PART I.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
The Geodyne Institutional/Pension Energy Income P-1 Limited Partnership
(the "P-1 Partnership") is a limited partnership formed under the Texas Revised
Limited Partnership Act and the Geodyne Institutional/Pension Energy Income
Limited Partnership P-3 (the "P-3 Partnership"), Geodyne Institutional/Pension
Energy Income Limited Partnership P-4 (the "P-4 Partnership"), Geodyne
Institutional/Pension Energy Income Limited Partnership P-5 (the "P-5
Partnership"), and Geodyne Institutional/Pension Energy Income Limited
Partnership P-6 (the "P-6 Partnership") are limited partnerships formed under
the Oklahoma Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act (collectively, the
"Partnerships"). Each Partnership is composed of Geodyne Resources, Inc.
("Geodyne"), a Delaware corporation, as the general partner, Geodyne
Institutional Depository Company, a Delaware corporation, as the sole initial
limited partner, and public investors as substitute limited partners (the
"Limited Partners"). The Partnerships commenced operations on the dates set
forth below:
Date of
Partnership Activation
----------- -----------------
P-1 October 25, 1988
P-3 May 10, 1989
P-4 November 21, 1989
P-5 February 27, 1990
P-6 September 5, 1990
Immediately following activation, each Partnership invested as a general
partner in a separate Oklahoma general partnership which actually conducts the
Partnerships' operations. Geodyne serves as managing partner of such general
partnerships. Unless the context indicates otherwise, all references to any
single Partnership or all of the Partnerships in this Annual Report on Form 10-K
("Annual Report") are references to the Partnership and its related general
partnership, collectively. In addition, unless the context indicates otherwise,
all references to the "General Partner" in this Annual Report are references to
Geodyne as the general partner of the Partnerships, and as the managing partner
of the related general partnerships.
The General Partner currently serves as general partner of 26 limited
partnerships, including the Partnerships. The General Partner is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Samson Investment Company. Samson Investment Company and its
various corporate subsidiaries, including the General Partner (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.
-4-
At December 31, 2003, Samson owned interests in approximately 14,000 oil and gas
wells located in 20 states of the United States and the countries of Canada,
Venezuela, Russia, and Australia. At December 31, 2003, Samson operated
approximately 4,000 oil and gas wells located in 14 states of the United States,
as well as Canada, Venezuela, Russia, and Australia.
The Partnerships are currently engaged in the business of owning net
profits and royalty interests in oil and gas properties located in the
continental United States. Most of the net profits interests acquired by the
Partnerships have been carved out of working interests in producing properties
("Working Interests") which were acquired by affiliated oil and gas investment
programs (the "Affiliated Programs"). Net profits interests entitle the
Partnerships to a share of net revenues from producing properties measured by a
specific percentage of the net profits realized by such Affiliated Programs on
those properties. Except where otherwise noted, references to certain
operational activities of the Partnerships are actually the activities of the
Affiliated Programs. As the holder of a net profits interest, a Partnership is
not liable to pay any amount by which oil and gas operating costs and expenses
exceed revenues for any period, although any deficit, together with interest, is
applied to reduce the amounts payable to the Partnership in subsequent periods.
As used throughout this Annual Report, the Partnerships' net profits and royalty
interests in oil and gas sales will be referred to as "Net Profits" and the
Partnerships' net profits and royalty interests in oil and gas properties will
be collectively referred to as "Net Profits Interests."
In order to prudently manage the properties which are burdened by the
Partnerships' Net Profits Interests, it may be appropriate for drilling
operations to be conducted on such properties. Since the Partnerships' Net
Profits are calculated after considering such costs, the Partnerships also
indirectly engage in development drilling.
As limited partnerships, the Partnerships have no officers, directors, or
employees. They rely instead on the personnel of the General Partner and Samson.
As of February 15, 2004, Samson employed approximately 1,000 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 the General Partner, see "Item
10. Directors and Executive Officers of the General Partner."
-5-
The General Partner's and the Partnerships' 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 (888) 436-3963 [(888) GEODYNE].
Pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreements for the Partnerships
(the "Partnership Agreements"), the Partnerships are scheduled to terminate on
December 31, 2005. However, the Partnership Agreements provide that the General
Partner may extend the term of each Partnership for up to five periods of two
years each. The General Partner has not yet determined whether it will extend
the terms of any of the Partnerships.
