1990,  with  the  offering of limited partnership interests  concluding  on
November 30, 1990, with total limited partner contributions of $5,242,000.

The  Partnership was formed to acquire interests in producing oil  and  gas
properties,  to produce and market crude oil and natural gas produced  from
such properties, and to distribute the net proceeds from operations to  the
limited  and  general partners.  Net revenues from producing  oil  and  gas
properties will not be reinvested in other revenue producing assets  except
to the extent that production facilities and wells are improved or reworked
or  where methods are employed to improve or enable more efficient recovery
of oil and gas reserves.

Increases   or   decreases   in  Partnership   revenues   and,   therefore,
distributions  to partners will depend primarily on changes in  the  prices
received  for  production,  changes in volumes of  production  sold,  lease
operating  expenses, enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities
pursuant  to farm-out arrangements, sales of properties, and the  depletion
of  wells.   Since  wells deplete over time, production  can  generally  be
expected to decline from year to year.

Well  operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease
with   production   declines;  however,  these  costs  may   not   decrease
proportionately.  Net income available for distribution to the partners  is
therefore expected to fluctuate in later years based on these factors.

Based  on  current  conditions, management does not  anticipate  performing
workovers  during  the year.  The Partnership could possibly  experience  a
normal decline of 8% to 10% per year.

Oil and Gas Properties

Oil  and  gas  properties  are accounted for at cost  under  the  full-cost
method.  Under this method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred
in  connection with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and
gas  reserves  are capitalized.  Gain or loss on the sale of  oil  and  gas
properties  is not recognized unless significant oil and gas  reserves  are
involved.

The  Partnership's policy for depreciation, depletion and  amortization  of
oil  and  gas  properties is computed under the units  of  revenue  method.
Under the units of revenue method, depreciation, depletion and amortization
is  computed  on  the  basis of current gross revenues from  production  in
relation  to future gross revenues, based on current prices, from estimated
production of proved oil and gas reserves.

Should the net capitalized costs exceed the estimated present value of  oil
and gas reserves, discounted at 10%, such excess costs would be charged  to
current  expense.  As of June 30, 2000, the net capitalized costs  did  not
exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves.

A.  General Comparison of the Quarters Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

The  following  table  provides certain information  regarding  performance
factors for the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999:

Revenues

The  Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased to $100,989 from  $64,687
for the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase of
56%.   The principal factors affecting the comparison of the quarters ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999 are as follows:

1.  The  average  price  for a barrel of oil received  by  the  Partnership
    increased  during the quarter ended June 30, 2000 as  compared  to  the
    quarter ended June 30, 1999 by 86%, or $12.97 per barrel, resulting  in
    an   increase  of  approximately  $49,300  in  revenues.    Oil   sales
    represented  86%  of total oil and gas sales during the  quarter  ended
    June 30, 2000 and 88% during the quarter ended June 30, 1999.

    The  average  price  for  an  mcf of gas received  by  the  Partnership
    increased  during the same period by 120%, or $2.36 per mcf,  resulting
    in an increase of approximately $9,200 in revenues.

    The  total  increase in revenues due to the change in  prices  received
    from oil and gas production is approximately $58,500.  The market price
    for  oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the past decade,  and
    management  expects a certain amount of volatility to continue  in  the
    foreseeable future.

<PAGE>
2.  Oil  production decreased approximately 700 barrels or 18%  during  the
    quarter  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the quarter ended June  30,
    1999, resulting in a decrease of approximately $19,600 in revenues.

    Gas  production decreased approximately 600 mcf or 15% during the  same
    period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $2,600 in revenues.

    The  total  decrease  in revenues due to the change  in  production  is
    approximately $22,200.  The decrease is primarily due to sharp  natural
    decline.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses increased to $75,981 from $70,396 for the quarters
ended  June  30,  2000  and 1999, respectively, an  increase  of  8%.   The
increase is the result of higher lease operating costs, partially offset by
a decrease in general and administrative expense and depletion expense.

1.  Lease  operating  costs  and  production  taxes  were  17%  higher,  or
    approximately  $7,900 more during the quarter ended June  30,  2000  as
    compared  to  the  quarter ended June 30, 1999. The increase  in  lease
    operating  costs  and production taxes is primarily  a  result  of  the
    higher  oil and gas prices received by the Partnership.  Higher  prices
    have  made  it  possible for the Partnership to  perform  needed  major
    repairs  and  maintenance.  Since production taxes are based  on  gross
    revenues,  the  increase in oil and gas prices have directly  increased
    production taxes.

2.  General and administrative costs consist of independent accounting  and
    engineering  fees,  computer services, postage,  and  Managing  General
    Partner personnel costs.  General and administrative costs decreased 4%
    or  approximately  $800  during the quarter  ended  June  30,  2000  as
    compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1999.

3.  Depletion  expense decreased to $1,000 for the quarter ended  June  30,
    2000  from  $2,500  for  the same period in 1999.   This  represents  a
    decrease  of 60%.  Depletion is calculated using the units  of  revenue
    method  of  amortization based on a percentage of current period  gross
    revenues  to  total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated  by
    the  Partnership's  independent  petroleum  consultants.   Contributing
    factors  to  the  decline in depletion expense between the  comparative
    periods were the increase in the price of oil and gas used to determine
    the Partnership's reserves for July 1, 2000 as compared to 1999.

