The previously approved 6 include some that should not have been approved
(e.g., London Electric) and have subsequently come off the list.
Additionally, my recollection is that we agreed on 25 for EOL at the
discussion in Houston. Credit and Legal Europe have approved that there is
only one list, either we can trade it or not. I have yet to understand why
this may not be true for legal in the states but if there is some difficulty
in approving additional US credits for the launch, we can replace these with
European names to get up to the full 25. I am sure that Mark will be in
contact with the office regardless of whether he is physically there or not.
I will follow up first thing in the am Houston time. If we cannot track down
Taylor, I will call Haedicke directly.

Bryan,
I believe Mark Taylor is out of the office until Wednesday.
At this point, I believe there are 6 approved Reference Entities for
EnronOnline.
We will add more up to the previously discussed 20 as approvals are received.

How kind of you and Enron to think about employees like myself who have lost
a beloved family member and who are having a hard time during this holiday
season. Dr. Williams' session below was very helpful, and I ran into 3
fellow employees that I work with that I didn't even know were going through
a similar situation. Thank you very much.
Happy Holidays to you and yours.

We missed you guys at the demo on Tuesday. I had some questions on the OUA &
password application:
1) On the HPL Online password application: I would be in favor of not
including the check verification regarding exchange or view access.
2) On the OUA: In the third & fourth paragraph on page 1, it mentions that
counterparty has an existing transportation service contract with HPL.
Some Operators on HPL may not have a service agreement with HPL. It also
mentions service contracts in section #1 and section #4.
3) On the OUA: In section #7 - Confidentiality, a reference is made to
6(b). I could not find a 6(b) anywhere in the document. Also in section
#8 - General, a reference is made to 6(e) and 7(e). I could not find
either anywhere.
Other than the above items, both doc's look real good. thanks for your help.

Jackie,
What does MOPS show for the days in question? It would be incorrect to add
any days to the Adonis ticket mentioned below. It sounds as if the meter was
allocated incorrectly in POPS and/or a deal was not pathed correctly in
MOPS. Let me know what you find in MOPS.

Subject: Meter 984132 for 1/16/99
Here is the issue for 1/16/99 at meter 984132.
20,000 mmbtu were confirmed for Adonis in POPS. 10,000 mmbtu on day 5 and
day 16. Day 16 is not valid for deal 51862 (track id 6155), which is where
10,000 was confirmed. The actual sale to Adonis was 10,000 which was
invoiced and paid by Adonis. We are trying to clear the feedback error
report. My question is why was 10,000 confirmed on 1/16/99 if the date is
not valid for the deal?
When Karen allocates the actual 10,000 it is prorating 5,000 for each day
that is confirmed (the 5th and 16th).
Should the whole 10,000 be allocated to the 5th or should 5,000 be allocated
to each day? If 5,000 should be allocated to each day, the 16th needs to be
added to the deal. | {

Congratulations!! We are pleased to inform you that you are the winning
bidder on one or more lots in our 2000/06/04 auction.
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE MESSAGE! It provides you with
instructions on how to ensure that your wine is shipped according to your
instructions, with the lowest risk of loss or breakage in shipment. YOU MUST
RETURN A SEPARATE CONFIRMATION FOR EACH AUCTION IN WHICH YOU HAVE WINNING
BIDS.
Below you will find an invoice for the lots you won in this auction, along
with the estimated charges for shipping, packaging and insurance.
Follow these steps to expedite your order:
1. PRINT OUT THIS EMAIL.
2. VERIFY THAT YOUR BILLING AND SHIPPING ADDRESSES ARE SHOWN CORRECTLY, or
make any necessary changes to them. Choose your shipping address carefully
-- although we use our best efforts to ship your wine when weather conditions
are favorable, winebid.com is not responsible for damage caused by exposure
to heat or cold. Please also note any special shipping instructions.
3. INDICATE YOUR PREFERRED METHOD OF PAYMENT. Unless you tell us otherwise,
we will charge the credit card number you have on file with us as of the
close of the auction. If you have changed your credit card since please let
us know. If you would prefer to send a check or use a wire transfer, please
see the procedure for doing so below.
4. IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST PURCHASE of wine from winebid.com, please make a
copy of your proof of age and mail it to winebid.com, P.O. Box 2550, Napa, CA
94558 with your shipping authorization.
5. FAX THE PRINTED CONFIRMATION TO 877-921-3733, or mail it to winebid.com,
P.O. Box 2550, Napa, CA 94558. AS WE MUST PAY OUR SELLERS IN A TIMELY
MANNER, IF WE DO NOT RECEIVE YOUR SIGNED CONFIRMATION WITHIN 20 DAYS OF THE
AUCTION CLOSE YOUR CREDIT CARD ON FILE WILL BE CHARGED. HOWEVER WE CAN NOT
SHIP YOUR WINE UNTIL WE RECEIVE YOUR SIGNED CONFIRMATION AND PROOF OF AGE!
Once we've received your faxed confirmation, we will charge your credit card
for the hammer price of the wine, the 12.5% premium, sales tax, if
applicable, and shipping insurance. We will charge the shipping and handling
when the wine is actually shipped. If you have purchased wine from both our
West Coast and Midwest storage and service facilities, we will transfer the
wine to the facility closest to your shipping address by
temperature-controlled truck to consolidate your shipment.
Following are answers to some common questions regarding our service and our
procedures after the auction has closed:
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO SHIP MY WINE? Because of the complexity in sorting
individual bottles from hundreds of consignors for shipment to thousands of
different customers, as well as the time it takes to transfer wine between
our facilities, please allow two to three weeks after we receive your faxed
confirmation before expecting shipment. If you have an urgent need for the
wine, please drop us an email at [email protected] and we'll attempt to
accommodate your request. Please also see the information on weather below.
WHAT ABOUT TEMPERATURE ISSUES? Prior to shipping any wine, winebid.com's
customer service staff checks the weather forecast at our shipping facility
and at your delivery zip code. If the forecast is too warm or too cold, we
will hold the shipment until the weather is more favorable. We only ship
second day air shipments during the first half of the week, so your wine
won't sit in the shipper's warehouse over the weekend. For older vintages or
very high value wines, we recommend that you arrange to pick up the wine at
one of our facilities, or use a ground carrier with temperature-controlled
trucks to minimize the risk of damage. Older corks have a tendency to fail
during air shipments.
HOW IS MY WINE SHIPPED? We recommend the use of two-day service to ship your
wines, to minimize the time the wine is exposed to temperature extremes on a
truck or in a warehouse. If you would like to use next day service, or
standard ground service, please let us know and we'll provide a revised
estimate of shipping charges. All international shipments are sent by air.
IS THE WINE INSURED? Yes. Winebid.com has found that UPS, FedEx, and other
shippers frequently do not honor claims for damaged wine shipments, so we
have purchased and arranged for outside insurance coverage and provide it to
all of our customers at a rate of 1% of the hammer price of the wine. This
insurance is mandatory, and is administrated by winebid.com. If your
shipment suffers loss, damage or breakage, please contact our customer
service department to make a claim. Our insurance does not cover claims of
spoilage or damage from heat or cold during shipment.
HOW CAN I SAVE MONEY ON FREIGHT CHARGES? We strongly recommend that fine and
rare wines be shipped by air. Given the weight of wine, this can be
expensive. If you would like us to use less expensive ground shipment, let
us know. Also, if your purchase from this auction is for less than a full
case, consider allowing us to store your wine until it can be combined with
purchases from future auctions to make a single, larger shipment. Sending
multiple shipments of one or two bottles at a time is far less efficient than
shipping full case lots.

SHIPPING POLICY: The primary means of distribution will be common carrier.
All wines are sold in Illinois or California (depending on which service and
storage facility is used) and ownership, possession and control of the wine
passes to buyer in Illinois or California in accordance with the Uniform
Commercial Code, and sales and use tax, provisions governing auctions. We
make no representation as to the rights of anyone to import wine into any
state outside Illinois or California. The buyer is solely responsible for
shipment of their wines. By participating in these auctions, you authorize
us to act on your behalf to deliver your wine to you at a location in
Illinois or California where the wine may be picked up by you, stored for
pickup by you or shipped by you via common carrier to such other location as
you may from time to time direct. Should you choose to authorize a common
carrier to ship your wine from the storage and service facility, it will be
at your own ris!
k.!
For your information, wines may be sold and delivered only to persons who
are at least 21 years old, and the various state and municipal shipping
regulations governing alcohol around the country vary tremendously. At any
given time, regulations previously authorizing shipment could be repealed,
and vice versa. It is the responsibility of the owner of the wine to be
familiar with the regulations of whatever jurisdiction he or she chooses to
ship the wine into. By placing bids in these auctions, you are representing
that you are at least 21 years old, and the person to whom your wine will be
delivered is also at least 21 years old. The person receiving delivery will
be required to show identification proving that he or she is at least 21
years old.
1.) Choose a method of payment:
a) Payment by Credit Card: __ Your card will automatically be charged the
total amount above.
b) Payment by Check: __ Payment in full must be received within 10 days. A
$25 fee applies to all returned checks. Make check payable to Winebid.com
Inc. and mail it to PO Box 2550 Napa, CA 94558.
c) Payment by Wire: Please inquire for instructions.
2). NOTE: Shipping authorization: I have read and understand Winebid.com's
shipping policy. By signing this invoice, I am verifying that I am at least
21 years old, and the shipping address is correct. If needed, I authorize
Winebid.com to store my wine at no charge in a temperature controlled storage
until the weather permits shipment, and to charge my credit card for the full
purchase price at this time.
Sign here X______________________, authorizing Winebid.com to act on your
behalf to make arrangements for the shipment of your order.
Thanks from all of us at Winebid.com.

FYI - I believe that Shona will prove to be a great asset to Enron. We are
following up on her leads for talent. --Sally

Subject: People to consider recruiting
As requested, I've created a list of people who:
have mentioned to me that they are interested in changing careers/companies or
I think would be a great asset to Enron.
I've jotted down what I know about each person and I hope you find it
useful. I've organized it from most experienced to least experienced. If
you would like to talk me about any of these people or ask me to contact
them, just let me know.
Andy Dunn - until 2 weeks ago he was a director in the PwC risk management
practice. Due to a falling out between Andy and the partners (not client
related), he left the firm. He is extremely well respected by both the audit
and the non-audit personnel, and his leaving came as an unexpected surprise.
I have worked with him on a number of occasions and would highly recommend
him to Enron. The downside to Andy is that he lives in Denver, is used to
travelling a lot, but, at the last time we spoke (a few months ago), is not
interested in leaving Denver. His cell phone (if still in use) is 303 807
0040.
Mark (Allan) Smith - Mark is in the PwC energy risk management practice in
Houston. We worked very closely together throughout 1999 on projects for
Coral Energy and Equiva trading. Prior to working at PwC, Mark was at BP for
15 years where he had many different roles (he worked as a crude trader,
products trader, he worked in the risk management department, in the refinery
itself as an engineer). Mark was excellent to work with. Clients are
extremely impressed with his knowledge and background. I would highly
recommend him for a leadership role at Enron. I spoke to him yesterday and
he is interested in talking with you. His direct number is 713 356 4233.
His cell phone number is 713 412 3890.
Alan Beaton - senior manager KPMG's systems control group (IRM). He works
with my husband. I know him on a personal basis. He is trying to find
opportunities outside of the audit/consulting area (general line 713 319
2000).
Marilyn Chee - She currently works for Equiva trading, manager in-charge of
accounting for derivatives. Her role has expanded to encompass FAS 133 and
all mtm accounting entries. She liases with all book heads (crude and all
products). In the past, she worked in the Texaco internal audit department.
She was my main contact at Equiva when I was at PwC. She is extremely
diligent and very professional. I enjoyed working with her greatly and have
to say she was one of the best people I have worked with in the capacity of a
client/professional relationship. Marilyn has a lot of responsibilities at
the alliance and is extremely well respected. She has had a difficult year
as she is doing a job that should be done by 3+ people. She has mentioned to
me that she is not happy about the fact that her load continues to increase,
and has even mentioned finding another job. However, due to the fact that
she is so well respected where she is, she may be difficult to recruit (713
277 6280). If you contact her I would not want my name associated with it
due to the PwC/alliance relationship.
Rebecca Crider - She has been working at Coral Energy for approximately a
year, reporting to the VP of risk control. Before that she was an audit
manager at AA. I have worked with her briefly and she seemed very
conscientious. I do not know if she is looking or not, but its worth a try!
(713 230 3000 general line).
Kim Nelson - She is a manager in the risk group at AA, and just transferred
over from KPMG. I have not met her, but I did hear that she is not doing
what she had expected at AA. I don't know her number but you could reach her
at the general AA line.
Kevin Schroder - audit manager at KPMG in the energy department. I do not
know him, but do know he is looking for opportunities outside the
audit/consulting area (general line 713 319 2000).
Keith Considine - He is currently a senior accountant at PwC. He is the best
senior PwC Houston has, as well as probably one of the best people I have
ever worked with (the top of his class). Although he only has 4 years of
work experience (all at PwC), he performs in a manager capacity. He worked
for me on the Coral Energy audit engagement and received an excellent
evaluation from both myself and the partners (we all agreed that he is one of
the best people any of us have seen or worked with). He is currently working
on a project at one of PwC's clients to standardize their mid office
processes . He definitely does not see himself as a long time employee of
PwC, but is currently planning on staying there until he is promoted to
manager. I actually recommended him for a promotion to manager at July 1
this year, but due to capacity issues, I don't expect that the promotion will
be approved. Since I've only been with Enron a short time and would like to
continue good relations with PwC, I would appreciate whoever contacts Keith
to elude that it is someone else other than myself who gave you his name. His
number is 713 356 5617.
Dave Simpson - analyst at Koch Energy in Houston, has a degree in accounting
and has work experience of about 9 months. He is very interested in leaving
Koch. I know him on a person basis, but have not worked with him. He is a
good guy and very likeable. I don't have his phone number, but should be
reachable through the general number for Koch.
Admin assistants
Connie Shugart - she is currently working at PwC as an administrative
assistant. She is also involved in recruiting experienced personnel for
PwC's audit and internal audit service lines. She is very interested in
Enron and has asked me a few times to get her a contact here. I have not
worked directly with her but due to her close proximity to my office I talked
to her a number of times and was very impressed. (713 356 4000 - general PwC
number).
Ellen Robertson - She is an administrative assistant who is looking to leave
PwC. I have never worked with her, but she did come to ask me my opinion on
how she should go about finding other work. (713 356 4000 PwC general line). | {

Hey Shanna -
How was your weekend in Louisiana? Did you and Eric have fun? I'm emailing
because last weekend I was really sick and had to cancel dinner and dancing.
I went to the doctor and found out I had pneumonia. I rescheduled dinner
for this Friday, so if you and Eric are free, I would love for the two of
you to come. Dinner is at Lupe Tortilla at 8:30. We'll probably go dancing
afterwards!
Let me know if you guys can come.
Take care -

George,
I received the drawings. They look good at first glance. I will look at
them in depth this weekend. The proforma was in the winmail.dat format which
I cannot open. Please resend in excel or a pdf format. If you will send it
to [email protected], I will be able to look at it this weekend. Does
this file have a timeline for the investment dollars? I just want to get a
feel for when you will start needing money.