Funding
Although the partnership agreement for each Partnership (the "Partnership
Agreement") permits each Partnership to incur borrowings, operations and
expenses are currently funded out of revenues from each Partnership's Net
Profits Interests. The General Partner may, but is not required to, advance
funds to a Partnership for the same purposes for which Partnership borrowings
are authorized.
Principal Products Produced and Services Rendered
The Partnerships' sole business is the holding of certain Net Profits
Interests. The Partnerships do not refine or otherwise process crude oil and
condensate. The Partnerships do not hold any patents, trademarks, licenses, or
concessions and are not a party to any government contracts. The Partnerships
have no backlog of orders and do not participate in research and development
activities. The Partnerships are not presently encountering shortages of
oilfield tubular goods, compressors, production material, or other equipment.
However, recent substantial increases in the price of steel may increase the
costs of any future workover, recompletion or drilling activities indirectly
conducted by the Partnerships.
Competition and Marketing
The primary source of liquidity and Partnership cash distributions comes
from the net revenues generated from the sale of oil and gas produced from the
Partnerships' oil and gas properties. The level of net revenues is highly
dependent upon the total volumes of oil and natural gas sold. Oil and gas
reserves are depleting assets and will experience production declines over time,
thereby likely resulting in reduced net revenues. The level of net revenues is
also highly dependent upon the prices received for oil and gas sales, which
prices have historically been very volatile and may continue to be so.
-6-
Additionally, lower oil and natural gas prices may reduce the amount of oil
and gas that is economic to produce and reduce the Partnerships' revenues and
cash flow. Various factors beyond the Partnerships' control will affect prices
for oil and natural gas, such as:
* Worldwide and domestic supplies of oil and natural gas;
* The ability of the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting
Countries ("OPEC") to agree upon and maintain oil prices and
production quotas;
* Political instability or armed conflict in oil-producing regions or
around major shipping areas;
* The level of consumer demand and overall economic activity;
* The competitiveness of alternative fuels;
* Weather conditions;
* The availability of pipelines for transportation; and
* Domestic and foreign government regulations and taxes.
It is not possible to predict the future direction of oil or natural gas
prices or whether the above discussed trends will remain. Operating costs,
including General and Administrative Expenses, may not decline over time or may
experience only a gradual decline, thus adversely affecting net revenues as
either production or oil and natural gas prices decline. In any particular
period, net revenues may also be affected by either the receipt of proceeds from
property sales or the incursion of additional costs as a result of well
workovers, recompletions, new well drilling, and other events.
Significant Customers
The following customers accounted for ten percent or more of the oil and
gas sales attributable to the Partnerships' Net Profits Interests during the
year ended December 31, 2003:
Partnership Customer Percentage
----------- ----------------------------- ----------
P-1 Cinergy Marketing Company
("Cinergy") 14.3%
P-3 Cinergy 13.2%
P-4 Eaglwing Trading, Inc. 25.9%
Valero Industrial Gas LP 22.8%
P-5 Cinergy 27.0%
Enogex Services Corporation 18.3%
ONEOK Field Services Company 14.4%
Duke Energy Field Services
Inc. ("Duke") 13.6%
-7-
P-6 Duke 22.9%
Kinder Morgan, Inc. 18.0%
Cinergy 15.2%
In the event of interruption of purchases by one or more of these
significant customers or the cessation or material change in availability of
open access transportation by pipeline transporters, the Partnerships may
encounter difficulty in marketing gas and in maintaining historic sales levels.
Management does not expect any of its open access transporters to seek
authorization to terminate their transportation services. Even if the services
were terminated, management believes that alternatives would be available
whereby the Partnerships would be able to continue to market their gas.
The Partnerships' principal customers for crude oil production are
refiners and other companies which have pipeline facilities near the producing
properties in which the Partnerships own Net Profits Interests. In the event
pipeline facilities are not conveniently available to production areas, crude
oil is usually trucked by purchasers to storage facilities.
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 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. Although virtually all of
the natural gas production affecting the Partnerships 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
Partnerships' Net Profits and projections of future Net Profits.
