EOG RESOURCES, INC.
Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure
I. First Quarter 2002
The forecast item for first quarter 2002 set forth below for
EOG Resources, Inc. ('the Company') is given as of the date of
this document only and is based on current available information
and expectations.
The Company currently anticipates a mark-to-market loss in
the first quarter from outstanding commodity price swaps of $34.3
million. During the first quarter, the cash realized from
outstanding commodity price swaps is expected to be $11.0
million.
II. Forward-Looking Statements
This document includes forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of performance. Although the
Company believes its expectations reflected in forward-looking
statements are based on reasonable assumptions, no assurance can
be given that these expectations will be achieved. Important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements
include, among others: the timing and extent of changes in
commodity prices for crude oil, natural gas and related products
and interest rates; the extent and effect of any hedging
activities engaged in by the Company; the extent of the Company's
success in discovering, developing, marketing and producing
reserves and in acquiring oil and gas properties; the accuracy of
reserve estimates, which by their nature involve the exercise of
professional judgment and may therefore be imprecise; political
developments around the world, including terrorist activities and
responses to such activities; and financial market conditions.
In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the
events anticipated by the Company's forward-looking statements
might not occur. The Company undertakes no obligations to update
or revise its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of
new information, future events or otherwise.
