have  been  prepared  by Enron Corp. (Enron)  without  audit
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities  and
Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, these statements  reflect
all   adjustments  (consisting  only  of  normal   recurring
entries)  which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for  a  fair  statement  of the financial  results  for  the
interim  periods.   Certain information and  notes  normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with

3. LITIGATION

    As  reported in the Form 10-K, TransAmerican Natural Gas
Corporation  (TransAmerican) has filed  a  petition  against
Enron  Corp.  and  Enron  Oil & Gas Company  (EOG)  alleging
breach  of  confidentiality agreements, misappropriation  of
trade  secrets and unfair competition with respect  to  four
tracts in Webb County, Texas, which EOG leased for their oil
and    gas    exploration    and   development    potential.
TransAmerican  seeks  actual damages  of  $100  million  and
exemplary  damages of $300 million.  EOG  has  filed  claims
against  TransAmerican  and  its sole  shareholder  alleging
common law fraud, negligent misrepresentation and breach  of
state  antitrust  laws.  On April 6, 1994, Enron  Corp.  was
granted  summary  judgment, wherein the court  ordered  that
TransAmerican take nothing on its claims against Enron Corp.
As  to EOG, the trial date, which was most recently set  for
September  12,  1994, has been continued  and  there  is  no
current setting.  Although no assurances can be given, Enron
Corp.  and  EOG  believe  that  TransAmerican's  claims  are
without  merit.   Enron  Corp. believes  that  the  ultimate
resolution of this matter will not have a materially adverse
effect on its financial position or results of operations.

   As reported in the Form 10-K, a pipeline company in which
an  Enron affiliate has a minority interest and for which an
Enron affiliate has served as operator, has filed a petition
against Enron and certain affiliates alleging an unspecified
amount of damages relating to the operation of such pipeline
company.  Based upon information currently available, it  is
not  possible  to  predict the outcome of  such  litigation;
however,  Enron  believes that the result will  not  have  a
materially  adverse effect on Enron's financial position  or
results of operations.

    In  connection with Florida Gas Transmission's (FGT,  an
indirect  50% owned subsidiary of Enron) Phase III  pipeline
expansion, on September 16, 1994, the Florida Department  of
Environmental Protection (FDEP) entered an order  suspending
FGT's  construction activities in wetland areas  in  Florida
alleging  that  certain construction  activities  failed  to
conform with permits previously issued by that agency.   The
FDEP  also  instituted administrative  proceedings  for  the
imposition  of civil penalties for such alleged  violations.
On  September  23,  1994, FGT and the FDEP  entered  into  a
consent  order  in which the FDEP lifted its  suspension  of
construction south of Suwannee County, Florida and agreed to
lift  its  suspension  on  northern Florida  wetlands  areas
construction  upon  FGT's  adoption  of  certain  oversight,
training  and wetlands restoration and mitigation practices,
payment of $210,000 into the FDEP's Pollution Recovery  Fund
and  reimbursement  of  another  $16,000  in  administrative
expenses.   The consent order was effective as of  September
23, 1994.

         NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



    On  October  7,  1994,  the FDEP issued  notice  of  its
intention to assess FGT with an additional civil penalty  of
$365,400  for  alleged  violations of wetlands  permits  and
regulations in northern Florida.  FGT is not contesting  the
alleged violations or civil penalties assessed by the  FDEP,
and   FGT   has  agreed  to  pay  such  penalty.   FGT   has
substantially  increased  its efforts  to  comply  with  all
requirements  for  construction  in  wetlands   areas,   and
currently  estimates that the in-service date for the  Phase
III expansion will be February 1, 1995.

4. EOTT ENERGY PARTNERS, L.P.

    During  March 1994, EOTT Energy Corp. (EOTT), a  wholly-
owned  subsidiary of Enron, sold its crude oil  trading  and
transportation operations to EOTT Energy Partners, L.P. (the
EOTT  Partnership) in exchange for common  and  subordinated
units  in  the  EOTT  Partnership.  EOTT  continues  to  own
approximately 40% of the EOTT Partnership.  Accordingly, the
EOTT  Partnership's results of operations are  reflected  as
equity  in  earnings  of  unconsolidated  subsidiaries   for
periods subsequent to March 1994.