Ned,
Regarding the Waha storage, the west desk does not have a strong need for
this storage but we are always willing to show a bid based on the current
summer/winter spreads and cycling value. The following assumptions were made
to establish our bid: 5% daily injection capacity, 10% daily withdrawal
capacity, 1% fuel (injection only), 0.01/MMBtu variable injection and
withdrawal fees. Also an undiscounted June 01 to January 02 spread of $0.60
existed at the time of this bid.
Bid for a 1 year storage contract beginning June 01 based on above
assumptions: $0.05/ MMBtu/Month ($0.60/Year). Demand charges only.
I am not sure if this is exactly what you need or not. Please call or email
with comments.

Latest NFL Player News
Edgerrin James <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=133320&>, RB IND - JWillie Updated 10/26/01
James sprained his left knee in the fourth quarter of Thursday's game at Kansas City. He did not return, and was replaced by Dominic Rhodes, who scored the Colts' final TD on a 77-yard run. James remained on the sidelines after leaving the game.
Derrick Alexander <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=1191&>, WR KC - JWillie Updated 10/25/01
Alexander suffered an injury to his ribs prior to Thursday's game vs. Indianapolis. He did not play, and Larry Parker and Marvin Minnis saw most of the work in two receiver sets.
James Hodgins <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=146331&>, RB STL - Free Agent Updated 10/25/01
Hodgins is suffering from a toe injury and is questionable for Sunday's game against New Orleans. He won't be used much in the Rams offense even if he is healthy.
Dave Stachelski <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=187759&>, TE NO - Free Agent Updated 10/25/01
The Saints released Stachelski Wednesday. He caught just one pass this season for five yards.
Michael Bennett <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=235196&>, RB MIN - Free Agent Updated 10/25/01
Bennett missed practice Wednesday and is listed as questionable on the injury report. He is making progress in his recovery, but his owners should reserve him on their roster. Head coach Dennis Green hasn't given any indication that he will use Bennett this week.
Todd Heap <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=235215&>, TE BAL - Free Agent Updated 10/25/01
Heap is optimistic about playing in Sunday's game against the Jaguars. However, he has been inactive since Week Two and is listed as questionable on the injury report. Consider reserving him this week.
Anthony Thomas <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=235248&>, RB CHI - Martin Updated 10/25/01
Thomas has been named the starter for Sunday's game. He has a case of turf toe but the injury is not considered to be serious. Thomas is listed as probable on the injury report.
Kevin Swayne <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=1677&>, WR NYJ - Free Agent Updated 10/25/01
Swayne will start at wideout in place of the injured Wayne Chrebet. Consider using Swayne if you need a third receiver to start this week.
Reggie Swinton <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=12748&>, WR DAL - Free Agent Updated 10/25/01
Swinton is still recovering from a hamstring injury and will be re-evaluated after practice on Thursday. Swinton won't have much Fantasy value if he is healthy.
Dedric Ward <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=1711&>, WR MIA - Free Agent Updated 10/25/01
Ward has been ruled out of Sunday's game at Seattle. He is still recovering from a foot injury.
Terry Allen <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=1177&>, RB BAL - Tori Updated 10/25/01
Allen practiced Wednesday but remains questionable for this week's game, according to The Baltimore Sun . Jason Brookins will start Sunday if Allen is inactive.

Glenn's status for Sunday's game is uncertain, according to The Boston Globe . He did some running but did not practice Wednesday. Glenn is still recovering from a hamstring injury and the Patriots want to see how his leg holds up before activating him Sunday.
Drew Bledsoe <http://football222.fantasy.sportsline.com/mp/elink?script=players&league=bige01&owner=14696.2&random=3675&key=1041&>, QB NE - Free Agent Updated 10/25/01
The Boston Globe reports that there is a possibility that Bledsoe might be able to fill in as the emergency QB Sunday. Although he is still under his playing weight, he has begun throwing and doing individual passing drills.

Sanders has responded well to back treatment and might play Monday, according to The Nashville Tennessean . However, Sanders is used as a third receiver on a run-oriented team and won't be too productive even if he is healthy.

Subject: Floating LNG Terminal
Folks,
As a follow-up to Scott Neal's inquiry this morning concerning
portable/floating LNG opportunities for California, I have learned that no
such capability currently exists.
According to Todd Peterson of Enron Global LNG, exploitation of this
opportunity has been the topic of some industry articles but no one, as far
as we know, has
constructed such a vessel.
I did come across a proposed design for an LNG floating terminal by the
Italian company,Tecnomare. I contacted them and they indicated that they
have not
built such a vessel. It is estimated that construction of such a vessel
would take 2-3 years, and as one might imagine, achieving the required
operational and
environmental performance in such a vessel would be quite substantial.
Attached is a link to a relatively brief description of the proposed vessel,
http://www.tecnomare.it/marine/project/ling.htm
Please let me know if any further research is needed.

On an ISDA I am reviewing, credit has asked that all indebtedness of the
Canadian counterparty to its affiliates be subordinated to us (in this case
ECC). Does anyone have access to a Canadian form of subordination
agreement? I imagine that a fairly bare-bones form would suffice. Thanks --

Subject: What's ahead for California
Rick:
A thought I keep coming back to is that a lot of this has to do with bad
"market definition" - always the central problem in economic questions.
California has gotten itself in a pickle partially because they have always
looked at the market wrong - as California alone when it is really the West.
It is like looking at the market for new automobiles "West of the
Mississippi" - a pretty meaningless concept as cars are produced on either
side of that artificial boundary, and are freely bought and sold across it.
When you get the market definition wrong it is almost impossible to make
head or tails of any situation - which the Cal ISO and Gray Davis's office
have in fact failed to do.
The current proposal will generally fail - the market will just clear
outside California. It only acts as a form of price discrimination against
the California generators, who will then presumably sue for restraint of
interstate commerce. There is no way there are going voluntarily to agree to
be "Participating Generators" in the Cal ISO's scheme. So the entire market
will become "OOM".
I think if the leadership had not been so abysmal on this there could have
been a rational deal between the CA gov't and the generators that would have
solved the basic problem, kept the lights on and minimized the economic
damage to the California economy and the state's bond rating. But it hasn't
happened, and Moody's now ranks California debt at 49th of the 50 states,
only notch above Louisiana. This is going to cost California's citizens
billions for years to come in higher borrowing costs, even for the normal
expenditure of government such as highways and schools. Time for a timeout,
and to regroup. Even the old regulatory process at the CPUC wasn't this
bad...
Speak to you next week.

I agree- it's not clear to me whether Cal. squares off with the feds on the
RTO issue. All in all , a bad order that will only worsen the situation,
not improve things( I'm saying that w/o benefit of order which is'nt out
yet. Any thoughts?

Sorry I missed your call. I had just popped out for a coffee.
I'll just wait until next week before proceeding, after I get some comments
from you guys. I should pretty much be around all next week so you can
catch
me whenever.
I suppose you have been following the FERC California decision pretty
closely. How CA gets integrated into a new RTO appears to be the key
question. I would be surprised if RTO West even wants them in, given the
credit risk issues, etc.

Our MBA for Executives Program is not included in the recent Financial Times
rankings because we are too young. The Financial Times surveyed alumni from
1998. Our first EMBA class graduated in 2000.
Dean Gil Whitaker was featured in the global business edition of the October
29 issue of Time magazine where he was identified as a "World Beater: People
to Watch in International Business." Whitaker was chosen for his efforts to
diversify the school and pictured with a number of black, Hispanic and women
students. The entire article and photos will be posted on the website soon.

John Campbell, Chief Executive Officer of H-E-B's Central Market, will be
the Dean's Lecture Series featured speaker Wednesday, November 28, from 9:45
to 11:15 a.m., Herring Hall. Campbell, who began his career as a store
checker at H-E-B 30 years ago, led the way to create the premier fresh-food
emporium for people who love food. After years of witnessing customers armed
with coolers driving hundreds of miles to the first Austin location, H-E-B
has expanded the Central Market concept with an additional store in Austin,
one in San Antonio, and another in Houston, which opened May 2001.

Sunday evening, December 10, 2000
COMMENT: On December 5, Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan spoke. He said that the
"wealth effect" has been "significantly attenuated" thanks to the drop in
stock prices. He also acknowledges that our economy "is obviously at
increased risk of untoward events.." He is right, of course, and in a
position to reduce this risk by easing monetary policy. Ironically, his
latest speech follows by exactly four years the one in which the Fed
Chairman famously asked, ".how do we know when irrational exuberance has
unduly escalated asset values."
More and more these days, I hear from various well-connected business
sources that sales "fell off a cliff" since the summer. This is confirmed by
the steep drop in consumer confidence during the first half of December and
Intel's warning last week about sudden order cancellations. Despite this
warning, large/mid/small cap tech stocks were up last week by 8.1%, 15.2%,
and 9.9%, respectively. Could it be that the bad news is mostly in stocks
and that the market is starting to anticipate Fed easing soon? I think so.
SUBSCRIBERS: The risk is that Fed easing might not work to avert a recession
this time. This "pushing-on-a-string" fear was frequently raised by Asian
investors, who I met last week in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Japan. Many of
my friends in Japan see lots of disturbing parallels in the US today with
their unhappy economic and financial experience during the previous decade.
I reminded them that there are still 650 basis points left between the
federal funds rate and zero. For more on this subject, see my latest GLOBAL
PORTFOLIO STRATEGY. The topic for Monday's WEEKLY AUDIO FORUM: "Will US
follow Japan's bubble script?"
PUBLIC: You can decide for yourself whether it is too late for Fed officials
to avert a recession, and how quickly they can get us out once they start to
ease by tracking numerous KEY WEEKLY indicators on the HOME page. You'll
find initial jobless claims, bank credit, mortgage applications, and more.
In his latest speech, the Fed Chairman said he still believes that the
secular rebound in productivity growth is intact. I agree. You can find his
speech in the GREENSPAN CENTER and our updated (Dec 6) PRODUCTIVITY TRENDS
chart book on the WHAT'S NEW page.

Hey there,
Thanks for the pics. What a cutie. I like the first pic a lot.
I'll IM ya later on this week. Today I started my first day at the
Woodlands bakery. I was up at 4am and literally rolling dough by 5:10.
Later today I had 2 fillings done and my dentist accidentally anesthisized
the wrong side of my mouth...TWICE...bc we got to talking about baking and
the first round of shots wore off....then after the second round he realized
that he was working on the wrong side. Not good! You should tell this to
Phillip. We have the same dentist. It was actually not too bad but I'm
super groggy.
Hope all is well at work. I can't believe the stock price. I almost fell
over today when I saw it. Unbelievable.
Take care and I'll talk to you soon.

Subject: Proposed new Index
Index: Gas Daily WAHA
Abbreviation: Waha
Sort Code: 3530
The Index for a calendar day shall be the average of the Daily Midpoint
prices published for such calendar day under the heading "Daily Price Survey"
in the Permian Basin Area: Tex intras, Waha area section of Gas Daily, or if
a calendar day is not a Business Day then the price for such calendar day
will be the average of the Common High and Common Low prices published on the
next succeeding Business Day.
Should the word "area" after "Waha" be capitalized? It's not capitalized in
the Gas Daily publication - so to consistent with the publication I did not
capitalize.
On some Gas Daily products we are switching to the Gas Daily posted average -
is this one of those? Bob Bowen has been looking into this also. See above. | {

Rick: In addition to our normal activities related to board reporting, PortRAC maintenance, compliance and SWAT work, we have the following major project initiatives underway:
DASH SPENDING CONTROLS - We are leading the team to develop an "AFE-type" cost accumulation system so that every project in Enron will have accurate and timely cost expenditure numbers to ensure that appropriate DASH's and approval levels have been obtained.
BANKRUPTCY REPORTING DATA - We have taken responsibility for developing the reporting function for the new bankruptcy group. We are working with Michael T. and Credit to develop what data we need, where in the organization we get it and what kind of reports we generate with it.
POST TRANSACTION REVIEWS - We will provide the primary resources to perform these Board mandated reviews. Paper mills, Garden State and Daishowa will be reviewed this quarter in conjuction with Underwriting.
EES - We are working with Credit to monitor the EES project list as well as assisting them in some counterparty and credit scoring work related to EES's mass marketing effort.
PortRAC ENHANCEMENTS - We have completed the executive demos with very positive comments about the functionality of the system. Some of them (including Louise Kitchen) commented that they missed their hard copy snapshots so we are enhancing PortRAC to make it easier to print an entire snapshot book for a business unit with the "push of a button".
If you have any other "big" projects that you want us to tackle, please let me know. Thanks, Rick C. | {

past 3 years I had been at Enron.
I am currently visiting my family and friends in Singapore, before heading
back to Houston to drive up to Boston. You can reach me at this permanent

care of yourselves!

Hi, Elise. Sorry to bother you, but when Kali was unwrapping her presents

Kevin,
Good point with Naheola Energy Island, but this may also apply to several
other
energy projects that have occurred over the past two years. The Kzoo Steam
Turbines, the RO Project at Marathon, etc...
Also Kevin and Richard given the fact that Naheola was not a wholly owned
asset by
FJ (50%), but rather an LLP with another party (Utilico) - is this asset in
any
way exempt from the Alliance Agreement from FJ's perspective?
Thanks

Subject: Progress Report
As tomorrow is my last day in the office before the "Big Day" I wanted to
provide both of you with an update as to where we stand on the Online
Database Audit.
TAB C (Baseline) -- Baseline has updated its Business Overview of Enron
Corp. and the new version has been approved by Mark Palmer.
TAB E (CorpTech/OneSource) -- The listing questionnaire was faxed to
Meredith last week to be updated and faxed directly back to CorpTech.
TAB F (DJ Interactive) -- The data in the DJ report comes from Hoover's. I
am currently working with Hoover's to update the Business Description in the
DJ report.
TAB G (D&B) -- An updated list of officers, directors, financials and the
expanded business description has been sent to the update desk at D&B. It
will probably take at least 3 weeks for the D&B report to be updated.
TAB H (Extel Company Report) -- Extel is now reporting updated financials
for Enron Corp. Extel is also in the process of updating the Activities and
Management section of the report.
TAB K (Hoover's) -- Hoover's is in the process of updating its list of
Officers for Enron Corp.
TAB M (Market Guide) -- Market Guide is in the process of changing the
Company's name to Enron Corp. and is updating its Business Summary and list
of Officers for the Company. In addition, we could have Enron moved into
the Oil & Gas Operations Industry of the Energy Sector within Market Guide.
The peer group members of this new classification have been sent over to
Enron. Please let me know how you would like to proceed.
TAB O (Multex) -- Multex is in the process of updating its Business Overview
of Enron, which should include changing the size of Enron's assets to $33
billion and possibly including the Company's ranking within the Fortune 500.
In addition, I am exploring if there is a more advantageous industry
classification for Enron. Enron is currently classified in the Basic Energy
industry sector and its peer group is Major Pipeline Companies. Dynegy's
peer group is Major Oil & Gas Gathering & Marketing Companies -- perhaps
this is a more appropriate classification for Enron. Please let me know
that you think.
TAB R (Quicken) -- Quicken obtains its data from Media General Financial
Services. I have spoken with an analyst at Media General and he has updated
the Descriptor for Enron: "Delivers physical commodities and financial and
risk management services to customers; develops, constructs and operates
energy facilities worldwide; produces electricity and natural gas; and is
developing a network platform to facilitate on line business." The new
descriptor should appear on Quicken.com within the next several days. In
addition, I am working with the analyst to develop a more appropriate
Industry classification for Enron. Media General currently classifies Enron
as a Basic Materials Wholesale company.
TAB S (Reuters MoneyNet) -- The data on this service is provided by Market
Guide (TAB M).
TAB T (Reuters Business Briefing) -- Reuters is in the process of updating
the Activities section for Enron, which includes changing the Company's name
to Enron Corp.; changing the IR contact to Mark Koenig; and updating the
number of employees at the Company.
TAB W (Value Line) -- Work in progress.
I will give the both of you a call tomorrow to discuss the next steps of the
project.