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.
-8-
Regulation of the Environment - Oil and gas 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 decrease the Partnerships' Net Profits. Management
anticipates that various local, state, and federal environmental control
agencies will have an increasing impact on oil and gas operations.
Insurance Coverage
Exploration for and production of oil and gas are subject to many inherent
risks, including blowouts, pollution, fires, and other casualties. The
Partnerships maintain insurance coverage as is customary for entities of a
similar size engaged in similar operations, but losses can occur from
uninsurable risks or in amounts in excess of existing insurance coverage. In
particular, many types of pollution and contamination can exist, undiscovered,
for long periods of time and can result in substantial environmental liabilities
which are not insured. The occurrence of an event which is not fully covered by
insurance could have a material adverse effect on the Partnerships' financial
condition and results of operations in that it could negatively impact the cash
flow received from the Net Profits Interests.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Well Statistics
The following table sets forth the number of productive wells as of
December 31, 2003 in which the Partnerships had a Net Profits Interest which was
carved from a working interest.

(1) The designation of a well as an oil well or gas well is made by the General
Partner 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.

Proved Reserves and Net Present Value
The following table sets forth each Partnership's estimated proved oil and
gas reserves and net present value therefrom as of December 31, 2003 which were
attributable to the Partnerships' Net Profits Interests. The schedule of
quantities of proved oil and gas reserves was prepared by the General Partner in
accordance with the rules prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC"). Certain reserve information was reviewed by Ryder Scott Company,
L.P. ("Ryder Scott"), an independent petroleum engineering firm. 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 Partnerships' proved reserves was calculated on the
basis of current costs and prices at December 31, 2003. Such prices were not
escalated except in certain circumstances where escalations were fixed and
readily determinable in accordance with applicable contract provisions. Oil and
gas prices at December 31, 2003 ($29.25 per barrel and $5.77 per Mcf,
respectively) were higher than the prices in effect on December 31, 2002 ($28.00
per barrel and $4.74 per Mcf, respectively). This increase in oil and gas prices
has caused the estimates of remaining economically recoverable reserves, as well
as the values placed on said reserves, at December 31, 2003 to be higher than
such estimates and values at December 31, 2002. The prices used in calculating
the net present value attributable to the Partnerships' proved reserves do not
necessarily reflect market prices for oil and gas production subsequent to
December 31, 2003. There can be no assurance that the prices used in calculating
the net present value of the Partnerships' proved reserves at December 31, 2003
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.

Following is a description of those oil and gas properties whose revisions
in the estimated proved reserves (based on equivalent barrels of oil) as of
December 31, 2003, as compared to December 31, 2002, were significant to the
Partnerships.
The P-4 Partnership's estimated proved reserves increased approximately
55,000 barrels of oil equivalent in the Amoco Fee #3 located in Jefferson Davis
Parish, Louisiana from December 31, 2002 to December 31, 2003. This increase was
primarily due to a revised forecast in reserves based on actual production
experience.
-21-
Title to Oil and Gas Properties
Management believes that the Partnerships have satisfactory title to their
Net Profits Interests. Record title to all of the properties subject to the
Partnerships' Net Profits Interests is held by either the Partnerships or
Geodyne Nominee Corporation, an affiliate of the General Partner.
Title to the Partnerships' Net Profits Interests 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 Partnerships' Net Profits Interests therein or materially interfere with
their use in the operation of the Partnerships' business.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
To the knowledge of the General Partner, neither the General Partner nor
the Partnerships or their properties are subject to any litigation, the results
of which would have a material effect on the Partnerships' or the General
Partner'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 of any
Partnership during 2003.
PART II.
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR UNITS AND RELATED LIMITED PARTNER MATTERS
As of March 3, 2004, the number of Units outstanding and the approximate
number of Limited Partners of record in the Partnerships were as follows:

Partnership Units Partners
----------- --------- --------
P-1 108,074 708
P-3 169,637 1,213
P-4 126,306 820
P-5 118,449 897
P-6 143,041 691
-22-
Units were initially sold for a price of $100. The Units are not traded on
any exchange and there is no public trading market for them. The General Partner
is aware of certain transfers of Units between unrelated parties, some of which
are facilitated by secondary trading firms and matching services. In addition,
as further described below, the General Partner is aware of certain "4.9% tender
offers" which have been made for the Units. The General Partner believes that
the transfers between unrelated parties have been limited and sporadic in number
and volume. Other than trades facilitated by certain secondary trading firms and
matching services, no organized trading market for Units exists and none is
expected to develop. Due to the nature of these transactions, the General
Partner has no verifiable information regarding prices at which Units have been
transferred. Further, a transferee may not become a substitute Limited Partner
without the consent of the General Partner.
Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreements, the General Partner
is obligated to annually issue a repurchase offer based on the estimated future
net revenues from the Partnerships' reserves and is calculated pursuant to the
terms of the Partnership Agreements. Such repurchase offer is recalculated
monthly in order to reflect cash distributions to the Limited Partners and
extraordinary events. The following table sets forth the General Partner's
repurchase offer per Unit as of the periods indicated. For purposes of this
Annual Report, a Unit represents an initial subscription of $100 to a
Partnership.

In addition to this repurchase offer, some of the Partnerships have been
subject to "4.9% tender offers" from several third parties. The General Partner
does not know the terms of these offers or the prices received by the Limited
Partners who accepted these offers.
Cash Distributions
Cash distributions are primarily dependent upon a Partnership's cash
receipts from its Net Profits Interests and cash requirements of the
Partnership. Distributable cash is determined by the General Partner at the end
of each calendar quarter and distributed to the
-23-
Limited Partners within 45 days after the end of the quarter. Distributions are
restricted to cash on hand less amounts required to be retained out of such cash
as determined in the sole judgment of the General Partner to pay costs,
expenses, or other Partnership obligations whether accrued or anticipated to
accrue. In certain instances, the General Partner may not distribute the full
amount of cash receipts which might otherwise be available for distribution in
an effort to equalize or stabilize the amounts of quarterly distributions. Any
available amounts not distributed are invested and the interest or income
thereon is for the accounts of the Limited Partners.
The following is a summary of cash distributions paid to the Limited
Partners during 2002 and 2003 and the first quarter of 2004:

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 Partnerships.
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 primary source of
liquidity and Partnership cash distributions comes from the net revenues
generated from the sale of oil and gas produced from the Partnerships' oil and
gas properties. The level of net revenues is highly dependent upon the prices
received for oil and gas sales, which prices have historically been very
volatile and may continue to be so. Additionally, lower oil and natural gas
prices may reduce the amount of oil and gas that is economic to produce and
reduce the Partnerships' revenues and cash flow. Various factors beyond the
Partnerships' control will affect prices for oil and natural gas, such as:
-30-
* Worldwide and domestic supplies of oil and natural gas;
* The ability of the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting
Countries ("OPEC") to agree upon and maintain oil prices and
production quotas;
* Political instability or armed conflict in oil-producing regions or
around major shipping areas;
* The level of consumer demand and overall economic activity;
* The competitiveness of alternative fuels;
* Weather conditions;
* The availability of pipelines for transportation; and
* Domestic and foreign government regulations and taxes.
It is not possible to predict the future direction of oil or natural gas
prices or whether the above discussed trends will remain. Operating costs,
including General and Administrative Expenses, may not decline over time or may
experience only a gradual decline, thus adversely affecting net revenues as
either production or oil and natural gas prices decline. In any particular
period, net revenues may also be affected by either the receipt of proceeds from
property sales or the incursion of additional costs as a result of well
workovers, recompletions, new well drilling, and other events.
In addition to pricing, the level of net revenues is also highly dependent
upon the total volumes of oil and natural gas sold. Oil and gas reserves are
depleting assets and will experience production declines over time, thereby
likely resulting in reduced net revenues. Despite this general trend of
declining production, several factors can cause the volumes of oil and gas sold
to increase or decrease at an even greater rate over a given period. These
factors include, but are not limited to, (i) geophysical conditions which cause
an acceleration of the decline in production, (ii) the shutting in of wells (or
the opening of previously shut-in wells) due to low oil and gas prices,
mechanical difficulties, loss of a market or transportation, or performance of
workovers, recompletions, or other operations in the well, (iii) prior period
volume adjustments (either positive or negative) made by purchasers of the
production, (iv) ownership adjustments in accordance with agreements governing
the operation or ownership of the well (such as adjustments that occur at
payout), and (v) completion of enhanced recovery projects which increase
production for the well. Many of these factors are very significant as related
to a single well or as related to many wells over a short period of time.