6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

   During November 1994, FGT completed the issuance and sale
of  $700  million  principal amount of  Senior  Notes  in  a
privately  placed transaction.  Proceeds from  the  offering
were  used  to refinance funds advanced to FGT in connection
with Phase III (including $150 million advanced from Enron).

                ENRON CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
         NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



    In connection with the issuance of the FGT Senior Notes,
Enron  has  agreed to purchase 50% of the FGT  Senior  Notes
(the Purchase Agreement) at par plus accrued interest in the
event  that  FGT's largest customer exercises its  right  to
terminate its Phase III transportation agreement because the
Phase III facilities are not in service to deliver the total
minimum  daily transportation quantity specified  under  the
transportation agreement prior to January 14, 1996.   Should
the  in-service date of Phase III occur prior to such  date,
Enron  will  be  released  from  its  obligation  under  the
Purchase  Agreement.  Enron anticipates that the  Phase  III
expansion will be in service by February 1, 1995 and that it
will incur no liability under the terms of this agreement.

    During September 1994, Enron formed Enron Global Power &
Pipelines   L.L.C.  (EGPP),  a  Delaware  limited  liability
company, to own and manage Enron's operating power plant and
natural gas pipeline businesses conducted outside the United
States,  Canada  and Western Europe.  EGPP's initial  assets
were  contributed by Enron and consist of interests  in  two
power  plants in the Philippines, a power plant in Guatemala
and a natural gas pipeline system in Argentina.

    On October 18, 1994, EGPP filed a registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the offering
of  8.7 million common shares representing limited liability
interests in EGPP.  The registration statement has  not  yet
become  effective.  If the proposed offering  is  completed,
Enron  will  continue to own a majority  interest  in  EGPP.
Anticipated proceeds from the offering are estimated  to  be
approximately  $200 million and will be used  by  Enron  and
EGPP   to   reduce  indebtedness  and  for  other  corporate
purposes.

    During  October 1994, an explosion occurred  at  Enron's
methanol  plant  in  Pasadena, Texas.   The  plant  produces
approximately   420,000  gallons  of   methanol   per   day,
approximately half of which is used at Enron's  MTBE  plant.
Enron  is currently investigating the explosion to determine
the full extent of any damages; however, based upon business
interruption   and   casualty  insurance  coverages,   Enron
currently  anticipates that the explosion will  not  have  a
material adverse effect on its financial position or results
of operations.

                ENRON CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Third Quarter 1994
vs. Third Quarter 1993

    The  following review of Enron's results  of  operations
should   be   read  in  conjunction  with  the  Consolidated
Financial Statements.

CONSOLIDATED NET INCOME

    Enron's  third  quarter  1994 net  income  increased  to
approximately  $96.0  million as compared  to  approximately
$74.9 million during the third quarter of 1993, exclusive of
a  primarily non-cash charge to income of $54.0  million  to
adjust  accumulated  deferred tax  liabilities  due  to  the
increase  in the Federal corporate income tax rate from  34%
to  35%.   Net income in the third quarter of 1994 benefited
from  increased  earnings in all operating  segments  except
domestic   gas  processing  combined  with  lower   interest
expense.  Earnings  per share rose to  $0.38  in  the  third
quarter  of  1994  from $0.30 in the same  period  in  1993,
exclusive of $0.23 per share applicable to the primarily non-
cash  charge  to  adjust deferred tax liabilities  discussed
above.

INCOME BEFORE INTEREST, MINORITY INTERESTS AND INCOME TAXES

TRANSPORTATION AND OPERATION

   The transportation and operation segment includes Enron's
regulated  natural  gas pipelines, construction,  management
and   operation  of  pipelines,  liquids  plants  and  power
facilities and Enron's investment in crude oil marketing and
transportation  operations and liquids pipeline  operations.
The  segment's IBIT increased $14 million during  the  third
quarter of 1994 as compared to the same period in 1993.  The
increase was due primarily to increases in IBIT realized  by
the regulated natural
gas  pipelines offset by decreases in earnings from Northern
Border

