                       AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO
                   STATEMENT ON SCHEDULE 13D

Preliminary Statement:

     This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements Amendment No. 1
to the Statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission by Kinder Morgan (Delaware), Inc., a Delaware
corporation and formerly Kinder Morgan, Inc. (the "Reporting
Person"), on February 14, 1997 ("Amendment No. 1"), relating to
the common units of limited partnership interest (the "Common
Units") of Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P., a Delaware
limited partnership ("Issuer") in which the Reporting Person has
an indirect beneficial ownership interest through Kinder Morgan
G.P., Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Reporting Person ("KMGP").  The principal terms used but
not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in
Amendment No. 1.

     Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 2
does not modify any of the information previously reported on
Amendment No. 1.  This Amendment No. 2 speaks as of its date and
no inference should be drawn that no change has occurred in the
facts set forth herein after the date hereof.

Item 1.  Security and Issuer.

     Item 1 is hereby amended and supplemented by replacing the
current paragraph with the following:

          This Statement on Schedule 13D relates to the Common
     Units of Limited  Partnership Interest ("Common Units") of
     Kinder Morgan Energy Partners,  L.P., a Delaware limited
     partnership (the "Issuer"), whose  principal  executive
     office is located at 1301 McKinney,  Suite  3400, Houston,
     Texas 77010.

Item 2.  Identity and Background.

     Item 2 is hereby amended and supplemented by replacing the
current paragraphs with the following:

          This Statement is filed by Kinder Morgan (Delaware),
     Inc., a Delaware corporation and formerly Kinder Morgan,
     Inc. (the "Reporting Person").  The Reporting Person owns
     all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of KMGP,
     which is the sole general partner of the Issuer.  The
     Reporting Person is thereby the indirect beneficial owner of
     the 862,000 Common Units owned by KMGP.  KMGP will file a
     separate Amendment No. 2 to its Statement on Schedule 13D
     indicating that it has ceased being the beneficial owner of
     five percent (5%) of such Common Units as of March 6, 1998.

          The address of the principal business office of the
     Reporting Person is 1301 McKinney, Suite 3400, Houston,
     Texas 77010.

          Information relating to the directors and executive
     officers of the Reporting Person is contained in Appendix A
     attached hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

          None of the Reporting Person or, to the undersigned's
     knowledge, any person listed on Appendix A hereto, has been
     during the last five years (a) convicted of any criminal
     proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
     misdemeanors) or (b) a party to a civil proceeding of a
     judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction
     and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a
     judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations
     of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
     United States federal or state securities laws or finding
     any violations with respect to such laws.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

     No change.

Item 4.  Purpose of the Transaction.

     Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by replacing the
current paragraphs with the following:

          The Reporting Person holds Common Units as
     reported herein for the purposes of investment.  The
     Reporting Person has no present plan or proposal with
     respect to any action that would relate to or result in
     the occurrence of any of the matters enumerated under
     Item 4 of Schedule 13D.  The Reporting Person reserves
     the right to formulate specific plans or proposals with
     respect to, or to change their intentions regarding,
     any or all of the foregoing.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

     Item 5 is hereby amended and supplemented by replacing the
current paragraphs with the following:

          (a)  As set forth herein, the Reporting Person has
     indirect beneficial ownership through KMGP of 862,000
     Common Units, which represent approximately 1.5% of the
     outstanding Common Units, based upon (i) the number of
     Common Units outstanding as of November 8, 1999, as
     reported on the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
     for the quarterly period ended September 30, 1999, and
     (ii) the additional 9,810,000 Common Units issued as
     part of a private transaction recently completed by the
     Issuer. The directors and executive officers of the
     Reporting Person disclaim any beneficial ownership of
     the Common Units owned by KMGP.

          (b)  KMGP has sole voting and sole dispositive
     power over the 862,000 Common Units that it owns.
     Neither the Reporting Person, the directors, nor the
     executive officers of the Reporting Person individually
     have the power to vote or direct the vote of, or
     dispose of direct the disposition of, Common Units
     owned by KMGP, or to dispose or direct the disposition
     of, or receive or direct the receipt of,

<PAGE> 5

     dividends with respect to such Common Units deemed to be
     beneficially owned by KMGP.  As the sole stockholder of KMGP,
     the Reporting Person has the power to elect the Board of
     Directors of KMGP, however, all decisions regarding
     Common Units owned by KMGP are within the exclusive
     authority of the Board of Directors of KMGP.

          (c)  The Reporting Person has not effected any
     transactions in the past 60 days involving Common
     Units.

          (d)  Neither the Reporting Person, the directors,
     nor the executive officers of the Reporting Person have
     the power to dispose or direct the disposition of, or
     receive or direct the receipt of, dividends with
     respect to Common Units deemed to be beneficially owned
     by KMGP.

          (e)  On March 6, 1998, Kinder Morgan Operating
     L.P. "D" ("OLP-D"), a limited partnership wholly-owned
     by the Issuer, acquired 99% of SFPP, L.P., the
     operating  partnership of Santa Fe Pacific Pipeline
     Partners, L.P. ("Santa Fe").  SFPP, L.P. owned
     substantially all of Santa Fe's assets and conducted
     all of its business activities.  The Issuer acquired
     the interest of Santa Fe's common unit  holders in
     SFPP,  L.P. in exchange  for 26.6 million newly-issued
     Common Units (the "Santa Fe Transaction").

          The additional issuance of Common Units as part of
     the Santa Fe Transaction resulted in a dilution of the
     KMGP's ownership interest in the Issuer.  Consequently,
     the Reporting Person ceased to be the indirect
     beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of the
     Common Units on March 6, 1998.

Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships
with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

     No change.

Item 7.   Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

     None.
