DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Antitrust Division
Notice Pursuant to the National Cooperative Research and
Production Act of 1993--Petroleum E&P Research Cooperative
(``Cooperative'')
Notice is hereby given that, on March 27, 1998, pursuant to Section
6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 1993,
15 U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (``the Act''), Petroleum E&P Research
Cooperative (``Cooperative'') has filed written notifications
simultaneously with the Attorney General and the Federal Trade
Commission disclosing changes in its project status. The notifications
were filed for the purpose of extending the Act's provisions limiting
the recovery of antitrust plaintiffs to actual damages under specified
circumstances.
The Cooperative intends to undertake the following research
projects: (1) Intelligent Well Completions--Phase I. This project
details only the Phase I of what is now envisioned as a multi-phase
project for Intelligent Well Completions and addresses the need to
identify the gaps in current technology and define the technology
needs. (2) Integrated Analysis of ``Next Generation'' Compact
Separation Technology concepts. This project is designed to identify
and to quantify the comparative advantages associated with implementing
state-of-the-art compact separation technology components into
integrated designs for the `next generation' E&P facilities.
Differential cost, size and weight considerations will be quantified.
(3) Cavity Like Completions in Weak Sands. This project seeks to
identify where/when/how deliberate sand flowback/surging/jetting can
lead to significant productivity/injectivity increases, and stabilize a
well against sand production.
No other changes have been made in either the membership or planned
activity of the group research project. Membership in this group
research project remains open, and Petroleum E&P Research Cooperative
(``Cooperative'') intends to file additional written notification
disclosing all changes in membership.
On January 16, 1997, Petroleum E&P Research Cooperative
(``Cooperative'') filed its original notification pursuant to Section
6(a) of the Act. The Department of Justice published a notice in the
Federal Register pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Act on February 13,
1997 (62 FR 6801).
The last notification was filed with the Department on August 22,

Section 6(b) of the Act on November 28, 1997 (62 FR 63389).