Pipeline  (Northern  Border) and EOTT Energy  Corp.  (EOTT),
resulting  from  changes  in  ownership  interest  discussed
below.   Subsequent  to  the third quarter  of  1993,  Enron
contributed  its investment in Northern Border  to  Northern
Border  Partners,  L.P., a master limited  partnership  (the
Northern Border Partnership) and subsequently sold a portion
of   its   interest  in  the  Northern  Border  Partnership.
Additionally, in the first quarter of 1994 EOTT,  a  wholly-
owned  subsidiary of Enron, sold its crude oil  trading  and
transportation operations to EOTT Energy Partners, L.P. (the
EOTT Partnership).  EOTT continues to own approximately  40%
of  the EOTT Partnership.  The following discussion analyzes
the  significant changes in the various components  of  IBIT
for the transportation and operation segment.

REVENUES

    Revenues  of  the  transportation and operation  segment
decreased approximately $129 million (38%) during the  third
quarter of 1994 as compared to the same period in 1993.  The
decrease  in  revenues  primarily  reflects  reduced   sales
revenue  at Northern Natural Gas Company (Northern  Natural)
as  that  pipeline is now primarily a transporter of natural
gas.   Northern Natural's sales volumes decreased  from  351
million  cubic feet per day (Mmcf/d) to 78 Mmcf/d and  total
transport  volumes  increased from  3,799  Mmcf/d  to  4,130
Mmcf/d when comparing the third quarter of 1993 to the  same
period  in  1994.   Additionally, revenues  decreased  as  a
result   of  decreased  ownership  interest  in   the   EOTT
Partnership.

COST OF GAS AND OTHER PRODUCTS SOLD

     The  cost  of  gas  and  other  products  sold  by  the
transportation  and  operation  segment  decreased  by   $74
million  (87%) during the third quarter of 1994 compared  to
the  same  period in 1993 primarily as a result of decreased
gas  purchases by Northern Natural as that pipeline  is  now
primarily a transporter of natural gas.

OPERATING EXPENSES

    Operating  expenses in the transportation and  operation
segment  declined 35% during the third quarter  of  1994  as
compared  to the same period in 1993.  The decline primarily
reflects  operating expenses of EOTT being included  in  the
1993  period  and  excluded from the 1994 period  due  to  a
decreased   ownership  interest  in  the  EOTT  Partnership,
combined  with  lower operating expenses  of  the  regulated
natural gas pipelines.  The decline in operating expenses of
the   regulated   natural  gas  pipelines  reflects   system
modernization   and  lower  transmission,  compression   and
storage cost of gas purchased for resale as a result of  the
previously   discussed   transition   to   being   primarily
transporters of natural gas.

   Depreciation expense for the transportation and operation
segment  decreased $3 million (12%) during the third quarter
of  1994 as compared to the same period in 1993 primarily as
a  result  of the decreased ownership interest in  the  EOTT
Partnership.

OTHER INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS

     Equity   in  earnings  of  unconsolidated  subsidiaries
increased  $19 million during the third quarter of  1994  as
compared  to  the  same period in 1993 primarily  reflecting
increased earnings from Citrus Corp.  The increased earnings
are  a  result of increased allowance for funds used  during
construction related to the Phase III expansion  of  Florida
Gas  Transmission's  pipeline system (Phase  III),  improved
sales  margins  as  a  result of the  renegotiation  of  the
pricing terms of Citrus' gas sales contract with its largest
customer and a $5.0 million charge recorded by Citrus during
the third quarter of 1993 in connection with the 1% increase
in  the  corporate  Federal income tax rate.   In  addition,
increased  equity earnings from the formation  of  the  EOTT
Partnership during the first quarter of 1994 were offset  by
reduced  earnings  resulting from  the  decreased  ownership
interest in the Northern Border Partnership.

GAS SERVICES

   Enron's gas services segment had a $9 million increase in
income  before interest, minority interest and income  taxes
for  the  third  quarter of 1994 as compared  to  the  third
quarter  of  1993.   This  increase  was  due  primarily  to
increased earnings in the Finance business and in the  clean
fuels portion of the Liquids business, partially offset by
decreased  earnings  in  the gas operations.  The  following
discussion analyzes the contributions from the Gas, Finance,
Liquids, and Power business units.

