To the shareholders of CENTRAGAS - Transportadora de Gas de la Regi<o'>n
Central de Enron Development & C<i'>a., S.C.A.:


We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of CENTRAGAS - TRANSPORTADORA DE
GAS  DE  LA  REGION  CENTRAL DE ENRON DEVELOPMENT & CIA., S.C.A. (a development
stage enterprise) as of  December  31, 1995 and 1994, the related statements of
income for the year ended December 31,  1995,  and  the  related  statements of
changes in shareholders' equity, changes in financial position and  cash  flows
for  the  year  ended  December 31, 1995 and for the period from March 24, 1994
(date of inception) through  December 31, 1994.  These financial statements are
the  responsibility of the Company's  management.   Our  responsibility  is  to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
in Colombia, which are in substantial agreement with those in the United States
of America.   Those  standards  require  that  we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial  statements are free of
material misstatements.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.   An  audit
also   includes  assessing  the  accounting  principles  used  and  significant
estimates  made  by  management,  as  well  as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our  audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred  to  above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of CENTRAGAS  - Transportadora de
Gas  de  la  Regi<o'>n  Central  de  Enron  Development  &  C<i'>a., S.C.A.  (a
development stage enterprise) as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results
of  its  operations,  the changes in shareholders' equity, the changes  in  its
financial position and  its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1995 and
for the period from March  24,  1994  (date  of inception) through December 31,
1994, in conformity with accounting principles  generally  accepted in Colombia
applied on a consistent basis (See Note 2).

        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994



1.    COMPANY OPERATIONS

CENTRAGAS - Transportadora de Gas de la Regi<o'>n  Central de Enron Development
& C<i'>a., S.C.A. ("CENTRAGAS" or the "Company") was  incorporated on March 24,
1994, under the laws of the Republic of Colombia.  On September  12,  1994  the
Company   changed  its  legal  structure  from  a  simple  limited  partnership
("sociedad  en comandita simple") to a limited partnership by shares ("sociedad
en comandita por acciones").

The Company's  objective  is  to  develop,  build  and  operate a 578 kilometer
pipeline from Ballena, on the northern coast of Colombia,  to  Barrancabermeja,
in   the  central  region  of  the  country,  under  the  terms  of  a  15-year
Transportation  Services  Contract  with  Empresa  Colombiana  de  Petr<o'>leos
("Ecopetrol"),  the  Colombian  state-owned  oil  company.   Pursuant  to  this
contract,  the  Company is obligated to build, operate, maintain and ultimately
transfer the pipeline  to  Ecopetrol.  The total estimated construction cost of
the pipeline is US$217 million.

On September 10, 1995, the Company  received  approval  from  Ecopetrol  of the
"transportation  initiation  date"  for  the  first 237 kilometer sector of the
pipeline from Ballena to Valledupar.  Starting  from  that  date the Company is
receiving  partial  payments  from Ecopetrol of the transportation  tariffs  as
stated in the Transportation Services Contract.

On February 24, 1996, the Company  obtained  official  approval  of  the  final
transportation  initiation  date.  Starting from that date, the Company has the
right to receive full tariff  payments as stated in the Transportation Services
Contract.

For  the construction of the pipeline,  the  Company  signed  a  US$77  million
contract  with Techint International Construction Corporation ("Tenco") on June
11, 1994.

On  July  7,  1994,  the  Company  signed  two  contracts  with  Promigas  S.A.
("Promigas").   The  first  contract  is  for  the  inspection  of the pipeline
construction  by  Tenco and the second is for the operation and maintenance  of
the pipeline.


2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

EXPLANATION ADDED FOR TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH

These financial statements  and  notes  to financial statements were translated
into English from statements originally issued  in  Spanish.   All  amounts are
stated  in  thousands of Colombian pesos ("Col$") unless otherwise noted.   The
statements  are  presented  on  the  basis  of  generally  accepted  accounting
principles in Colombia.  Certain accounting principles applied by the Company
that conform  with generally accepted accounting principles in Colombia may not
conform with generally accepted accounting principles in other countries.

