Dear Fellow Shareholder:

We have previously sent you proxy material for the Special Meeting of Union
Pacific Resources Group to be held on July 13, 2000, at which you are being
asked to vote upon a proposal to approve the merger agreement with Anadarko
Petroleum Corporation. YOUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDED THAT
SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE MERGER WITH ANADARKO.

Since approval of the merger requires an affirmative vote by holders of a
majority of the outstanding stock, not voting will have the same effect as a
vote against the merger. YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT, no matter how many or how few
shares you may own. PLEASE VOTE YOUR PROXY TODAY BY TELEPHONE, VIA THE INTERNET,
OR BY SIGNING AND RETURNING THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD.

Very truly yours,

/s/ GEORGE LINDAHL III

George Lindahl III
Chairman, President and
   Chief Executive Officer
