Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
               and Results of Operations (1)

Results of Operations

Nine months ended  September 30, 1999 compared with nine months ended  September
   30, 1998

Revenues:

The  Partnership's  oil and gas  revenues  increased  slightly to $743,102  from
$739,995 for the nine months ended  September  30, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.
The increase in revenues resulted from higher average prices received, offset by
a decrease in production.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1999,  32,346
barrels of oil, 15,069 barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and 74,270 mcf of

                                        7

gas were sold, or 59,793 barrel of oil equivalents ("BOEs"). For the nine months
ended  September 30, 1998,  37,306  barrels of oil,  16,133  barrels of NGLs and
83,394 mcf of gas were sold, or 67,338 BOEs.

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  increased  $2.04,  or 15%,  from
$13.49  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1998 to $15.53 for the same
period in 1999. The average price  received per barrel of NGLs increased  $1.44,
or 22%, from $6.60 during the nine months ended  September 30, 1998 to $8.04 for
the same period in 1999.  The average price received per mcf of gas increased 3%
from $1.56 during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $1.61 for the same
period in 1999. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely  volatile in
the past  decade,  and  management  expects a certain  amount of  volatility  to
continue in the  foreseeable  future.  The  Partnership  may therefore  sell its
future  oil and gas  production  at  average  prices  lower or higher  than that
received during the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

The volatility of commodity prices has had, and continues to have, a significant
impact on the Partnership's revenues and operating cash flow and could result in
additional  decreases to the  carrying  value of the  Partnership's  oil and gas
properties.

A gain on  disposition  of assets of $1,096 was received  during the nine months
ended  September  30, 1999 from the  disposal of oil and gas  equipment on fully
depleted wells.

Costs and Expenses:

Total  costs and  expenses  decreased  to  $597,396  for the nine  months  ended
September  30,  1999 as compared  to  $632,923  for the same  period in 1998,  a
decrease of $35,527,  or 6%. This  decrease was due to declines in depletion and
production costs,  offset by an increase in general and administrative  expenses
("G&A").

Production  costs were $368,699 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and
$397,348 for the same period in 1998,  resulting in a $28,649  decrease,  or 7%.
This  decrease was due to declines in ad valorem  taxes,  workover  costs,  well
maintenance costs and production taxes.

G&A components are  independent  accounting  and  engineering  fees and managing
general partner personnel and operating costs. During this period, G&A increased
from  $24,302 for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1998 to $55,388 for the
same period in 1999.  The increase in G&A was due to accrued 1999 tax processing
services  and  monitoring  services  as compared  to the 1998 tax  services  and
monitoring services which were paid during the first nine months of 1999.

Depletion was $173,309 for the nine months ended  September 30, 1999 compared to
$211,273  for the same period in 1998,  representing  a decrease of $37,964,  or
18%. This  decrease was the result of a  combination  of factors that included a
reduction in oil production of 4,960 barrels for the nine months ended September
30, 1999  compared to the same  period in 1998,  an increase in proved  reserves
during the period ended September 30, 1999 due to higher  commodity prices and a
reduction  in the  Partnership's  net  depletable  basis from  charges  taken in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
Of" ("SFAS 121") during the fourth quarter of 1998.

Three months ended September 30, 1999 compared with three months ended September
   30, 1998

Revenues:

The Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  increased 43% to $307,447 from $214,854
for the three  months  ended  September  30,  1999 and 1998,  respectively.  The
increase in revenues  resulted from higher average prices received,  offset by a
decrease in production.  For the three months ended  September 30, 1999,  10,758
barrels of oil, 5,048 barrels of NGLs and 24,371 mcf of gas were sold, or 19,868
BOEs.  For the three months ended  September  30, 1998,  11,289  barrels of oil,
6,127 barrels of NGLs and 27,209 mcf of gas were sold, or 21,951 BOEs.