Russell - as I remember, Willie finaled the Supply Verification and it was
interfaced to SAP. This is fine, and then Willie was going to net the A/P
and A/R. SAP went down after the statement was interfaced, but before Willie
was able to block or net the payment. When SAP came back up the next day,
the payment had already gone out and we were unable to recall the wire. If
you have any further questions about this, call me. Thanks.

Per our earlier conversation, can you or Audrey or Bryce, please give further

the counterparty instead on netting the amounts between purchases and sales.
You mentioned to me the process of overriding the counterparty's that net on

Enron taps credit line; stock slides

HOUSTON (AP) - After Enron Corp. tapped into more than $3 billion in credit in an effort to boost confidence of investors and customers, stock prices dropped.
Enron Corp.'s stock price hit its lowest point in more than five years Friday. Shares fell 95 cents on Friday to $15.40, a level not seen since 1995, as analysts continued to muddle through a complicated series of bookkeeping issues revealed after the company's earnings announcement earlier this month.
The stock is down more than 50 percent in two weeks, and the company lost almost $14 billion in market value.
Late this week the company decided to convert $3 billion in revolving credit it has through various banks into cash. The company put about $1.1 billion in the bank in an effort to reassure business partners and investors of its liquidity and is using the $2.2 billion balance to begin an orderly repurchase of a certain kind of short-term corporate IOU known as commercial paper.
"Nothing spells confidence quite like cash, which is what we want investors to understand," said Enron spokesman Mark Palmer of the $1.1 billion banked this week.
Palmer could neither confirm nor deny that the company is negotiating further lines of credit with banks but described such actions as "good management decisions."
On Oct. 16 Enron's third-quarter earnings release drew renewed attention to an issue investors and analysts had previously been unhappy about: Then-Chief Financial Officer Andrew Fastow, with the Enron board's approval, had formed and run two investment partnerships that could have created a conflict of interest.
The partnerships, LJM Cayman and LJM2 Co-Investment, did complex financing and hedging deals with Enron.
Fastow had resigned from his roles in the partnerships months ago when Wall Street began to question whether he could watch out for the interests of Enron's shareholders and the investment partnership simultaneously. But last week when the company reported a $35 million loss related to ending its LJM ties as well as a $1.2 billion reduction in shareholder equity, new questions began to arise.
The Securities and Exchange Commission's Division of Enforcement launched an informal inquiry into the partnerships, and earlier this week Fastow was put on a leave of absence.
Reducing the company's debt exposure through commercial paper and putting it back into more traditional financial tools, like a revolving line of credit, could give great peace of mind to Enron's investors, said Anatol Feygin, an analyst with J.P. Morgan.
"It helps them shore up their support behind their energy trading business, which is really the core of their operations," Feygin told the Houston Chronicle for Saturday's editions.
Carol Coale, an analyst with Prudential Securities, still sees the move as somewhat confusing.
"Just last week they were touting their unused lines of credit as a plus, but the fact that they tapped those now sends a strange, mixed message," she said. "Do they need the cash to keep the rating agencies off their back? Is it a gesture for customers? It first struck me as another one of these strangely timed actions on the part of management."

Turning Up the Heat:
Energy trader Enron ousted its chief financial officer days after it said the SEC was conducting an inquiry into billions of dollars of transactions it made with entities tied to the CFO, Andrew S. Fastow. Enron said Fastow took a leave of absence to restore investor confidence. Enron shares have plunged 50% recently, after it announced the probe and reported a $618 million loss.

Bulls Look To Recovery, As Techs Lead The Surge
By Andrew Barry
-- In what undoubtedly will become a business-school case study, Enron let potentially containable concerns about some asset writedowns and a formerly obscure group of partnerships mushroom into a full-blown financial crisis last week.
Enron's stock plunged 10.60 to 15.45, following a 10-point drop in the prior week, and the company's bonds fell sharply as yields rose to junk levels of around 10%. By week's end, Enron had drawn down $3 billion in bank credit lines to pay off nearly $2 billion in maturing commercial paper, leaving it only about $1 billion of net liquidity.
Enron's big energy trading operation, which accounts for the bulk of the company's profits and most of its equity valuation, now may be vulnerable because it hinges on a solid credit rating and the confidence of trading counterparties. Enron faces potential debt downgrades from the major rating agencies, but the company is likely to remain an investment-grade credit. Moody's Investors Service now rates its debt Baa1, three notches above junk.
One doomsday scenario is that counterparties on existing Enron trades, concerned about Enron's viability, push for settlement of the trades, precipitating the kind of liquidity crisis that engulfed Long-Term Capital Management in 1998.
Despite entreaties by friendly Wall Street analysts to come clean about its financial situation, Enron has resisted, refusing to disclose the size of potential liabilities involving Enron-created partnerships whose debt is guaranteed by Enron.
Enron called a conference call Tuesday to clear the air, but it ended up compounding its problems by failing to answer questions posed by a Boston investor about the Marlin partnership, leaving Wall Street with the clear impression that the company faces a nearly $1 billion loss on that deal.
Some suspect that Enron stonewalling is motivated by fears that further disclosure will expose the inadequacy of the asset coverage behind its partnerships and thus significant Enron liabilities that will impair the company's credit ratings. There may also be the need for potential writedowns of various Enron assets, including its money-losing broadband business.
Enron now trades at only a slight premium to its second-quarter book value of $13 a share, but it's worth noting that tangible book, excluding goodwill, was only $9 a share. Book value fell in the third quarter by an undetermined about because of Enron's $1 billion asset writedown and its still-mysterious $1.2 billion reduction in shareholder equity related to one of its partnerships. The third-quarter book value won't be known until Enron releases its balance sheet, which may not occur until its quarterly 10-Q is released.
The Enron situation is another black eye for Wall Street research. The company was a Street favorite for years because of its strong and consistent profit growth. Enron was able to get away with providing minimal disclosure about its energy trading activities and its partnerships because analysts and investors didn't demand it. The Enron bull case essentially boiled down to the company's leadership in the booming energy trading markets and analysts' confidence in management. The Street really didn't provide much more insight than that into a company that at one point had a $75 billion valuation. That value has since shrunk to $14 billion.
Enron's woes also show how equity analysts pay too little attention to company balance sheets. Until last week, Enron analysts still were more focused on earnings dilution than the more important issue of Enron's financial health.
Enron had about $15 billion in debt and preferred stock outstanding at the end of the second quarter and an undetermined amount of guaranteed off-balance-sheet debt. Enron clearly ignored the importance of its balance sheet, allowing it to grow enormously over the past few years. Judging from the company's rather meager credit lines, Enron apparently figured nobody would ever doubt the financial strength of the king of the energy markets.

City - Enron directors cash in shares.

LEADING executives at Enron, the troubled US energy giant, cashed in shares worth more than $100m ( #70m) this year in the run-up to a financial crunch that has left the company's credibility in ruins.
Research by Thomson Financial shows that Kenneth Lay, chief executive, sold about 400,000 shares this year, netting him more than $25m. He still held 2.8m shares until July.
Other executives made similar sales, a revelation likely to anger investors who have seen the shares fall from $83 at the start of the year to $45 by July. They halved again this week and fell to below $16 yesterday. Enron declined to comment on the share sales.
Mr Lay said in a statement that he is seeking to "dispel uncertainty in the financial community" by drawing on lines of credit to restore faith in Enron's financial strength. Enron will pay off debts of $2.2 billion and keep another $800,000 in cash. He said: "We know we have our work cut out for us if we are to rebuild our credibility with the investment community."
The company is facing an inquiry by the Securities & Exchange Commission into partnerships managed by Andrew Fastow, former chief financial officer.
Mr Fastow was ousted on Wednesday night as part of the company's moves to restore confidence, though Enron insists he has done nothing wrong.
Enron lost $1 billion in the third quarter on what it has called "failed investments".

ENRON STOCK SINKS TO 5-YEAR LOW
Energy trading giant Enron Corp., its stocks hammered by a potential credit crunch and its chief financial officer's ouster, fell to its lowest close in more than five years on Friday. The fall was sparked by word of a big quarterly loss and a Securities and Exchange Commission inquiry into the ousted CFO's links to some of Enron's partnerships. Enron stock closed at $15.50, off 85 cents or 5.2 percent, on the New York Stock Exchange.

Enron Corp.'s stock price hit its lowest point in more than five years Friday after it tapped into more than $3 billion in revolving credit in an effort to re-assure investors and customers.
Shares fell 95 cents on Friday to $15.40, a level not seen since 1995, as analysts continued to muddle through a complicated series of bookkeeping issues revealed after the company's earnings announcement earlier this month. The stock is down more than 50 percent in two weeks, and the company lost almost $14 billion in market value.
Late this week the company decided to convert $3 billion in revolving credit it has through various banks into cash. The company put about $1.1 billion in the bank in an effort to reassure business partners and investors of its liquidity and is using the $2.2 billion balance to begin an orderly repurchase of a certain kind of short-term corporate IOU known as commercial paper.
"Nothing spells confidence quite like cash, which is what we want investors to understand," said Enron spokesman Mark Palmer of the $1.1 billion banked this week.
Palmer could neither confirm nor deny that the company is negotiating further lines of credit with banks but described such actions as "good management decisions."
Enron's most recent woes began Oct. 16 when its third-quarter earnings release drew renewed attention to an issue investors and analysts had previously been unhappy about: Then-Chief Financial Officer Andrew Fastow, with the Enron board's approval, had formed and run two investment partnerships that could have created a conflict of interest.
The partnerships, LJM Cayman and LJM2 Co-Investment, did complex financing and hedging deals with Enron and were formed originally as a way to offset risks associated with some of the company's newer businesses such as broadband trading.
Fastow had resigned from his roles in the partnerships months ago when Wall Street began to question whether he could watch out for the interests of Enron's shareholders and the investment partnership simultaneously. But last week when the company reported a $35 million loss related to ending its LJM ties as well as a $1.2 billion reduction in shareholder equity, new questions began to arise.
Analysts began to demand more details behind the workings of the partnerships, details that Enron did not provide as quickly as some would have liked.
Enron Chief Executive Officer Ken Lay told analysts and investors the company was careful to ensure that the interests of Enron and its shareholders were protected, but The Securities and Exchange Commission's Division of Enforcement launched an informal inquiry into the partnerships, and earlier this week Fastow was put on a leave of absence.
In drawing down the $3.3 billion line of revolving credit this week, the company put about $1.1 billion in the bank to ensure liquidity and is using the balance to begin an orderly repurchase of its commercial paper.
Now Enron will begin repurchasing its commercial paper. This is a way for companies to raise money over a short period at rates that are usually slightly better than what banks offer, and often with more flexible terms.
Investors in commercial paper -- who are actually more like lenders, since it's actually a form of debt -- are often fund managers who often have large sums of extra cash in search of short-term investments.
The investors like commercial paper because it lets them earn money on cash that would sit idle otherwise and lets them do it through something issued only by companies with top credit ratings and usually backed by bank lines of credit.
"To some extent, redeeming the commercial paper is at the expense of the capital markets, which look at it negatively," said Anatol Feygin, an analyst with J.P. Morgan.
But reducing the company's debt exposure through commercial paper and putting it back into more traditional financial tools, like a revolving line of credit, could give great peace of mind to Enron's investors, he said.
"It helps them shore up their support behind their energy trading business, which is really the core of their operations," Feygin said.
Carol Coale, an analyst with Prudential Securities, still sees the move as somewhat confusing.
"Just last week they were touting their unused lines of credit as a plus, but the fact that they tapped those now sends a strange, mixed message," she said. "Do they need the cash to keep the rating agencies off their back? Is it a gesture for customers? It first struck me as another one of these strangely timed actions on the part of management."
Jeff Dietert, an analyst at Simmons & Co., said Enron management needs to continue to make clear the issues that have investors confused and concerned.
In a worst-case scenario, investor fears could create a vicious cycle that continues to drive the stock down, which would force bond rating agencies to consider downgrades of Enron. That could lead to lower credit ratings, which would force Enron's energy trading partners to limit their exposure to the company and cut back on business with it.
"Thus, we see a big incentive for Enron to clarify the issues," Dietert wrote in a report Friday. "Our gut feel is that Enron can pull it off."
Feygin said he also believes the company will continue to do better in revealing its financial dealings but thinks there may be more surprises in store.
For example, a Wall Street Journal article Friday discussed for the first time another business entity with ties to Enron known as Chewco. It was formed in 1997 with about $400 million in financial backing to buy interests in unnamed Enron assets.
Chewco was run by Michael Kopper, a managing director of Enron's Global Equity Markets Group.
"Frankly, that was the first time I had ever heard of that entity," Feygin said. "Until now, everything that's come out I've at least heard of or had some idea of what they were from the company's filings or discussions. This is something I had never heard of before."

Enron Taps All Its Credit Lines To Buy Back $3.3 Billion of Debt
By FLOYD NORRIS

The New York Times
Page 2, Column 5
c. 2001 New York Times Company
The Enron Corporation, trying to reassure investors that it has ample liquidity, began to repurchase all its outstanding commercial paper yesterday, using $3.3 billion it borrowed from banks by depleting its lines of credit.
An Enron spokesman said that when the commercial paper repurchases are completed the company will retain more than $1 billion in cash.
The moves did not appear to reassure investors, as Enron's share price fell to another six-year low. Shares traded as low as $15.04 yesterday, before ending the day at $15.40, down 95 cents.
The move will raise the interest expense for the company, because banks normally charge more than companies have to pay in the commercial paper market, and because its outstanding debt will rise by the additional $1 billion.
Enron's debt is rated investment grade. But its bonds now trade below investment grade levels, although not so low that it appears investors fear an early default. But with the bonds trading so low, it is unlikely Enron will be able to sell more commercial paper.
Enron's stock has been plunging since Oct. 17, shortly after it disclosed that its third-quarter balance sheet, which has yet to be released, will show a $1.2 billion reduction in shareholder equity as a result of complicated transactions involving partnerships formerly controlled by Andrew Fastow, who was the company's chief financial officer until he was replaced on Wednesday.
The stock has lost more than half its value since the earnings announcement, and the company has disclosed that the Securities and Exchange Commission has asked questions about its accounting practices.

HOUSTON -- Enron Corp. bonds and shares fell after the largest energy trader tapped a $3-billion credit line because it has been shut out of the leading market for low-interest, short-term loans.
The company's stock has fallen 54% in the last 14 days after investors questioned its transactions with affiliates run by Enron's former chief financial officer. The shares fell 95 cents, or 5.8%, to $15.40 on the New York Stock Exchange.
Investors said Chief Executive Kenneth Lay has failed to reassure them that the company's credit rating won't be cut. Enron can no longer borrow in commercial paper markets, where short-term loans carry lower rates than banks offer.
"Do they have the financial flexibility they once had? No," said John Cassady, who helps manage $3 billion in bonds at Fifth Third Bancorp. "People are questioning the credibility of management."
The company will use its credit line to pay off $2.2 billion in commercial paper it has outstanding, Enron spokesman Mark Palmer said.
The price of Enron's 6.75% bonds, which mature in 2009, declined 11/2 points to a bid of 84 cents on the dollar and an offer of 86 cents. At that price, the bonds, which carry a rating of BBB+, yield 9.53%.
Investors have grown concerned that the firm's credit rating will be cut after $1.01 billion in third-quarter losses from failed investments. Enron needs good credit to raise cash daily to keep trading partners from demanding collateral and to settle transactions.
Enron's decision to tap its credit line was "a smart financial move," said Stephen Moore of Moody's Investors Service. "It took away the hassle and time-consuming nature of rolling commercial paper and insured access to capital."

