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


Second Quarter 1995 Compared to Second Quarter 1996

Oil and gas sales for the  second  quarter  increased  to  $43,946  in 1996 from
$25,190  in 1995.  This  represents  an  increase  of $18,756  (74%).  Oil sales
increased  by $1,152  (6%).  A 33%  increase  in the  average  oil  sales  price
increased sales by $5,447.  This increase was partially offset by a 21% decrease
in oil production. Gas sales increased by $17,604 (402%). A 492% increase in the
average gas sales price increased sales by $18,268.  This increase was partially
offset by a 15%  decrease in gas  production.  The increase in average oil sales
price  corresponds with higher prices in the overall market for the sale of oil.
The decrease in oil  production  was primarily the result of natural  production
declines,  which were  especially  pronounced on the Brighton  acquisition.  The
decrease in gas production was primarily due to natural production declines. The
increase in the average gas sales price was  primarily a result of higher prices
in the overall  market for the sale of gas  coupled  with  relatively  lower net
profits royalty paid on the Lake Decade acquisition, which incurred higher lease
operating expenses in 1996.

Lease operating  expenses increased to $18,029 in 1996 from $12,117 in 1995. The
increase of $5,912 (49%) is primarily due to higher  operating costs at the Lake
Decade acquisition in 1996.

Depreciation and depletion  expense decreased to $6,924 in the second quarter of
1996 from $9,545 in the second  quarter of 1995.  This  represents a decrease of
$2,621 (27%). The changes in production,  noted above,  reduced depreciation and
depletion  expense by $1,754.  An 11%  decrease in the  depletion  rate  reduced
depreciation and depletion  expense by an additional $867. The rate decrease was
primarily due to the lower  property basis  resulting from the  recognition of a
$538,207 impairment of property in the first quarter of 1996.

General and administrative expenses decreased to $4,454 in the second quarter of
1996 from $5,294 in the second  quarter of 1995.  This decrease of $840 (16%) is
primarily  due to less  staff  time  being  required  to  manage  the  Company's
operations.

First Six Months in 1995 Compared to First Six Months in 1996

Oil and gas sales for the first six  months  increased  to  $82,575 in 1996 from
$68,425  in 1995.  This  represents  an  increase  of $14,150  (21%).  Oil sales
decreased by $5,434  (12%).  A 23% decrease in oil  production  reduced sales by
$10,665. This decrease was partially offset by a 14% increase in the average oil
sales  price.  Gas sales  increased  by $19,584  (91%).  A 155%  increase in the
average gas sales price increased sales by $24,935.  This increase was partially
offset by a 25%  decrease in gas  production.  The increase in average oil sales
price  corresponds with higher prices in the overall market for the sale of oil.
The decrease in oil  production  was primarily the result of natural  production
declines,  which were  especially  pronounced on the Brighton  acquisition.  The
decrease in gas  production  was primarily due to natural  production  declines,
which were especially pronounced on the Lake Decade acquisition. The increase in

average gas sales price was  primarily a result of higher  prices in the overall
market for the sale of gas coupled  with  relatively  lower net profits  royalty
paid on the Lake Decade  acquisition,  which  incurred  higher  lease  operating
expenses in 1996.

Lease  operating  expenses  decreased to $32,248 in the first six months of 1996
from  $34,343 in the first six months of 1995.  The  decrease  of $2,095 (6%) is
primarily due to the changes in production, noted above.

Depreciation and depletion  expense decreased to $15,395 in the first six months
of 1996 from $22,924 in the first six months of 1995. This represents a decrease
of $7,529 (33%). The changes in production,  noted above,  reduced  depreciation
and depletion  expense by $5,403.  A 12% decrease in the depletion  rate reduced
depreciation and depletion  expense by an additional  $2,126.  The rate decrease
was primarily due to the lower property basis  resulting from the recognition of
a $538,207 impairment of property 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.  In the first  quarter of
1996,  the Company  recognized a non-cash  impairment  provision of $538,207 for
certain oil and gas properties due to market conditions and reserve revisions on
the Lake Decade acquisition,  which indicated that the carrying amounts were not
fully recoverable.

General and administrative  expenses decreased to $9,280 in the first six months
of 1996 from $9,924 in the first six months of 1995.  This decrease of $644 (6%)
is  primarily  due to less  staff time being  required  to manage the  Company's
operations.

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  after the 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  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.  Future periodic  distributions will
be made once sufficient net revenues are accumulated.

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