GEODYNE ENERGY INCOME III LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
CONDENSED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
(Unaudited)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
-------------------
The balance sheets as of June 30, 1998, statements of operations for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, and statements of cash
flows for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 have been prepared
by Geodyne Resources, Inc., the General Partner of the Partnerships (the
"General Partner"), without audit. In the opinion of management the
financial statements referred to above include all necessary adjustments,
consisting of normal recurring adjustments, to present fairly the
financial position at June 30, 1998, the results of operations for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, and the cash flows for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.
Information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying interim
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Partnerships'
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 1997. The
results of operations for the period ended June 30, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The Limited Partners' net income or loss per unit is based upon each $100
initial capital contribution.
OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES
----------------------
The Partnerships follow the successful efforts method of accounting for
their oil and gas properties. Under the successful efforts method, the
Partnerships capitalize all property acquisition costs and development
costs incurred in connection with the further development of oil and gas
reserves. Property acquisition costs include costs incurred by the
Partnerships or the General Partner to acquire producing properties,
including related title insurance or examination costs, commissions,
engineering, legal and accounting fees, and similar costs directly related
to the acquisitions, plus an allocated portion, of the General Partner's
property screening costs. The acquisition cost to the Partnerships of
properties acquired by the General Partner is adjusted to reflect the net
cash results of operations, including interest incurred to finance the
30
acquisition, for the period of time the properties are held by the General
Partner prior to their transfer to the Partnerships. Leasehold impairment
is recognized based upon an individual property assessment and exploratory
experience. Upon discovery of commercial reserves, leasehold costs are
transferred to producing properties.
Depletion of the costs of producing oil and gas properties, amortization
of related intangible drilling and development costs, and depreciation of
tangible lease and well equipment are computed on the unit-of-production
method. The Partnerships' depletion, depreciation, and amortization
includes estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs, net of estimated
salvage value.
When complete units of depreciable property are retired or sold, the asset
cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated with any gain or
loss reflected in income. When less than complete units of depreciable
property are retired or sold, the difference between asset cost and
salvage value is charged to accumulated depreciation.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long Lived Assets and Assets Held for Disposal",
requires successful efforts companies, like the Partnerships, to evaluate
the recoverability of the carrying costs of their proved oil and gas
properties at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows
that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of oil and
gas properties. With respect to the Partnerships' oil and gas properties,
this evaluation was performed for each field. SFAS No. 121, provides that
if the unamortized costs of oil and gas properties for each field exceed
the expected undiscounted future cash flows from such properties, the cost
of the properties is written down to fair value, which is determined by
using the discounted future cash flows from the properties. The
Partnerships recorded a non-cash charge against earnings (impairment
provision) during the six months ended June 30, 1997 pursuant to SFAS No.
121 as follows:
Partnership Amount
----------- -----------
III-A $1,617,006
III-B 738,122
III-C 1,696,417
III-D 932,243
III-E 2,893,438
III-F 2,884,405
III-G 1,449,404
No such charge was necessary for the six months ended June 30, 1998.
31
The risk that the Partnerships will be required to record such impairment
provisions in the future increases when oil and gas prices are depressed.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
---------------------------------
The Partnerships' partnership agreements provide for reimbursement
to the General Partner for all direct general and administrative expenses
and for the general and administrative overhead applicable to the
Partnerships based on an allocation of actual costs incurred. During the
three months ended June 30, 1998 the following payments were made to the
General Partner or its affiliates by the Partnerships:
Direct General Administrative
Partnership and Administrative Overhead
----------- ------------------- ---------------
III-A $3,834 $ 69,468
III-B 1,955 36,405
III-C 3,668 64,353
III-D 1,838 34,476
III-E 5,838 110,070
III-F 3,040 58,284
III-G 1,688 32,085
During the six months ended June 30, 1998 the following payments were made
to the General Partner or its affiliates by the Partnerships:
Direct General Administrative

III-E 46,905 220,140
III-F 21,209 116,568
III-G 11,706 64,170
Affiliates of the Partnerships operate certain of the Partnerships'
properties and their policy is to bill the Partnerships for all customary
charges and cost reimbursements associated with their activities.

