This Amendment No. 1 to National Fuel Gas Company's Form U-9C-3
Quarterly Report for the period ended September 30, 1998 is being filed as a

wholly-owned subsidiary of National Fuel Gas Company, acquired HarCor Energy,
Inc. ("HarCor") under the authority of Rule 58 (17 CFR Sec. 250.58). National
Fuel Gas Company inadvertently failed to include information regarding HarCor in
its Form U-9C-3 Quarterly Report for the periods ended June 30, 1998 and
September 30, 1998. Accordingly, this report amends National Fuel Gas Company's
original Form U-9C-3 Quarterly Report for the period ended September 30, 1998 as
