                                     PART I


ITEM 1      BUSINESS

      General

      The Dyco Oil and Gas Program 1984-2 Limited Partnership (the "Program") is
a Minnesota  limited  partnership  engaged in the production of oil and gas. The
Program  commenced  operations  on November  5, 1984 with the primary  financial
objective of investing its limited  partners'  subscriptions  in the drilling of
oil  and gas  prospects  and  then  distributing  to its  limited  partners  all
available  cash flow from the Program's  on-going  production  operations.  Dyco
Petroleum Corporation ("Dyco") serves as the General Partner of the Program. See
"Item 2. Properties" for a description of the Program's reserves and properties.

      The  limited   partnership   agreement   for  the  Program  (the  "Program
Agreement")  provides  that limited  partners are  allocated  99% of all Program
costs and revenues and Dyco, as General Partner,  is allocated 1% of all Program
costs and  revenues.  Included in such costs is the Program's  reimbursement  to
Dyco of the Program's proportionate share of Dyco's geological, engineering, and
general and administrative expenses.

      Dyco  currently  serves as General  Partner  of 31  limited  partnerships,
including the Program.  Dyco is a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Samson  Investment
Company.  Samson  Investment  Company  and its various  corporate  subsidiaries,
including Dyco, (collectively, "Samson") are primarily engaged in the production
and  development of and exploration for oil and gas reserves and the acquisition
and  operation  of  producing  properties.  At January 31,  1999,  Samson  owned
interests in approximately  10,500 oil and gas wells located in 19 states of the
United States and the countries of Canada, Venezuela, and Russia. At January 31,
1999, Samson operated approximately 2,900 oil and gas wells located in 15 states
of the United States, as well as Canada, Venezuela, and Russia.

      As a limited  partnership,  the Program  has no  officers,  directors,  or
employees. It relies instead on the personnel of Dyco and Samson. As of March 1,
1999,  Samson employed  approximately  900 persons.  No employees are covered by
collective bargaining agreements, and management believes that Samson provides a
sound employee relations  environment.  For information  regarding the executive
officers  of Dyco,  see  "Item  10.  Directors  and  Executive  Officers  of the
Registrant."

      Dyco's and the Program's  principal place of business is located at Samson
Plaza, Two West Second Street, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74103, and their telephone number
is (918) 583-1791 or (800) 283-1791.

      Funding

      Although the Program  Agreement  permits the Program to incur  borrowings,
the Program's  operations and expenses are currently funded out of the Program's
revenues from oil and gas sales. Dyco may, but is not required to, advance funds
to  the  Program  for  the  same  purposes  for  which  Program  borrowings  are
authorized.


      Principal Products Produced and Services Rendered

      The Program's sole business is the  development  and production of oil and
gas with a  concentration  on gas.  The  Program  does  not  hold  any  patents,
trademarks,  licenses,  or  concessions  and is not a  party  to any  government
contracts.  The  Program  has no backlog of orders and does not  participate  in
research and development  activities.  The Program is not presently encountering
shortages of oilfield tubular goods, compressors,  production material, or other
equipment.


      Oil, Gas, and Environmental Control Regulations

      Regulation  of Production  Operations -- The  production of oil and gas is
subject to  extensive  federal and state laws and  regulations  governing a wide
variety of matters, including the drilling and spacing of wells, allowable rates
of  production,  prevention  of  waste  and  pollution,  and  protection  of the
environment.  In  addition  to the direct  costs  borne in  complying  with such
regulations,  operations and revenues may be impacted to the extent that certain
regulations limit oil and gas production to below economic levels.

      Regulation  of Sales and  Transportation  of Oil and Gas -- Sales of crude
oil and  condensate are made by the Program at market prices and are not subject
to price controls. The sale of gas may be subject to both federal and state laws
and  regulations.  The provisions of these laws and  regulations are complex and
affect all who  produce,  resell,  transport,  or purchase  gas,  including  the
Program.  Although  virtually all of the Program's gas production is not subject
to  price  regulation,   other  regulations   affect  the  availability  of  gas
transportation services and the ability of gas consumers to continue to purchase
or use gas at current levels. Accordingly,  such regulations may have a material
effect  on the  Program's  operations  and  projections  of  future  oil and gas
production and revenues.

      Future  Legislation --  Legislation  affecting the oil and gas industry is
under  constant  review  for  amendment  or  expansion.  Because  such  laws and
regulations  are frequently  amended or  reinterpreted,  management is unable to
predict what  additional  energy  legislation  may be proposed or enacted or the
future cost and impact of complying with existing or future regulations.



                                      -4-
<PAGE>



      Regulation of the  Environment -- The Program's  operations are subject to
numerous laws and  regulations  governing  the  discharge of materials  into the
environment or otherwise relating to environmental  protection.  Compliance with
such  laws  and  regulations,   together  with  any  penalties   resulting  from
noncompliance,  may increase the cost of the Program's  operations or may affect
the  Program's  ability  to  timely  complete  existing  or  future  activities.
Management  anticipates  that various local,  state,  and federal  environmental
control agencies will have an increasing impact on oil and gas operations.


      Significant Customers

      Purchases of gas by El Paso Energy Marketing Company ("El Paso") accounted
for  approximately  98.9% of the Program's oil and gas revenues  during the year
ended  December  31,  1998.  In the event of  interruption  of purchases by this
significant  customer or the  cessation or material  change in  availability  of
open-access  transportation by the Program's pipeline transporters,  the Program
may encounter  difficulty in marketing its gas and in maintaining historic sales
levels. Alternative purchasers or transporters may not be readily available.

      The Program's  principal  customers for crude oil  production are refiners
and other companies which have pipeline facilities near the producing properties
of the Program. In the event pipeline facilities are not conveniently  available
to  production  areas,  crude oil is usually  trucked by  purchasers  to storage
facilities.