    The Gas operations include price risk management and gas
marketing activities as well as physical natural gas trading
and   transportation   activities.   Earnings   from   these
activities  decreased  in  the  third  quarter  of  1994  as
compared  to the third quarter of 1993 as a result of  lower
income from fixed price contract originations in 1994.

    The Finance business includes activities associated with
production payments and financings arranged.  Earnings  from
this  business increased for the third quarter of  1994  due
primarily   to   gains   associated  with   certain   equity
investments.

   The Liquids business of gas services includes the natural
gas  liquids (NGL) marketing activities and the Clean  Fuels
business, which consists of the methanol and methyl tertiary
butyl  ether (MTBE) businesses.  Earnings increased in  1994
due  to  success and development of new products and service
offerings, as well as increased market prices in  the  Clean
Fuels  business.   This  increase was  partially  offset by
a decline in the NGL marketing activities due to lower product
prices.

    The  Power business includes activities such as managing
power-related   assets,   and   marketing   and    supplying
electricity.  This business is continuing the development of
the  electric  power markets.  Earnings  were  unchanged  in
third quarter 1994 as compared to the same period in 1993.

   Expenses such as rent, systems expenses and other support
group  costs  increased in 1994 as compared to 1993  due  to
continued  expansion into new markets, system upgrades,  and
fees for operational asset management.

GAS PROCESSING

    The  gas processing segment's IBIT decreased $12 million
primarily  due  to  decreased gross margins  realized  as  a
result  of  hedges placed on production to reduce the  price
volatility in this business.

EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION

    The  exploration and production segment's IBIT increased
33%  to  $53 million in the third quarter of 1994  from  $40
million   in  the  same  period  of  1993.   The   following
discussion analyzes the significant changes in the segment's

REVENUES

    The  exploration and production segment's gross revenues
decreased from $170 million in the third quarter of 1993  to
$155  million  in  the third quarter of 1994.   The  decline
reflects  a  22%  reduction in wellhead natural  gas  prices
combined  with  a  4%  reduction  in  wellhead  natural  gas
volumes.   Volume reductions reflect voluntary  curtailments
of  up to 25% of maximum deliverability in the United States
during  portions  of  the  third  quarter  of  1994  due  to
unfavorable  market  prices, partially offset  by  increased
natural gas deliveries in Trinidad and Canada.  Increases of
5%  and  52% in crude oil and condensate prices and volumes,
respectively,  partially  offset  the  decline  in  wellhead
natural  gas  revenues discussed above.  The crude  oil  and
condensate  volume  increases reflect  new  deliveries  from
offshore  Trinidad and increased production  in  the  United
States.   Other  natural  gas  marketing  revenues  declined
slightly reflecting lower average prices offset in  part  by
increased volumes.

 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)
                ENRON CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES



COSTS AND EXPENSES

   The cost of gas sold in connection with other natural gas
marketing activities declined from the third quarter of 1993
compared to the same period in 1994 due to 14% lower average
associated costs per Mcf offset in part by a 4% increase  in
other natural gas marketing volumes.

    Operating  and exploration expenses for the  exploration
and  production segment increased $3 million (6%) during the
third  quarter of 1994 when compared to the same  period  in
1993   primarily  reflecting  impairments  associated   with
certain offshore leases.

    Depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A)  expense
decreased  $10  million  reflecting  lower  North   American
production  volumes and a decline in the average  DD&A  rate
from $0.92 per thousand cubic feet equivalent (Mcfe) in  the
third quarter of 1993 to $0.79 per Mcfe in the third quarter
of  1994.   The  DD&A  rate decrease  is  primarily  due  to
production  from offshore Trinidad at an average  DD&A  rate
significantly less than the North American average rate  and
a  tempering of the North American rate as a result  of  the
curtailment  of  production  associated  with  higher   cost
reserves.

    Taxes  other  than  income increased  approximately  20%
primarily  due  to a reduction of franchise taxes  resulting
from  a  refund  in  the third quarter  of  1993  which  was
essentially equal to the reductions in state severance taxes
in  1994 due to lower taxable United States wellhead volumes
and lower average prices.

    Other income, net increased $21 million due primarily to
gains  on sales of oil and gas properties as the exploration
and  production  segment continued  its  strategy  of  fully
utilizing  its  assets through selected  property  sales  in
optimizing   profitability,  cash   flow   and   return   on
investments.