words "anticipate", "believe", "expect", "plan", "intend", "estimate",
"project", "could", "may" and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect management's current
views with respect to future events and financial performance. This
Quarterly Report also includes certain information, which is, or is based
upon, estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions are
management's efforts to accurately reflect the condition and operation of
the Program.
Use of forward-looking statements and estimates and assumptions involve
risks and uncertainties which include, but are not limited to, the
volatility of oil and gas prices, the uncertainty of reserve information,
the operating risk associated with oil and gas properties (including the
risk of personal injury, death, property damage, damage to the well or
producing reservoir, environmental contamination, and other operating
risks), the prospect of changing tax and regulatory laws, the availability
and capacity of processing and transportation facilities, the general
economic climate, the supply and price of foreign imports of oil and gas,
the level of consumer product demand, and the price and availability of
alternative fuels. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties
occur or should estimates or underlying assumptions prove incorrect,
actual conditions or results may vary materially and adversely from those
stated, anticipated, believed, estimated, and otherwise indicated.
GENERAL
- -------
The Partnerships are engaged in the business of acquiring and operating
producing oil and gas properties located in the continental United States.
In general, a Partnership acquired producing properties and did not engage
in development drilling or enhanced recovery projects, except as an
incidental part of the management of the producing properties acquired.
Therefore, the economic life of each Partnership is limited to the period
of time required to fully produce its acquired oil and gas reserves. The
net proceeds from the oil and gas operations are distributed to the
Limited Partners and the General Partner in accordance with the terms of
the Partnerships' partnership agreements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
The Partnerships began operations and investors were assigned their rights
as Limited Partners, having made capital contributions in the amounts and
on the dates set forth below:
Limited
Date of Partner Capital
Partnership Activation Contributions
----------- ------------------ ---------------
III-A November 21, 1989 $26,397,600
III-B January 24, 1990 13,833,600
III-C February 27, 1990 24,453,600
III-D September 5, 1990 13,100,800
III-E December 26, 1990 41,826,600
III-F March 7, 1991 22,148,400
III-G September 20, 1991 12,192,500
In general, the amount of funds available for acquisition of producing
properties was equal to the capital contributions of the Limited Partners,
less 15% for sales commissions and organization and management fees. All
of the Partnerships have fully invested their capital contributions.
Net proceeds from the operations less necessary operating capital are
distributed to the Limited Partners on a quarterly basis. Revenues and net
proceeds of a Partnership are largely dependent upon the volumes of oil
and gas sold and the prices received for such oil and gas. While the
General Partner cannot predict future pricing trends, it believes the
working capital available as of June 30, 1998 and the net revenue
generated from future operations will provide sufficient working capital
to meet current and future obligations.
The Partnerships' Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June
30, 1998 include proceeds from the sale of oil and gas properties during
the six months ended June 30, 1998. These proceeds received during the
first quarter were included in the Partnerships' cash distributions paid
during May 1998, and the proceeds received during the second quarter will
be included in the Partnerships' cash distributions to be paid in August
1998. It is possible that the Partnerships' repurchase values and future
cash distributions could decline as a result of the disposition of these
properties. On the other hand, the General Partner believes there will be
beneficial operating efficiencies related to the Partnerships' remaining
properties. This is primarily due to the fact that the properties sold
generally bore a higher ratio of operating expenses as compared to
reserves than the Partnerships' remaining properties.
34
During the six months ended June 30, 1998 capital expenditures incurred by
the III-C and III-D Partnerships totaled $114,444 and $58,992,
respectively. The expenditures in the III-C Partnership resulted primarily
from the successful recompletion attempt of the Hefley No. 2-37 well
located in Wheeler County, Texas, and the unsuccessful recompletion
attempt of the Denson No. 1-17 well located in Garvin County, Oklahoma.
The III-C Partnership has a 17.1% and 24.3% interest, respectively, in the
Hefley No. 2-37 and Denson No. 1-17 wells. The expenditures in the III-D
Partnership resulted primarily from the successful recompletion attempt of
the Hefley No. 2-37 well mentioned above. The III-D Partnership has a
14.3% interest in the Hefley No. 2-37 well. These recompletions were
attempted in order to improve the recovery of reserves.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
GENERAL DISCUSSION
The following general discussion should be read in conjunction with the
analysis of results of operations provided below. The most important
variable affecting the Partnerships' revenues is the prices received for
the sale of oil and gas. Predicting future prices is very difficult.