American)
_______
We'll go forward from this moment
by Leonard Pitts
It's my job to have something to say.
They pay me to provide words that help make sense of
that which troubles the American soul. But in this
moment of airless shock when hot tears sting
disbelieving eyes, the only thing I can find to say,
the only words that seem to fit, must be addressed to
the unknown author of this suffering.
You monster. You beast. You unspeakable bastard.
What lesson did you hope to teach us by your coward's
attack on our World Trade Center, our Pentagon, us?
What was it you hoped we would learn? Whatever it
was, please know that you failed.
Did you want us to respect your cause? You just damned
your cause.
Did you want to make us fear? You just steeled our
resolve.
Did you want to tear us apart? You just brought us
together.
Let me tell you about my people. We are a vast and
quarrelsome family, a family rent by racial, social,
political and class division, but a family
nonetheless. We're frivolous, yes, capable of
expending tremendous emotional energy on pop cultural
minutiae -- a singer's revealing dress, a ball
team's misfortune, a cartoon mouse. We're wealthy,
too, spoiled by the ready availability of trinkets and
material goods, and maybe because of that, we
walk through life with a certain sense of blithe
entitlement. We are fundamentally decent, though --
peace-loving and compassionate. We struggle to know
the right thing and to do it. And we are, the
overwhelming majority of us, people of faith,
believers in a just and loving God.
Some people -- you, perhaps -- think that any or all
of this makes us weak. You're mistaken. We are not
weak. Indeed, we are strong in ways that cannot
be measured by arsenals.
IN PAIN
Yes, we're in pain now. We are in mourning and we are
in shock. We're still grappling with the unreality of
the awful thing you did, still working to make
ourselves understand that this isn't a special effect
from some Hollywood blockbuster, isn't the plot
development from a Tom Clancy novel.
Both in terms of the awful scope of their ambition and
the probable final death toll, your attacks are likely
to go down as the worst acts of terrorism in the
history of the United States and, probably, the
history of the world.
You've bloodied us as we have never been bloodied
before.
But there's a gulf of difference between making us
bloody and making us fall.
This is the lesson Japan was taught to its bitter
sorrow the last time anyone hit us this hard, the last
time anyone brought us such abrupt and monumental
pain. When roused, we are righteous in our outrage,
terrible in our force.
When provoked by this level of barbarism, we will bear
any suffering, pay any cost, go to any length, in the
pursuit of justice.
I tell you this without fear of contradiction. I know
my people, as you, I think, do not. What I know
reassures me. It also causes me to tremble with
dread of the future.
In the days to come, there will be recrimination and
accusation, fingers pointing to determine whose
failure allowed this to happen and what can be
done to prevent it from happening again. There will be
heightened security, misguided talk of revoking basic
freedoms. We'll go forward from this moment sobered,
chastened, sad. But determined, too. Unimaginably
determined.
THE STEEL IN US
You see, the steel in us is not always readily
apparent. That aspect of our character is seldom
understood by people who don't know us well. On
this day, the family's bickering is put on hold.
As Americans we will weep, as Americans we will mourn,
and as Americans, we will rise in defense of all that
we cherish.
So I ask again: What was it you hoped to teach us? It
occurs to me that maybe you just wanted us to know the
depths of your hatred. If that's the case, consider
the message received. And take this message in
exchange: You don't know my people. You don't know
what we're capable of. You don't know what you
just started. But you're about to learn. | {

Power juggling ramped up price
Insiders say manipulation also strained equipment
Christian Berthelsen, Scott Winokur, Chronicle Staff Writers Sunday, May
20, 2001
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
Large power companies have driven up electricity prices in California by
throttling their generators up and down to create artificial shortages,
according to dozens of interviews with regulators, lawyers and energy
industry workers.
Those sources say the unusual maneuvers not only jacked up prices but also
wore down equipment and contributed to the record levels of plant shutdowns
that are depriving the state of much-needed electricity. The accounts are
supported by an independent review of shutdown data by The Chronicle.
The California Energy Commission calculates that an average of 14,990
megawatts of generating capacity, nearly a third of the state's total, was
unavailable each day in April because of plant shutdowns, more than four
times as much as a year ago.
Such shutdowns are the subject of increasing scrutiny as California enters
another period of high demand, the warm spring and summer months of May to
September, when electricity usage normally grows by a third.
Loretta Lynch, president of the California Public Utilities Commission, said
last week the agency has found considerable evidence of suspicious plant
shutdowns. And the California Independent System Operator, which manages the
state's power grid, says plant shutdowns have now become the primary means of
constricting supply.
But an extensive investigation by The Chronicle has found that not only were
generators shut down to boost prices but these "gaming" tactics contributed
to the plants' deteriorating condition.
"We suspected it," said Jim MacIntosh, the manager of grid operations for the
ISO. "It was a sure factor in driving up prices." Such swings in unit output,
he said, "would only make sense in a scenario when they're trying to game
something. Otherwise, why would they do that? They're tearing their units
up."
Unusual phone calls
Operators at a San Bernardino County power plant owned by Reliant Energy Inc.
say a complex plan to manipulate the California energy market began early
last year with a series of unusual telephone calls from the company's
headquarters in Houston.
According to the accounts of three plant operators, Reliant's operations
schedulers on the energy trading floor ordered them to repeatedly decrease,
then increase output at the 1,046-megawatt Etiwanda plant. This happened as
many as four or five times an hour. Each time the units were ramped down and
electricity production fell, plant employees watched on a control room
computer screen as spot market energy prices rose. Then came the phone call
to ramp the units back up.
"They would tell us what to do, and we would do it," said one of the men, who
only agreed to speak on condition they not be identified because they fear
being fired. "Afterward, we would just sit there and watch the market
change."
The workers said frequent and large swings in electricity output began at a
number of California power plants just as the state's power crisis began in
earnest. The workers and state power authorities assert the swings were one
of the primary means of gaming the wholesale energy market.
"It appears the control rooms are responsive to direction from the trading
floors in Houston, rather than the reliability needs of the ISO," said Carl
Wood, a commissioner with the utilities commission who is overseeing that
agency's investigation into plant outages. "Instead of being responsive to
demands for reliability, they're responsive to demands for profitability."
Corporate denial
Reliant officials adamantly deny using this tactic or any other mechanism to
game the California energy market. They and other power companies, including
AES Corp. and a partnership between NRG Energy Inc. and Dynegy Inc., have
asserted that skyrocketing electricity demand forced them to run aging,
decrepit power plants harder than ever to meet California's needs.
While acknowledging that the company issued changes in output levels as
frequently as every 10 minutes, company officials said it was done at the
instructions of the ISO to maintain supply-demand balance.
"As a part of routinely doing business within California and the California
market design, we are required to do that," said Kevin Frankeny, an
operations official with Reliant. "When the ISO (issues dispatch orders),
they dispatch on a 10-minute basis. It can go up and down many times within
an hour."
Frankeny said he was not aware of any instances in which Reliant schedulers
in Houston ordered dispatch changes without the ISO directing them to do it
first.
The ISO refused to comment on operations at any specific facility, but
Stephanie McCorkle, an ISO spokeswoman, said the ramping tactics were used
beyond dispatch instructions during periods of tight supply. And one of the
plant operators said the orders to vary output came independently of the grid
managers. "ISO was not calling Reliant every 10 minutes for that," said one
of the operators. "Not for an individual unit."
Officials with the California attorney general's office declined to comment
on the legality of the ramping practice, citing a continuing investigation
into whether wholesale energy prices are being manipulated. One source
familiar with the state of various inquiries said the ramping, if proved to
have been done to drive up prices, could violate the state's unfair business
practices laws.
Invisible practice
How could companies such as Reliant tinker with output and not get caught?
One of the plant workers said the practice was designed to be virtually
invisible to regulators and grid operators.
When power companies bid on hourly contracts, they agree to produce a certain
amount of electricity over the given hour. Generators are paid based on an
average of the spot market prices for that hour. By driving up the spot
price, they can increase their hourly profits and still produce the total
amount of energy required.
The plant worker said the units would be ramped down immediately after their
output measurement, which was performed at the top of each hour by the ISO.
Then, he said, it was brought back up as the spot market price of electricity
rose in response to the reduced output. By the time the ISO measured again,
the output was back at the expected level.
Another operator said the units were not always ramped up and down - that if
the price reached a satisfactory level, generators would raise output and
remain at that level as long as the price was right. Other times, if the
price was low, output was brought down and kept down.
The same operator said the amount of ramping appeared to be a matter of
individual will of the company schedulers in Houston, with some being more
aggressive than others.
"What they would do, especially late at night, is if the price tanked, they
would undergenerate," an operator said. "Then, mysteriously, the price would
go up.
"Then, if the schedule was at 70 (required megawatt hours of output), they'd
say, 'Go up to 90.' That would cause the price to tank. And they'd say,
'Bring it down again.' "
Rapid changes
These fluctuations occurred within time spans of as little as 10 to 15
minutes, the operators said. But acceptable rates for bringing a unit from
minimum to maximum levels when the plant was owned by Southern California
Edison were more like 80 minutes, to avoid stressing the machinery, one of
the workers said. Moreover, they were typically run at constant levels, which
also reduced wear and tear.
"They were basically ramping up as fast as they can, and then slamming the
brakes on," said one of the operators. "They were increasing the fatigue on
the units."
ISO officials say they changed market operations last fall to crack down on
gaming tactics, including instituting a so-called 10-minute market, rather
than the hourly market, so that it could be more easily detected when
companies were withholding power.
But the ISO says generator outages have now become the primary tactic in
driving up energy prices.
A computer analysis by The Chronicle of shutdown data over a recent 39-day
period shows Reliant and three other generating companies topped the list of
plant shutdowns. Reliant also represented the largest amount of wattage lost
among those companies.
Plants owned by Reliant, AES, Mirant Corp. and Duke Energy Inc. accounted for
more than half of the state's unplanned shutdowns, even though their
generating capacity was no more than 25 percent of the state's total capacity
from all sources.
Reliant, one of California's largest and most profitable out-of-state
generators, reported 319 shutdowns during the period in March and April. It
was followed by Mirant Corp. of Atlanta (310), AES Corp. of Arlington, Va.
(278) and Duke Energy North America of Charlotte, N.C. (261).
Reliant's unplanned shutdowns deprived the system of more than 53,000
megawatts over the 40-day period, an average of 1,368 per day - enough power
for 1.4 million homes for one hour.
Its Ormond Beach plant in Oxnard, with one generating unit down for 26 days,
accounted for more than 30,000 of those missed megawatts. However, an
operator who worked in that plant said the outages there appeared to be the
result of legitimate equipment failures.
Reliant says there are valid reasons for its plants now to be in need of
repair. They are old: At 48, Etiwanda is the oldest of Reliant's five
California plants. And the company says routine maintenance was deferred so
the plants could remain in service during times of high summer demand.
But the operators said the issue is not so clear-cut. One problem at
Etiwanda, a tube leak, had been present for about a month and was previously
reported to management, they said, but it had not deteriorated much, it was
operating at full capacity and there was no immediate need to take the unit
offline because of the problem.
Moreover, at the time of the shutdown, the ISO had expressly asked Reliant to
keep the unit online, the operators said. Richard Wheatley, a spokesman for
Reliant, denied that any Reliant unit was taken offline for unnecessary
maintenance.
Ramping may be rampant
Sources say Reliant was not alone in using the ramping practice. A source
familiar with the state utilities commission investigation said output logs
obtained from AES' Alamitos plant also reflected production fluctuations. And
an operator who has worked at the El Segundo plant co-owned by NRG and Dynegy
said the practice was used there, although less frequently. The scheduling
calls came from Dynegy's trading floor in Houston, rather than NRG in
Minneapolis, he said.
Steve Stengel, a spokesman for Dynegy, said changes in output at El Segundo
were a normal function of changing demand levels throughout the day, and
denied the company was engaged in gaming the California market.
In a May 2000 report, the California Energy Commission cited Reliant's
Etiwanda plant, as well as the Alamitos and El Segundo plants, as some of the
"major beneficiaries of high real-time prices" that spring.
One way to obtain those high prices, the plant workers said, was the simple
method of demanding a sky-high price and refusing to deliver power if that
price was not met.
On one occasion, one operator said, Reliant ordered a unit at Etiwanda to be
shut off because the ISO would not meet the price of $1,000 per megawatt
hour, even though the legal price cap at the time was $750.
"The operator said, 'It's our unit, shut it off,' " the source said.

