Basis of Presentation. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements of the Partnership as of June 30, 1999 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 include all adjustments and accruals consisting only of normal recurring accrual adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto contained in the Partnership's Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, a copy of which is available upon request by writing to Rich Dealy, Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, 5205 North O'Connor Boulevard, 1400 Williams Square West, Irving, Texas 75039-3746. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(1) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Six months ended June 30, 1999 compared with six months ended June 30, 1998 Revenues: The Partnership's oil and gas revenues decreased 9% to $186,502 from $205,570 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The decrease in revenues resulted from lower average prices received, offset by an increase in production. For the six months ended June 30, 1999, 9,297 barrels of oil, 3,592 barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and 24,947 mcf of gas were sold, or 17,047 barrel of oil equivalents ("BOEs"). For the six months ended June 30, 1998, 9,753 barrels of oil, 2,988 barrels of NGLs and 23,991 mcf of gas were sold, or 16,740 BOEs. The average price received per barrel of oil decreased $1.29, or 9%, from $14.20 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $12.91 for the same period in 1999. The average price received per barrel of NGLs decreased $1.44, or 17%, from $8.43 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $6.99 for the same period in 1999. The average price received per mcf of gas decreased 5% from $1.74 during the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $1.66 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 six months ended June 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 $199 was received during the six months ended June 30, 1998 from post closing adjustments received from the sale of eight oil and gas wells during 1997. Costs and Expenses: Total costs and expenses increased to $238,811 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $237,625 for the same period in 1998, an increase of $1,186. This increase was attributable to higher depletion costs and general and administrative expenses ("G&A"), offset by a decline in production costs. Production costs were $150,511 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and $175,267 for the same period in 1998 resulting in a $24,756 decrease, or 14%. This decrease was due to declines in well maintenance costs and production taxes. G&A's components are independent accounting and engineering fees and managing general partner personnel and operating costs. During this period, G&A increased from $6,722 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $6,851 for the same period in 1999. Depletion was $81,449 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $55,636 for the same period in 1998. This represented an increase in depletion of $25,813, or 46%. This increase was the result of a combination of factors that included a decline in proved reserves during the period ended March 31, 1999 due to reserve revisions and lower commodity prices, offset by 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 and a reduction in oil production of 456 barrels for the period ended June 30, 1999 compared to the same period in 1998. Three months ended June 30, 1999 compared with three months ended June 30, 1998 Revenues: The Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased 17% to $101,099 from $86,663 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase in revenues resulted from increases in production 8 131 and higher average prices received. For the three months ended June 30, 1999, 4,285 barrels of oil, 1,840 barrels of NGLs and 12,774 mcf of gas were sold, or 8,254 BOEs. For the three months ended June 30, 1998, 4,429 barrels of oil, 957 barrels of NGLs and 8,265 mcf of gas were sold, or 6,764 BOEs. The average price received per barrel of oil increased 6%, from $13.39 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 to $14.21 for the same period in 1999. The average price received per barrel of NGLs increased 5% from $8.51 during the three months ended June 30, 1998 to $8.90 in 1999. The average price received per mcf of gas decreased 19% from $2.32 during the three months ended June 30, 1998 to $1.87 in 1999. A gain on disposition of assets of $199 was received during the three months ended June 30, 1998 from post closing adjustments received from the sale of eight oil and gas wells during 1997. Costs and Expenses: Total costs and expenses decreased to $87,366 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $131,831 for the same period in 1998, a decrease of $44,465, or 34%. This decrease was due to declines in production costs and depletion, offset by an increase in G&A. Production costs were $75,833 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and $100,496 for the same period in 1998 resulting in a $24,663 decrease, or 25%. This decrease was primarily due to a decline in well maintenance costs. During this period, G&A increased, in aggregate, 58% from $2,240 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 to $3,538 for the same period in 1999. Depletion was $7,995 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $29,095 for the same period in 1998, a decrease of $21,100, or 73%. This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in proved reserves during the period ended June 30, 1999 as a result of higher commodity prices, a reduction in oil production of 144 barrels for the three months ended June 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.

The average price received per barrel of NGLs decreased $1.44, or 173%, from $8.43 for 7.77 during the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $6.99 7.55 for the same period in 1999. The average price received per mcf of gas decreased 56% from $1.74 1.59 during the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $1.66 1.49 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 six months ended June 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 $199 156 was received during the six months ended June 30, 1998 from post closing adjustments received from the sale of eight oil equipment on one saltwater disposal well plugged and gas wells during 1997abandoned in a prior year.