However, due to the large number of wells owned by the Partnerships, these
factors are generally not material as compared to the normal decline in
production experienced on all remaining wells.

Total Net Profits increased $376,889 (37.9%) in 2003 as compared to 2002.
Of this increase, approximately $86,000 and $448,000, respectively, were related
to increases in the average prices of oil and gas sold. These increases were
partially offset by decreases of approximately (i) $105,000 related to an
increase in production expenses and (ii) $48,000 related to a decrease in
volumes of oil sold. Volumes of oil and gas sold decreased 2,028 barrels and
1,355 Mcf, respectively, in 2003 as compared to 2002. The increase in production
expenses was primarily due to (i) an increase in production taxes associated
with the increase in oil and gas sales and (ii) workover expenses incurred on
several wells during 2003. Average oil and gas prices increased to $28.35 per
barrel and $4.25 per Mcf, respectively, in 2003 from $23.75 per barrel and $2.68
per Mcf, respectively, in 2002.
Depletion of Net Profits Interests decreased $35,346 (30.7%) in 2003 as
compared to 2002. This decrease was primarily due to (i) upward revisions in the
estimates of remaining oil and gas reserves at December 31, 2003 and (ii) two
significant wells being fully depleted in 2002 due to the lack of remaining
economically recoverable reserves. As a percentage of Net Profits, this expense
decreased to 5.8% in 2003 from 11.6% in 2002. This percentage decrease was
primarily due to (i) the increases in the average prices of oil and gas sold and
(ii) the dollar decrease in Depletion of Net Profits Interests.
General and administrative expenses remained relatively constant in 2003
and 2002. As a percentage of Net Profits, these expenses decreased to 10.4% in
2003 from 14.4% in 2002. This percentage decrease was primarily due to the
increase in Net Profits.

--------------------------------------
Total Net Profits decreased $302,240 (23.3%) in 2002 as compared to 2001.
Of this decrease, approximately (i) $268,000 was related to a decrease in the
average price of gas sold and (ii) $59,000 was related to a decrease in volumes
of oil sold. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of
approximately $52,000 related to a decrease in production expenses. Volumes of
oil and gas sold decreased 2,421 barrels and 4,860 Mcf, respectively, in 2002 as
compared to 2001. The decrease in volumes of oil sold was primarily due to
normal declines in production. The decrease in production expenses was primarily
due to (i) workover expenses incurred on several wells during 2001 and (ii) a
decrease in production taxes associated with the decrease in oil and gas sales.
Average oil and gas prices decreased to $23.75 per barrel and $2.68 per Mcf,
respectively, in 2002 from $24.22 per barrel and $3.62 per Mcf, respectively, in
2001.
Depletion of Net Profits Interests decreased $53,312 (31.6%) in 2002 as
compared to 2001. This decrease was primarily due to (i) several wells being
fully depleted in 2001 due to lack of remaining economically recoverable
reserves and (ii) the decreases in volumes of oil and gas sold. As a percentage
of Net Profits, this expense decreased to 11.6% in 2002 from 13.0% in 2001. This
percentage decrease was primarily due to the dollar decrease in Depletion of Net
Profits Interests.
General and administrative expenses increased $3,789 (2.7%) in 2002 as
compared to 2001. As a percentage of Net Profits, these expenses increased to

Total Net Profits increased $141,061 (9.9%) in 2003 as compared to 2002.