INTERNATIONAL GAS AND POWER SERVICES

    The  international segment includes international power,
gas   liquids  processing  and  pipeline  operations.    The
segment's IBIT increased $1 million during the third quarter
of  1994  as  compared  to the same  period  in  1993.   The
following discussion analyzes the significant changes in the
segment's results.

REVENUES

     Revenues   for  the  international  segment   decreased
primarily  due  to  the  transfer of the  international  gas
liquids  marketing operations to gas services in the  second
quarter of 1994.

 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)
                ENRON CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES



COSTS AND EXPENSES

     The  cost  of  gas  and  other  products  sold  by  the
international segment decreased as a result of the  transfer
discussed above. Operating expense increased primarily as  a
result of increased international activities.

OTHER INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS

     Equity   in  earnings  of  unconsolidated  subsidiaries
increased  by  $7 million during the third quarter  of  1994
compared to the same period in 1993 reflecting earnings from
two  Philippine power plants which began operations  in  mid
1993  and early 1994, combined with increased earnings  from
the Teesside power project and the Argentine pipeline.

INTEREST AND RELATED CHARGES, NET

    Interest  and related charges, shown net of  capitalized
interest,  decreased from approximately $74 million  in  the
third quarter of 1993 to $65 million in the third quarter of
1994.  The decrease in interest expense is primarily due  to
lower interest rates.

DIVIDENDS ON PREFERRED STOCK OF SUBSIDIARY COMPANY

    Dividends  on preferred stock of subsidiary company  are
related  to  the  issuance of 8.55 million shares  of  Enron
Capital  L.L.C.  8%  Cumulative  Guaranteed  Monthly  Income
Preferred  Shares  in November 1993 and the  issuance  of  3
million   shares  of  Enron  Capital  Resources,   L.P.   9%
Cumulative Preferred Securities, Series A in August 1994.

INCOME TAXES

    Income taxes decreased during the third quarter of  1994
as  compared  to  the third quarter of 1993 primarily  as  a
result   of  the  adjustment  of  deferred  tax  liabilities
recorded in the third quarter of 1993 in connection with the
increase  in the corporate Federal income tax rate from  34%
to 35% offset in part by higher pre-tax income.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1994
vs. Nine Months Ended September 30, 1993

    The  following review of Enron's results  of  operations
should   be   read  in  conjunction  with  the  Consolidated
Financial Statements.

CONSOLIDATED NET INCOME

    Enron's  net income for the nine months ended  September
30,  1994 (the 1994 Period) increased to approximately  $345
million as compared to approximately $282 million during the
nine  months  ended  September 30, 1993 (the  1993  Period),
exclusive  of a primarily non-cash charge to income  of  $54
million  to adjust accumulated deferred tax liabilities  due
to  the  increase in the corporate Federal income  tax  rate
from  34%  to 35%.  The increase in consolidated net  income
primarily reflects improved income before interest, minority
interests  and  income  taxes for all of  Enron's  operating
segments  except domestic gas processing as  well  as  lower
interest  and related charges.  This increase was  partially
offset  by  dividends on preferred stock of  subsidiary  and
increased  income tax expense. Earnings per  share  rose  to
$1.37  in  the  1994 Period from 1.13 in  the  1993  Period,
exclusive of $0.23 per share applicable to the primarily non-
cash  charge  to  adjust deferred tax liabilities  discussed
above.

INCOME BEFORE INTEREST, MINORITY INTERESTS AND INCOME TAXES

TRANSPORTATION AND OPERATION

    The transportation and operation segment realized a  $36
million increase in IBIT for the 1994 Period as compared  to
the  1993  Period.  The  following discussion  analyzes  the
significant  changes in the various components of  IBIT  for
the transportation and operation segment.