The principal accounting  policies  used  in the preparation of these financial
statements are the following:

INVESTMENTS

Carried at cost, which does not exceed market value.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Carried at cost adjusted for inflation.  All costs involved in the construction
of the pipeline, including right-of-way payments,  engineering costs, inflation
adjustments and net financing and pre-operating costs  are  capitalized  during
the  construction  period  until the asset is substantially completed and ready
for use.  Depreciation of the  pipeline  is  calculated under the straight-line
method  over  an  estimated useful life of 15 years  (in  accordance  with  the
duration of the Transportation  Services  Contract with Ecopetrol).  At the end
of the 15-year period, Ecopetrol has the option  to  purchase  the  asset for a
nominal amount.

Depreciation  of  furniture  and fixtures is calculated under the straight-line
method over an estimated useful life of ten years.

TRANSACTIONS IN FOREIGN CURRENCIES

Monetary  assets  and  liabilities   denominated   in  foreign  currencies  are
translated into Colombian pesos at the exchange rate  in  effect  at period end
(Col$987.65 per US$1 on December 31, 1995, and Col$831.27 per US$1  on December
31,  1994).   Foreign  exchange losses generated by liabilities denominated  in
foreign currencies obtained  to finance the cost of construction in process are
capitalized until the asset is  in  condition  to  be  used,  as  determined by
official approval from Ecopetrol.  All other foreign exchange gains  and losses
are included in results of operations.

INCOME TAXES

The  provision for Colombian income taxes is based on book income, in order  to
properly match income for the period with the related costs and expenses.

The tax  consequences of timing differences which imply the payment of a higher
or lower current income tax are based on tax rates currently in effect, and are
recorded as  deferred  income tax assets or liabilities and will be reversed to
operations when the related timing differences reverse.

INFLATION ADJUSTMENTS

The historical costs of  property,  plant and equipment, equity, and other non-
monetary items, as well as the revenues  and  expenses in the income statement,
are adjusted for the inflation of the year.  These  adjustments  are calculated
using   the  inflation  rate  as  determined  by  the  National  Administrative
Department  of  Statistics  ("DANE").  The inflation rate published by the DANE
was 20.28% for 1995 and 12.73%  for  the  period  from  April  1,  1994 through
December 31, 1994.

Gains  and  losses  from  monetary corrections thus determined are included  in
results  of  operations.  However,  the  inflation  adjustment  of  capitalized
construction costs  is recorded as a deferred monetary correction credit during
the pre-operating period.   When  the asset is placed in service, this deferred
credit is amortized to income using  the  same  method  and useful life used to
calculate depreciation of the capitalized costs.  During  the  period  in which
the  inflation  adjustment on the capitalized construction cost is deferred,  a
proportional share of the inflation adjustment on equity will also be deferred.
That adjustment is  recorded  as a deferred monetary correction charge and will
be amortized over the useful life of the related assets.

The inflation adjusted amounts  of  the  non-monetary  assets do not purport to
reflect current market values or replacement values.  The  Colombian  inflation
accounting rules do not alter the asset valuation criteria of the lower of cost
or net realizable value.  Amounts in the financial statements of the prior year
are not restated in terms of the purchasing power of the currency at the  close
of the current year.

</TABLE>

9.    INCOME TAXES

The  Company is subject to income taxes equivalent to 30%  of  taxable  income.
For taxable  years  from  1994  to  1995  the  Company is also subject to a 25%
surcharge which is computed on the net income tax  determined  for each taxable
year.  This results in a combined statutory rate of 37.5%.  This  surcharge  is
itself  deductible  for  income tax purposes in the year it is completely paid.
Starting in 1996 the income  tax  rate  will be 35%.  Income taxes are computed
taking into account the tax effects of inflation adjustments.