Subject: Prospective Meeting with Jim Harmon, Chairman of EXIMBank, March 15
Ken and Joe
Jim Harmon, Chairman of EXIMBank will be in Houston March 15 and would like
to meet with Enron to see where there are opportunities for EXIM to work more
closely with the company. He will be accompanied by Jeff Miller VP who
oversees the finance operations and perhaps Barabara O"Boyle, head of the
project finance group. As you know we have done little with the Bank since
Trakya. We intended to use the Bank for Dabhol 2 but were prevented to by
sanctions imposed against India. Joe is now on the EXIM Advisory Committee
so it would be a good opportunity to sit down with the Bank.
I understand that Ken has received a letter from EXIM about the meeting and
referred it to Joe. I would propose that Joe lead the meeting with some of
the regional finance people (parallel the Munoz schedule, but shorter) with a
brief courtesy call on Ken or Ken could step in for a moment whenever he is
available.
I will check with Pam re Joe's availability and follow up with a memo re the
market window initiative with EXIM where my office is heavily involved. | {

Rusty,
I will get with Kathleen and we will prepare on a form. However, you will
need to provide one of us with the details on a case-by-case basis, so that
we (Kathleen) can generate the CA's and track them in the legal department
database.
If we have the following information, a CA can typically be generated on a
same day basis:
name, address of counterparty, including name of contact person
type of deal contemplated
what type of information is being provided
whether both parties are providing information
whether exclusivity/non-circumvention provisions are desired
Thanks,

Joe - there is no announcement today. I tried to leave you a voicemail but
apparently the system is down there.
Before we can offer an outside person a VP position, the Executive Committee
must sign off. We are going to be going through that process in a few
minutes. Then we begin the offer extension and negotiations. The person we
are recommending is Linda Robertson, one of the two people I mentioned to you
before.
Please guard the information carefully. Last time we talked, when the list
had been narrowed to two, DeLay's office called with the exact two names and
started pushing us to hire a Republican. As you know we interviewed
candidates of both political affiliations and just settled on the best
person. Ken told DeLay's office that's how we do things and Ken is
comfortable (actually enthused) about the choice.
When some external announcement is done, you will be involved and your
considerable contributions will be prominently mentioned. | {

Saudis Set to Select Firms for Gas Projects

NEW YORK -- After more than two years of talks, Saudi Arabia is about to
announce its choice of international oil companies for three huge natural-gas
projects that will mark a reopening of the kingdom's energy sector to Western
investment, a quarter century after it was nationalized.
But the announcement, and the signing of memorandums of understanding early
next month, will mark only the beginning of serious negotiations on terms for
the three ventures, which together will need investment of some $25 billion.
It will be months before final agreements are signed.
"We expect to have an agreement -- a final agreement -- signed somewhere at
the end of the year, or, hopefully, the first quarter of next year," said
Saudi Oil Minister Ali Naimi in an interview last week.
Saudi Arabia's 11-member Supreme Petroleum Council is expected to meet today
to endorse the companies recommended by a ministerial committee led by
Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal. In the following week, Saudi Arabia
is expected to communicate its decision to the oil companies from both sides
of the Atlantic that have been vying for a role in the three projects. By the
end of the month, the chosen consortium members and Saudi officials are
expected to agree on which three companies will lead the projects. This will
be a prestigious role in a country that is the world's largest oil exporter,
has more than a quarter of the world's oil reserves and has the fifth-largest
reserves of natural gas.
As with any negotiations for such huge projects, industry rumors abound. All
three so-called oil supermajors -- Exxon Mobil Corp., Royal Dutch/Shell Group
and BP PLC -- have been mentioned as project leaders, particularly for the
plum Ghawar project, named after the world's largest onshore oil field, whose
environs are expected to yield large volumes of gas. The Ghawar project,
known as Core Venture 1, is projected to require about $15 billion in
investment. Core Venture 2 is on the Red Sea coast. The third project is in
Shaybah, a recently developed oil field in the kingdom's Empty Quarter, a
southeastern region bordering the United Arab Emirates.
The companies say they have no idea who will be named to the consortia, or
who the Saudis will choose from a short list of 11 companies -- Exxon Mobil,
Shell, BP, Chevron Corp., TotalFinaElf SA, ENI SpA, Enron Corp., Occidental
Petroleum Corp., Marathon Oil Canada Inc., Conoco Inc. and Phillips Petroleum
Corp. -- to lead each project. But they all have their hopes.
"We would be very disappointed if we are not the lead operator" for the
Shaybah project, said Archie Dunham, Conoco's chairman and chief executive.
Since Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah invited major oil companies to return to
the kingdom in October 1998, negotiations have focused on such broad issues
as the scope of the projects and their integrated nature -- from exploration
and production of gas to the making of petrochemicals and electricity -- as
well as the notion that the companies will need adequate returns on their
investment.
Soon, the project leaders will have to start the bargaining on such issues as
the roles to be played by national champions Aramco and petrochemicals
company Saudi Basic Industries Corp.

Cheney task force seeks input from interest groups
By SHARON THEIMER
Associated Press Writer
05/14/2001
Associated Press Newswires
Copyright 2001. The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The White House team developing a national energy plan has
met with more than 130 interest groups, from environmentalists and unions
often at odds with Republicans to major Bush supporters given private
sessions with Vice President Dick Cheney.
The vice president, Cabinet secretaries and others on a special task force
have solicited ideas behind closed doors, hoping the privacy would encourage
a free exchange of ideas.
The White House has declined to provide names of participants - even to
Congress.
But interviews with participants detail a massive outreach where diverse
interests have met with task force executive director Andrew Lundquist.
Cheney's time has been reserved for meetings with more select participants
such as power wholesaler Enron Corp. and the Edison Electric Institute, both
GOP donors.
Houston-based Enron is the world's top buyer and seller of natural gas and
electricity.
"The way the task force is set up, they don't have the staff or time to have
a huge host of companies come through the door. They have told us to work
through our associations to the extent we can," said Don Duncan, vice
president of government relations for Phillips Petroleum Co.
Participants said the meetings, typically 20 minutes to 45 minutes, included
about a dozen to 100 interest group members and a few task force members and
staff.
No details were disclosed. Instead, administration representatives summarized
the nation's energy problems or listened as groups briefly offered background
and proposals. Many sent detailed materials to the task force outlining their
priorities.
At a half-hour meeting in late March with White House strategist Karl Rove
and Bush economic adviser Larry Lindsey, nuclear energy executives tried to
make sure the two knew about the production records the industry has set over
the past few years. At one point, Rove asked if anyone was looking to build a
nuclear power plant. An executive with Exelon replied that his company was
thinking about it, meeting participants said.
Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham has attended several meetings, including one
with Teamsters President James Hoffa and an hourlong session in California
with Democratic Gov. Gray Davis, who contends the administration has done
little to help the power-strapped state.
Like other governors, Davis was asked to provide one page on the state's
power crisis, including a description of the problem, an anecdote about it
and possible solutions.
"They're asking for a one-page memo on possibly the biggest crisis ever
affecting the state, with a massive ripple effect for the nation," Davis
spokesman Steve Maviglio said. "I think it demands more attention than a
one-page memo."
Cheney spokeswoman Juleanna Glover Weiss said the task force has been
studying the California problem almost daily.
At a meeting between Abraham and about 100 coal industry representatives in
late April, task force staffers handed out a briefing packet that outlined
national energy needs, and then they listened to industry proposals.
"I thought the purpose was one, to reassure people in the coal industry that
coal was going to play a large role in the energy mix, and essentially when
the plan is unveiled that they're going to be looking to people to help
martial this through Congress," said Bill Banig, a lobbyist for the United
Mineworkers Union.
White House officials said the meetings are not designed to encourage
lobbying and that task force members were carefully instructed on what was
permissible under federal law.
Cheney's meetings included Enron, Edison Electric Institute, California
Republicans, and the senators from Nevada, home to the proposed Yucca
Mountain federal nuclear waste site. The vice president plans to meet with
the renewable-energy industry this week.
Enron ranked among Bush's top 10 presidential campaign contributors, giving
more than $110,000, and helped sponsor a $7 million party fund-raiser last
month.
The Edison Electric Institute gave Republican candidates more than two-thirds
of its $193,000 in contributions last year. Edison International, whose
holdings include the Southern California Edison electric utility, is also a
major donor, giving $535,000 to Republicans last year and $330,000 to
Democrats.
Enron spokesman Mark Palmer said Cheney met with Enron executives because the
power wholesaler is a respected member of the industry, not because it was a
contributor. Enron wants the administration's energy plan to ease electricity
transmission bottlenecks, give companies incentives to invest in new
transmission and make the wholesale power market as open as possible, he
said.
Tom Kuhn, the institute's president, said it is "totally ludicrous" to think
political donations played a role.
Cheney's meeting with Edison board members, held at the institute's
invitation, lasted 15 minutes to 20 minutes. Cheney spoke about the task
force process, Kuhn said. He said Cheney's remarks were consistent with the
vice president's public statements.
Edison wants to see new generation and transmission systems built, including
coal, natural gas and nuclear and hydroelectric power, Kuhn said.
Democrats in Congress sought a list of participants in the meetings, but
Cheney's office responded by only listing broad categories and no names. That
has left fodder for political attack.
"You can't just take advice from one interest group or set of interest groups
when you do these things," said Dave Albersworth of the Wilderness Society,
whose group has met with Lundquist but was denied its request to talk with
Cheney.
Weiss countered that the energy task force has collected information from
more than 130 groups since January in an "almost Herculean effort" to draw
input from all sides.
"People deserve the right to petition their government and not expect a full
laundry list of who's called to be announced," she said.
Enron spokesman Palmer said he is not seeking such privacy. "I'm happy to
tell people what we're advocating for. I'd rather be talking about policy
than about politics," he said.

COMPANIES & FINANCE UK: Independents drill deep to strike rich seams: A new
generation of smaller oil companies is emerging; a group that has discovered
how to be competitive, writes David Buchan: Financial Times; May 14, 2001
By DAVID BUCHAN
The UK's listed small oil companies may have dwindled in number. But they can
rightly say, echoing Mark Twain's words, that reports of their collective
demise are exaggerated.
Indeed, many in the UK-based exploration and production companies, dubbed
"independents" in the sense of being untied to any refining and marketing,
believe they have more of a role than when their kind first started operating
in the North Sea 30 years ago.
After the takeovers in recent years of Lasmo, Monument and British Borneo,
there may only be about a dozen significant UK-based "independents" left. Yet
they amount to virtually the entire European E&P sector: the only significant
exception being Lundin Oil of Sweden.
Many of the UK independents began life as local partners of US companies in
the 1970s when the Labour government of the period gave preference to
consortia with a local flavour.
But this rationale disappeared when the Thatcher government took a more
free-for-all approach to letting anyone develop the North Sea - though at the
same time it did create the biggest UK independent by floating off British
Gas' oil interests as Enterprise Oil. Enterprise is the only UK independent
that is more than a niche or regional player. As such its E&P assets would be
a significant addition to an oil major, hence the persistently rumoured
interest in taking it over.
As the North Sea became more competitive and difficult, some of the UK-based
independents began to look elsewhere. "Unlike US independents which have
always tended to be less interested in drilling outside North America, those
in the UK have always tended to be more sympathetic to exotic parts of the
world", says Mark Redway of Teather and Greenwood.
Unfortunately, the obvious exotic new province that happened to open up in
the early 1990s was the former Soviet Union. One company, Ramco Energy,
dipped in and out very successfully, recently selling its 2 per cent stake in
the Azerbaijan International Oil Consortium for Dollars 150m (Pounds 104.8m).
Other UK independents - Aminex, Soco and Dana Petroleum - ventured into
Russia and got stuck. While Aminex finds it hard to downplay Russia (because
it has little elsewhere), Soco these days stresses its Mongolia and Vietnam
operations. Another UK independent, JKX Oil & Gas, went into Ukraine, a
country notorious for non-payment of energy bills. With diplomatic help from
Tony Blair, the prime minister, JKX has just survived a legal attempt to rob
it of its Ukraine assets.
Two other independents have sunk more fruitful roots in Asia. "Cairn Energy
now has as big a stake in Bangladesh's gas production as Shell, and it would
be left, if Enron (the US energy company) were to quit India, as the biggest
foreign player in India," says Iain Reid of UBS Warburg. Premier Oil is now a
substantial Asian gas company, with production in Burma, Indonesia and
Pakistan and long term contracts in Thailand and Singapore.
But there are risks in these Asian ties. The obvious political one concerns
Burma. Last year the UK government asked Premier to quit Burma because its
presence was helping the military regime. Premier refused, and said it would
carry on.
The other risk, according to Mr Redway, is economic and it applies also to
Cairn. Because there is no real world market for gas, Cairn and Premier are
"very dependent on the strength of the local economies". But then, Mr Redway
is an analyst who believes that independents' competitive edge lies in
exploration rather than production. He therefore rates Fusion Oil & Gas
highly as "the purest exploration investment opportunity in the E&P sector".
Dana similarly vaunts its exploration expertise, but to a different end. Its
goal, according to Tom Cross, chief executive, is to find oil and then swap
exploration for production assets. "This avoids the expensive development
stage of building platforms and pipelines and so on". Then at the other end
of the spectrum are production-focused companies, such as Paladin, Tullow Oil
or Venture Production. Roy Franklin, Paladin's chief executive, makes no
bones about his company's scavenger strategy, spotting rich pickings
overlooked by the majors.
The majors are not always ready to sell, particularly recently when the oil
price rise has widened the gap in price expectations between buyers and
sellers.
But Paladin was last year able to buy PetroCanada's assets in Norway, and is
this year interested in bidding for some of what the Norwegian state is
selling off.
As its name suggests, Venture Production, a private Aberdeen-based company
with North Sea and Trinidad operations, is focused on extraction, not
exploration. And so are other private companies such as Intrepid, Consort
Energy and Highland Energy, formed in the past three or four years. This new
generation of company tends to be more cautious than the older one.
"Exploration has probably been the best way to destroy shareholder value,"
says one executive.
The other risk the new oilmen want to avoid is the vagaries of the stock
market. "By focusing on production, the new companies are more predictable in
terms of cash flow and earnings," says Mike Wagstaff, Venture's finance
director.

Bush energy team covers all the bases

(Copyright 2001 by the Chicago Tribune)
The White House team developing a national energy plan has met with more than
130 interest groups, from environmentalists and unions often at odds with
Republicans to major Bush supporters.
Vice President Dick Cheney, Cabinet secretaries and others have solicited
ideas behind closed doors, hoping the privacy would encourage a free exchange
of ideas.
The White House has declined to provide names of participants even to
Congress.
But interviews with participants detail an outreach program where diverse
interests have met with task force executive director Andrew Lundquist.
Cheney's time has been reserved for meetings with more select participants
such as power wholesaler Enron Corp. and the Edison Electric Institute, both
GOP donors.
"The way the task force is set up, they don't have the staff or time to have
a huge host of companies come through the door. They have told us to work
through our associations to the extent we can," said Don Duncan, vice
president of government relations for Phillips Petroleum Co.
Participants said the meetings, typically 20 minutes to 45 minutes, included
a dozen to 100 interest group members and a few task force members and staff.
No details were disclosed. Instead, administration representatives summarized
the nation's energy problems or listened as groups briefly offered background
and proposals. Many sent detailed materials to the task force outlining
priorities.
Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham has attended several meetings, including one
with Teamsters President James Hoffa and an hourlong session in California
with Democratic Gov. Gray Davis, who contends the administration has done
little to help the power-strapped state.
Like other governors, Davis was asked to provide one page on the state's
power crisis, including a description of the problem, an anecdote about it
and possible solutions.
"They're asking for a one-page memo on possibly the biggest crisis ever
affecting the state, with a massive ripple effect for the nation," Davis
spokesman Steve Maviglio said. "I think it demands more attention than a
one-page memo."
Cheney spokeswoman Juleanna Glover Weiss said the task force has been
studying the California problem almost daily.
At a meeting between Abraham and 100 coal industry representatives in late
April, task force staffers handed out a briefing packet that outlined
national energy needs, and then they listened to industry proposals.
"I thought the purpose was one, to reassure people in the coal industry that
coal was going to play a large role in the energy mix, and essentially when
the plan is unveiled that they're going to be looking to people to help
marshal this through Congress," said Bill Banig, a lobbyist for the United
Mineworkers Union.
White House officials said the meetings are not designed to encourage
lobbying.

QATAR: UAE's Dolphin may seek new partners if Enron exits.
By Kedar Sharma
05/14/2001
Reuters English News Service
(C) Reuters Limited 2001.
DOHA, May 14 (Reuters) - Dolphin Energy Ltd (DEL) may invite new foreign
investors to join its project to route Qatari gas to the United Arab Emirates
as U.S. Enron Corp looks set to bow out, industry sources said on Monday.
"New partners are a possibility," Khaldoun al-Mubarak, project manager for
DEL, majority owned by the UAE's Offsets Group (UOG), told Reuters.
"But at the moment we are in the midst of finalising the formal (development
and production sharing) agreement with Qatar which should be done by
September at the latest."
Qatar and DEL in March signed a "commercial term sheet agreement" which
outlined the conditions of the upstream agreement for the long-awaited $3.5
billion project.
UOG currently owns 51 percent of DEL, with the remainder held equally by
France's TotalFinaElf and Enron.
"Enron is going through major global restructuring," Mubarak said. "(But)
they haven't officially notified us about their intention to pull out."
Enron officials declined comment.
Mubarak said interest in DEL was running high.
"Everyone is asking for a stake," he said.
The gas deal would entitle DEL to develop a tract of Qatar's giant North
Field and produce up to two billion cubic feet per day (cfd) of gas.
UOG is to invest $2 billion in developing the North Field tract, drilling and
setting up production facilities.
The remaining $1.5 billion would be invested to lay a pipeline and set up
receiving terminals at Dubai's Jebel Ali and Taweelah in Abu Dhabi.
First gas is targeted to reach the UAE capital Abu Dhabi by late 2004 or
early 2005. About one billion to 1.5 billion cfd of Qatari gas would be
consumed by utilities in Abu Dhabi with the remainder supplied to Dubai.

