Introduction Compact
In what is slated to become the largest U.S. IPO ever, Conoco, the nation's eighth-largest oil company, is scheduled to sell 150 million shares to the public for $20 to
$24 per share.

The deal would bring in $3 billion to $3.6 billion, topping the $2.6 billion raised in the United States by Lucent Technologies Inc. (LU - news) in 1996 that still holds
the record as the biggest American initial public offering ever.

Conoco is viewed as the least risky -- and hottest-- of the deals this week, because it has a long track record in the oil business.