During  1995  and  1994  the Company did not  compute  income  taxes  based  on
presumptive  minimum  taxable   income  because  it  was  a  Development  Stage
Enterprise for tax purposes, as defined  by Colombian tax rules.  The effective
income tax rate for 1995 differs from the 37.5% statutory rate due to permanent
differences  between  book  profits and taxable  income.   The  main  permanent
difference is the "theoretical deduction" established in the tax code to reduce
the tax effects of the application of taxable inflation adjustments.


10.   NOTES PAYABLE

In  order to obtain funds to finance  the  construction  of  the  pipeline,  on
December  16,  1994, the Company issued notes amounting to US$172 million.  The
notes are secured  by  the pipeline and related assets.  The notes will be paid
in equal quarterly installments  starting  June  1,  1998,  through December 1,
2010.   Interest  on  the  notes will be payable quarterly in arrears  starting
March 1, 1995, at a 10.65% annual interest rate.

Interest payable on these notes amounts to US$1,473,482 as of December 31, 1995
(US$763,250 as of December 31, 1994).

Pursuant to the issuance of  the  notes,  the  Company  executed  an  Indenture
Contract  with  The  Bank of New York (Trustee for the funds from the issuance)
which establishes that  the  Company  is subject to various covenants covering,
among  others,  the  Company's  legal  structure,   information   requirements,
insurance coverage and debt service coverage ratios.

On  December  1,  1995, the Company made a prepayment of the principal  of  the
notes amounting to  US$5,973,855.   This  prepayment  was  made  to comply with
certain special clauses stated in the Indenture Contract signed with  The  Bank
of New York and related to the terms of payment of the notes.


11.   SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

As  of  December  31, 1995, the common shares of the Company are represented by
50,000,000,000 common  shares  with  a  par  value of Col$1 per share, of which
5,965,641,507 common shares are authorized, issued and paid.

In  December  1995,  some  of  the shareholders agreed to sell their shares  in
Centragas to Tomen Corp. and to  Promigas based on subscribed capital.  In 1996
when this operation has been completed, Tomen and Promigas will each own 25% of
the subscribed and paid capital of Centragas.

Under the terms of the Transportation  Services  Contract  with  Ecopetrol, the
General Partner (the Colombia branch of Enron Development Corp.) must  maintain
its participation of 1% in the total equity of the Company.

An  agreement  signed between the Company and The Bank of New York obliges  the
shareholders  to   make  any  additional  contributions  required  to  pay  any
additional costs incurred in the construction of the pipeline.

Until such time as the  Company  is  dissolved  or  otherwise terminated, Enron
Development  Corp.  shall be the General Partner and, as  such,  undertakes  to
administer and represent  the Company directly or through one or more delegates
appointed under its exclusive  responsibility and according to the terms of the
By-laws,  and  shall have joint and  unlimited  liability,  together  with  the
Company, for the  operations  of  the Company.  The General Partner may acquire
and sell shares without losing its capacity as General Partner.  In addition to
the  General  Partner, the Company has  limited  liability  shareholders  whose
liability for the  obligations  of  the  Company is limited to the sum of their
respective shareholdings.

The Colombian tax rate on dividends paid to  non-resident  foreigners  is 8% in
1995 and 7% in 1996 and subsequent years.

Companies  are required to appropriate at least 10% of net income to the  legal
reserve until such reserve amounts to at least 50% of subscribed capital.  This
reserve cannot be distributed as dividends but can be used to absorb losses.

The equity revaluation,  which results from the inflation adjustment of equity,
cannot be distributed as dividends,  although  it  can  be  capitalized free of
taxes.

</TABLE>


13.   MEMORANDUM ACCOUNTS

As  of December 31, 1995 and 1994 memorandum accounts correspond mainly to  the
estimated value of the Company's pending contractual obligations as established
by  the   contracts   signed   with   Promigas,  Ecopetrol,  Tenco,  and  Enron
International Development Services, Inc.,  in  relation  to the construction of
the  pipeline.   Additionally,  in  1994  these  accounts  included  the  funds
deposited  by  Ecopetrol  in  an  emergency  account,  as  established  in  the
Transportation  Services  Contract  signed between Ecopetrol and  the  Company.
These funds can only be used by the Company  to  cover  certain  future events,
called "non-insurable excusable events."