 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)
                ENRON CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES



REVENUES

    Revenues  of  the  transportation and operation  segment
decreased approximately $335 million (31%) during  the  1994
Period  as  compared to the 1993 Period.   The  decrease  in
revenues   primarily  reflects  reduced  sales  revenue   at
Northern  Natural  as  that  pipeline  is  now  primarily  a
transporter  of  natural  gas.   Northern  Natural's   sales
volumes  decreased from 415 Mmcf/d to 97  Mmcf/d  and  total
transport  volumes  increased from  3,918  Mmcf/d  to  4,414
Mmcf/d  when  comparing the 1993 Period to the 1994  Period.
Additionally, the decreased ownership interest in  the  EOTT
Partnership contributed to the decline in revenue.

COST OF GAS AND OTHER PRODUCTS SOLD

     The  cost  of  gas  and  other  products  sold  by  the
transportation  and  operation  segment  decreased  by  $226
million (81%) during the 1994 Period as compared to the 1993
Period  primarily as a result of decreased gas purchases  by
Northern Natural.

OPERATING EXPENSES

    Operating  expenses in the transportation and  operation
segment  declined 27% during the 1994 Period as compared  to
the   1993  Period.   The  decline  primarily  reflects  the
decreased   ownership  interest  in  the  EOTT  Partnership,
combined  with  lower operating expenses  of  the  regulated
natural gas pipelines due to system modernization and  lower
transmission, compression and storage cost of gas  purchased
for   resale  as  a  result  of  the  previously   discussed
transition to become primarily transporters of natural  gas.
Additionally, operating expenses decreased as  a  result  of
the decreased ownership interest in the EOTT Partnership.

   Depreciation expense for the transportation and operation
segment  decreased $12 million (15%) during the 1994  Period
as  compared to the 1993 Period primarily as a result  of  a
the  sale  of certain assets, full depreciation  of  certain
offshore  pipeline assets and a decreased ownership interest
in the EOTT Partnership.

OTHER INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS

     Equity   in  earnings  of  unconsolidated  subsidiaries
increased  by  $13 million (67%) during the 1994  Period  as
compared  to  the 1993 Period reflecting increased  earnings
from  Citrus Corp.  The increased earnings are a  result  of
increased  allowances  for  funds used  during  construction
related  to the Phase III expansion, improved sales  margins
as  a  result of the renegotiation of the pricing  terms  of
Citrus' gas sales contract with its largest customer  and  a
$5.0  million  charge recorded by Citrus  during  the  third
quarter  of 1993 in connection with the 1% increase  in  the
corporate  Federal income tax rate.  In addition,  increased
equity  earnings from the formation of the EOTT  Partnership
during  the  first  quarter of 1994 were offset  by  reduced
earnings resulting from the decreased ownership interest  in
the Northern Border Partnership.  Other

income,  net,  increased $19 million primarily  due  to  the
continued  resolution of regulatory and contractual  matters
on  Enron's  interstate  natural  gas  pipelines.   Interest
income  increased  due to carrying charges  associated  with
recoverable deferred transition costs.

GAS SERVICES

    The  gas services segment had a $48 million increase  in
income  before interest, minority interest and income  taxes
for  the  1994 Period as compared to the 1993 Period.   This
increase   was   due   primarily  to  significant   contract
originations  from selling natural gas to power  plants,  as
well as increased earnings in the clean fuels portion of the
Liquids  businesses.  The following discussion analyzes  the
contributions  from  the  Gas, Finance,  Liquids  and  Power
business units.

    Volume  and  price  statistics  (including  intercompany
amounts) are as follows:

   The earnings from gas related activities increased during
the  1994 Period primarily as a result of long-term contract

     Although   total  production  payments  and  financings
arranged  in the Finance business were greater in 1994  than
1993,  earnings  were slightly lower in the 1994  Period  as
compared  to the 1993 Period primarily due to the difference
in  the  types of transactions originated in each  of  these
periods and the timing of the income recognition from  those
transactions.

    Earnings for the Liquids business increased in the  1994
Period  as  compared  to  the 1993 Period  due  to  contract
originations   associated  with   new   product   offerings,
commodity price risk management activities, increased  clean
fuels  market  prices  and  the reflection  of  Clean  Fuels
contractual  commitments at market value.   These  increases
were  slightly  offset by a decrease in  the  NGL  marketing
activities due to lower product prices.

    The  earnings contributions from the Power business were
virtually unchanged for the 1994 Period as compared  to  the
1993 Period.