Of this increase approximately (i) $117,000 and $616,000, respectively, were
related to increases in the average prices of oil and gas sold and (ii) $46,000
was related to a decrease in production expenses. These increases were partially
offset by decreases of approximately $112,000 and $526,000, respectively,
related to decreases in volumes of oil and gas sold. Volumes of oil and gas sold
decreased 4,615 barrels and 186,019 Mcf, respectively, in 2003 as compared to
2002. The decrease in volumes of oil sold was primarily due to normal declines
in production. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in production
during 2003 on one significant well due to the successful workover of that well
in mid 2002. The decrease in volumes of gas sold was primarily due to (i)
positive prior period gas balancing adjustments on two significant wells during
2002, (ii) normal declines in production, and (iii) a substantial decline in
production on one significant well following a workover of that well in early
2002. The well with a substantial decline in production is not expected to
return to its previous high levels of production. The decrease in production
expense was primarily due to a decrease in lease operating expenses associated
with the decreases in volumes of oil and gas sold. Average oil and gas prices
increased to $29.66 per barrel and $5.21 per Mcf, respectively, in 2003 from
$24.19 per barrel and $2.83 per Mcf, respectively, in 2002.
Depletion of Net Profits Interests decreased $176,418 (65.7%) in 2003 as
compared to 2002. This decrease was primarily due to (i) the decreases in
volumes of oil and gas sold, (ii) several wells being fully depleted in 2002 due
to the lack of

remaining economically recoverable reserves, and (iii) upward revisions in the
estimates of remaining oil and gas reserves at December 31, 2003. As a
percentage of Net Profits, this expense decreased to 5.9% in 2003 from 18.8% in
2002. This percentage decrease was primarily due to the dollar decrease in
depletion of Net Profits Interests.
General and administrative expenses increased $2,382 (1.5%) in 2003 as

to Year Ended December 31, 2001
--------------------------------------
Total Net Profits decreased $710,199 (33.2%) in 2002 as compared to 2001.
Of this decrease, approximately (i) $654,000 was related to a decrease in the
average price of gas sold and (ii) $318,000 was related to a decrease in volumes
of oil sold. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of
approximately $242,000 related to an increase in volumes of gas sold. Volumes of
oil sold decreased 12,880 barrels, while volumes of gas sold increased 56,201
Mcf in 2002 as compared to 2001. The decrease in volumes of oil sold was
primarily due to (i) normal declines in production and (ii) production
difficulties on one significant well during 2002. The increase in volumes of gas
sold was primarily due to (i) positive prior period gas balancing adjustments on
two significant wells during 2002, (ii) an increase in production on one
significant well due to the workover of that well during late 2001, and (iii)
the P-4 Partnership receiving an increased percentage of sales on another
significant well during 2002 due to gas balancing. These increases were
partially offset by (i) normal declines in production and (ii) depletion of all
gas reserves on one significant well during 2002. As of the date of this Annual
Report, management does not expect the gas balancing adjustment to continue for
the foreseeable future. Average oil and gas prices decreased to $24.19 per
barrel and $2.83 per Mcf, respectively, in 2002 from $24.66 per barrel and $4.30
per Mcf, respectively, in 2001.
Depletion of Net Profits Interests increased $21,228 (8.6%) in 2002 as
compared to 2001. This increase was primarily due to (i) downward revisions in
the estimates of remaining oil reserves at December 31, 2002 and (ii) several
other wells being fully depleted in 2002 due to the lack of remaining
economically recoverable reserves. These increases were partially offset by two
significant wells being fully depleted in 2001 due to the lack of remaining
economically recoverable reserves. As a
-36-
percentage of Net Profits, this expense increased to 18.8% in 2002 from 11.5% in
2001. This percentage increase was primarily due to the decreases in the average
prices of oil and gas sold.

Total Net Profits increased $394,868 (44.6%) in 2003 as compared to 2002.
Of this increase, approximately $560,000 was related to an increase in the
average price of gas sold, which increase was partially offset by a decrease of
approximately $208,000 related to a decrease in volumes of gas sold. Volumes of
oil sold increased 141 barrels, while volumes of gas sold decreased 72,933 Mcf
in 2003 as compared to 2002. The decrease in volumes of gas sold was primarily
due to (i) normal declines in production and (ii) the shutting-in of two
significant wells during 2003 in order to perform workovers on those wells. One
of the shut-in wells has already returned to production and the operator has not
yet determined when the other shut-in well will return to production. These
decreases were partially offset by the successful completion of one significant
well in early 2003. Average oil and gas prices increased to $30.01 per barrel
and $4.64 per Mcf, respectively, in 2003 from $24.14 per barrel and $2.85 per
Mcf, respectively, in 2002.