      Competition and Marketing

      The domestic  oil and gas  industry  is highly  competitive,  with a large
number of companies and  individuals  engaged in the exploration and development
of oil and gas properties.  The ability of the Program to produce and market oil
and gas profitably depends on a number of factors that are beyond the control of
the Program.  These factors include worldwide political instability  (especially
in oil-producing regions), United Nations export embargoes, the supply and price
of foreign  imports of oil and gas, the level of consumer  product demand (which
can be heavily  influenced  by weather  patterns),  government  regulations  and
taxes,  the price and  availability of alternative  fuels,  the overall economic
environment,  and the availability and capacity of transportation and processing
facilities.  In addition,  on March 12, 1999 several major oil producing nations
agreed to curtail oil exports in an effort to increase worldwide oil prices. The
effect  of these  factors  on  future  oil and gas  industry  trends  cannot  be
accurately predicted or anticipated.

      The most important variable affecting the Program's revenues is the prices
received for the sale of oil and gas.  Predicting future prices is not possible.
Concerning past trends, average yearly



                                      -5-
<PAGE>



wellhead  gas prices in the United  States  have been  volatile  for a number of
years.  For the past ten years,  such average  prices have generally been in the
$1.40 to $2.40 per Mcf range.

      Substantially  all of the  Program's  gas  reserves  are being sold on 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. In addition,  such spot market sales are generally  short-term in nature
and are dependent  upon the  obtaining of  transportation  services  provided by
pipelines.  Spot prices for the Program's gas decreased from approximately $2.32
per Mcf at December  31,  1997 to  approximately  $1.93 per Mcf at December  31,
1998.  Such prices  were on an MMBTU  basis and differ from the prices  actually
received  by  the  Program  due  to  transportation  and  marketing  costs,  BTU
adjustments, and regional price and quality differences.  Continued very low oil
prices as discussed below may cause downward  pressure on gas prices due to some
users of gas converting to oil as a cheaper fuel alternative.

      For the past ten years,  average  oil prices  have  generally  been in the
$16.00 to $24.00 per barrel range.  Due to global  consumption and supply trends
over the last year as well as at least a  short-term  slowdown  in Asian  energy
demand,  oil prices  over the past year have  reached  historically  low levels,
dropping to as low as  approximately  $9.00 per barrel.  It is not known whether
this  trend  will  continue.   Prices  for  the  Program's  oil  decreased  from
approximately  $16.25 per barrel at December 31, 1997 to approximately $9.50 per
barrel at December 31, 1998.

      As of February  28, 1999 oil and gas prices were  approximately  $9.50 per
barrel and $1.55 per Mcf, respectively.  Future prices for both oil and gas will
likely  be  different  from  (and may be lower  than)  the  prices  in effect on
December 31, 1998 and February 28, 1999.  As of the date of this Annual  Report,
oil prices have increased  slightly over the February 28, 1999 price,  primarily
due to the March 1999  announcement that several oil producing nations intend to
curtail oil exports.  Management is unable to predict whether future oil and gas
prices will (i) stabilize, (ii) increase, or (iii) decrease.


      Insurance Coverage

      The Program is subject to all of the risks inherent in the exploration for
and production of oil and gas, including blowouts,  pollution,  fires, and other
casualties.  The  Program  maintains  insurance  coverage  as is  customary  for
entities of a similar size engaged in operations similar to that of the Program,
but losses can occur from uninsurable  risks or in amounts in excess of existing
insurance  coverage.  The  occurrence  of an event which is not fully covered by
insurance  could  have a  material  adverse  effect on the  Program's  financial
condition and results of operations.

----------
(1)   The designation of a well as an oil well or gas well is made by Dyco based
      on the relative amount of oil and gas reserves for the well. Regardless of
      a well's oil or gas designation,  it may produce oil, gas, or both oil and
      gas.
(2)   As used  throughout  this Annual  Report on Form 10-K  ("Annual  Report"),
      "Gross  Well" refers to a well in which a working  interest is owned.  The
      number  of gross  wells is the  total  number  of wells in which a working
      interest is owned.
(3)   As used throughout this Annual Report, "Net Well" refers to the sum of the
      fractional  working  interests  owned in gross wells.  For example,  a 15%
      working interest in a well represents one Gross Well, but 0.15 Net Well.


      Drilling Activities

      The  Program  participated  in no drilling  activities  for the year ended
December 31, 1998.

(3)   Includes lease operating expenses and production taxes.
(4)   Oil production is converted to gas  equivalents at the rate of six Mcf per
      barrel, representing the estimated relative energy content of gas and oil,
      which rate is not  necessarily  indicative of the  relationship of oil and
      gas prices.  The  respective  prices of oil and gas are affected by market
      and other factors in addition to relative energy content.

      Proved Reserves and Net Present Value

      The following table sets forth the Program's  estimated proved oil and gas
reserves and net present value  therefrom as of December 31, 1998.  The schedule
of  quantities of proved oil and gas reserves was prepared by Dyco in accordance
with the rules prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
As used  throughout  this  Annual  Report,  "proved  reserves"  refers  to those
estimated  quantities of crude oil, gas, and gas liquids  which  geological  and
engineering  data  demonstrate  with  reasonable  certainty to be recoverable in
future  years from known oil and gas  reservoirs  under  existing  economic  and
operating conditions.

      Net present  value  represents  estimated  future gross cash flow from the
production and sale of proved reserves,  net of estimated oil and gas production
costs (including  production  taxes, ad valorem taxes, and operating  expenses),
and estimated future development costs, discounted at 10% per annum. Net present
value  attributable to the Program's proved reserves was calculated on the basis
of current costs and prices at December 31, 1998. Such prices were not escalated
except in  certain  circumstances  where  escalations  were  fixed  and  readily
determinable in accordance with applicable contract provisions.  The prices used
by Dyco in  calculating  the net present  value  attributable  to the  Program's
proved  reserves  do not  necessarily  reflect  market  prices  for  oil and gas
production  subsequent to December 31, 1998.  There can be no assurance that the
prices  used in  calculating  the net  present  value  of the  Program's  proved
reserves at December 31, 1998 will actually be realized for such production.

      The process of  estimating  oil and gas  reserves  is  complex,  requiring
significant  subjective  decisions in the  evaluation  of available  geological,
engineering,  and  economic  data  for  each  reservoir.  The  data  for a given
reservoir may change substantially over time as a result of, among other things,
additional development activity, production history, and viability of production
under varying economic conditions;  consequently, it is reasonably possible that
material  revisions to existing reserve  estimates may occur in the near future.
Although  every  reasonable  effort has been made to ensure  that these  reserve
estimates represent the most accurate assessment  possible,  the significance of
the  subjective  decisions  required and variances in available data for various
reservoirs  make these  estimates  generally  less precise than other  estimates
presented in connection with financial statement disclosures.