UAE: UPDATE 1-Saudi expected to name gas race winners on Tuesday.
By Peg Mackey
05/14/2001
Reuters English News Service
(C) Reuters Limited 2001.
DUBAI, May 14 (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia's Supreme Petroleum Council (SPC) is
expected to meet on Tuesday and announce the oil majors chosen for its
multi-billion dollar gas investment opening, industry sources familiar with
the negotiations said on Monday.
The sources said the SPC is expected to name ExxonMobil and Royal Dutch/Shell
as lead players in three so-called core projects involving the kingdom's
upstream gas sector - off-limits to foreign oil firms since nationalisation
in 1975.
Signing of memoranda of understanding (MOUs) would most probably take place
in early June, the sources said.
The anticipated announcement would mark the biggest advance in the kingdom's
gas initiative, valued at an initial $25 billion, since Riyadh unveiled its
energy investment opening over two years ago.
But the hard work has yet to start on the opening of Saudi Arabia's gas
sector, the world's fourth biggest. "The fiscal regime and regulatory details
have not been developed," said one source.
FINAL CUT
Riyadh is expected to trim back its original shortlist of 11 potential
foreign investors revealed last summer. Those companies had been grouped
under three core venture consortia - South Ghawar, Red Sea and Shaybah.
For ExxonMobil and Royal Dutch/Shell, securing the lead role in Saudi
Arabia's core ventures would entitle them to operate the package and get the
biggest slice of the projects, analysts said.
Other industry sources said ExxonMobil, the world's biggest energy company,
was tipped for the top slot in core venture 1 (South Ghawar) as well as in
core venture 2 (Red Sea).
Royal Dutch/Shell was in pole position for core venture 3 (Shaybah), the
sources added.
Both oil supermajors already have significant foreign investment in the
kingdom and feature as top customers of Saudi oil, the analysts said.
ENERGY DRIVERS
An urgent need to create jobs and grow the economy are driving Saudi Arabia's
landmark energy opening.
And analysts said big oil companies were prepared to help the kingdom achieve
those aims even if the return on their investment was relatively low.
"Major oil companies just cannot miss this opportunity," a source said. "The
gas projects will show profits."
But just how much revenue oil companies will generate by selling water and
electricity in the Saudi domestic market remains to be seen.
On paper, at least, the kingdom's domestic gas sector looks set for
impressive growth.
Domestic gas demand, now running at about 3.4 billion cubic feet per day, is
forecast to grow at more than seven percent a year over the coming decade.
Saudi Arabia has meanwhile made clear that its prized oil sector, the world's
biggest, remains off limits.
Even so, oil companies still hold out hope for eventual involvement in oil,
the kingdom's lifeblood.
"The companies are just as happy with gas, but oil remains the ultimate
objective," a regional analyst said.
"Saudi Aramco is still putting up strong defence barriers, but eventually
they could open up the oil sector once they feel comfortable working with the
majors."
The Saudi gas initiative seeks foreign oil companies' help in developing the
kingdom's known gas reserves as well as investment in downstream projects fed
by gas supplies, such as power and desalination.
The following companies have been shortlisted for the gas projects:
Core venture 1 (South Ghawar Area) - ExxonMobil, Royal Dutch/Shell, BP ,
TotalFinaElf , Chevron and ENI .
Core venture 2 (Red Sea Area) - TotalFinaElf, ExxonMobil, Marathon , Enron
/Oxy , Conoco , Royal Dutch/Shell.
Core venture 3 (Shaybah Area) - Royal Dutch/Shell, ExxonMobil, Marathon,
Conoco, TotalFinaElf, Phillips and Enron/Oxy.

Saudi Oil Council To Meet Tue On Gas Projects -Sources
05/14/2001
Dow Jones Energy Service
(Copyright (c) 2001, Dow Jones & Company, Inc.)
DUBAI -(Dow Jones)- International oil companies vying for a stake in Saudi
Arabia's downstream gas projects, expect to be notified soon on whether they
have been selected to participate, industry sources in the kingdom said
Monday.
Saudi Arabia's Supreme Petroleum Council is set to meet Tuesday and shortly
after, announce its final selection for each of the three core ventures on
offer, the sources said.
The Saudi Arabian committee negotiating with international oil companies on
the Gas Initiative, submitted its proposals for consortium members and
leaders to the country's Ministerial Council in April. These were then passed
on to the SPC for final approval.
Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Abdullah, who heads the SPC, is in Bahrain Monday
attending a Gulf Cooperation Council leaders' summit along with Saudi
Arabia's foreign minister, Saud Al Faisal, who heads the gas negotiating
committee.
Saudi Arabia invited international oil companies in October 1998 to
participate in proposals for downstream gas projects and upstream gas
enhancement.
After a series of meetings between the negotiating committee and IOC's in the
past year, the following companies were shortlisted for each project.
Royal Dutch/Shell Group (RD), BP PLC (BP), Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM), Chevron
Corp. (CHV), Total Fina Elf S.A. (TOT) and ENI SpA (E) for Core Venture 1,
the $15 billion South Ghawar Area Development.
For Core Venture 2, the Red Sea Development, Enron Corp. (ENE) and Occidental
Petroleum Corp. (OXY) are bidding jointly and Exxon Mobil, Total Fina Elf,
Marathon Oil Canada Inc. (T.M), Shell and Conoco Inc. (COCA) were listed.
And for Core Venture 3, the Shaybah area, Total Fina Elf, Conoco, Phillips
Petroleum (P), Enron and Occidental, Exxon Mobil, Shell and Marathon Oil were
listed.
With all those shortlisted expected to play some role, the immediate and
essential question for each of the IOC's is whether they will be selected to
lead and operate a project, with Core Venture 1 the most sought after,
industry sources said.
Exxon Mobil and Shell have been tipped as frontrunners for this venture.
The operator's role will be more crucial than ever here as it will be
responsible for directing further negotiations on the projects at hand which
will lead to final deals probably by year end.
Also, operators are expected to decide and direct how the project's
individual and large components will be developed, details the Saudis haven't
finalized, sources said.
The three ventures have been estimated at a combined value of about $25
billion.

RFID chip will help speed up business
05/14/2001
The New Straits Times
Main/Lifestyle; 2*
26
(Copyright 2001)
THE combination of recently developed "stick-on" Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) chip technology with a global positioning system (GSP)
will transform and quicken the pace of doing business in the oil and gas
industry.
And Malaysia must adapt to this shift to maintain her global positioning.
Global management and technology consultant Global Energy Strategy Practice
which is working in partnership with Accenture Sdn Bhd wants to promote this
idea locally.
Global Energy Strategy Practice partner Paul Spence said that applying this
latest combined technology, car owners can fill up a petrol tank without
resorting to human contact or to the use of a credit card.
Relevant personal data embedded in the RFID chip would be machine read and
the required quantity of petrol delivered, as if right out of a science
fiction movie.
This surreal development is made possible through the application of
ubiquitous-commerce (u-commerce) whereby computers and machines communicate
with each other to affect an impression of an omnipresent intelligence.
Such technology is economically available today. "There are technology
suppliers who are offering these capabilities."
The technology also has applications outside the oil and gas industry.
Communications between machines can now allow or deny access of individuals
to restricted zones.
In an interview in Petaling Jaya recently, Spence said: "A lot of my clients
now are asking, whether that same technology can be used to restrict access
into hazardous areas, plants or production sites.
"Can a warning alarm be fitted to the individual or to an assistant? There
are lots of safety, health and environment applications around that."
"Guru in the field" is another potential application where a combination of
RFID chips, video cameras, personal digital assistants (PDA) and personal
computers can deliver distant technical advice on- site.
"An industry client operating in the North Sea oil fields has a prototype
mounted on a workman's helmet which sends snap-shots to experts on the other
side of the world.
"The effect of this new combined technology on global financial and commodity
markets is to lock them in tighter correlation.
"The days of being able to arbitrage for profits between geographical markets
are shortening within the energy industry. Enron which is the biggest oil
trader in the US is now hedging on weather derivatives."
Accenture partner Lim Beng Choon said that to compete globally, the oil and
gas industry in Malaysia would have to implement this new technology to
remain connected to global markets.

India: Godbole panel report may suggest MSEB bifurcation
05/14/2001
Business Line (The Hindu)
Copyright (C) 2001 Kasturi & Sons Ltd (KSL); Source: World Reporter (TM) -
Asia Intelligence Wire
MUMBAI, May 13. THE second part of the Dr Madhav Godbole committee report is
expected to be submitted to the State Government on May 15.
While the first part of the report recommended renegotiation of the power
purchase agreement with Enron's Dabhol Power Company, the second part is
expected to suggest bifurcation of the Maharashtra State Electricity Board,
sources said. The committee, which has been given the mandate to negotiate
with Enron officials to make DPC power more acceptable, had a marathon
meeting on May 11 to finalise the second half of the report.
"The committee has been considering the bifurcation of MSEB," a source said.
"The idea is to try and separate the distribution from generation and
transmission." While generation and transmission can be controlled by the
State, there may be a suggestion to privatise the distribution arm. Over 1.5
lakh MSEB employees had gone on a strike to oppose a Bill to unbundle the
board into three divisions - generation, transmission and distribution - due
to fear of privatisation.
MSEB, the State's leading power company, has been facing huge losses due to
delay in payments and theft of power. The second part of the report is
expected to address the problem in detail.
Part one of the report submitted on April 10 had said: "...none of the
solutions espoused for independent power producers, in general, and DPC, in
particular, is tenable without the reforms of MSEB, especially its
distribution business, which it shall address in part II of the report."
The report is expected to "suggest appropriate measures to ensure that the
interests of the State, MSEB and electricity consumers of the State of
Maharashtra are properly and adequately considered, evaluated and
safeguarded," according to the terms of reference laid down when forming the
committee.
The committee originally consisted of Dr Madhav Godbole, Mr Deepak Parekh, Dr
E.A.S. Sarma, Dr Rajendra Pachauri and the State Energy Secretary, Mr Vinay
Mohan Lal. The MSEB Chairman, Mr Vinay Bansal, has been inducted as part of
the panel after the submission of the first part and before the beginning of
negotiations with Enron.

