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.

Based on current conditions, management anticipates performing no workovers
during  2001 or 2002 to enhance production.  Workovers may be performed  in
the years 2003 or 2004.  The partnership may have an increase in production
volumes  for the years 2003 and 2004, otherwise, the partnership will  most
likely experience the historical production decline of approximately 7% 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 March 31, 2001, the net capitalized costs did  not
exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves.

Revenues

The  Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased to $277,178 from $255,066
for  the  quarters ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, an increase
of  9%.   The  principal factors affecting the comparison of  the  quarters
ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 are as follows:

1.  The  average  price  for a barrel of oil received  by  the  Partnership
    decreased  during the quarter ended March 31, 2001 as compared  to  the
    quarter ended March 31, 2000 by 4%, or $1.11 per barrel, resulting in a
    decrease of approximately $9,100 in revenues. Oil sales represented 74%
    of  total oil and gas sales during the quarters ended March 31, 2001 as
    compared to 86% during the quarter ended March 31, 2000.

    The  average  price  for  an  mcf of gas received  by  the  Partnership
    increased during the same period by 94%, or $2.69 per mcf, resulting in
    an increase of approximately $35,200 in revenues.

    The net total increase in revenues due to the change in prices received
    from oil and gas production is approximately $26,100.  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.


2.  Oil  production decreased approximately 200 barrels or  2%  during  the
    quarter ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the quarter ended March 31,
    2000, resulting in a decrease of approximately $5,200 in revenues.

    Gas  production increased approximately 400 mcf or 3% during  the  same
    period, resulting in an increase of approximately $1,100 in revenues.

    The  net total decrease in revenues due to the change in production  is
    approximately $4,100.

Costs and Expenses

Total  costs  and  expenses decreased to $167,331  from  $187,818  for  the
quarters  ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, a decrease  of  11%.
The  decrease is the result of lower lease operating costs and general  and
administrative  expense,  partially offset  by  an  increase  in  depletion
expense.

1.  Lease  operating  costs  and  production  taxes  were  13%  lower,   or
    approximately $21,300 less during the quarter ended March 31,  2001  as
    compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2000.

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  $200  during the quarter ended  March  31,  2001  as
    compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2000.

3.  Depletion expense increased to $10,000 for the quarter ended March  31,
    2001  from  $9,000  for the same period in 2000.   This  represents  an
    increase  of 11%.  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 operating activities were approximately $136,000  in
the  quarter ended March 31, 2001 as compared to approximately  $88,900  in
the quarter ended March 31, 2000.  The primary source of the 2001 cash flow
from operating activities was profitable operations.

Cash  flows used in investing activities were approximately $2,500  in  the
quarter  ended March 31, 2001 as compared to approximately $10,000  in  the
quarter ended March 31, 2000.  The principle use of the 2001 cash flow from
investing activities was the additions to oil and gas properties.

Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $152,000 in  the
quarter  ended March 31, 2001 as compared to approximately $74,900  in  the
quarter ended March 31, 2000.  The only use in financing activities was the
distributions to partners.

Total  distributions during the quarter ended March 31, 2001 were  $152,000
of  which  $136,800 was distributed to the limited partners and $15,200  to
the general partners.  The per unit distribution to limited partners during
the  quarter  ended March 31, 2001 was $12.56.  Total distributions  during
the  quarter  ended  March  31,  2000 were $75,000  of  which  $67,500  was
distributed  to  the limited partners and $7,500 to the  general  partners.
The  per  unit  distribution to limited partners during the  quarter  ended
March 31, 2000 was $6.20.

The  sources  for  the  2001 distributions of $152,000  were  oil  and  gas
operations of approximately $136,000, with the balance from available  cash
on  hand  at  the  beginning  of the period.   The  sources  for  the  2000
distributions  of  $75,000  were oil and gas  operations  of  approximately
$88,900  net  of  the  change  of oil and gas properties  of  approximately
$10,000,   resulting  in  excess  cash  for  contingencies  or   subsequent
distributions to partners.

Since  inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash  distributions
of  $5,202,939  have  been made to the partners.  As  of  March  31,  2001,
$4,709,100 or $432.46 per limited partner unit has been distributed to  the
limited partners, representing a 86% return of the capital contributed.

As of March 31, 2001, the Partnership had approximately $211,800 in working
capital.   The  Managing  General Partner knows of no  unusual  contractual
commitments  and  believes  the  revenues  generated  from  operations  are
adequate to meet the needs of the Partnership.