                               Net Present Value
                             From Proved Reserves

                            As of December 31, 1998

            Estimated proved reserves:
               Gas (Mcf)                                  1,130,514
               Oil and liquids (Bbls)                         5,640

            Net present value
               (discounted at 10% per annum)             $  966,257


      No estimates  of the proved  reserves of the Program  comparable  to those
included  herein have been included in reports to any federal  agency other than
the SEC.  Additional  information  relating to the Program's  proved reserves is
contained in Note 4 to the Program's financial statements, included in Item 8 of
this Annual Report.


      Significant Properties

      As of December 31, 1998,  the Program's  properties  consisted of 11 gross
(1.58 net) productive wells. The Program also owned a non-working interest in an
additional 6 wells.  Affiliates of the Program  operate 8 (47%) of the Program's
total wells. All of the Program's  reserves are located in the Anadarko Basin of
western  Oklahoma and the Texas  panhandle,  which is an established oil and gas
producing basin.


      Title to Oil and Gas Properties

      Management believes that the Program has satisfactory title to its oil and
gas properties. Record title to substantially all of the Program's properties is
held by Dyco as nominee.

      Title  to the  Program's  properties  is  subject  to  customary  royalty,
overriding  royalty,   carried,   working,   and  other  similar  interests  and
contractual  arrangements  customary in the oil and gas  industry,  to liens for
current taxes not yet due, and to other  encumbrances.  Management believes that
such burdens do not materially detract from the value of such properties or from
the Program's  interest  therein or materially  interfere  with their use in the
operation of the Program's business.


ITEM 3.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     To the knowledge of the  management of Dyco and the Program,  neither Dyco,
the Program, nor the Program's properties are subject



                                      -10-
<PAGE>



to any  litigation,  the  results of which  would have a material  effect on the
Program's or Dyco's financial condition or operations.


ITEM 4.     SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF LIMITED PARTNERS

      There were no matters  submitted to a vote of the limited  partners during
1998.


                                    PART II

ITEM 5.     MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNITS AND RELATED  
            LIMITED PARTNER MATTERS

      The Program does not have an  established  trading market for its units of
limited  partnership  interest  ("Units").  Pursuant to the terms of the Program
Agreement, Dyco, as General Partner, is obligated to annually issue a repurchase
offer which is based on the  estimated  future net revenues  from the  Program's
reserves and is calculated pursuant to the terms of the Program Agreement.  Such
repurchase offer is recalculated  monthly in order to reflect cash distributions
made to the limited partners and extraordinary  events. The following table sets
forth,  for the  periods  indicated,  Dyco's  repurchase  offer per Unit and the
amount of the Program's  cash  distributions  per Unit for the same period.  For
purposes of this Annual Report,  a Unit  represents an initial  subscription  of
$5,000 to the Program.

                                    Repurchase            Cash
                                       Price          Distributions

ITEM 7.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      Use of Forward-Looking Statements and Estimates

      This Annual Report contains certain forward-looking  statements. The 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 Annual  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, or otherwise indicated.


      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 Program's  revenues is the prices received for the sale of oil and
gas. Predicting future prices is not possible.  Concerning past trends,  average
yearly  wellhead gas prices in the United States have been volatile for a number
of years. For the past ten years, such average prices have generally been in the
$1.40 to $2.40 per Mcf range.

      Substantially  all of the  Program's  gas  reserves  are being sold on 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. In addition,  such spot market sales are generally  short-term in nature
and are dependent  upon the  obtaining of  transportation  services  provided by
pipelines.  Spot prices for the Program's gas decreased from approximately $2.32
per Mcf at December  31,  1997 to  approximately  $1.93 per Mcf at December  31,
1998.  Such prices  were on an MMBTU  basis and differ from the prices  actually
received by the Program due to



                                      -13-
<PAGE>



transportation  and marketing  costs,  BTU  adjustments,  and regional price and
quality differences.  Continued very low oil prices as discussed below may cause
downward  pressure on gas prices due to some users of gas converting to oil as a
cheaper fuel alternative.

      For the past ten years,  average  oil prices  have  generally  been in the
$16.00 to $24.00 per barrel range.  Due to global  consumption and supply trends
over the last year as well as at least a  short-term  slowdown  in Asian  energy
demand,  oil prices  over the past year have  reached  historically  low levels,
dropping to as low as  approximately  $9.00 per barrel.  It is not known whether
this  trend  will  continue.   Prices  for  the  Program's  oil  decreased  from
approximately  $16.25 per barrel at December 31, 1997 to approximately $9.50 per
barrel at December 31, 1998.

      As of February  28, 1999 oil and gas prices were  approximately  $9.50 per
barrel and $1.55 per Mcf, respectively.  Future prices for both oil and gas will
likely  be  different  from  (and may be lower  than)  the  prices  in effect on
December 31, 1998 and February 28, 1999.  As of the date of this Annual  Report,
oil prices have increased  slightly over the February 28, 1999 price,  primarily
due to the March 1999  announcement that several oil producing nations intend to
curtail oil exports.  Management is unable to predict whether future oil and gas
prices will (i) stabilize, (ii) increase, or (iii) decrease.


      Results of Operations

                    Year Ended December 31, 1998 Compared
                         Year Ended December 31, 1997
                     -------------------------------------

      Total oil and gas sales decreased  $121,781 (30.2%) in 1998 as compared to
1997.  Of this  decrease,  approximately  $62,000  was  related to a decrease in
volumes of gas sold and  approximately  $56,000 was related to a decrease in the
average price of gas sold. Volumes of oil and gas sold decreased 111 barrels and
26,465 Mcf,  respectively,  in 1998 as compared to 1997. The decrease in volumes
of  gas  sold  resulted  primarily  from  (i) a  positive  prior  period  volume
adjustment  made by the operator on one well during  1997,  (ii) the sale of one
well during 1998, and (iii) normal declines in production.  These decreases were
partially offset by a positive prior period volume adjustment on one well during
1998.  Average oil and gas prices  decreased  to $12.88 per barrel and $1.95 per
Mcf,  respectively,   in  1998  from  $19.11  per  barrel  and  $2.35  per  Mcf,
respectively, in 1997.