These are volatile times for world business. There are increasing jitters
that a slowing US economy could dampen prospects for the global economies.
Many developing regions, especially in Asia, are bracing themselves for a
bout of slightly lower growth.
But two countries, India and China which together account for about half the
region's gross domestic product (GDP_ will still continue to see their GDP
grow at six per cent, forecasts the Asian Development Bank.
Many Indian economists agree with ADB's projections. In fact, they view the
prediction of a six per cent growth in India's GDP as benign. Nearly 54 per
cent of India's GDP is delivered by its services sector and a modest
performance by this sector, some economists say, will be enough to hold up
the GDP at six per cent. There are others who hope that better agricultural
performance could prompt the economy to hand in a better scorecard.
However, the Indian industry remains trapped in the doldrums, suffering from
a lack of consumer confidence and investments. Very few economists expect to
see signs of recovery sprouting any time soon.
An interest rate cut is considered vital by many to energise the sector. And,
they argue, there are certain economic indicators that encourage such a move.
Inflation is running at very low levels and the nation's foreign exchange
reserves are currently high enough to provide a strong defence to the Indian
currency. Surprisingly, our trade balance, which threatened to spiral out of
control by surging oil prices last year, has been contained. Since then, oil
prices have retreated and are expected to remain subdued. While a rate cut
may go some way in reviving sentiment and activity in the industrial sector,
stirring up consumer demand will still hinge on a normal monsoon.
Rain, rain, come again
For many economists, the prediction of India clinging to its current GDP
level is heavily contingent on a normal spell of monsoon this year.
"According to our assessment, we believe the Indian economy will grow by
around 6.5 per cent this fiscal year," says Chetan Ahya, vice president at J
M Morgan Stanley Securities.
In 2000-01, agricultural growth withered under a poor monsoon and a
subsequent drought in many parts of the country. For the second year in a
row, growth in the sector sank below one per cent. It stood at 0.9 per cent
compared with 0.7 per cent the previous year. While agriculture accounts for
only 24 per cent of GDP, it remains the most keenly-watched sector by
economists. "The performance of the agricultural sector is important because
of its linkages to the economy both on the supply side and on the consumption
side," says Mohan Nagarajan, chief economist at Credit Analysis and Research
Ltd (CARE). "It would lead to a better performance of agro-based industries,"
he adds.
More significantly, roughly 60 per cent of Indians still depend on
agriculture for their livelihood. "A good crop means that demand for
everything, from everyday use goods like toothpaste to larger items like
tractors will pick up," says Nagarajan. Economists are hoping that a good
monsoon will budge growth in the sector to around 1.5 to 2.5 per cent.
In service of the economy
Another key sector economists will be watching out for will be services.
India's services sector ranging from finance, insurance, hospitality to
transportation and communication slowed its pace in 2000-01. With growth
weakening by a whole per cent to 8.4 in 2000-01, sluggishness in this
important sector has been blamed for dragging down the overall GDP. Most
economists expect the sector to post either relatively flat growth or edge
slightly higher this year. But, it's performance will be vital to ensure that
overall GDP holds at six per cent. "Even if the agriculture and industry
numbers fall again but services sees even seven to eight per cent growth, it
will be enough to keep the GDP around six per cent," says Nagarajan.
Construction activity a services component that includes housing, roads and
other infrastructure projects demonstrated surprisingly good growth of 8.7
per cent and is expected to maintain the pace. Road construction is tipped to
show increasing levels of activity as work on the ambitious highway linking
Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Calcutta intensifies.
Chiming in will be the housing industry, benefiting in recent years from tax
reliefs and attractive financing schemes, and which have encouraged more
people to buy houses.
Another segment slated to witness good growth will be IT-enabled services,
says Morgan Stanley's Ahya. "We are emerging as the services workshop of the
world," he says. IT-enabled services like call centres and data processing,
though currently generating tiny revenues, are slated to turn into big money
spinners in the years ahead.
The telecommunications industry will also see improving levels of investment.
"The penetration of services is so low, that it has an intrinsic high growth
rate," says Ahya. For a taste of the market, consider this: out of the 100
Indians, only one uses the Internet and less than three own a telephone.
A good home show
And there could be a pleasant surprise in store for industry amid all the
gloom over its performance.
Adequate liquidity conditions are spurring expectations of a cut in interest
rates. Broad money(M3) a gauge of total money available in the economy
increased 16.2 per cent in 2000-01 against 14.6 per cent last year.
While the Reserve Bank of India had cut the bank rate in March, the belief is
that a further cut of 50 basis points is imminent. The bank rate the rate at
which the central bank lends to commercial banks currently stands at seven
per cent. Aiding the cause is the inflation data which shows the wholesale
price index at a tame 5.84 per cent. With economists betting that oil prices
will remain in the $24-28 a barrel range, inflation is not expected to
exhibit the oil price-inspired gyrations of last year. A cut could coax the
industry to step up activity, though admittedly, much would still depend on
rural demand.
Neighbours' envy
And while many Asian countries watch with increasing nervousness the impact
of an American downturn on their economies, India and China can afford to
remain relatively placid about global developments. That's because they are
less dependent on the US for their own economic health. That is expected to
shield them somewhat from being blown off-course like some other Asian
nations by the ill-wind of an American slump in demand.
With exports making up less than 10 per cent of India's GDP, its economy is
clearly not export-driven. In contrast, nearly 35 per cent of Indonesia's GDP
comes from exports, 57 per cent for Thailand, and 50 per cent for the
Philippines.
Yet, despite claiming only a small percentage of GDP, India's exports
remained a bright spot amid some gloomy economic data. Exports raced ahead 20
per cent to $44.1 billion in 2000-01. It was the second consecutive year of
good exports growth. On the flip side, imports rose, too, during the same
period to Rs $49.1 billion. But non-oil imports, however, declined 15 per
cent to $34.2 billion. That helped narrow the trade gap to $5.74 billion from
$12.79 billion the previous year.
Still, India can ill-afford to ignore completely the risks of an American
slump in demand. The US is India's largest trading partner and, in 2000-01, a
quarter of its exports headed to that nation. Besides, by taking in nearly 70
per cent of India's software exports, it is also India's most important
software exports destination.
Booming software exports accompanied by remittances by Indians living
overseas have been the primary factors exerting a calming influence on
India's balance of payments of position, especially in times of economic
turbulence. For example, last year, while a surging oil import bill
threatened to rattle the nation's trade gap, inflows from
invisibles(including income from software and Indians living abroad) came to
the rescue helping India limit its overall current account deficit.
It's a sobering realisation that has compelled the National Association of
Software and Service Companies(NASSCOM) to lower its exports forecast to
between $8.5 billion to $9 billion from its previous figure of $9.5 billion.
Earlier, it had also revised estimates for 2000-01 lower to $6.2 billion from
$6.3 billion. Still, observers say it isn't a cause for depression.
"They are still talking about growth. It is a decline in the growth rate and
not an actual downturn itself," points out John Band, chief executive
officer, ASK-Raymond James and Associates. And remittances look set to
maintain their pace as well. "Most remittances are still from Indians who
live in the Middle East, and I don't see any slowdown from this segment,"
says CARE's Nagarajan. Remittances totalled $9.8 billion in the nine months
to December 2000. Software exports brought in $4.6 billion during the same
period.
Foreign institutions support
Another recent 'feel-good' sign has been evident in the stock markets too.
Between January and April 2001, eigners poured in Rs 7,368 crore into India's
equity markets - a phenomenal 15 per cent more than what they invested in the
whole of calendar 2000.
Yet, experts aren't reading too much into it. In the past few months,
investors have been fleeing from a shower of profit warnings in the US and
seeking cover in alternative investments. As they rejuggle their portfolios,
some money will inevitably flow into India and other countries, experts say.
Because it isn't affected so much by what's happening externally, they see
India as some kind of a safe haven," says ASK's Band.
Yet some hesitation
Recently, gunning for more foreign direct investments (FDI), the government
opened more sectors for foreign and private participation, including
pharmaceuticals, hotels, banking and astonishingly, even defence. However,
tempting FDI has always been a vexing issue for India.
In 2000-01, FDI did improve slightly, moving 26 per cent higher than the
previous year to $2.4 billion. Yet, China a market India is frequently
compared with in terms of size and potential attracted 20 times more FDI in
the same period. Economists now shrug off FDI as a tool to kick-start
investment in the country. "It's a pittance and it probably will remain
stagnant," says an economist at a foreign research house.
The reasons are not hard to find. Foreigners seeking to invest in India have
many fences to cross. Frequent changes in sector policies, chaotic
infrastructure facilities and nightmarish bureaucratic redtape have often
left foreigners tired and wary of doing business in India.
The stress of investing in India is most clearly visible in the recurring
concerns that have stubbornly dogged US energy giant Enron's 2,148 MW power
project in Dabhol in Maharashtra. After being forced to renegotiate a power
supply deal in 1995 after concluding it in 1992, Enron has hit the headlines
once again.
This time, an almost bankrupt state electricity board (SEB) refuses to pay
its dues for power received and the state government refuses to honour its
commitment to pay in case the SEB defaults.It's led to intense speculation
that, after suffering repeated snags for nearly a decade, Enron might simply
pull out of the project altogether. A disturbing turn of events, since, till
recently, Enron Corp was the biggest foreign investor in India.
It will not be the first time that exasperation will have egged on a foreign
investor to pull out of a project. Earlier, US-based Cogentrix Energy had
also walked out of its $1.5 billion 1,000 MW Mangalore power project citing
endless bureaucratic hurdles.
And there has also been some disappointment over India's much-hyped 300
million middle class which was supposed to be growing rapidly. Many
international firms, inspired by this figure, had scrambled to set up
operations to conquer a huge chunk of this market. Now many are struggling to
break even and still learning to adapt to local tastes a key ingredient for
success. That's why despite all its attempts to open up various sectors,
India still remains a tough sell.
Outlook
With a little help from the rains, India could notch up a growth rate of six
per cent. Many economists have also pointed out that a reforms-studded budget
could also inject some enthusiasm in the patient that is the economy. Strong
measures include plans to reform labour laws and government employment. These
are expected to boost the economy's development, though in the long run.
The recent opening up of various sectors could also revive sentiment,
although whether this will translate into FDI flows is arguable. Still, every
bit helps. The fact remains that it will have to persist in trying to
accelerate the pace of growth if its ambitions of turning into an economic
powerhouse are to be realised. After all, for the second most populous nation
in the world with one of the biggest markets, its economic power is still
nowhere near the figure its size suggests.

Italian brokers Rasfin SIM have indicated the potential for growth in the
shares of Acegas, the former municipal utility of the Italian city of
Trieste. Acegas closed the first quarter of this year with turnover of L137bn
(+45 per cent). Results attributed in part to the start of production of
Estenergy, a consortium of the utilities of Udine, Trieste, Gorizia and Enron
of the US, which supplies energy and services to parts of Friuli.
Also significant, according to Rasfin, were investments over the period,
which totalled L43bn.

Sometimes even Cabinet officers can lose their way in the White House. So
there was Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy G. Thompson, clearly lost
Friday at a fork in a corridor near White House spokesman Ari Fleischer's
office.
"How do you get to the Oval Office?" he asked a group of reporters and was
directed to the right door, according to a wire report.
Fleischer, though, told reporters that was the wrong answer.
"How do you get to the Oval Office? First you win the Iowa caucus, then you
lose the New Hampshire primary, then you make a comeback in South Carolina,"
he quipped as he recalled President Bush's early primary campaign last year.
Passport, Please
Meanwhile, folks at Thompson's HHS may be taking to calling him "Tightwad
Tommy." Seems a memo went out March 15 undermining Alaska and Hawaii's claims
to be part of the United States.
Employees "must clear . . . international travel" with the office of the
deputy chief of staff for operations, said the memo from the deputy chief, Ed
Sontag. To clarify, "HHS employees seeking to travel outside the continental
U.S." for meetings and conferences, must get permission and then file trip
reports within two weeks.
This sent officials calling around, asking whether trips to those states were
to go through the international travel approval system just as if they were
going to Russia or the Congo.
Apparently so. The edict would appear to include even the nearby Virgin
Islands and practically next-door Puerto Rico as well. Loop Fans can only
hope this outrage doesn't spread to other agencies. It would make for some
cold winters.
Chewing Out on the Bush Beat
Speaking of Fleischer, the usually affable spokesman is not reluctant to get
tough with reporters when he believes they've stepped out of line.
Sheriff Fleischer was on duty Thursday and upset with Houston Chronicle
reporter Bennett Roth. Bush that morning urged parents to talk more to their
kids about the dangers of drugs.
Roth, at Fleischer's daily briefing, asked: "Ari, the president talked about
parental involvement today. How much has he talked to his own daughters about
both drugs and drinking? And given the fact that his own daughter was cited
for underage drinking, isn't that a sign that there's only so much effect
that a parent can have on their children's behavior?"
Fleischer responded brusquely: "No, I think, frankly, there are some issues
where I think it's very important for you all in the press corps to recognize
that he is the president of the United States; he's also a father. And the
press corps has been very respectful in the past of treating family matters
with privacy, and I'm certain that you're going to do so again. I hope so."
Fleischer later called Roth to chastise him, telling him his question had
been "noted in the building."
Competing to Oversee the Corps
Former Mississippi representative Mike Parker, a Democrat-turned-Republican
who lost a gubernatorial bid a couple of years back, had been seen as the
pick to be assistant secretary of the Army for civil works, overseeing the
Army Corps of Engineers.
Parker, a former undertaker, had support from the barge industry, the various
corps constituencies and fellow Mississippian Trent Lott, the majority leader
of the Senate.
But the Pentagon's choice was Lawrence Izzo, recently retired president of
Enron Engineering and Construction Co. who has been in the mix for several
jobs. Izzo, a West Point grad, had 23 years at the Corps before going to
Enron, former home of Army secretary-designate Thomas White.
The majority leader was said to be most unhappy. The latest word is Parker's
getting the job.
Ex-Reporters Move On
Kenneth J. Klein, a former reporter who has worked for 17 years for Florida
Sen. Bob Graham (D), most recently as chief of staff, is joining the Outdoor
Advertising Association of America as executive vice president for government
relations.
Former Washington Post colleague Thomas W. Lippman, a 33-year national,
foreign and financial reporter and author who became vice president of
communications at the World Wildlife Fund in 1999, is moving next month to be
managing director at communications consulting firm Chlopak, Leonard,
Schechter & Associates.

Largest LNG 13 Conference Opens Today
05/14/2001
Korea Times
Copyright (C) 2001 Korea Times; Source: World Reporter (TM)
The largest-ever International Conference and Exhibition on liquefied natural
gas (LNG 13) opens today for a four-day run at the Convention and Exhibition
Center (COEX) in southern Seoul.
A total of 125 companies and organizations represented by 2,500 delegates and
exhibitors from 50-odd countries, including Japan, the United States, Britain
and Australia, are participating in the international event, co- organized by
the Korea Gas Union and the Korea Gas Corp. (KOGAS).
Commerce, Industry and Energy Minister Chang Che-shik will be delivering
congratulatory remarks on behalf of Prime Minister Lee Han-dong who is
currently on an official trip to the Middle East. There will be a visual
presentation from Lee during the opening ceremony.
``We have spent more than a year preparing for this international event which
is the largest in terms of the number of participants and exhibitors,'' said
Lee Seung-hwan, chairman of the Korean National Organizing Committee.
LNG 13 is 15 percent larger than the conference and exhibition held in
Australia back in 1998 which reflects the growth of the industry, Lee
explained, adding that the demand for LNG has been increasing rapidly here in
Korea.
A wide range of topics will be presented during the four days of conferences
and exhibitions, helping to showcase the importance of the LNG industry.
Among the numerous papers to be presented at the triennial event are ``Old
World, New World, Tomorrow's World: How LNG Has Changed Since LNG 12'' and
``The Next Generation of LNG Plants.''
``Hosting this meaningful event in Korea will help elevate Korea's image in
the international market, particularly with the sheer scale and size of LNG
13,'' said Kim Myung-kyu, president and CEO of KOGAS and chairman of the
Korea gas Union.
The conference will include paper sessions, workshops, poster sessions and
film presentations while exhibitors will demonstrate their exclusive
technologies for the exploration and production of LNG as well as plant
construction.
The official sponsors of LNG 13 are the International Gas Union, the Gas
Technology Institute and the International institute of Refrigeration while
the major sponsors are Shell Gas and Power, KOGAS, LG-Caltex, SK-Enron, the
Qatari Group, TotalFinaElf, British Petroleum and Exxon Mobile.
In addition to the conference and exhibition, there will be a technical visit
to the Inchon LNG Receiving Terminal in Inchon, about 50 kilometers west of
Seoul, on Friday.

Mark nothing has changed since our meeting last week, but here's a quick summary for your convenience:
1. Deliberation 15: COMAE (board for ASMAE, which acts as the clearinghouse for the MAE) issued Deliberation 15 directing ASMAE to do its accounting without applying Annex V by Oct. 31, 2001. The generators object because without Annex V, they are 20% short instead 5% short. Elektro and the LDCs object because failure to apply Annex V ignores the contract which is registered with the MAE, and a 20% long position will never be upheld. Deliberation 15 further directs ASMAE to gather and supply to the generators and LDCs the information for application of Annex V, seven days prior to Oct 31. This is good because it gives Elektro the information it needs to calculate the set off against the generators for its 5% long position. Thus, it is unnecessary for Elektro to seek an injunction against ASMAE compelling the information.
2. Letter to COMAE/ASMAE: To preserve its position, Elektro sent a letter objecting to the COMAE's failure to direct ASMAE to apply Annex V. The letter confirms a list of information LDCs require for the calculation. If the information is not provided or is delayed, Elektro will go to court to compel the information. Once it gets the information, Elektro can go to court to force ASMAE to apply Annex V. Prior to taking the set off, Elektro will seek an injunction to protect its assets from seizure by the generators under Annex VI. Subsequently, Elektro will file a suit against the generators to enforce the contractual application of Annex V.
3. Two suits are being filed immediately to compel ANEEL to permit Elektro to recover or pass through various costs increases pursuant to its concession agreement.

