                      QUARTERLY REPORT PURSUANT TO RULE 58

                  10 Lafayette Square, Buffalo, New York 14203

         This  Amendment  No. 1 to  National  Fuel  Gas  Company's  Form  U-9C-3
Quarterly  Report for the period  ended June 30, 1998 is being filed as a result
of the  following:  In May of  1998,  Seneca  Resources  Corporation,  a  direct
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 June 30, 1998 as set
forth below.

1.  "Item 1 - Organization Chart" is amended to include:

                               Energy or     Date of        State of

                           in HarCor Energy, Inc. which was acquired
                           pursuant to Rule 58.

    b.       100%          An oil and gas company which produces natural gas

    include:

    In May of 1998, Seneca Resources Corporation ("Seneca"), a wholly-owned
    subsidiary  of National  Fuel Gas Company,  acquired a 100% interest in
    HarCor  Energy,  Inc.  ("HarCor"),  an  oil  and  gas  exploration  and
    production  company  which  qualifies  as a  "gas-related  company" for
    purposes  of  Rule  58.  Seneca  is not a  "reporting  company"  but is
    included in this Item 1 because it  directly  holds  voting  securities
    issued by HarCor, a reporting company.