14.   INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

The  interim  financial statements as of March 31, 1996, have been prepared  by
the Company's management  without audit.  Such financial statements reflect all
adjustments (consisting only  of  normal  recurring  entries) which are, in the
opinion  of  management,  necessary for a fair presentation  of  the  financial
position, results of operations,  changes  in  shareholders' equity, changes in
working capital and cash flows at and for such interim  period.  Interim period
results are not necessarily indicative of the results to  be  achieved  for  an
entire year.

The  preparation  of financial statements requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that  affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent  assets  and  liabilities at the date of the financial
statements  and  the  reported  amounts of revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from the estimates.

Pursuant to agreements signed in  1995,  during the first quarter of 1996 Enron
Pipeline Colombia Limited Partnership sold  shares  representing a 25% interest
in Centragas to Tomen Corp. and Enron Colombia Investments  Limited Partnership
sold shares representing a 25% interest in Centragas to Promigas.   During  May
of  1996,  Enron  Corp.  ("Enron")  sold its remaining 50% indirect interest in
Centragas to Enron Global Power & Pipelines L.L.C. ("EPP"). In July 1996, Enron
received notice from Ecopetrol consenting  to  Enron's  transfer of its general
partnership  interest  to EPP or a designated subsidiary of  EPP.   Once  these
transactions are consummated,  Centragas will be owned, directly or indirectly,
by EPP (50%), Promigas (25%) and Tomen Corp. (25%).

The exchange rate in effect at March 31, 1996, was Col$1,048 per US$1.

Supplemental cash flow information:

During the quarter ended March 31,  1996,  cash paid for interest was 4,289,694
and no cash was paid for income taxes.


15.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN  COLOMBIAN  AND  UNITED  STATES
     GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (GAAP)

The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been prepared in accordance with
Colombian GAAP which differs in certain respects  from  those applicable in the
United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

The differences have been reflected in the financial information provided below
and principally relate to the following items:

(a)ADJUSTMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR INFLATION:

As  further  discussed  in  Note  2, Colombian GAAP requires that  non-monetary
asset, liability and equity accounts  and  all  income  statement  accounts  be
adjusted for the current year impacts of inflation.

This  adjustment affects current year financial statement amounts only and does
not affect  prior  period  financial  statement  balances.  U.S. GAAP generally
requires the use of the historical cost basis of accounting  and does not allow
the recognition of the effects of inflation on financial statement balances.

(b)   FUNCTIONAL CURRENCY:

The  functional  currency  of the Company is the U.S. dollar.  These  Colombian
GAAP financial statements have  been  prepared  using  the  Colombian Peso.  To
appropriately  state the results of the Company in U.S. Dollars  in  accordance
with U.S. GAAP,  the  balances  and  transactions  of  the  Company  have  been
remeasured  in  accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
52 - "Foreign Currency  Translation"  (SFAS  No.  52).   In connection with the
remeasurement process, all transaction gains and losses in  the  Colombian Peso
financial statements resulting from transactions denominated in the U.S. Dollar
have been eliminated.

(c)   CAPITALIZATION OF INTEREST DURING CONSTRUCTION:

Colombian  GAAP  allows  for the capitalization of all interest costs  incurred
during the development stage  of  an  entity.   Under  U.S.  GAAP, Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  34  - "Capitalization of Interest  Cost"
allows for the capitalization of interest cost  on expenditures made during the
construction phase of an asset on a theoretical avoided cost basis.