Depletion of Net Profits Interests decreased $23,575 (22.8%) in 2003 as

Profits Interests are not reinvested in productive assets. Assuming 2003
production levels for future years, the Partnerships' proved reserve quantities
at December 31, 2003 would have the following remaining lives:
-41-
Partnership Gas-Years Oil-Years
----------- --------- ---------
P-1 8.0 11.2
P-3 8.7 11.6
P-4 8.1 3.1
P-5 7.5 7.5
P-6 7.1 7.9
These life of reserves estimates are based on the current estimates of remaining
oil and gas reserves. See "Item 2. Properties" for a discussion of these reserve
estimates. Any decrease from the high oil and gas prices at December 31, 2003
may cause a decrease in the estimated life of said reserves.
The Partnerships' available capital from the Limited Partners'
subscriptions has been spent on Net Profits Interests and there should be no
further material capital resource commitments in the future. The Partnerships
have no debt commitments.
The Partnerships sold certain Net Profits Interests during 2003, 2002, and
2001. These sales were made by the General Partner after giving due
consideration to both the offer price and the General Partner's estimate of the
underlying property's remaining proved reserves and future operating costs. Net
proceeds from the sales were distributed to the Partnerships and included in the
calculation of the Partnerships' cash distributions for the quarter immediately
following the Partnerships' receipt of the proceeds. The amount of such proceeds
from the sale of Net Profits Interest during 2003, 2002, and 2001, were as
follows:
Partnership 2003 2002 2001
----------- ------- ------- -------
P-1 $45,230 $40,636 $17,521
P-3 57,301 51,341 23,925
P-4 938 - 3,414
P-5 8,657 10,398 43,097
P-6 5,212 11,319 52,686
There can be no assurance as to the amount of the Partnerships' future
cash distributions. The Partnerships' ability to make cash distributions depends
primarily upon the level of available cash flow generated by the Partnerships'
Net Profits Interests, which will be affected (either positively or negatively)
by many factors beyond the control of the Partnerships, 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 Partnerships are not replacing production. The Partnerships'
quantity of proved
-42-
reserves has been reduced by the sale of Net Profits Interests; therefore, it is
possible that the Partnerships' future cash distributions will decline as a
result of a reduction of the Partnerships' reserve base.
Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreements, the Partnerships are
scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2005. However, the Partnership Agreements
provide that the General Partner may extend the term of each Partnership for up
to five periods of two years each. The General Partner has not yet determined
whether it will extend the terms of any of the Partnerships.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Partnerships do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations
The Partnerships do not have any contractual obligations of the type
required to be disclosed under this heading.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Partnerships follow the successful efforts method of accounting for
their Net Profits Interests. Under the successful efforts method, the
Partnerships capitalize all acquisition costs. Such acquisition costs include
costs incurred by the Partnerships or the General Partner to acquire a Net
Profits Interest, 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 net acquisition cost to the Partnerships of the
Net Profits Interests in properties acquired by the General Partner consists of
the cost of acquiring the underlying properties adjusted for the net cash
results of operations, including any interest incurred to finance the
acquisition, for the period of time the properties are held by the General
Partner.
Depletion of the cost of Net Profits Interests is computed on the
units-of-production method. The Partnerships' calculation of depletion of its
Net Profits Interests includes estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs,
net of estimated salvage values related to the underlying properties in which
the Partnership has a Net Profits Interest.
The Partnerships evaluate the recoverability of the carrying costs of
their Net Profits Interests in proved oil and gas properties for each oil and
gas field (rather than separately for
-43-
each well). If the unamortized costs of a Net Profits Interest within a field
exceeds the expected undiscounted future cash flows from such Net Profits
Interest, the cost of the Net Profits Interest is written down to fair value,
which is determined by using the discounted future cash flows from the Net
Profits Interest.
Revenues from a Net Profits Interest consist of a share of the oil and gas
sales of the property, less operating and production expenses. The Partnerships
accrue for oil and gas revenues less expenses from the Net Profits Interests.
