Natural Gas

Talisman's offer is the second large takeover agreement
involving a Canadian petroleum company in the past week. Last
Monday Burlington Resources Inc. of Houston agreed to acquire
Calgary's Poco Petroleums Ltd. for US$2.5 billion, to expand into
Canada's most prolific natural-gas producing areas.

Canadian natural gas is in demand as expanded pipelines to
the U.S. market along with planned projects make it easier to
reach consumers. Demand for gas is also rising as U.S. production
falls. Prices, at a recent US$3.08 per million British thermal
units in New York, are the highest since late 1997.
''This acquisition is all about Canadian gas and North Sea
oil,'' said Jim Buckee, Talisman's chief executive.
