     The  interim financial information as of September 30, 2000,  and  for

Item 2.   Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition  and
        Results of Operations

General
Southwest  Oil  &  Gas Income Fund X-A, L.P. was organized  as  a  Delaware
limited  partnership  on  January 29, 1990. The offering  of  such  limited
partnership  interests began on May 11, 1990 as part of  a  shelf  offering
registered  under  the  name Southwest Oil & Gas  1990-91  Income  Program.
Minimum  capital requirements for the Partnership were met  on  August  15,
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.

Management does not anticipate performing workovers during the next  twelve
months.  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 September 30, 2000, the net capitalized costs  did
not exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves.

Results of Operations

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

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

                                                 Three Months

                                                ----      ----   ---------
Average price per barrel of oil            $   30.04     18.08      66%
Average price per mcf of gas               $    5.08      2.83      80%
Oil production in barrels                      3,500     3,630     (4%)

Revenues

The  Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased to $122,254 from  $77,066
for  the  quarters  ended  September 30, 2000 and  1999,  respectively,  an
increase  of  59%.  The principal factors affecting the comparison  of  the
quarters ended September 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 September 30, 2000 as  compared  to
    the  quarter  ended  September 30, 1999 by 66%, or $11.96  per  barrel,
    resulting  in  an increase of approximately $43,400 in  revenues.   Oil
    sales  represented  83% of total oil and gas sales during  the  quarter
    ended  September 30, 2000 as compared to 85% during the  quarter  ended
    September 30, 1999.

    The  average  price  for  an  mcf of gas received  by  the  Partnership
    increased during the same period by 80%, or $2.25 per mcf, resulting in
    an increase of approximately $9,100 in revenues.

    The  total  increase in revenues due to the change in  prices  received
    from oil and gas production is approximately $52,500.  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 130 barrels or  4%  during  the
   quarter  ended  September  30, 2000 as compared  to  the  quarter  ended
   September  30, 1999, resulting in a decrease of approximately $3,900  in
   revenues.

    Gas  production  increased approximately 50 mcf or 1% during  the  same
    period, resulting in an increase of approximately $300 in revenues.

    The  total  decrease  in revenues due to the change  in  production  is
    approximately $3,600.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses increased to $86,078 from $82,798 for the quarters
ended  September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase of  4%.   The
increase   is   the  result  of  higher  depletion  expense,  general   and
administrative  expense, partially offset by a decrease in lease  operating
costs.

1.    Lease  operating  costs  and  production  taxes  were  1%  lower,  or
   approximately $600 less during the quarter ended September 30,  2000  as
   compared to the quarter ended September 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 increased 4%
    or  approximately $800 during the quarter ended September 30,  2000  as
    compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1999.

3.  Depletion  expense  of  $3,000  was  recorded  for  the  quarter  ended
    September  30, 2000.  There was no depletion expense recorded  for  the
    quarter  ended September 30, 1999. This represents a increase of  100%.
    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.  The  increase   in
    depletion  expense  is  due to an accrual adjustment,  which  was  made
    during  the  quarter ended September 30, 1999 to adjust  for  the  over
    accrual of depletion in the first two quarters of 1999.  The rapid rise
    in  prices  during  the first three quarters of 1999  from  $14/bbl  to
    $23/bbl  and  from  $1.71/mcf to $2.38/mcf caused an adjustment  to  be
    necessary during the third quarter of 1999.

Partnership distributions                  $  26,284         -     100%
Limited partner distributions              $  26,284         -     100%
Per unit distribution to limited partners  $    2.51         -     100%
Number of limited partner units               10,484    10,484

Revenues

The  Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased to $326,596 from $190,770
for  the  nine  months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively,  an
increase  of  71%.  The principal factors affecting the comparison  of  the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 are as follows:

1.  The  average  price  for a barrel of oil received  by  the  Partnership
    increased  during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as  compared
    to  the  nine  months ended September 30, 1999 by 92%,  or  $13.42  per
    barrel, resulting in an increase of approximately $152,200 in revenues.
    Oil  sales represented 86% of total oil and gas sales during  the  nine
    months  ended  September 30, 2000 and 86% during the nine months  ended
    September 30, 1999.

    The  average  price  for  an  mcf of gas received  by  the  Partnership
    increased during the same period by 85%, or $1.79 per mcf, resulting in
    an increase of approximately $22,200 in revenues.

    The  total  increase in revenues due to the change in  prices  received
    from  oil  and  gas production is approximately $174,400.   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 1,240 barrels or 11% during the
    nine  months  ended September 30, 2000 as compared to the  nine  months
    ended  September  30,  1999, resulting in a decrease  of  approximately
    $34,600 in revenues.

    Gas  production decreased approximately 1,020 mcf or 8% during the same
    period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $4,000 in revenues.

    The  total  decrease  in revenues due to the change  in  production  is
    approximately $38,600.

Costs and Expenses

Total  costs and expenses increased to $238,546 from $231,289 for the  nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase of  3%.
The  increase  is the result of higher lease operating costs and  depletion
expense,  partially  offset  by a decrease in  general  and  administrative
expense.

1.  Lease  operating  costs  and  production  taxes  were  5%  higher,   or
    approximately  $7,400 more during the nine months ended  September  30,
    2000 as compared to the nine months ended September 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 1%
    or  approximately $600 during the nine months ended September 30,  2000
    as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

3.  Depletion  expense  increased  to $7,000  for  the  nine  months  ended
    September  30,  2000  from $6,500 for the same period  in  1999.   This
    represents an increase of 8%.  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.

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
$44,600  in  the  nine  months ended September  30,  2000  as  compared  to
approximately $(55,900) in the nine months ended September 30,  1999.   The
primary source of the 2000 cash flow from operating activities was oil  and
gas operations.

Cash  flows  (used in) provided by investing activities were  approximately
$(8,500)  in  the  nine  months ended September 30,  2000  as  compared  to
approximately  $42,200 in the nine months ended September  30,  1999.   The
principle  use  of  the 2000 cash flow from investing  activities  was  the
change in oil and gas properties.

Cash  flows (used in) financing activities were approximately $(26,500)  in
the  nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to approximately $260
provided by in the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

Total  distributions during the nine months ended September 30,  2000  were
$26,284 of which $26,284 was distributed to the limited partners.  The  per
unit  distribution  to  limited  partners  during  the  nine  months  ended
September 30, 2000 was $2.51.  There were no distributions during the  nine
months ended September 30, 1999.

The source for the 2000 distributions of $26,284 was oil and gas operations
of  approximately $44,600, partially offset by the change in  oil  and  gas
properties  of  approximately  $(8,500),  resulting  in  excess  cash   for
contingencies or subsequent distributions.

Since  inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash  distributions
of  $2,719,990 have been made to the partners.  As of September  30,  2000,
$2,501,089 or $238.56 per limited partner unit has been distributed to  the
limited partners, representing a 48% return of the capital contributed.

As  of  September  30, 2000, the Partnership had approximately  $68,500  in
working  capital.   The  Managing  General  Partner  knows  of  no  unusual
contractual commitments.


<PAGE>

Liquidity - Managing General Partner
The  Managing General Partner has a highly leveraged capital structure with
approximately, $33.8 million of cash interest and $5.9 million of principal
due  within  the  next  twelve  months.  The Managing  General  Partner  is
currently  in  the  process  of renegotiating  the  terms  of  its  various
obligations with its note holders 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  continuing
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.
