Second Quarter 1995 Compared to Second Quarter 1996

Oil and gas sales for the  second  quarter  decreased  to  $82,793  in 1996 from
$92,090 in 1995. This represents a decrease of $9,297 (10%). Oil sales decreased
by $212 (1%). A 17% decrease in oil  production  reduced sales by $10,069.  This
decrease was partially  offset by a 21% increase in the average oil sales price.
Gas sales  decreased by $9,085 (26%). A 32% decrease in gas  production  reduced
sales by $11,132.  This  decrease was  partially  offset by a 9% increase in the
average gas sales price. The decrease in oil production was primarily the result
of natural production declines. The decrease in gas production was primarily due
to the sale of the Nunley Ranch acquisition,  effective January 1, 1996, and the
shut-in  of  production  from the  Binger  acquisition  to  perform a  workover,
together with natural production  declines.  The changes in average sales prices
correspond with changes in the overall market for the sale of oil and gas.

Lease operating expenses increased to $60,034 in the second quarter of 1996 from
$38,240 in the second  quarter of 1995. The increase of $21,794 is primarily due
to the conversion of a well in the Binger acquisition to a gas injection well.

Depreciation and depletion expense decreased to $17,009 in the second quarter of
1996 from $37,186 in the second quarter of 1995.  This  represents a decrease of
$20,177 (54%). The changes in production,  noted above, reduced depreciation and
depletion  expense by $9,000.  A 33%  decrease  in the  depletion  rate  reduced
depreciation and depletion  expense by an additional $11,177.  The rate decrease
was primarily due to the lower property basis  resulting from the recognition of
an impairment of property of $73,979 in the first quarter of 1996.

General and administrative expenses increased to $9,480 in the second quarter of
1996 from $8,527 in 1995.  This  increase of $953 (11%) 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 and gas sales for the first six months  decreased  to  $171,068 in 1996 from
$191,369  in 1995.  This  represents  a decrease  of  $20,301 or 11%.  Oil sales
increased  by $2,951  (3%).  A 14%  increase  in the  average  oil  sales  price
increased sales by $14,569. This increase was partially offset by a 10% decrease
in oil  production.  Gas sales decreased by $23,252 (30%). A 37% decrease in gas
production  increased sales by $22,585.  This increase was partially offset by a
21% decrease in the average gas sales price.  The decrease in oil production was
primarily  the  result of  natural  production  declines.  The  decrease  in gas
production  was  primarily  due to the  sale of the  Nunley  Ranch  acquisition,
effective  January  1,  1996,  and the  shut-in  of  production  from the Binger
acquisition to perform a workover,  together with natural  production  declines.
The  changes in average  sales  prices  correspond  with  changes in the overall
market for the sale of oil and gas.

Lease operating  expenses  increased to $101,856 in the first six months of 1996
from $85,997 in the first six months of 1995.  The increase of $15,859  (18%) is
primarily  due to the  conversion of a well in the Binger  acquisition  to a gas
injection well.

Depreciation and depletion  expense decreased to $35,194 in the first six months
of 1996 from $74,245 in the first six months of 1995. This represents a decrease
of $45,327 (56%). The changes in production,  noted above,  reduced depreciation
and depletion  expense by $20,953.  A 41% decrease in the depletion rate reduced
depreciation and depletion expense by an additional  $24,374.  The rate decrease
was primarily due to the lower property basis  resulting from the recognition of
an impairment of property of $73,979 in the first quarter of 1996.

Effective  January 1, 1996,  the Company  sold its  interest in the Nunley Ranch
acquisition for $1,066. The Company recognized a gain of $1,066 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.  In the first  quarter of
1996,  the Company  recognized  a non-cash  impairment  provision of $73,979 for
certain  oil and gas  properties  due to market  indications  that the  carrying
amounts were not fully recoverable.

General and administrative expenses increased to $20,738 in the first six months
of 1996 from $20,532 in 1995.  This  increase of $206 (1%) is  primarily  due to
more 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.  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 discontinued the payment of distributions during 1995. In July 1995,
the  Company   reinstated   distributions  to  its  limited   partners.   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.

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.