      Oil and gas production  expenses  (including lease operating  expenses and
production  taxes)  decreased  $5,200  (5.9%) in 1998 as compared to 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,  which  decreases
were



                                      -14-
<PAGE>



partially offset by increased repair and maintenance expenses on one well during
1998. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased to 29.3% in
1998 from 21.7% in 1997.  This  percentage  increase  was  primarily  due to the
decreases in the average prices of oil and gas sold and the increased repair and
maintenance expenses on one well during 1998.

      Depreciation,  depletion,  and  amortization  of oil  and  gas  properties
decreased  $7,882  (12.6%) in 1998 as compared to 1997.  This decrease  resulted
primarily  from the decreases in volumes of oil and gas sold.  This decrease was
partially  offset by an  increase  primarily  due to a downward  revision in the
estimate of remaining  gas reserves at December 31, 1998. As a percentage of oil
and gas sales,  these  expenses  increased  to 19.5% in 1998 from 15.6% in 1997.
This  percentage  increase  was  primarily  due to the  decreases in the average
prices of oil and gas sold.

      General and  administrative  expenses  decreased  $4,385 (6.1%) in 1998 as
compared to 1997. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased
to 24.2% in 1998 from 18.0% in 1997. This percentage  increase was primarily due
to the decrease in oil and gas sales.


                    Year Ended December 31, 1997 Compared
                         Year Ended December 31, 1996
                     -------------------------------------

      Total oil and gas sales  decreased  $26,533  (6.2%) in 1997 as compared to
1996. Of this decrease,  approximately  $71,000 was related to a decrease in the
volumes of gas sold,  which  decrease  was  partially  offset by an  increase of
approximately  $46,000  related to an increase in the average price of gas sold.
Volumes of oil and gas sold  decreased 56 barrels and 33,900 Mcf,  respectively,
in 1997 as  compared  to 1996.  The  decrease  in volumes  of gas sold  resulted
primarily  from (i) normal  declines  in  production  and (ii) a positive  prior
period volume adjustment made by the purchaser on one well during 1996.  Average
oil prices  decreased  to $19.11  per  barrel in 1997 from  $20.28 per barrel in
1996.  Average gas prices  increased to $2.35 per Mcf in 1997 from $2.08 per Mcf
in 1996.

      Oil and gas production  expenses  (including lease operating  expenses and
production  taxes)  decreased  $19,337 (18.1%) in 1997 as compared to 1996. This
decrease  resulted  primarily  from (i) a workover  preformed on one well during
1996  and (ii)  the  decreases  in  volumes  of oil and gas  sold in 1997.  As a
percentage of oil and gas sales,  these expenses decreased to 21.7% in 1997 from
24.9% in 1996. This percentage decrease was primarily due to the decrease in oil
and gas production expenses.

      Depreciation,  depletion,  and  amortization  of oil  and  gas  properties
increased  $17,813 (39.7%) in 1997 as compared to 1996.  This increase  resulted
primarily  from  decreases  in the prices used to value oil and gas  reserves in
1997 as compared to 1996. As a



                                      -15-
<PAGE>



percentage  of oil and gas sales,  this expense  increased to 15.6% in 1997 from
10.5% in 1996.  This  percentage  increase was  primarily due to the increase in
depreciation, depletion, and amortization.

      General and  administrative  expenses  increased  $2,625 (3.8%) in 1997 as
compared to 1996. As a percentage of oil and gas sales, these expenses increased
to 18.0% in 1997 from 16.3% in 1996. This percentage  increase was primarily due
to the decrease in oil and gas sales.


      Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Net  proceeds  from  operations  less  necessary   operating  capital  are
distributed to the limited  partners on a quarterly  basis.  See "Item 5. Market
for the  Registrant's  Limited  Partnership  Units and Related  Limited  Partner
Matters."  The net proceeds  from  production  are not  reinvested in productive
assets, except to the extent that producing wells are improved, or where methods
are employed to permit more efficient recovery of reserves, thereby resulting in
a positive  economic impact.  Assuming 1998 production  levels for future years,
the  Program's  proved  reserve  quantities  at  December  31,  1998  would have
remaining lives of  approximately  7.9 years for gas reserves and 31.9 years for
oil reserves.  However,  since the Program's  reserve estimates are based on oil
and gas prices at December 31, 1998, it is possible that a significant  decrease
in oil and gas prices from  December  31, 1998 levels will reduce such  reserves
and their corresponding life-span.

      The Program's  available capital from the limited partners'  subscriptions
has been spent on oil and gas drilling activities and there should be no further
material capital resource commitments in the future.  Occasional expenditures by
the Program for well completions or workovers,  however, may reduce or eliminate
cash available for a particular quarterly cash distribution.  The Program has no
debt commitments.  Cash for operational purposes will be provided by current oil
and gas production.

      There can be no  assurance as to the amount of the  Program's  future cash
distributions.   The  Program's  ability  to  make  cash  distributions  depends
primarily  upon the level of  available  cash flow  generated  by the  Program's
operating  activities,  which will be affected (either positively or negatively)
by many factors  beyond the control of the Program,  including  the price of and
demand for oil and gas and other market and economic conditions.  Even if prices
and costs remain  stable,  the amount of cash available for  distributions  will
decline  over  time (as the  volume  of  production  from  producing  properties
declines) since the Program is not replacing  production through acquisitions of
producing properties and drilling.

      Inflation and Changing Prices

      Prices obtained for oil and gas production  depend upon numerous  factors,
including the extent of domestic and foreign production, foreign imports of oil,
market  demand,  domestic  and  foreign  economic  conditions  in  general,  and
governmental  regulations  and tax laws.  The general  level of inflation in the
economy did not have a material effect on the operations of the Program in 1998.
Oil and gas prices have  fluctuated  during recent years and generally  have not
followed  the same pattern as  inflation.  See "Item 2.  Properties  Oil and Gas
Production, Revenue, and Price History."