Substantially all of the Partnerships' gas reserves are being sold in the
"spot market". Prices on the spot market are subject to wide seasonal and
regional pricing fluctuations due to the highly competitive nature of the
spot market. Such spot market sales are generally short-term in nature and
are dependent upon the obtaining of transportation services provided by
pipelines. In addition, crude oil prices are at or near their lowest level
in the past decade due primarily to the global surplus of crude oil.
Management is unable to predict whether future oil and gas prices will (i)
stabilize, (ii) increase, or (iii) decrease.

III-A PARTNERSHIP
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AS COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 1997.
Three Months Ended June 30,
---------------------------
1998 1997
-------- --------
Oil and gas sales $528,972 $850,857
Oil and gas production expenses $175,815 $207,500
Barrels produced 9,156 10,493
Mcf produced 186,967 274,541
Average price/Bbl $ 12.26 $ 18.88
Average price/Mcf $ 2.23 $ 2.38
As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales decreased $321,885
(37.8%) for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three
months ended June 30, 1997. Of this decrease, approximately $61,000 was
related to a decrease in the average price of oil sold and $208,000 was
related to a decrease in the volumes of gas sold. Volumes of oil and gas
sold decreased 1,337 barrels and 87,574 Mcf, respectively, for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30,
1997. The decrease in volumes of oil sold resulted primarily from normal
declines in production due to diminished reserves on two significant wells
during the three months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease in the volume of
gas sold resulted primarily from (i) normal declines in production due to
diminished reserves on several wells during the three months ended June
30, 1998, (ii) the sale of several wells during 1997, and (iii) positive
prior period volume adjustments made by a purchaser on one significant
well during the three months ended June 30, 1997. Average oil and gas
prices decreased to $12.26 per barrel and $2.23 per Mcf, respectively, for
the three months ended June 30, 1998 from $18.88 per barrel and $2.38 per
Mcf, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) decreased $31,685 (15.3%) for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997. This
decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in production taxes associated
with the decrease in oil and gas sales and a decrease in lease operating
expenses associated with the decrease in volumes of oil and gas sold.
These decreases were partially offset by (i) an increase in general repair
and maintenance expenses on several wells during the three months ended
June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997 and (ii)
positive prior period ad valorem tax adjustments on several wells during
the three months ended June 30, 1998.
36
As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to 33.2%
for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from 24.4% for the three months
ended June 30, 1997. This percentage increase was primarily due to the
decreases in the average prices of oil and gas sold during the three
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30,
1997 and the factors discussed above which partially offset the decrease
in oil and gas production expenses.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $109,570 (46.2%) for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the three months ended June 30,1997. This decrease resulted
primarily from (i) the decreases in volumes of oil and gas sold during the
three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended
June 30, 1997 and (ii) upward revisions in the estimates of remaining oil
and gas reserves at December 31, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas
sales, this expense decreased to 24.2% for the three months ended June 30,
1998 from 27.9% for the three months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage
decrease was primarily related to the upward revisions in the estimates of
remaining oil and gas reserves discussed above.
General and administrative expenses decreased $11,081 (13.1%) for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended
June 30, 1997. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in
professional fees during the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared
to the three months ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas
sales, these expenses increased to 13.9% for the three months ended June
30, 1998 from 9.9% for the three months ended June 30, 1997. This
percentage increase was primarily due to the decrease in oil and gas sales
discussed above.

Mcf produced 398,938 560,309
Average price/Bbl $ 13.46 $ 20.35
Average price/Mcf $ 2.23 $ 2.55
As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales decreased $721,428
(38.6%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six
months ended June 30, 1997. Of
37
this decrease, approximately $411,000 was related to a decrease in the
volumes of gas sold and approximately $132,000 and $128,000, respectively,
were related to decreases in the average prices of oil and gas sold.