   Expenses such as rent, systems expenses and other support
group costs increased in the 1994 Period as compared to  the
1993  Period  due to continued expansion into  new  markets,
system upgrades and fees for operational asset management.

GAS PROCESSING

    The  gas processing segment's IBIT decreased $47 million
during  the  1994  Period as compared  to  the  1993  Period
primarily  due  to  decreased margins  primarily  reflecting
lower  product  prices and as a result of hedges  placed  on
production to reduce the price volatility in this  business.
Production  levels  were  also reduced  due  to  unfavorable
margins.

    Volume  and  price  statistics  (including  intercompany
amounts) are as follows:

28% to $132 million in the 1994 Period from $103 million  in
the  1993  Period.   The following discussion  analyzes  the
significant changes in the segment's results.

</TABLE>

REVENUES

    The  exploration and production segment's gross revenues
were  essentially  unchanged  during  the  1994  Period   as
compared to the 1993 Period. Increased revenues attributable
to  a  6%  increase in average wellhead natural gas  volumes
were  substantially  offset by an 11%  decrease  in  average
wellhead natural gas prices and 11% lower average prices for
crude oil and condensate.  Crude and condensate volumes rose
30%  during  the 1994 Period primarily reflecting production
from operations in Trinidad.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

   The cost of gas sold in connection with other natural gas
marketing activities increased $3 million (3%) from the 1993
Period compared to the 1994 Period reflecting a 14% increase
in  other natural gas marketing volumes partially offset  by
7% lower average associated costs per Mcf.

 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)
                ENRON CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES



    Operating  and exploration expenses for the  exploration
and  production segment increased $19 million  (16%)  during
the  1994  Period when compared to the 1993 Period primarily
reflecting increased exploration activities, an unsuccessful
well drilled in the Gulf of Mexico during the second quarter
of  1994,  higher lease impairments associated with  certain
offshore   leases  and  higher  general  and  administrative
expenses   resulting  from  higher  costs  associated   with
expanded international and domestic activities.

   DD&A expense declined slightly reflecting an average DD&A
rate  decrease  from $0.88 per Mcfe in the  1993  Period  to
$0.81  per  Mcfe in the 1994 Period partially offset  by  an
increase  in production volumes.  The DD&A rate decrease  is
primarily due to production from Trinidad operations  at  an
average DD&A rate significantly less than the North American
operations average DD&A rate.

    Taxes  other  than  income  decreased  approximately  $4
million primarily due to reductions in state severance taxes
due  to  lower  taxable United States wellhead  volumes  and
prices.

    Other income, net increased $39 million due primarily to
gains  on sales of oil and gas properties as the exploration
and  production  segment continued  its  strategy  of  fully
utilizing   assets  through  selected  property   sales   in
optimizing   profitability,  cash  flows   and   return   on
investments.

INTERNATIONAL GAS AND POWER SERVICES

    The  international segment's IBIT increased $12  million
during the 1994 Period as compared to the 1993 Period.   The
following discussion analyzes the significant changes in the
segment's results.

REVENUES

     Revenues   for  the  international  segment   decreased
primarily  due  to  the  transfer of the  international  gas
liquids  marketing operations to gas services in the  second
quarter  of  1994.   The  decline was  partially  offset  by
revenues  from the promotion on the sale of certain  liquids
processing facilities at Teesside, as well as revenues  from
liquids processing activities.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

     The  cost  of  gas  and  other  products  sold  by  the
international segment decreased primarily as a result of the
transfer  of  liquids marketing operations discussed  above,
partially  offset  by product costs incurred  in  connection
with liquids processing activities.

 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued)
                ENRON CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES



    Operating expenses increased $10 million during the 1994
Period  as compared to the 1993 Period primarily as a result
of increased international activities.  Depreciation expense
increased $5 million as a result of increased investment  in
certain international natural gas liquids assets.  Operating
income  of  the  international  segment  remained  virtually
unchanged  during the 1994 Period as compared  to  the  1993
period.