B.   General  Comparison of the Six Month Periods Ended June 30,  2000  and
1999

The  following  table  provides certain information  regarding  performance
factors for the six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999:

                                                Six Months

Revenues

The  Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased to $204,343 from $113,704
for  the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase
of  80%.  The principal factors affecting the comparison of the six  months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 are as follows:

1.  The  average  price  for a barrel of oil received  by  the  Partnership
    increased during the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to  the
    six months ended June 30, 1999 by 119%, or $14.91 per barrel, resulting
    in  an  increase  of  approximately $117,800 in  revenues.   Oil  sales
    represented 87% of total oil and gas sales during the six months  ended
    June  30, 2000 as compared to 87% during the six months ended June  30,
    1999.

    The  average  price  for  an  mcf of gas received  by  the  Partnership
    increased  during the same period by 107%, or $1.92 per mcf,  resulting
    in  an  increase  of approximately $15,700 in income from  net  profits
    interests.

    The  total  increase in revenues due to the change in  prices  received
    from  oil  and  gas production is approximately $133,500.   The  market
    price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the past decade,
    and  management expects a certain amount of volatility to  continue  in
    the foreseeable future.

<PAGE>
2.  Oil  production decreased approximately 1,400 barrels or 18% during the
    six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the six months ended June
    30, 1999, resulting in a decrease of approximately $38,400 in revenues.

    Gas production decreased approximately 1,200 mcf or 15% during the same
    period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $4,500 in revenues.

    The  total  decrease  in revenues due to the change  in  production  is
    approximately $42,900.  The decrease is primarily due to sharp  natural
    decline.

Costs and Expenses

Total  costs and expenses increased to $152,469 from $148,491 for  the  six
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase of 3%.   The
increase is the result of higher lease operating cost, partially offset  by
a decrease in general and administrative expense and depletion expense.

1.  Lease  operating  costs  and  production  taxes  were  8%  higher,   or
    approximately $8,000 more during the six months ended June 30, 2000  as
    compared to the six months ended June 30, 1999.

2.  General and administrative costs consist of independent accounting  and
    engineering  fees,  computer services, postage,  and  Managing  General
    Partner personnel costs.  General and administrative costs decreased 3%
    or  approximately $1,500 during the six months ended June 30,  2000  as
    compared to the six months ended June 30, 1999.

3.  Depletion expense decreased to $4,000 for the six months ended June 30,
    2000  from  $6,500  for  the same period in 1999.   This  represents  a
    decrease  of 38%.  Depletion is calculated using the units  of  revenue
    method  of  amortization based on a percentage of current period  gross
    revenues  to  total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated  by
    the  Partnership's  independent  petroleum  consultants.   Contributing
    factors  to  the  decline in depletion expense between the  comparative
    periods were the increase in the price of oil and gas used to determine
    the Partnership's reserves for July 1, 2000 as compared to 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  primary source of cash is from operations, the receipt of income  from
interests in oil and gas properties.  The Partnership knows of no  material
change, nor does it anticipate any such change.

Cash  flows  provided by (used in) operating activities were  approximately
$22,800  in the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to approximately
$(57,200) in the six months ended June 30, 1999.

Cash  flows  (used in) provided by investing activities were  approximately
$(5,500) in the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to approximately
$43,500  in the six months ended June 30, 1999.  The principle use  of  the
2000  cash flow from investing activities was the addition to oil  and  gas
properties.

There  were  no cash flows used in financing activities in the  six  months
ended   June   2000.   Cash  flows  used  in  financing   activities   were
approximately $(300) in the six months ended June 30, 1999.

There  were no distributions during the six months ended June 30, 2000  and
1999.

Since  inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash  distributions
of  $2,693,706  have  been made to the partners.   As  of  June  30,  2000,
$2,474,805 or $236.06 per limited partner unit has been distributed to  the
limited partners, representing a 47% return of the capital contributed.

As  of  June 30, 2000, the Partnership had approximately $18,500 in working
capital.   The  Managing  General Partner knows of no  unusual  contractual
commitments  and  believes  the  revenues  generated  from  operations  are
adequate to meet the needs of the Partnership.

<PAGE>
Liquidity - Managing General Partner

The  Managing General Partner has a highly leveraged capital structure with
over  $50.1  million principal due by December 31, 2000 and  $15.3  million
interest   payments  due  within  the  next  twelve  months  on  its   debt
obligations.  The Managing General Partner is currently in the  process  of
renegotiating  the  terms  of its various obligations  with  its  creditors
and/or  attempting to seek new lenders or equity investors.   Additionally,
the Managing General Partner would consider disposing of certain assets  in
order to meet its obligations.

There  can  be  no  assurance  that  the Managing  General  Partner's  debt
restructuring efforts will be successful or that the lenders will agree  to
a   course   of  action  consistent  with  the  Managing  General  Partners
requirements  in restructuring the obligations.  Even if such agreement  is
reached,  it  may  require approval of additional  lenders,  which  is  not
assured.  Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the sales  of  assets
can  be  successfully  accomplished on terms  acceptable  to  the  Managing
General   Partner.   Under  current  circumstances,  the  Managing  General
Partner's  ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its  ability
to  (1)  successfully  restructure  its obligations  or  obtain  additional
financing  as  may  be  required, (2) maintain  compliance  with  all  debt
covenants, (3) generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations  on  a
timely  basis, and (4) achieve satisfactory levels of future earnings.   If
the  Managing  General Partner is unsuccessful in its efforts,  it  may  be
unable to meet its obligations making it necessary to undertake such  other
actions as may be appropriate to preserve asset values.