Volumes of oil and gas sold decreased 2,510 barrels and 161,371 Mcf,
respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the
six months ended June 30, 1997. The decreases in the volumes of oil sold
resulted primarily from normal declines in production due to diminished
reserves on two significant wells during the six months ended June 30,
1998. The decreases in the volumes of gas sold resulted primarily from (i)
normal declines in production due to diminished reserves on several wells
during the six months ended June 30, 1998 and (ii) the sale of several
wells during 1997. Average oil and gas prices decreased to $13.46 per
barrel and $2.23 per Mcf, respectively, for the six months ended June 30,
1998 from $20.35 per barrel and $2.55 per Mcf, respectively, for the six
months ended June 30, 1997.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) decreased $110,636 (27.0%) for the six months ended June
30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease
resulted primarily from a decrease in both production taxes associated
with the decrease in oil and gas sales and lease operating expenses
associated with the decreases in volumes of oil and gas sold during the
six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June
30, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased
to 26.2% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 22.0% for the six
months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage increase was primarily due to
the decreases in the average prices of oil and gas sold during the six
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
1997.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $213,977 (44.1%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease resulted
primarily from (i) the decrease in volumes of oil and gas sold during the
six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June
30, 1997 and (ii) upward revisions in the estimates of remaining oil and
gas reserves at December 31, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales,
this expense decreased to 23.7% for the six months ended June 30, 1998
from 26.0% for the six months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage
decrease was primarily due to the upward revisions in the estimates of
remaining oil and gas reserves discussed above.
38
The III-A Partnership recognized a non-cash charge against earnings of
$1,617,006 during the six months ended June 30, 1997. Of this amount,
$184,644 was related to the decline in oil and gas prices used to
determine the recoverability of proved oil and gas reserves at June 30,
1997 and $1,432,362 was related to impairment of unproved properties.
These unproved properties were written off based on the General Partner's
determination that it was unlikely that such properties would be developed
due to the low oil and gas prices received over the prior several years
and provisions in the III-A Partnership's partnership agreement which
limit the level of permissible drilling activity. No similar charges were
necessary during the six months ended June 30, 1998.
General and administrative expenses remained relatively constant for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June
30, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased
to 14.4% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 8.8% for the six
months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage increase was primarily due to
the decrease in oil and gas sales discussed above.
The Limited Partners have received cash distributions through June 30,
1998 totaling $24,585,701 or 93.14% of Limited Partners' capital
contributions.

Mcf produced 278,152 268,585
Average price/Bbl $ 13.01 $ 20.11
Average price/Mcf $ 1.71 $ 1.97
As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales decreased $104,963
(15.9%) for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three
months ended June 30, 1997. Of this decrease, approximately $42,000 and
$71,000, respectively, were related to decreases in the average prices of
oil and gas sold and approximately $11,000 was related to a decrease in
the volumes of oil sold. These decreases were partially offset by an
increase of approximately $19,000 due to an increase in the volumes of gas
sold. Volumes of oil sold decreased 561 barrels, while volumes of gas sold
increased 9,567 Mcf for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared
to the three months ended June 30, 1997. Average oil and gas prices
decreased to $13.01 per barrel and $1.71 per Mcf, respectively, for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 from $20.11 per barrel and $1.97 per Mcf,
respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
As discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources above, the III-C
Partnership sold certain oil and gas properties during the three months
ended June 30, 1998 and recognized a $238,632 gain on such sales. Similar
sales during the three months ended June 30, 1997 resulted in the III-C
Partnership recognizing similar gains totaling $59,929.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) increased $20,232 (13.0%) for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997. This
increase resulted primarily from (i) an increase in general repair and
maintenance expenses on one significant well during the three months ended
June 30, 1998 and (ii) positive prior period ad valorem tax adjustments on
several wells during the three months ended June 30, 1998. As a percentage
of
43
oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to 31.8% for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 from 23.6% for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
This percentage increase was primarily due to the dollar increase in oil
and gas production expenses discussed above and decreases in the average
prices of oil and gas sold for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $36,059 (19.9%) for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease resulted
primarily from upward revisions in the estimates of remaining oil and gas
reserves at December 31, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, this
expense decreased to 26.2% for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from
27.5% for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
General and administrative expenses decreased $9,276 (12.0%) for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30,

Average price/Mcf $ 1.96 $ 2.29
As shown in the above table, total oil and gas sales decreased $365,930
(22.9%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six
months ended June 30, 1997. Of this decrease, approximately $80,000 and
$177,000, respectively, were related to decreases in the average prices of
oil and gas sold and approximately $99,000 was related to a decrease in
the volumes of gas sold. Volumes of oil and gas sold decreased 388 barrels
and 43,254 Mcf, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. Average oil and gas prices
decreased to $14.55 per barrel and $1.96 per

1997.
As discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources above, the III-C
Partnership sold certain oil and gas properties during the six months
ended June 30, 1998 and recognized a $405,333 gain on such sales. Similar
sales during the six months ended June 30, 1997 resulted in the III-C
Partnership recognizing similar gains totaling $55,672.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) decreased $43,475 (11.7%) for the six months ended June
30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease
resulted primarily from a decrease in both production taxes associated
with the decrease in oil and gas sales and lease operating expenses
associated with the decreases in volumes of oil and gas sold during the
six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June
30, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased
to 26.7% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 23.3% for the six
months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage increase was primarily due to
the decreases in the average prices of oil and gas sold for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $104,410 (27.0%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease resulted
primarily from upward revisions in the estimates of remaining oil and gas
reserves at December 31, 1997 and decreases in volumes of oil and gas sold
during the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, this expense
decreased to 22.9% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 24.2% for
the six months ended June 30, 1997.
The III-C Partnership recognized a non-cash charge against earnings of
$1,696,417 during the six months ended June 30, 1997. Of this amount,
$234,271 was related to a decline in oil and gas prices used to determine
the recoverability of proved oil and gas reserves at March 31, 1997 and
$1,462,146 was related to the writing-off of unproved properties. These
unproved properties were written off based on the General Partner's
determination that it was unlikely that such properties would be developed
due to the low oil and gas prices received over the prior several years
and provisions in the III-C Partnership's partnership agreement which
limit the level of permissible drilling activity. No similar charges were
necessary during the six months ended June 30, 1998.
45
General and administrative expenses decreased $5,518 (3.5%) for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, this expense increased to
12.4% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 9.9% for the six months
ended June 30, 1997. This percentage increase was primarily due to the
decrease in oil and gas sales discussed above.
The Limited Partners have received cash distributions through June 30,
1998 totaling $16,293,795 or 66.63% of Limited Partners' capital

As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales decreased $120,380
(17.4%) for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three
months ended June 30, 1997. Of this decrease, approximately $67,000 and
$101,000, respectively, were related to decreases in the volumes and
average prices of oil sold, which decreases were partially offset by
increases of approximately $17,000 and $31,000, respectively, related to
increases in the volumes and average prices of gas sold. Volumes of oil
sold decreased by 3,572 barrels while volumes of gas sold increased 11,113
Mcf for
53
the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended
June 30, 1997. The decrease in volumes of oil sold resulted primarily from
(i) a positive prior period volume adjustment by a purchaser on one
significant well during the three months ended June 30, 1997, (ii) the
normal decline in production on one significant well due to diminished
reserves during the three months ended June 30, 1998, and (iii) the sale
of one significant well in 1997. Average oil prices decreased to $12.14
per barrel for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from $18.86 per barrel
for the three months ended June 30, 1997. Average gas prices increased to
$1.66 per Mcf for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from $1.53 per Mcf
for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) increased $84,503 (29.6%) for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997. This
increase resulted primarily from (i) workover expenses incurred on two
significant wells during the three months ended June 30, 1998 in order to
increase the recovery of reserves, (ii) increased general repair and
maintenance expenses on one significant well during the three months ended
June 30, 1998, and (iii) abandonment expenses on one significant well
during the three months ended June 30, 1998. As a percentage of oil and
gas sales, these expenses increased to 64.9% for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 from 41.3% for the three months ended June 30, 1997. This
percentage increase was primarily due to the decrease in the average price
of oil sold during the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the
three months ended June 30, 1997 and the dollar increase in oil and gas
production expenses discussed above.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $106,498 (40.5%) for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease resulted
primarily from (i) the decrease in volumes of oil sold during the three
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30,
1997 and (ii) an upward revision in the estimate of remaining gas reserves
at December 31, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, this expense
decreased to 27.5% for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from 38.1% for
the three months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage decrease resulted
primarily from the dollar decrease in depreciation, depletion, and
amortization discussed above.
54
General and administrative expenses decreased $9,658 (13.6%) for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30,
1997. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in professional
fees for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three
months ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these
expenses remained relatively constant at 10.7% for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 and 10.3% for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AS COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE
30, 1997.
