%
decrease in the gas  production.  The increases in the average oil and gas sales
prices  correspond  with  changes in the overall  market for the sale of oil and
gas. The decreases in oil and gas  production  were primarily due to the sale of
the Credo  acquisition  in the  first  quarter  of 1996,  coupled  with  natural
production  declines  which were  especially  pronounced  on the  Barnes  Estate
acquisition.

Lease operating  expenses  decreased to $9,216 in 1996 from $17,055 in 1995. The
decrease of $7,839 (46%) is primarily  due to the changes in  production,  noted
above,  coupled with costs incurred on the Credo  acquisition to repair a casing
leak in the third quarter of 1995.

Depreciation and depletion  expense  decreased to $1,590 in the third quarter of
1996 from $23,243 in the third  quarter of 1995.  This  represents a decrease of
$21,653.  The changes in  production,  noted  above,  reduced  depreciation  and
depletion  expense by $7,436.  A 90%  decrease  in the  depletion  rate  reduced
depreciation and depletion expense by an additional $14,217. The decrease in the
depletion rate was primarily due to the lower property basis  resulting from the
recognition of a $142,465 impairment of property in the first quarter of 1996.

General and  administrative  expenses decreased to $4,106 in 1996 from $6,294 in
1995.  This decrease of $2,188 (35%) is 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  decreased  to $92,253 in 1996 from
$114,530  in 1995.  This  represents  a  decrease  of $22,277  (19%).  Oil sales
decreased by $24,785 (44%).  A 50% decrease in oil  production  reduced sales by
$28,473. This decrease was partially offset by a 14% increase in the average oil
sales price.  Gas sales  increased by $2,508 (4%). A 30% increase in the average
gas sales price increased sales by $13,819.  This increase was partially  offset
by a 50%  decrease in gas  production.  The changes in the average  sales prices
correspond  with changes in the overall  market for the sale of oil and gas. The
decreases in oil and gas production  were primarily due to the sale of the Credo
acquisition  in the first  quarter  of 1996,  coupled  with  natural  production
declines which were especially pronounced on the Barnes Estate acquisition.

Lease operating  expenses for the first nine months decreased to $30,209 in 1996
from  $65,594 in 1995.  The decrease of $35,385  (54%) is  primarily  due to the
declines in  production,  noted above,  coupled with costs incurred on the Credo
acquisition to repair a casing leak in 1995.

Depreciation and depletion  expense decreased to $5,891 in the first nine months
of 1996  from  $64,957  in the first  nine  months of 1995.  This  represents  a
decrease of $59,066  (91%).  The changes in  production,  noted  above,  reduced
depreciation and depletion expense by $19,857.  An 87% decrease in the depletion
rate reduced  depreciation and depletion expense by an additional  $39,209.  The
decrease in the depletion  rate was primarily  due to the lower  property  basis
resulting from the recognition of a $142,465 impairment of property in the first
quarter of 1996.

Effective  February  1,  1996,  the  Company  sold  its  interest  in the  Credo
acquisition for $29,925. The Company recognized a gain of $1,868 on the sale.

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 $142,465 for certain
oil and gas properties due to market  indications that the carrying amounts were
not fully recoverable.

On April 2, 1996, the Company settled a property  interest dispute on the Barnes
Estate acquisition.  In the settlement,  the Company agreed to pay $5,000 to the
plaintiff and convey 0.20%  overriding  royalty interest in the Barnes Estate #1
and #2 wells.  Such conveyance  should not have a material impact on the current
or future revenues of the Company.

General and administrative expenses decreased to $14,793 in 1996 from $27,019 in
1995.  This  decrease of $12,226 (45%) is primarily due to $6,122 of legal costs
incurred in the second  quarter of 1995 for a property  interest  dispute on the
Barnes Estate acquisition, coupled with less staff time being required to manage
the Company's operations.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY


The  Company's  cash  flow is a direct  result  of the  amount  of net  proceeds
realized  from  the sale of oil and gas  production  after  payment  of its debt
obligations.  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
remaining  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.

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.  Future periodic  distributions  will be made
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.