This decrease was due to declines in production costs and depletion, offset by an increase in G&A. Production costs were $75,833 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and $100,496 for the same period in 1998 resulting in a $24,663 decrease, or 25%. This decrease was primarily due to a decline in well maintenance costs. During this period, G&A increased, in aggregate, 58% from $2,240 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 to $3,538 for the same period in 1999. Depletion was $7,995 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $29,095 for the same period in 1998, a decrease of $21,100, or 73%. This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in proved reserves during the period ended June 30, 1999 as a result of higher commodity prices, a reduction in oil production of 144 barrels for the three months ended June 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.

The Partnership may therefore sell its future oil and gas production at average prices lower or higher than that received during the six months ended June 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 $199 was received during the six months ended June 30, 1998 from post closing adjustments received from the sale of eight oil and gas wells during 1997. Costs and Expenses: Total costs and expenses increased decreased to $238,811 218,134 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $237,625 231,373 for the same period in 1998, an increase a decrease of $1,18613,239, or 6%. This increase decrease was attributable due to higher depletion declines in production costs and general and administrative expenses expenses, ("G&A"), offset by a decline an increase in production costsdepletion. Production costs were $150,511 154,559 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and $175,267 168,981 for the same period in 1998 1998, resulting in a $24,756 14,422 decrease, or 149%. This The decrease was due to declines in lower well maintenance costs and declines in production taxes and ad valorem taxes. G&A's components are independent accounting and engineering fees and managing general partner personnel and operating costs. During this period, G&A increased decreased, in aggregate, 7% from $6,722 7,593 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $6,851 7,085 for the same period in 1999. Depletion was $81,449 56,490 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $55,636 54,799 for the same period in 1998. This represented , an increase in depletion of $25,8131,691, or 463%. This increase was the result of a combination of factors that included a decline in proved reserves during the period ended March 31, 1999 due to reserve revisions and lower commodity prices, offset by 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 Of" ("SFAS 121") during the fourth quarter of 1998 and a reduction in oil production of 456 1,054 barrels for the period six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to the same period in 1998.

The increase in revenues resulted from increases in production 8 131 and higher average prices received. For the three months ended June 30, 1999, 4,285 barrels of oil, 1,840 barrels of NGLs and 12,774 mcf of gas were sold, or 8,254 BOEs. For the three months ended June 30, 1998, 4,429 barrels of oil, 957 barrels of NGLs and 8,265 mcf of gas were sold, or 6,764 BOEs.

The average price received per mcf of gas decreased 19% from $2.32 during the three months ended June 30, 1998 to $1.87 in 1999. A gain on disposition of assets of $199 was received during the three months ended June 30, 1998 from post closing adjustments received from the sale of eight oil and gas wells during 1997. Costs and Expenses: Total costs and expenses decreased to $87,366 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $131,831 for the same period in 1998, a decrease of $44,465, or 34%. This decrease was due to declines in production costs and depletion, offset by an increase in G&A. Production costs were $75,833 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and $100,496 for the same period in 1998 resulting in a $24,663 decrease, or 25%. This decrease was primarily due to a decline in well maintenance costs. During this period, G&A increased, in aggregate, 58% from $2,240 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 to $3,538 for the same period in 1999. Depletion was $7,995 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $29,095 for the same period in 1998, a decrease of $21,100, or 73%. This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in proved reserves during the period ended June 30, 1999 as a result of higher commodity prices, a reduction in oil production of 144 barrels for the three months ended June 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.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(1) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Six months ended June 30, 1999 compared with six months ended June 30, 1998 Revenues: The Partnership's oil and gas revenues decreased 910% to $186,502 458,623 from $205,570 511,361 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The decrease in revenues resulted from lower average prices received, offset by an increase received and a decrease in production. For the six months ended June 30, 1999, 9,297 23,002 barrels of oil, 3,592 11,929 barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and 24,947 51,130 mcf of gas were sold, or 17,047 43,453 barrel of oil equivalents ("BOEs"). For the six months ended June 30, 1998, 9,753 25,046 barrels of oil, 2,988 10,876 barrels of NGLs and 23,991 51,388 mcf of gas were sold, or 16,740 44,487 BOEs. The average price received per barrel of oil decreased $1.291.08, or 98%, from $14.20 14.09 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $12.91 13.01 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 six months ended June 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.

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 six months ended June 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.