Six Months Ended June 30,
-------------------------
1998 1997
---------- ----------
Oil and gas sales $1,235,009 $1,625,145
Oil and gas production expenses $ 659,701 $ 617,406
Barrels produced 30,973 34,978
Mcf produced 443,012 470,113
Average price/Bbl $ 13.70 $ 19.92
Average price/Mcf $ 1.83 $ 1.98
As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales decreased $390,136
(24.0%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six
months ended June 30, 1997. Of this decrease, approximately $80,000 and
$54,000, respectively, were related to decreases in volumes of oil and gas
sold and approximately $192,000 and $64,000, respectively, were related to
decreases in the average prices of oil and gas sold. Volumes of oil and
gas sold decreased 4,005 barrels and 27,101 Mcf, respectively, for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
1997. The decrease in volumes of oil sold resulted primarily from (i) a
positive prior period volume adjustment by a purchaser during the six
months ended June 30, 1997 on one significant well, (ii) the normal
decline in production on one significant well due to diminished reserves
during the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1997, and (iii) the shutting-in of one significant well
during a portion of the six months ended June 30, 1998 in order to perform
a workover to improve the recovery of reserves. Average oil and gas prices
decreased to $13.70 per barrel and $1.83 per Mcf, respectively, for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 from $19.92 per barrel and $1.98 per Mcf,
respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1997.
55
As discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources above, the III-F
Partnership sold certain oil and gas properties during the six months
ended June 30, 1998 and recognized a $28,061 gain on such sales. Similar
sales during the six months ended June 30, 1997 resulted in the III-F
Partnership recognizing similar gains totaling $233.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) increased $42,295 (6.9%) for the six months ended June
30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. As a
percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to 53.4% for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 from 38.0% for the six months ended June
30, 1997. This percentage increase was primarily due to the decreases in
the average prices of oil and gas sold during the six months ended June
30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $230,975 (43.2%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease resulted
primarily from (i) the decrease in volumes of oil and gas sold during the
six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June
30, 1997 and (ii) an upward revision in the estimate of remaining gas
reserves at December 31, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, this
expense decreased to 24.6% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from
32.9% for the six months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage decrease
resulted primarily from the dollar decrease in depreciation, depletion,
and amortization discussed above.
The III-F Partnership recognized a non-cash charge against earnings of
$2,884,405 during the six months ended June 30, 1997. Of this amount,
$2,078,019 was related to the decline in oil and gas prices used to
determine the recoverability of proved oil and gas reserves at March 31,
1997 and $806,386 was related to the writing-off of unproved properties.
These unproved properties were written off based on the General Partner's
determination that it was unlikely that such properties would be developed
due to the low oil and gas prices received over the prior several years
and provisions in the III-F Partnership's partnership agreement which
limit the level of permissible drilling activity. No similar charges were
necessary during the six months ended June 30, 1998.
56
General and administrative expenses decreased $5,386 (3.8%) for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to
11.2% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 8.8% for the six months
ended June 30, 1997. This percentage increase was primarily due to the
decrease in oil and gas sales discussed above.
The Limited Partners have received cash distributions through June 30,
1998 totaling $10,729,904 or 48.45% of Limited Partners' capital
contributions.
III-G PARTNERSHIP
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AS COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 1997.
Three Months Ended June 30,
---------------------------
1998 1997
-------- --------
Oil and gas sales $349,671 $434,013
Oil and gas production expenses $224,180 $182,425
Barrels produced 10,660 13,330
Mcf produced 128,428 117,810
Average price/Bbl $ 12.17 $ 18.99
Average price/Mcf $ 1.71 $ 1.54
As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales decreased $84,342
(19.4%) for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three
months ended June 30, 1997. Of this decrease, approximately $50,000 and
$73,000, respectively, were related to decreases in the volumes and
average prices of oil sold, which decreases were partially offset by
increases of approximately $16,000 and $23,000, respectively, related to
increases in the volumes and average prices of gas sold. Volumes of oil
sold decreased by 2,670 barrels while volumes of gas sold increased by
10,618 Mcf for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the
three months ended June 30, 1997. The decrease in volumes of oil sold
resulted primarily from (i) a positive prior period volume adjustment by a
purchaser during the three months ended June 30, 1997 on one significant
well, (ii) a negative prior period volume adjustment by a purchaser during
the three months ended June 30, 1998 on one significant well, and (iii)
the normal decline in production on one significant well due to diminished
reserves during the three months ended June 30, 1998. Average oil prices
decreased to $12.17 per barrel for the three months ended June 30, 1998
from $18.99 per barrel for the three months ended June 30, 1997. Average
gas prices increased to $1.71 per Mcf for the three months ended June 30,
1998 from $1.54 per Mcf for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
57
As discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources above, the III-G
Partnership sold certain oil and gas properties during the three months
ended June 30, 1998 and recognized a $1,415 gain on such sales. Similar
sales during the three months ended June 30, 1997 resulted in the III-G
Partnership recognizing similar gains totaling $4,943.
Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) increased $41,755 (22.9%) for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997. This
increase resulted primarily from (i) workover expenses incurred on several
wells during the three months ended June 30, 1998 in order to increase the
recovery of reserves and (ii) an increase in general repair and
maintenance expenses on a significant salt water disposal well during the
three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended
June 30, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses
increased to 64.1% for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from 42.0% for
the three months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage increase was
primarily due to the decrease in the average price of oil sold during the
three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended
June 30, 1997 and the dollar increase in oil and gas production expenses
discussed above.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $51,168 (34.6%) for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease resulted
primarily from (i) the decrease in volumes of oil sold during the three
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30,
1997 and (ii) upward revisions in the estimates of remaining gas reserves
at December 31, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, this expense
decreased to 27.6% for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from 34.0% for
the three months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage decrease resulted
primarily from the dollar decrease in depreciation, depletion, and
amortization discussed above.
General and administrative expenses decreased $5,358 (13.7%) for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three months ended June 30,
1997. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in professional
fees for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the three
months ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these
expenses remained relatively constant at 9.7% for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 and 9.0% for the three months ended June 30, 1997.

As shown in the table above, total oil and gas sales decreased $261,640
(26.0%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six
months ended June 30, 1997. Of this decrease, approximately $67,000 and
$17,000, respectively, were related to decreases in volumes of oil and gas
sold and approximately $140,000 and $38,000, respectively, were related to
decreases in the average prices of oil and gas sold. Volumes of oil and
gas sold decreased 3,374 barrels and 8,364 Mcf, respectively, for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
1997. The decrease in volumes of oil sold resulted primarily from (i) a
positive prior period volume adjustment during the six months ended June
30, 1997 on one significant well, (ii) a negative prior period volume
adjustment by a purchaser during the six months ended June 30, 1998 on one
significant well, and (iii) the normal decline in production on one

Oil and gas production expenses (including lease operating expenses and
production taxes) increased $15,779 (4.0%) for the six months ended June
30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. This increase
resulted primarily from (i) workover expenses incurred on several wells
during the six months ended June 30, 1998 in order to increase the
recovery of reserves and (ii) an increase in general repair and
maintenance expenses on a significant salt water disposal well during the
six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June
30, 1997, which increases were partially offset by the decrease in volumes
of oil and gas sold during the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared
to the six months ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas
sales, these expenses increased to 55.5% for the six months ended June 30,
1998 from 39.5% for the six months ended June 30, 1997. This percentage
increase was primarily due to the decreases in the average prices of oil
and gas sold during the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the
six months ended June 30, 1997 and the dollar increase in oil and gas
production expenses discussed above.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties
decreased $112,854 (37.6%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease resulted
primarily from (i) the decrease in volumes of oil and gas sold during the
six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June
30, 1997 and (ii) upward revisions in the estimates of remaining gas
reserves at December 31, 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, this
expense decreased to 25.1% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from

resulted primarily from the dollar decrease in depreciation, depletion,
and amortization discussed above.
The III-G Partnership recognized a non-cash charge against earnings of
$1,449,404 during the six months ended June 30, 1997. Of this amount,
$1,010,738 was related to the decline in oil and gas prices used to
determine the recoverability of proved oil and gas reserves at March 31,
1997 and $438,666 was related to the writing-off of unproved properties.
These unproved properties were written off based on the General Partner's
determination that it was unlikely that such properties would be developed