(d)   DEFERRED TAXES:

Colombian GAAP requires the use of the deferred method  to account for deferred
taxes.   U.S.  GAAP  requires  the use of the asset and liability  approach  to
account for deferred taxes.  Under U.S. GAAP, Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109 - "Accounting  for  Income  Taxes" requires that deferred tax
assets  and  liabilities  are  recognized  based  on   anticipated  future  tax
consequences attributable to differences between financial  statement  carrying
amounts  of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.  The primary
difference  between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities relates to
the capitalization  for  Colombian  tax  purposes  of  all  interest  costs  as
discussed above.

(e)RECONCILIATION OF NET INCOME AND SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY TO U.S. GAAP:

The following is a summary of the significant adjustments to net income for the
year  ended December 31, 1995, and the three months ended March 31, 1996 and to
shareholders'  equity  as  of December 31, 1994, 1995 and March 31, 1996, which
would be required if U.S. GAAP  had  been  applied instead of Colombian GAAP in
the accompanying financial statements.  Had  U.S.  GAAP been applied to the net
income  for  1994, the results would not have materially  differed  from  those
under Colombian GAAP.

                     Enron Global Power & Pipelines L.L.C.

             Notes to Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements


On May 9, 1996 Enron Global Power & Pipelines  L.L.C.  (EPP) purchased (a) 100%
of the common stock of Enron Commercial Finance, Ltd. (ECFL)  and (b) the right
to later acquire at no cost (once certain third party consents  are obtained) a
1%  general  partnership  interest  in Centragas (as defined below) from  Enron
Corp. in exchange for 1,576,808 common  shares  of  EPP.  ECFL owns 100% of the
common  stock of Enron Colombia Transportation, Ltd. (ECTL),  a  .015%  limited
partnership  interest  in  CENTRAGAS  -  Transportadora  de Gas de la Regi<o'>n
Central  de  Enron  Development  &  C<i'>a S.C.A. (Centragas) and  99%  limited
partnership interests in Enron Pipeline  Colombia  Limited  Partnership (EPCLP)
and Enron Colombia Investments Limited Partnership (ECILP).   ECTL  owns  a  1%
general partner interest in EPCLP and ECILP.  EPCLP and ECILP own a 37.5% and a
11.485%   limited  partnership  interest  in  Centragas,  respectively.   Enron
Development  Corp.  -  Colombia  Branch currently owns a 1% general partnership
interest in Centragas.

The pro forma consolidated financial statements illustrate the effects of EPP's
acquisition of an indirect 50% equity  interest  in  Centragas  and the related
financing of the transaction.  The pro forma consolidated financial  statements
have been prepared as if the transactions had taken place on March 31,  1996 in
the case of the pro forma consolidated balance sheet, or as of January 1,  1995
in the case of the pro forma consolidated statements of income.

As  the  acquisitions were made from Enron Corp. they will be accounted for in a
manner similar to a pooling of interest.  EPP's investment will be based on the
historical investment balance  of  Enron  Corp.   The  difference  between  the
acquisition  price and the historical investment balance will be included as an
adjustment to  EPP's  equity  account.   Since  prior  period  earnings are not
material,  prior  period  opening  retained earnings will be restated  for  the
related equity in earnings.

Centragas  reached  full  commercial  operations  on  February  24,  1996,  and
accordingly, the results for the quarter  ended  March  31,  1996  will  not be
indicative of the results anticipated for future quarters or annual periods  of
operations.  Additionally, included in the results of Centragas for the quarter
ended  March 31, 1996 are equity in earnings of $1.5 million related to a bonus
for the early completion of construction of the pipeline assets.

(A)   Reflects  the  investment  in  Centragas  and  the issuance of EPP common
     shares related to the purchase of the 50% equity  interest  in  Centragas.
     The  investment  includes  EPP's proportionate share of dividends declared
     but not distributed by Centragas.

(B)   Reflects the estimated costs incurred by EPP associated with the purchase
     of the interest in Centragas.

(C)   Reflects deferred income taxes associated with a 7% Colombian withholding
     tax which will be assessed when Centragas earnings are dividended to EPP.

(D)   Reflects EPP's 50% share in the equity in earnings of Centragas.