      Year 2000 Computer Issues

                                   In General

      The Year 2000 Issue ("Y2K")  refers to the inability of computer and other
information  technology  systems to properly process date and time  information,
stemming from the earlier  programming  practice of using two digits rather than
four to  represent  the  year in a date.  For  example,  computer  programs  and
imbedded  chips that are date  sensitive  may recognize a date using (00) as the
year 1900 rather than the year 2000. The consequence of Y2K is that computer and
imbedded  processing  systems  may be at  risk of  malfunctioning,  particularly
during the transition from 1999 to 2000.

      The effects of Y2K are exacerbated by the  interdependence of computer and
telecommunication systems throughout the world. This interdependence also exists
among the Program, Samson, and their vendors,  customers, and business partners,
as well as with  regulators.  The potential risks associated with Y2K for an oil
and gas  production  company  fall into  three  general  areas:  (i)  financial,
leasehold and  administrative  computer systems,  (ii) imbedded systems in field
process control units, and (iii) third party exposures. As discussed below, Dyco
does not believe that these risks will be material to the Program's operations.

      The Program's business is producing oil and gas. The day-to-day production
of the  Program's  oil and gas is not  dependent on computers or equipment  with
imbedded chips. As further  discussed  below,  management  anticipates  that the
Program's daily business activities will not be materially affected by Y2K.

      The  Program  relies on  Samson  to  provide  all of its  operational  and
administrative  services  on  either a  direct  or  indirect  basis.  Samson  is
addressing  each of the three  Y2K areas  discussed  above  through a  readiness
process that seeks to:

      1.    increase the awareness of the issue among key employees;
      2.    identify areas of potential risk;
      3.    assess the  relative  impact of these risks and Samson's  ability to
            manage them; and



                                      -17-

      4.    remediate these risks on a priority basis wherever possible.

      Samson  Investment  Company's Chief  Financial  Officer is responsible for
communicating  to its  Board  of  Directors  Y2K  actions  and for the  ultimate
implementation of its Y2K plan. He has delegated to Samson Investment  Company's
Senior  Vice   President-Technology   and   Administrative   Services  principal
responsibility for ensuring Y2K compliance within Samson.

      Samson  has  been  planning  for  the  impact  of Y2K  on its  information
technology  systems  since  1993.  As of March 1,  1999,  Samson is in the final
stages of implementation of a Y2K plan, as summarized below:


                      Financial and Administrative Systems

      1. Awareness. Samson has alerted its officers, managers and supervisors of
Y2K  issues  and  asked  them  to  have  their  employees   participate  in  the
identification  of  potential  Y2K risks which might  otherwise  go unnoticed by
higher level  employees  and  officers.  As a result,  awareness of the issue is
considered high.

      2.  Risk   Identification.   Samson's  most   significant   financial  and
administrative  systems  exposure is the Y2K status of the  accounting  and land
administration  system used to collect and manage data for  internal  management
decision making and for external  revenue and accounts payable  purposes.  Other
concerns include network hardware and software,  desktop computing  hardware and
software, telecommunications, and office space readiness.

      3. Risk  Assessment.  The failure to identify  and correct a material  Y2K
problem  could  result in  inaccurate  or  untimely  financial  information  for
management  decision-making  or  cash  flow  and  payment  purposes,   including
maintaining oil and gas leases.

      4.  Remediation.  Since 1993, Samson has been upgrading its accounting and
land  administration  software.  Substantially all of the Y2K upgrades have been
completed,  with the remainder  scheduled to be completed during the 2nd quarter
of 1999.  In  addition,  in 1997 and 1998 Samson  replaced  or applied  software
patches to substantially  all of its network and desktop  software  applications
and believes them to be generally Y2K compliant.  Additional patches or software
upgrades  will be applied no later than May 15, 1999 to complete  this  process.
The costs of all such risk  assessments  and  remediation are not expected to be
material to the Program.

      5. Contingency  Planning.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  should there be
significant  unanticipated  disruptions in Samson's financial and administrative
systems,  all of the accounting processes that are currently automated will need
to be performed manually. Samson will consider in the second half of 1999 its



                                      -18-
<PAGE>



options with  respect to  contingency  arrangements  for  temporary  staffing to
accommodate such situations.


                                Imbedded Systems

      1.  Awareness.  Samson's  Y2K  program  has  involved  all levels of field
personnel  from  production  foremen and higher.  Employees at all levels of the
organization  have been asked to participate in the  identification of potential
Y2K risks,  which might  otherwise go unnoticed  by higher level  employees  and
officers of Samson, and as a result, awareness of the issue is considered high.

      2. Risk  Identification.  Samson has inventoried all possible exposures to
imbedded  chips and systems.  Such exposures can be classified as either (i) oil
and gas  production  and  processing  equipment or (ii) office  machines such as
faxes, copiers, phones, etc.

      With respect to oil and gas production and processing  equipment,  neither
Samson nor the Program operate offshore wells, significant processing plants, or
wells with older electronic monitoring systems. As a result,  Samson's inventory
identified less than 10 applications  using imbedded chips.  All of these are in
the process of being tested by the respective vendors and are expected to be Y2K
compliant or replaced no later than May 30, 1999. Oil and gas production related
to such equipment is very minor with respect to the entire Samson group, and, in
fact, the Program's production may not use such equipment at all.

      Office  machines are currently  being tested by Samson and vendors.  It is
expected that such machines will be made compliant or replaced no later than May
15, 1999.

      3. Risk Assessment and Remediation.  The failure to identify and correct a
material Y2K problem in an imbedded system could result in outcomes ranging from
errors in data reporting to  curtailments  or shutdowns in production.  As noted
above,  Samson has identified less than 10 imbedded system applications that may
have a Y2K problem.  None of these  applications  are believed to be material to
Samson or the Program. Once identified, assessed and prioritized, Samson intends
to test and upgrade  imbedded  components  and systems in field process  control
units deemed to pose the greatest risk of significant non-compliance and capable
of testing.  Samson believes that sufficient  manual  processes are available to
minimize any such field level risk and that there will be no material  impact on
the Program with respect to these applications.

