                            601 JEFFERSON, SUITE 1100
                              HOUSTON, TEXAS 77002

                              INFORMATION STATEMENT

     We are furnishing this information statement to our unitholders in
connection with action taken by written consent of the holder of a majority in
interest of our units.

     On November 16, 2000, Kelley Oil Corporation, as managing general partner
and as the holder of 84% of the units, constituting a majority in interest of
the units under the partnership agreement, signed a written consent of
unitholders adopting an amendment to the partnership agreement to permit the
transfer of units among unitholders. A copy of this amendment is attached as
Annex A. This amendment will become effective on December 27, 2000 without
further action. WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY, AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO
SEND US A PROXY.

     The partnership agreement prohibits transfers of units except in very
limited circumstances. The partnership agreement provides that it may be amended
by a majority in interest of unitholders and that no meeting of unitholders is
required to adopt an amendment if the amendment is approved in writing by a
majority in interest of the unitholders. As Kelley Oil Corporation holds 84% of
the units, it may effect the amendment. Kelley Oil Corporation signed a consent
to adopt this amendment, and the amendment will become effective on December 27,
2000 without any further action.

     This information statement is being sent to you as a unitholder to inform
you of this action. This information statement is first being sent or given to
unitholders on or about November 28, 2000.

     The following table sets forth information regarding the only unitholder we
know to own beneficially more than five percent of our units. These units are
held directly.