Sales of gas applicable to the Net Profits Interests are recorded as revenue
when the gas is metered and title transferred pursuant to the gas sales
contracts. During such times as sales of gas exceed a Partnership's pro rata Net
Profits Interest in a well, such sales are recorded as revenue unless total
sales from the well have exceeded the Partnership's share of estimated total gas
reserves attributable to the underlying 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 price received for the volumes at the time the
overproduction occurred. This also approximates the price for which the
Partnerships are currently settling this liability. This liability is recorded
as a reduction of accounts receivable.
Also included in accounts receivable(payable)-Net Profits are amounts
which represent costs deferred or accrued for Net Profits relating to lease
operating expenses incurred in connection with the net underproduced or
overproduced gas imbalance positions. The rate used in calculating the deferred
charge or accrued liability is the average annual production costs per Mcf.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Below is a brief description of Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS")
recently issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") which may
have an impact on the Partnerships' future results of operations and financial
position.
In July 2001, the FASB issued FAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2002 (January 1, 2003 for the Partnerships). On January 1, 2003, the
Partnerships adopted FAS No. 143 and recorded an increase in Net Profits
Interests, an increase (decrease) in net income for the cumulative effect of the
change in accounting principle, and an asset retirement obligation, resulting in
a decrease of accounts receivable - Net Profits, in the following approximate
amounts for each Partnership:
-44-
Increase
(Decrease) in
Net Income for
Increase in Change in Asset
Net Profits Accounting Retirement
Partnership Interests Principle Obligation
- ----------- ----------- -------------- ----------
P-1 $ 59,000 $4,000 $ 55,000
P-3 99,000 4,000 95,000
P-4 54,000 ( 400) 54,000
P-5 72,000 3,000 69,000
P-6 206,000 1,000 205,000
These amounts differ significantly from the estimates disclosed in the
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 due to a
revision of the methodology used in calculating the change in Net Profits
Interests.
The asset retirement obligation is adjusted upwards each quarter in order
to recognize accretion of the time-related discount factor. For 2003, the P-1,
P-3, P-4, P-5, and P-6 Partnerships recognized approximately $3,000, $5,000,
$5,000, $3,000, and $9,000 of an increase in depletion of Net Profits Interests,
which was comprised of accretion of the asset retirement obligation and
depletion of the increase in Net Profits Interests.
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 Partnerships in
2003. 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."
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
The Partnerships do not hold any market risk sensitive instruments.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the principal
executive officer and principal financial officer conducted an evaluation of the
Partnerships' disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934). Based on this
evaluation, such officers concluded that the Partnerships' disclosure controls
and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed
by the Partnerships in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized, and reported accurately and within the time periods
specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

Audit Committee Financial Expert
The Partnerships are not required by SEC regulations or otherwise to
maintain an audit committee. The board of directors of the General Partner
consists of one person and therefore serves as its audit committee. There is not
an audit committee financial expert, as defined in the SEC regulations, serving
on the General Partner's board of directors.
Code of Ethics
The General Partner has adopted a Code of Ethics which applies to all of
its executive officers, including those persons who perform the functions of
principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal
accounting officer. The Partnerships will provide, free of charge, a copy of
this Code of Ethics to any person upon receipt of a written request mailed to
Geodyne Resources, Inc., Samson Plaza, Two West Second Street, Tulsa, OK 74103.
Such request must include the address to which the Code of Ethics should be
mailed.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The General Partner and its affiliates are reimbursed for actual general
and administrative costs and operating costs incurred and attributable to the
conduct of the business affairs and operations of the Partnerships, computed on
a cost basis, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Such reimbursed costs and expenses allocated to the
-47-
Partnerships include office rent, secretarial, employee compensation and
benefits, travel and communication costs, fees for professional services, and
other items generally classified as general or administrative expense. When
actual costs incurred benefit other Partnerships and affiliates, the allocation
of costs is based on the relationship of the Partnerships' reserves to the total
reserves owned by all Partnerships and affiliates. The amount of general and
administrative expense allocated to the General Partner and its affiliates and
charged to each Partnership during 2003, 2002, and 2001, is set forth in the
table below. Although the actual costs incurred by the General Partner and its
affiliates have fluctuated during the three years presented, the amounts charged
to the Partnerships have not fluctuated due to expense limitations imposed by
the Partnership Agreements.
Partnership 2003 2002 2001
----------- -------- -------- --------
P-1 $113,760 $113,760 $113,760