      4. Contingency Planning. Should material production disruptions occur as a
result of Y2K  failures in field  operations,  Samson will  utilize its existing
field  personnel  in an attempt to avoid any material  impact on operating  cash
flow.  Samson is not able to  quantify  any  potential  exposure in the event of
systems failure or inadequate manual alternatives.

                              Third Party Exposures

      1. Awareness.  Samson has advised  management to consider Y2K implications
with its outside vendors, customers, and business partners.  Management has been
asked to participate in the  identification  of potential  third party Y2K risks
and, as a result, awareness of the issue is considered high.

      2. Risk Identification. Samson's most significant third party Y2K exposure
is its  dependence on third parties for the receipt of revenues from oil and gas
sales.   However,   virtually  all  of  these  purchasers  are  very  large  and
sophisticated companies. Other Y2K concerns include the availability of electric
power to Samson's field operations,  the integrity of telecommunication systems,
and the readiness of commercial banks to execute electronic fund transfers.

      3. Risk  Assessment.  Because of the high  awareness of the Y2K problem in
the U.S.,  Samson has not  undertaken  and does not plan to  undertake  a formal
company  wide plan to make  inquiries  of third  parties  on the  subject of Y2K
readiness.  If it did so,  Samson has no ability  to require  responses  to such
inquiries  or to  independently  verify  their  accuracy.  Samson has,  however,
received oral  assurances  from its  significant  oil and gas  purchasers of Y2K
compliance.  If significant  disruptions  from major  purchasers  were to occur,
however,  there could be a material and adverse impact on the Program's  results
of operations, liquidity, and financial conditions.

      It is  important  to note that  third  party oil and gas  purchasers  have
significant  incentives  to avoid  disruptions  arising from a Y2K failure.  For
example, most of these parties are under contractual obligations to purchase oil
and gas or  disperse  revenues  to Samson.  The  failure to do so will result in
contractual  and  statutory  penalties.  Therefore,  Dyco  believes  that  it is
unlikely that there will be material  third party  non-compliance  with purchase
and remittance obligations as a result of Y2K issues.

      4.   Remediation.   Where  Samson   perceives   significant  risk  of  Y2K
non-compliance that may have a material impact on it, and where the relationship
between  Samson and a vendor,  customer,  or  business  partner  permits,  joint
testing may be undertaken during 1999 to further identify these risks.

      5. Contingency  Planning.  In the unlikely event that material  production
disruptions  occur as a result of Y2K failures of third  parties,  the Program's
operating cash flow could be impacted.  This  contingency  will be factored into
deliberations on the level of quarterly cash  distributions  paid out during any
such period of cash flow disruption.

TO THE PARTNERS

DYCO OIL AND GAS PROGRAM 1984-2 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP


      In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheets and the related statements
of operations,  changes in partners'  capital and cash flows present fairly,  in
all material  respects,  the financial  position of the Dyco Oil and Gas Program
1984-2 Limited  Partnership,  a Minnesota limited  partnership,  at December 31,
1998 and 1997,  and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of
the three years in the period  ended  December  31,  1998,  in  conformity  with
generally accepted  accounting  principles.  These financial  statements are the
responsibility of the Program's management;  our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these  financial  statements  based on our audits.  We conducted  our
audits of these  financial  statements in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
auditing  standards  which  require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  financial  statements,   assessing  the
accounting  principles  used and significant  estimates made by management,  and
evaluating the overall  financial  statement  presentation.  We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

              DYCO OIL AND GAS PROGRAM 1984-2 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                         Notes to Financial Statements
             For the Years Ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996


1.    ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Organization and Nature of Operations

            The  Dyco  Oil and  Gas  Program  1984-2  Limited  Partnership  (the
      "Program"),  a Minnesota  limited  partnership,  commenced  operations  on
      November  5, 1984.  Dyco  Petroleum  Corporation  ("Dyco")  is the General
      Partner of the  Program.  Affiliates  of Dyco owned  1,909  (36.7%) of the
      Program's Units at December 31, 1998.

            The Program's sole business is the development and production of oil
      and gas with a concentration  on gas.  Substantially  all of the Program's
      gas reserves are being sold  regionally  in the "spot  market." Due to the
      highly  competitive  nature of the spot market,  prices on the spot market
      are  subject  to wide  seasonal  and  regional  pricing  fluctuations.  In
      addition,  such spot market sales are  generally  short-term in nature and
      are dependent upon the obtaining of  transportation  services  provided by
      pipelines.  The prices received from the Program's oil and gas are subject
      to influences such as global consumption and supply trends.


      Cash and Cash Equivalents

            The Program considers all highly liquid  investments with a maturity
      of three  months  or less  when  purchased  to be cash  equivalents.  Cash
      equivalents  are not  insured,  which  cause the  Program to be subject to
      risk.


      Credit Risk

            Accrued  oil and gas sales  which are due from a variety  of oil and
      gas purchasers subject the Program to a concentration of credit risk. Some
      of these purchasers are discussed in Note 3 - Major Customers.


      Oil and Gas Properties

            Oil and gas  operations are accounted for using the full cost method
      of accounting. All productive and non-productive costs associated with the
      acquisition,  exploration,  and  development  of oil and gas  reserves are
      capitalized.  Capitalized  costs are depleted on the gross revenue  method
      using estimates of proved reserves.  The full cost amortization  rates per
      equivalent Mcf of gas produced during the years ended





                                      -27-
<PAGE>





      December  31,  1998,  1997,  and  1996  were  $0.38,   $0.37,  and  $0.22,
      respectively.  The Program's calculation of depreciation,  depletion,  and
      amortization  includes  estimated  future  expenditures  to be incurred in
      developing  proved  reserves and estimated  dismantlement  and abandonment
      costs, net of estimated  salvage values. In the event the unamortized cost
      of oil and gas properties  being  amortized  exceeds the full cost ceiling
      (as defined by the Securities and Exchange  Commission ("SEC")) the excess
      is charged to expense in the year during which such excess  occurs.  Sales
      and  abandonments  of  properties  are  accounted  for as  adjustments  of
      capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments
      would significantly  alter the relationship  between capitalized costs and
      proved oil and gas reserves.