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  increased  $6.99,  or 56%,  from
$12.53 for the three  months  ended  September  30,  1998 to $19.52 for the same
period in 1999. The average price  received per barrel of NGLs increased  $4.53,
or 80%, from $5.63 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 to $10.16 in
1999.  The average price received per mcf of gas increased 33% from $1.43 during
the three months ended September 30, 1998 to $1.90 for the same period in 1999.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and  expenses  decreased  to  $188,969  for the three  months  ended
September  30,  1999 as compared  to  $205,617  for the same  period in 1998,  a
decrease of $16,648,  or 8%. This  decrease was due to declines in depletion and
production costs, offset by an increase in G&A.

Production costs were $123,057 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and
$126,712  for the same period in 1998,  resulting in a $3,655  decrease,  or 3%.
This  decrease was due to declines in ad valorem  taxes and  workover  expenses,
offset by increases in well maintenance costs and production taxes.

During  this  period,  G&A  increased  from  $6,445 for the three  months  ended
September  30, 1998 to $26,508 for the same period in 1999.  The increase in G&A
was due to accrued  1999 tax  processing  services  and  monitoring  services as
compared to the 1998 tax services and monitoring services which were paid during
the first nine months of 1999.

Depletion was $39,404 for the three months ended  September 30, 1999 compared to
$72,460 for the same period in 1998, representing a decrease of $33,056, or 46%.
This  decrease  was  primarily  attributable  to an increase in proved  reserves
during the  period  ended  September  30,  1999 as a result of higher  commodity
prices,  a reduction in oil production of 531 barrels for the three months ended
September  30, 1999  compared to the same period in 1998 and a reduction  in the
Partnership's  net depletable  basis from charges taken in accordance  with SFAS
121 during the fourth quarter of 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash  provided by operating  activities  decreased  $59,431  during the nine
months ended  September 30, 1999 from the same period in 1998. This decrease was

                                        9

<PAGE>



primarily  the result of  declines  in oil and gas sales  receipts  of  $84,251,
offset by declines in production  costs paid of $14,774 and in G&A expenses paid
of $10,046.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

The  Partnership's  investing  activities during the nine months ended September
30, 1999 and 1998  included  expenditures  related to equipment  replacement  on
various oil and gas properties.

Proceeds from asset  dispositions of $1,096 were received during the nine months
ended  September  30, 1999 from the  disposal of oil and gas  equipment on fully
depleted wells.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Cash was  sufficient  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1999 to cover
distributions to the partners of $254,595 of which $2,546 was distributed to the
managing  general  partner and  $252,049 to the limited  partners.  For the same
period ended  September 30, 1998, cash was sufficient for  distributions  to the
partners of $371,465 of which $3,714 was  distributed  to the  managing  general
partner and $367,751 to the limited partners.

From the third  quarter of 1997 through the first  quarter of 1999,  there was a
declining  trend in oil and gas price levels.  During the first quarter of 1999,
the  Organization of Petroleum  Exporting  Countries and certain other crude oil
exporting  nations announced  reductions in their planned export volumes.  These
announcements,  together  with the  enactment of announced  reductions in export
volumes,  have had a  positive  impact on world  crude oil  prices  since  first
quarter  of 1999.  No  assurances  can be given  that the  reductions  in export
volumes or the positive  trend in oil and gas commodity  prices can be sustained
for an extended period of time.

Year 2000 Project Readiness

Historically,  many computer programs have been developed that use only the last
two digits in a date to refer to a year.  As the year 2000 nears,  the inability
of such  computer  programs and embedded  technologies  to  distinguish  between
"1900" and "2000" has given rise to the "Year 2000" problem. Theoretically, such
computer  programs and related  technology  could fail outright,  or communicate
inaccurate  data,  if not  remediated  or replaced.  With the  proliferation  of
electronic  data  interchange,  the Year 2000 problem  represents a  significant
exposure to the entire  global  community,  the full  extent of which  cannot be
accurately assessed.

