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


Second Quarter 1995 Compared to Second Quarter 1996

Oil, gas and gas plant sales for the second quarter increased to $25,274 in 1996
from  $24,684 in 1995.  This  represents  an  increase  of $590 (2%).  Oil sales
increased by $618 or 3%. A 13% increase in the average oil sales price increased
sales by $2,203.  This  increase  was  partially  offset by a 9% decrease in oil
production.  Gas sales increased by $2,747 or 79%. A 75% increase in the average
gas sales price  increased  sales by $2,668.  A 2%  increase  in gas  production
increased  sales by an  additional  $79.  Sales of plant  products  decreased by
$2,775.  A 93% decrease in the  production  of plant  products  reduced sales by
$3,039.  This  decrease was  partially  offset by a 107% increase in the average
plant product sales price.  The decrease in oil  production was primarily due to
natural  production  declines.  The increase in gas production was primarily the
result of enhanced production improvements on the Concord acquisition, partially
offset by natural  production  declines.  The lower production of plant products
was due to the  recognition  of back revenues from the Kalkaska gas plant in the
second  quarter of 1995.  The  higher  average  plant  product  sales  price was
primarily due to recognition of back revenues from the Kalkaska gas plant in the
second quarter of 1995, which had a relatively lower sales price. The changes in
the average oil sales price  correspond  with changes in the overall  market for
the sale of oil. The higher  average gas sales price was primarily the result of
relatively  higher  production  from  the  Concord  acquisition,   which  has  a
relatively  higher gas sales price,  coupled  with higher  prices in the overall
market for the sale of gas.

Lease operating  expenses increased to $4,940 in the second quarter of 1996 from
$4,767 in the second quarter of 1995. The increase of $173 (4%) is primarily due
to higher  operating  costs on the Concord  acquisition in the second quarter of
1996.

Depreciation and depletion  expense decreased to $4,813 in the second quarter of
1996 from $17,936 in the second quarter of 1995.  This  represents a decrease of
$13,123  (73%). A 62% decrease in the depletion  rate reduced  depreciation  and
depletion  expense by $7,744.  The changes in production,  noted above,  reduced
depreciation and depletion  expense by an additional  $5,379.  The rate decrease
was primarily due to the lower property basis  resulting from the recognition of
a $243,005 impairment of property in the first quarter of 1996.

General and administrative expenses increased to $4,679 in the second quarter of
1996 from $4,247 in the second  quarter of 1995.  This increase of $432 (10%) is
primarily  due to more  staff  time  being  required  to  manage  the  Company's
operations.


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

Oil,  gas and gas plant sales for the first six months  increased  to $53,679 in
1996 from $49,179 in 1995. This represents an increase of $4,500 (9%). Oil sales
increased by $3,626 or 10%. A

16%  increase in the average oil sales  price  increased  sales by $5,423.  This
increase  was  partially  offset by a 5% decrease in oil  production.  Gas sales
increased by $4,297 or 47%. A 5% increase in gas production  increased  sales by
$422.  A 41%  increase  in the average  gas sales  price  increased  sales by an
additional $3,875.  Sales of plant products decreased by $3,423. An 88% decrease
in the production of plant products  reduced sales by $3,886.  This decrease was
partially offset by a 91% increase in the average plant product sales price. The
decrease in oil production was primarily due to natural production declines. The
increase in gas  production  was  primarily  the result of  enhanced  production
improvements on the Concord acquisition,  partially offset by natural production
declines.  The lower  production of plant products was due to the recognition of
back  revenues  from the Kalkaska gas plant in the second  quarter of 1995.  The
higher  average plant product  sales price was primarily due to  recognition  of
back revenues from the Kalkaska gas plant in the second  quarter of 1995,  which
had a relatively  lower sales price.  The changes in the average oil sales price
correspond  with  changes in the overall  market for the sale of oil. The higher
average gas sales price was primarily the result of relatively higher production
from the Concord  acquisition,  which has a  relatively  higher gas sales price,
coupled with higher prices in the overall market for the sale of gas.

Lease  operating  expenses  decreased to $10,233 in the first six months of 1996
from  $13,044 in the first six months of 1995.  The  decrease of $2,811 (22%) is
primarily due to the changes in production, noted above.

Depreciation and depletion  expense decreased to $12,241 in the first six months
of 1996 from $31,707 in the first six months of 1995. This represents a decrease
of $19,466 (61%). The changes in production,  noted above,  caused  depreciation
and  depletion  expense to  decrease  by  $5,951,  while a 52%  decrease  in the
depletion  rate reduced  depreciation  and  depletion  expense by an  additional
$13,515.  The rate  decrease  was  primarily  due to the  lower  property  basis
resulting from the recognition of a $243,005 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 $243,005 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 increased to $10,659 in the first six months
of 1996 from  $9,468 in the first six months of 1995.  This  increase  of $1,191
(13%) is primarily due to more 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 will continue to recover its reserves and  distribute to the limited
partners  the net  proceeds  realized  from the sale of oil and gas  production.
Distribution  amounts are subject to change if net  revenues are greater or less
than  expected.  Nonetheless,  the general  partner  believes  the Company  will
continue  to have  sufficient  cash flow to fund  operations  and to  maintain a
regular pattern of distributions.

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.  The
terms  and  conditions  of the  proposed  consolidation  are set  forth  in such
preliminary proxy material.

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.