      Deferred Charge

            The Deferred Charge at December 31, 1998 and 1997  represents  costs
      deferred for lease  operating  expenses  incurred in  connection  with the
      Program's  underproduced  gas  imbalance  positions.   The  rate  used  in
      calculating  the deferred  charge is the average of the annual  production
      costs per Mcf. At December 31, 1998,  cumulative  total gas sales  volumes
      for  underproduced  wells were less than the Program's  pro-rata  share of
      total gas production from these wells by 66,929 Mcf,  resulting in prepaid
      lease  operating  expenses of $30,018.  At December 31,  1997,  cumulative
      total  gas  sales  volumes  for  underproduced  wells  were  less than the
      Program's  pro-rata  share of total gas  production  from  these  wells by
      74,049 Mcf, resulting in prepaid lease operating expenses of $24,362.


      Accrued Liability

            The  Accrued  Liability  at December  31,  1998 and 1997  represents
      charges accrued for lease operating  expenses  incurred in connection with
      the  Program's  overproduced  gas  imbalance  positions.  The rate used in
      calculating the accrued  liability is the average of the annual production
      costs per Mcf. At December 31, 1998,  cumulative  total gas sales  volumes
      for overproduced  wells exceeded the Program's pro-rata share of total gas
      production  from these wells by 22,722  Mcf,  resulting  in accrued  lease
      operating expenses of $10,191. At December 31, 1997,  cumulative total gas
      sales volumes for overproduced wells exceeded the Program's pro-rata share
      of total gas  production  from these  wells by 21,028  Mcf,  resulting  in
      accrued lease operating expenses of $6,918.






                                      -28-

      Oil and Gas Sales and Gas Imbalance Payable

            The Program's oil and condensate  production is sold,  title passed,
      and revenue  recognized  at or near the Program's  wells under  short-term
      purchase  contracts at prevailing  prices in accordance with  arrangements
      which are  customary in the oil industry.  Sales of gas  applicable to the
      Program's  interest in producing oil and gas leases are recorded as income
      when the gas is metered  and title  transferred  pursuant to the gas sales
      contracts  covering the Program's  interest in gas  reserves.  During such
      times as the  Program's  sales of gas exceed its pro rata  ownership  in a
      well,  such sales are recorded as income  unless total sales from the well
      have  exceeded  the  Program's  share  of  estimated  total  gas  reserves
      underlying  the  property  at which  time  such  excess is  recorded  as a
      liability. The rates per Mcf used to calculate this liability are based on
      the  average  gas  prices  received  for  the  volumes  at  the  time  the
      overproduction  occurred.  At December 31, 1998,  total sales exceeded the
      Program's  share of  estimated  total gas  reserves  on one well by $3,140
      (2,093  Mcf).  At December 31, 1997,  total sales  exceeded the  Program's
      share of estimated  total gas reserves on one well by $3,519  (2,346 Mcf).
      These amounts were recorded as gas imbalance payables at December 31, 1998
      and 1997 in accordance with the sales method.


      Use of Estimates in Financial Statements

            The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
      accepted  accounting  principles requires management to make estimates and
      assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
      disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities  at the  date  of the
      financial  statements  and the  reported  amounts of revenues and expenses
      during the  reporting  period.  Actual  results  could  differ  from those
      estimates.  Further,  the deferred charge, the gas imbalance payable,  and
      the accrued  liability all involve estimates which could materially differ
      from the actual amounts ultimately  realized or incurred in the near term.
      Oil and gas reserves (see Note 4) also involve significant estimates which
      could materially differ from the actual amounts ultimately realized.


      Income Taxes

            Income or loss for income tax purposes is  includable  in the income
      tax returns of the partners. Accordingly, no recognition has been given to
      income taxes in the accompanying financial statements.

2.    TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

            Under  the  terms of the  Program  Agreement,  Dyco is  entitled  to
      receive  a   reimbursement   for  all  direct  expenses  and  general  and
      administrative,  geological,  and engineering expenses it incurs on behalf
      of the  Partnership.  During the years ended December 31, 1998,  1997, and
      1996, such expenses totaled $68,090,  $72,475, and $69,850,  respectively,
      of which $56,472 was paid each year to Dyco and its affiliates.

            Affiliates  of  the  Program   operate   certain  of  the  Program's
      properties.  Their policy is to bill the Program for all customary charges
      and cost  reimbursements  associated with these activities,  together with
      any  compressor  rentals,  consulting,  or other services  provided.  Such
      charges are  comparable to third party charges in the area where the wells
      are located and are the same as charged to other working  interest  owners
      in the wells.


3.    MAJOR CUSTOMERS

            The following  purchaser  individually  accounted for 10% or more of
      the  combined  oil and gas  revenues  of the  Program  for the years ended
      December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996:

            Purchaser                    1998      1997     1996

              Marketing Company          98.9%     97.7%    96.5%

            In the  event  of  interruption  of  purchases  by this  significant
      customer  or  the  cessation  or  material   change  in   availability  of
      open-access  transportation by the Program's  pipeline  transporters,  the
      Program may encounter  difficulty in marketing its gas and in  maintaining
      historic sales levels.  Alternative  purchasers or transporters may not be
      readily available.


4.    SUPPLEMENTAL OIL AND GAS INFORMATION

            The  following  supplemental  information  regarding the oil and gas
      activities  of  the  Program  is  presented  pursuant  to  the  disclosure

            The process of estimating oil and gas reserves is complex, requiring
      significant   subjective   decisions  in  the   evaluation   of  available
      geological,  engineering,  and economic data for each reservoir.  The data
      for a given reservoir may change  substantially  over time as a result of,
      among other things,  additional development activity,  production history,
      and  viability  of   production   under   varying   economic   conditions;
      consequently,  it  is  reasonably  possible  that  material  revisions  to
      existing  reserve  estimates may occur in the near future.  Although every
      reasonable  effort  has been made to  ensure  that the  reserve  estimates
      reported  herein  represent the most  accurate  assessment  possible,  the
      significance  of  the  subjective  decisions  required  and  variances  in
      available data for various reservoirs make these estimates  generally less
      precise  than other  estimates  presented  in  connection  with  financial
      statement disclosures.  The Program's reserves were determined at December
      31,  1998  using oil and gas prices of $9.50 per barrel and $2.03 per Mcf,
      respectively.