Dear Investor,
So far, so good.
My early-October projection of Dow 10,000 by
Thanksgiving came true a few days early. Now I expect
the market to zigzag its way somewhat higher over the
course of the next two years.
But please, don't go out and "buy the market." Index
funds and the like may make you richer...but they won't
make you truly RICH. That's because the gap between
winners and losers will be quite large -- in some
cases HUGE -- in the reawakening ahead.
YOU SEE, in some ways the economic and market
pessimists are RIGHT. Things are different this time
around. And it's unwise to expect a rising tide that
lifts all boats. But the right stocks will pay you
handsomely if you buy them now.
The pessimists may rail about Japan's debt load, the
mess in Argentina and Enron's collapse. But frankly,
my friend, the sky is not all gray. We're actually
beginning to see some upward earnings revisions. And
a handful of stocks we own -- like Cendant, SEI
Investments and Harrah's Entertainment -- are already
UP 40%-to-50% from September's lows. More will
follow.
As you'll discover, the pessimists are WRONG about the
most important issue: We're not headed for some
deflationary death grip or worldwide economic disaster
-- despite the evidence they cite. Rather we are in
the midst of economic change -- marked by harsh
competition, rapid innovation and hand wringing --
that is a STOCK PICKER'S DREAM.
And in just a moment, I'll share my finely-honed
strategy for market-beating gains -- one that could
easily make you 50% RICHER by the end of the year.
SO PLEASE excuse me if I don't buy all the doom and
gloom.
I respect the intelligence and opinions of the
pessimists. But for more than 20 years, I've chosen
to go my own way...discover the facts on my own...and
stand up for what I see.
In fact, I visited 18 countries on five continents
last year. I live part of the year in Europe; just
visited Argentina to size up that situation for
myself; and regularly spend weeks at a time in Greater
China. Why? Because like it or not, we truly live in
a global economy. And by understanding how it works,
I help my clients SAFELY GROW RICH.
HOW? A time-tested strategy that identifies hot
growth prospects, when the risk of owning them is near
-- or at -- its lowest point. That's why the
companies I choose span a host of industries, but they
all have four things in common:
1. Financials that show a company solidly in an upward
trend;
2. Management with a laser-like focus on improving the
bottom line;
3. Distinct competitive advantages within its market
niche;
4. And a stock price selling at the low end of its
usual trading range.
THAT'S THE ONLY WAY to invest for low-risk, fortune-
building gains. And once you join me, I know you'll
agree.
I've just put the finishing touches on my annual list
of "PROFIT ROCKETS" for my Investor's World clients
and thought you might want a peek, as well.
In fact, you can get it IMMEDIATELY with a few simple
mouse-clicks -- and 100% RISK-FREE, as well. Since I
first issued this annual forecast back in 1995, my
clients have really cleaned up -- shouldn't you make a
pile of money this year, too?
From the beginning of 1995 through the end of 2001,
this annual portfolio of "Profit Rockets" has racked
up a cumulative gain of 287.5%! That's over a seven-
year period. Do the division yourself and see how it
looks. NOT BAD! And that time period includes the
worst bear market of the last 25 years -- we were
actually UP another 14% in 2001.
Today, I provide this portfolio solely to my
Investor's World clients. But I first started making
this "annual forecast" in 1995 as a regular panelist
on Wall $treet Week With Louis Rukeyser.
IN 1995, I was #1 among over 20 world-class investors
with gains of 63.3% -- as audited by Bloomberg. In
1996, I "slipped" to #2. And in 1999, I just missed
out on top honors with a NICE FAT 60.4% GAIN.
And frankly, I've been helping investors like you to
oversized gains for more than twenty years now.
When the pessimists cried that oil was going to $100 a
barrel in the 1980s, I led my clients to the rational
truth and more big profits. After the crash of 1987,
I debated every pessimist I could find. And back in
1993 -- with stocks in the dumps and the pessimists
having a field day -- I told clients to buy for the
greatest bull market in history.
I was right each time. And I'm staking my reputation
-- and my own money -- on the well-considered belief
that I'm right again.
So please, I urge you, try my Investor's World
advisory RISK-FREE. As soon as you sign up, you'll
get my full list of 10 Profit Rockets for 2002
immediately, online. Just click here now:

Rumors of Eni / Enron Merger Abound, Despite Denials from Eni
By: Will McNamara, Director, Electric Industry Analysis
===============================================================
Eni, the Italian oil and gas group, is expected to complete the sale of
its Italian property interests next week as part of its strategy to focus
on its core activities of natural-gas and oil production. Vittorio Mincato,
Eni's chief executive, confirmed that the group is on the verge of
finalizing
the sale of its Immobiliare Metanopoli property subsidiary (Eni's real
estate company) with assets valued between $856 million and $1.3 billion.
Eni's decision to divest its property assets has been viewed by many
observers
of the company as an attempt to release funds to facilitate a merger with
another company. Enron Corp. has been among those on a rumored short list
of merger prospects for Eni.
ANALYSIS: Is the foundation being established for a mega-merger between
Eni and Enron? It is not too difficult to formulate a theoretical argument
in that direction.
Eni is Italy's state-owned, multi-faceted energy company, operating in
the oil and gas, power generation, petrochemicals, oilfield services, and
engineering industries. The company has a market capitalization of about
47 billion euros (approximately $40 billion), is present in over 70
countries
and produces more than one million barrels of oil equivalent a day. Across
the European energy market-which once it has fully privatized will represent
an arguably larger market than the United States-Eni is unquestionably
one of the Continent's leading champions.
Illustrating this point, Eni has taken several important steps within Europe
to, as it says, "play an increasingly important role" in the Continent's
competitive energy market. For instance, earlier this month, Eni inked
a deal to sell 2 billion cubic meters of natural gas to Gaz de France.
This deal followed a previous agreement in which Eni agreed to sell 4
billion
cubic meters of natural gas to Italy's largest private energy supplier,
Edison. With both agreements, Eni has given a substantial kick start to
the opening of the European natural-gas market. CEO Mincato has said that
Eni would recoup the losses made by giving up its market hold in Italy
by "focusing on international markets."
One move that Eni has made outside of Europe also came earlier this month.
Eni made a bid for Australia's Petroz NL, which wields an 8.25 percent
stake in Bayu-Undan, the giant gas and liquids project located off the
northern coast of Australia. Eni already owns 6.7 percent of Bayu-Undan
and apparently is attempting to gain a majority ownership over the project.
It is no wonder why-the Bayu-Undan field has recoverable reserves of 400
million barrels of liquefied petroleum gas and gas reserves of 3.4 trillion
cubic feet. Petroz has not yet accepted Eni's offer, but a favorable
decision
is expected shortly. Thus, whatever Eni may be divesting in Italy it is
trying to regain in other key areas of the world. In fact, Mincato recently
confirmed that Eni plans to increase its daily output of oil from a current
level of 1.2 million barrels to 1.5 million barrels by 2003.
Moreover, Eni has been making aggressive attempts at expansion, both within
Europe and beyond. Along with that expansion comes the development of merger
strategy. Eni does not want to be left as a target for a takeover, which
could be a strong possibility given its recent divestitures and the fact
that its profits remain strong. Net income for the company for the first
half of 2000 was 2,606 millions of euros (equivalent to approximately $2.2
billion), representing a 119-percent increase. Eni is largely considered
one of the best buys among the big oil stocks, but it would rather merge
with an equal partner than be sold to another company. As consolidation
of the oil industry continues, Eni reportedly believes that the only way
to remain a top player is to marry an equally large player on the world
stage.
Enron may be at the top of Eni's list of merger partners. Negotiations
with Spain's largest oil company, Repsol, appear to have stalled, as was
confirmed when Mincato stated that any "link-up with Repsol would not be
a merger of equals." French oil company TotalFina is also interested, but
is preoccupied with its own acquisition of fellow French oil company Elf.
Other companies that have been mentioned include Conoco and Phillips
Petroleum.
It is quite obvious that Eni's merger prospects are predominantly oil
companies,
which is quite clearly the company's intention. Thus, it may seem odd that
Enron is also included as a top prospect. Enron, while unquestionably a
world player, is known for its unorthodox approach to hard assets. Put
succinctly, Enron believes that it doesn't need to own physical assets
in order to be a major player, but rather it only needs to rely on strategic
contractual agreements.
However, if Eni wants to continue to expand globally, it arguably could
not find a better partner than Enron, generally considered North America's
biggest buyer and seller of electricity and natural gas. Enron's gas trading
and distribution activities in particular-along with its electricity
production,
raw material trading and broadband expansion-would all appear to be good
compliments to Eni's portfolio. Reports of talks between the two companies
first appeared in the Italian financial paper iL Sole 24 Ore, based on
input from an unnamed source. The report indicated that Enron is being
targeted by Eni for an equity partnership or even a full merger. Mincato,
as recently as Tuesday of this week, continues to adamantly deny that any
deal with Enron is being studied.
Not surprisingly, Enron is remaining mum on the rumors and has not even
mentioned Eni in any recent disclosures. However, the incorporation of
Eni's power production portfolio would support Enron's expansion into new
markets such as Japan, for example. Back in March, the Japanese government
began allowing non-utility firms to supply power to industrial and
commercial
end-users. Almost simultaneously, Enron established a new subsidiary, Enron
Japan Corp., to capitalize on new opportunities in the country. Enron
Japan's
first offer is a 10-percent discount off current electricity prices for
customers who sign on with Enron for two to four years. Operating against
its North American strategy, Enron also plans to build a power station
in northern Japan, beating to the punch several of its key rivals, including
Vivendi, Texaco and Royal Dutch Shell, which also have expressed interest
in establishing operations in the country.
Enron's proposed power plant should give the company prime access to
companies
in the Tohoku and Kanto regions, as well as Tokyo, the "big catch" of the
Japanese market. In my opinion, herein lies the primary synergy that would
make the partnership between Eni and Enron a strategic step for both
companies.
As Eni attempts to position itself in various key markets, Japan seems
like a natural location, and I've seen no reports that indicate Eni is
moving into Japan on its own. The fact that Enron is already there, along
with most other lucrative international markets, must certainly be appealing
to Eni. Regarding Enron's perspective on any potential partnering, Eni's
substantial oil and natural-gas generation assets, along with its current
lock on the European market, must be very attractive.
Enron's current market capitalization is about $48 billion, which actually
makes it larger than Eni. This raises the question of which company would
be the buying partner if a merger were to indeed take place. All of the
rumors flying around currently speak of Eni pursuing Enron, but it could
just as easily be the other way around. Those of us who follow Enron closely
may find it hard to believe that the powerhouse company would ever be the
target for a takeover or even a merger. In any case, the rumors continue
to fly as Eni responds to claims of "thou doth protest too much." Whether
or not any such merger between Eni and Enron, which appears smart on paper,
will materialize remains to be seen. However, it certainly seems like Eni
is lining up its chess pieces to cement some kind of partnership in the
very near future.

Steve,
Here are my first-cut comments on this great event. These
would be comments from my office.
As much or as little as is needed can be used. I do,
however, like the first two paragraphs.
I will be in Los Angeles Friday. Gil and Catherine Del
Paggio have copies of this.

Dear Market Participants:
The NYISO is pleased to inform you about the following enhancements to the
NYISO web server, MIS, SPIDER, Real-Time system and AutoSys that will be
implemented on September 25, 2001.
A new pilot application will be deployed between the NYISO and ISO-New
England to help automate the exchange of inter-regional transaction
schedules. Operations groups at both sites will receive automated
transfer of transaction data to facilitate the hourly transaction
checkout process.
The NYISO web infrastructure will be enhanced through the implementation
of BEA's WebLogic product. The new application server will be the
platform utilized by the MIS to provide bidding and scheduling
capability to Internet customers. The new software replaces the
NetDynamics product, will provide the same functionality, and will be a
more robust and reliable development platform for future enhancements.
New data postings will be made available on the web site to provide
real-time internal transmission limits and flows, as well as
transmission line scheduled and actual outages. This posting is part of
the collection of data requests made by the Business Issues Committee
(BIC) in September 2000.
A new Upload / Download template will be created that will enable Market
Participants to get access to generator adjusted megawatt data (current
and historic billing data).
If you any questions, please contact your Customer Relations Representative
or call the Help Desk at (518) 356-6060.
Regards,
Customer Relations | {

Having worked on the Enron Advisory council process, I have one observation:
consider having some or all of these individuals as "guest speakers" rather
than formal memebers. You can still have them review information, do their
homework, and tailor their remarks to Enron specifics.
Also, you should definitely include Paul Portney at Resources for the
Future. He sits on the Enron Advisory Council and knows the company well.

Subject: External Advisory Council
As we discussed at the last Corporate Responsibility task force meeting, one
activity that we have underway is recruiting an external advisory council.
This council will be comprised of global experts on environmental and social
issues, from non-governmental organizations and potentially other businesses,
to advise us on trends and issues in this area. An outline of the advisory
council structure, along with categories of experts and proposed names is
attached below.
We expect to convene meetings with this group twice a year, inviting the
Enron executive committee and board of directors, as well as the Corporate
Responsibility task force, to engage in a dialogue. We plan to present a
slate of possible candidates to Ken Lay and Jeff Skilling later this month,
and would appreciate your input and any ideas by March 16.
Thanks for your consideration. | {

Legislative package only delays pain, critics warn
By Craig D. Rose
UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER
September 1, 2000
Consumer and political leaders -- as well as Sempra Energy's chief executive
-- said yesterday that the three electricity bills before Gov. Gray Davis do
nothing to fix the fundamental cause of soaring bills.
The cause, they say, is that power generators can continue to charge what
most characterize as exorbitant prices for their electricity -- and consumers
ultimately face the daunting task of paying them.
No matter if all of the bills are signed, the leaders say California's power
market will remain a seller's game that gouges overmatched consumers. And
while San Diego Gas and Electric Co.'s hard-pressed customers may pay less
now, they will pay back all or nearly all the savings -- plus interest --
beginning in 2003.
"The governor's bill postpones the pain, but the pain is still there," said
Maureen O'Connor, a former mayor of San Diego who has been active in seeking
relief from the soaring bills afflicting SDG&E's 1.2 million electricity
customers.
The rate bill promoted by Davis and now awaiting his signature will have
SDG&E's customers pay about 6.5 cents per kilowatt hour for electricity, or
70 percent more than what they paid as recently as May.
Power companies, however, will continue to charge the customers as they have;
presently, they're charging about 21 cents per kilowatt hour for SDG&E
customers. The difference between 6.5 cents and whatever prices above that
level emerge from the state's volatile power market will be recorded as IOUs
for each customer in so-called balancing accounts.
A second bill before the governor could provide up to $150 million in state
money to help pay the balancing accounts, but the bulk of the IOUs will
almost certainly be paid by SDG&E customers themselves when they become due
in 2003 or 2004. A third bill before the governor would speed the
construction of power plants.
So while the rate bill lets customers pay less now than they owe, it
obligates them to pay the balance with interest later.
The situation creates the potential for a troublesome compounding effect: The
higher electricity prices grow, the more is set aside in the balancing
accounts -- and the greater the wallop to customer wallets when the accounts
come due.
Based upon prices now paid for future electric deliveries, Sempra Energy
estimates customers will owe $664 million by 2003. IOUs of that magnitude,
said SDG&E, will require that customers pay a surcharge of $40 monthly for a
year on top of whatever they are already paying for their power bills.
Keep in mind that typical residential bills at this time last year were about
$55; they now stand at about $130. Consumer advocates say it's likely power
prices will remain at levels that will lead to huge debts for customers under
the Davis proposal.
"The generators have shown themselves to be unconscionable in extorting
profits," said Nettie Hoge, executive director of TURN, a San Francisco-based
consumer group.
Hoge said the bills that emerged "seemed the best a corrupt system could spit
out." She added that TURN and other groups will shift their focus to
pressuring the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to restrain the electric
generating companies and wholesale power markets.
FERC, she said, must legally determine if charges from generating companies
are reasonable. TURN and other groups will also press for re-regulation of
the industry and will begin to explore municipally owned generating plants.
Michael Shames of the Utility Consumers' Action Network supports the Davis
bill, although he said it won't fix "the almost irreparably broken California
energy system."
"The problem is that California's electricity customers have been subjected
to market prices in a dysfunctional energy market," Shames said. "It's a
market controlled by the sellers of power and their cronies."
But Shames said the Davis bill provides at least temporary protection against
further rate shocks, and he expects taxpayers across the state will
ultimately assist SDG&E's customers in paying their electricity bills.
But Jamie Court, executive director of the Foundation for Taxpayer and
Consumer Rights, which has called for re-regulation of the industry, opposes
the rate-cap legislation.
"This keeps ratepayers and taxpayers on the hook for the costs," said Court,
who added that the bill also locks in near doubling of power rates compared
to last year.
Stephen Baum, chief executive officer of Sempra, said the bill puts SDG&E --
a Sempra subsidiary -- in the position of financing the difference between
what power companies charge for their power and what it collect from
customers over the next three years.
The balancing accounts, Baum said, could grow so large that they will
challenge Sempra's ability to borrow to cover them.
"The problem is with the wholesale markets," said Baum, who today becomes
chairman as well as chief executive of Sempra. "This legislation does nothing
but postpone a big bill."
He added that Sempra believed the bill included ambiguities that could be
illegal if not later clarified by the California Public Utilities Commission.
"If (the PUC) can't or won't, then I think the legislation is legally flawed
and can't stand," Baum said. | {