In proactive  response to the Year 2000 problem,  the managing  general  partner
established  a "Year  2000"  project to  assess,  to the  extent  possible,  the
Partnership's and the managing general partner's internal Year 2000 problem;  to
take remedial  actions  necessary to minimize the Year 2000 risk exposure to the
managing  general  partner and  significant  third parties with whom it has data
interchange;  and, to test its systems and processes once remedial  actions have
been taken. The managing general partner has contracted with IBM Global Services
to perform the assessment and remedial phases of its Year 2000 project.

As of September 30, 1999, the assessment phase of the managing general partner's
Year 2000  project is  complete  and has  included,  but was not limited to, the
following procedures:

                                       10

<PAGE>



o      the identification of necessary remediation,  upgrades and/or replacement
       of existing information technology applications and systems;

o      the  assessment  of   non-information   technology  exposures,   such  as
       telecommunications  systems,  security  systems,  elevators  and  process
       control equipment;

o      the  initiation  of inquiry and  dialogue  with  significant  third party
       business partners, customers and suppliers in an effort to understand and
       assess their Year 2000  problems,  readiness and potential  impact on the
       managing general partner and its Year 2000 problem;

o      the   implementation  of  processes   designed  to  reduce  the  risk  of
       reintroduction  of Year 2000 problems into the managing general partner's
       systems and business processes; and,

o      the formulation of  contingency  plans for  mission-critical  information
       technology systems.

The managing general partner distributed Year 2000 problem inquiries to over 500
entities and has received responses to approximately 52% of the inquiries.

The remedial phase of the managing general partner's Year 2000 project is in the
final stages of  completion  as it pertains to the  remediation  of  information
technology and non-information technology applications and systems in the United
States,  Canada and  Argentina.  As of September 30, 1999, the remedial phase of
the managing general partner's Year 2000 project was approximately 98% complete,
on a world wide basis,  subject to  continuing  evaluations  of the responses to
third party  inquiries and to the testing phase results.  The remedial phase has
included the upgrade  and/or  replacement  of certain  application  and hardware
systems.  The managing  general  partner has upgraded its Artesia general ledger
accounting  systems through remedial coding and has completed the testing of the
system for Year 2000 compliance.  The remediation of non-information  technology
was 97% complete as of September  30, 1999,  and was  completed in October 1999.
The managing general partner's Year 2000 remedial actions have not delayed other
information technology projects or upgrades.

The testing  phase of the  managing  general  partner's  Year 2000 project is on
schedule.  The managing general partner completed the testing of non-information
technology  remediation in October 1999.  The testing of information  technology
remediation is scheduled to be completed by the end of November 1999.

The managing  general  partner now expects  that its total costs  related to the
Year 2000 problem will approximate  $2.9 million.  As of September 30, 1999, the
managing  general  partner's  total costs incurred on the Year 2000 problem were
$2.5 million.

The risks  associated with the Year 2000 problem are  significant.  A failure to
remedy a critical  Year 2000 problem could have a materially  adverse  affect on
the Partnership's results of operations and financial condition. The most likely
worst case scenario  which may be encountered as a result of a Year 2000 problem
could include  information and non-information  system failures,  the receipt or
transmission of erroneous  data, lost data or a combination of similar  problems
of a magnitude that cannot be accurately assessed at this time.

<PAGE>



In the  business  continuity  and  contingency  planning  phase of the  managing
general partner's Year 2000 project, contingency plans were designed to mitigate
the exposures to mission critical  information  technology systems,  such as oil
and gas sales receipts, vendor and royalty cash distributions,  debt compliance,
accounting,  and employee  compensation.  Such contingency  plans anticipate the
extensive utilization of third-party data processing services, personal computer
applications  and the  substitution  of courier  and mail  services  in place of
electronic data interchange.  Given the uncertainties regarding the scope of the
Year 2000 problem and the compliance of significant third parties,  there can be
no  assurance  that  contingency  plans  will  have  anticipated  all Year  2000
scenarios.
