                       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 G.P., Inc., a Delaware
corporation (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").  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 G.P.,
     Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Reporting Person")
     and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kinder Morgan
     (Delaware), Inc., a Delaware corporation and formerly
     Kinder Morgan, Inc. ("KM-Delaware").  The Reporting
     Person is the sole general partner of the Issuer.  KM-
     Delaware 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.

<PAGE> 4

          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
     owns 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)  The Reporting Person has sole voting and sole
     dispositive power over the 862,000 Common Units that it
     owns.  Neither the sole stockholder, the directors,

<PAGE> 5

     nor the executive officers of the Reporting Person
     individually has the power to vote or direct the vote
     of, or dispose of direct the disposition of, Common
     Units owned by the Reporting Person, or to dispose or
     direct the disposition of, or receive or direct the
     receipt of, dividends with respect to such Common Units
     deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting
     Person.

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

          (d)  No other person has the power to dispose or
     direct the disposition of, or receive or direct the
     receipt of, dividends with respect to Common Units
     owned by the Reporting Person.

          (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 Reporting
     Person's ownership interest in the Issuer.  Consequently,
     the Reporting Person ceased to be the 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