             Compensation/Reimbursement to Dyco and its affiliates
                      Three Years Ended December 31, 1998

Type of Compensation/Reimbursement(1)                      Expense
-------------------------------------           -------------------------------
                                                 1998        1997        1996
                                                -------     -------     -------
Compensation:
   Operations                                     (2)         (2)         (2)

Reimbursements:
   General and Administrative,
      Geological, and Engineering
      Expenses and Direct
      Expenses(3)                               $56,472     $56,472     $56,472

----------
(1)   The  authority  for  all of such  compensation  and  reimbursement  is the
      Program  Agreement  of  the  Program.   With  respect  to  the  Operations
      activities noted in the table,  management believes that such compensation
      is equal to or less than that charged by unaffiliated  persons in the same
      geographic areas and under the same conditions.
(2)   Affiliates of the Program  serve as operator of a  significant  portion of
      the  Program's  wells.  Dyco,  as  General  Partner,  contracts  with such
      affiliates  for  services  as  operator of the wells.  As  operator,  such
      affiliates are  compensated at rates provided in the operating  agreements
      in effect and charged to all parties to such agreement.  The dollar amount
      of such  compensation paid by the Program to such affiliates is impossible
      to quantify as of the date of this Annual Report.
(3)   The  Program  reimburses  Dyco  and  its  affiliates  for  reasonable  and
      necessary general and administrative, geological, and engineering expenses
      and direct  expenses  incurred in  connection  with their  management  and
      operation of the Program. The directors,  officers,  and employees of Dyco
      and its  affiliates  receive no direct  remuneration  from the Program for
      their services to the Program. See "Salary Reimbursement Table" below. The
      allocable general and administrative, geological, and engineering expenses
      are apportioned on a reasonable  basis between the Program's  business and
      all other oil and gas  activities  of Dyco and its  affiliates,  including
      Dyco's  management  and  operation  of  affiliated  oil  and  gas  limited
      partnerships. The allocation to the Program of these costs is made by Dyco
      as General Partner.

      As noted in the  Compensation/Reimbursement  Table above,  the  directors,
officers,  and  employees  of  Dyco  and  their  affiliates  receive  no  direct
remuneration  from the Program for their services.  However,  to the extent such
services  represent direct  involvement with the Program,  as opposed to general
corporate  functions,  such persons' salaries are allocated to and reimbursed by
the  Program.  Such  allocation  to the  Program's  general and  administrative,
geological, and engineering expenses of the salaries of directors,

officers,  and employees of Dyco and its affiliates is based on internal records
maintained by Dyco and its affiliates, and represents investor relations, legal,
accounting,  data  processing,  management,  gas marketing  and other  functions
directly attributable to the Program's operations. The following table indicates
the  approximate  amount of general  and  administrative  expense  reimbursement
attributable to the salaries of the directors,  officers,  and employees of Dyco
and its affiliates for the three years ended December 31, 1998:

      Samson  maintains  necessary  inventories of new and used field equipment.
Samson may have provided  some of this  equipment for wells in which the Program
has an  interest.  This  equipment  and services was provided at prices or rates
equal  to or  less  than  those  normally  charged  in the  same  or  comparable
geographic  area by unaffiliated  persons or companies  dealing at arm's length.
The  operators of these wells bill the Program for a portion of such costs based
upon the Program's interest in the well.


ITEM 12.    SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

      The following table provides information as to the beneficial ownership of
the Program's Units as of March 1, 1999, by each  beneficial  owner of more than
5% of the issued  and  outstanding  Units and by the  directors,  officers,  and
affiliates  of Dyco.  The address of each of such persons is Samson  Plaza,  Two
West Second Street, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74103.

      All directors, officers, and
         affiliates of Dyco as a group

ITEM 13.    CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

      Certain affiliates of Dyco engage in oil and gas activities  independently
of the Program  which  result in  conflicts  of interest  that cannot be totally
eliminated.  The allocation of acquisition  and drilling  opportunities  and the
nature of the compensation  arrangements between the Program and such affiliates
also create potential conflicts of interest.  An affiliate of the Program owns a
significant  amount of the  Program's  Units and  therefore  has an  identity of
interest  with other  limited  partners  with respect to the  operations  of the
Program.

      In order to attempt to assure  limited  liability for limited  partners as
well as an orderly  conduct of business,  management of the Program is exercised
solely by Dyco. The Program Agreement grants Dyco broad discretionary  authority
with  respect  to  the  Program's   participation  in  drilling   prospects  and
expenditure  and control of funds,  including  borrowings.  The  provisions  are
similar to those contained in prospectuses and partnership  agreements for other
public oil and gas partnerships. Broad discretion as to




                                      -38-

general  management  of  the  Program  involves  circumstances  where  Dyco  has
conflicts  of  interest  and  where it must  allocate  costs  and  expenses,  or
opportunities, among the Program and other competing interests.

      Dyco does not devote all of its time, efforts,  and personnel  exclusively
to the  Program.  Furthermore,  the  Program  does not have any  employees,  but
instead relies on the personnel of Samson. The Program thus competes with Samson
(including  other  oil and gas  programs)  for the  time and  resources  of such
personnel.  Samson  devotes  such time and  personnel to the  management  of the
Program as are indicated by the  circumstances and as are consistent with Dyco's
fiduciary duties.

      Affiliates  of the Program  are solely  responsible  for the  negotiation,
administration,  and  enforcement of oil and gas sales  agreements  covering the
Program's  leasehold  interests.  Because  affiliates of the Program who provide
services to the  Program  have  fiduciary  or other  duties to other  members of
Samson,  contract  amendments and  negotiating  positions taken by them in their
effort to enforce  contracts with purchasers may not  necessarily  represent the
positions that the Program would take if it were to administer its own contracts
without involvement with other members of Samson. On the other hand,  management
believes that the Program's  negotiating strength and contractual positions have
been enhanced by virtue of its affiliation with Samson.

      Samson  Resources  Company,  an  affiliate  of  Dyco,  ("Resources")  owns
approximately  37% of the Program's  outstanding  Units as of March 1, 1999. The
Program Agreement permits Resources to independently vote its Units.  Resources'
significant  Unit ownership will therefore  likely  determine the outcome of any
matter submitted for a vote of the Limited Partners.