OTHER INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS

     Equity   in  earnings  of  unconsolidated  subsidiaries
increased $4 million primarily reflecting earnings from  two
Philippine  power plants which began operation in  mid  1993
and  early  1994,  combined  with  increased  earnings  from
Teesside  and  the Argentine pipeline, offset  by  decreased
earnings   from  the  Venezuelan  manufacturing  operations.
Other  income,  net increased $10 million due  primarily  to
foreign  exchange gains realized by Enron Americas partially
offset   by   decreased  other  income  from  the  Argentina
pipeline.

CORPORATE AND OTHER

    The  corporate  and other segment's IBIT  increased  $42
million in the first nine months of 1994 as compared to  the
first  nine  months of 1993.  The increase  reflects  a  $15
million gain from the formation of the EOTT Partnership  and
general  and  administrative expense  reductions,  including
benefits  related  to  the renegotiation  of  certain  lease
obligations.

INTEREST AND RELATED CHARGES, NET

    Interest  and related charges, shown net of  capitalized
interest, decreased from approximately $222 million  in  the
1993  Period  to  $202  million in  the  1994  Period.   The
decrease  in  interest is primarily due  to  lower  interest
rates.

DIVIDENDS ON PREFERRED STOCK OF SUBSIDIARY COMPANY

    Dividends  on preferred stock of subsidiary company  are
related  to  the  issuance of 8.55 million shares  of  Enron
Capital  L.L.C.  8%  Cumulative  Guaranteed  Monthly  Income
Preferred  Shares  in November 1993 and the  issuance  of  3
million  shares  by  Enron Capital  Resources,  L.P.  of  9%
Cumulative Preferred Securities, Series A in August 1994.

INCOME TAXES

   Income taxes increased during the 1994 Period as compared
to the 1993 Period primarily as a result of increased pretax
income and a decrease in tight gas sand Federal tax credits.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

    Cash  used in operating activities totaled approximately
$30 million during the first nine months of 1994 as compared
to $236 million of cash provided during the same period last
year.   The  increase  in cash used in operating  activities
primarily reflects increased working capital requirements.

    Cash  used in investing activities totaled $623  million
during  the  first nine months of 1994 as compared  to  $644
million  during  the  same  period  in  1993.   The   change
primarily  reflects increased proceeds from sales of  assets
and lower capital expenditures, offset by higher investments
in   and  advances  to  unconsolidated  subsidiaries.    The
increase  in  capital expenditures during  the  1994  Period
primarily reflects increased expenditures by the exploration
and production segment for development activities associated
with  operations  outside the United States and  exploration
expenditures  incurred primarily within the  United  States.
The increase in exploration and development expenditures was
partially  offset  by  lower  capital  expenditures  in  the
International segment.

     The   amount   of  investments  in  and   advances   to
unconsolidated  subsidiaries during 1994 primarily  reflects
investments in and advances to Citrus Corp. (50%  owned)  in
connection with FGT's Phase III project, investments in  the
50%  owned  Joint  Energy  Development  Investments  Limited
Partnership,  as  well as advances made in  connection  with
various international power and pipeline projects.  The 1993
amount  primarily  reflects investments made  in  connection
with the Teesside power project and the Argentina pipeline.

    Proceeds  from  sales  of assets during  1994  primarily
reflect  sales  of  oil  and  gas  properties  and  proceeds
received  in  connection  with the  formation  of  the  EOTT
Partnership.  The 1993 amount reflects proceeds  from  sales
of oil and gas properties and information technology assets.

    Cash  provided  by  financing  activities  totaled  $713
million during the first nine months of 1994 as compared  to
$404  million  during the same period in 1993.   During  the
first nine months of 1994, net issuances of short- and long-
term  debt totaled $756 million.  Net proceeds from the sale
of  preferred  securities by Enron Capital  Resources,  L.P.
during August 1994 totaled $73 million.  Proceeds from these
issuances  were  used primarily to fund  capital  and  other
expenditures and to meet working capital requirements.

    Enron  is  able  to  fund  its  normal  working  capital
requirements  mainly through operations or, when  necessary,
through the utilization of credit facilities and its ability
to sell commercial paper and accounts receivable.

    Total  capitalization at September 30,  1994  was  $6.78
billion.   Debt as a percentage of total capitalization  was
50.4% at September 30, 1994 as compared to 46.7% at year-end
1993.   The  increase from year-end primarily  reflects  the
increase in debt levels as discussed above.
