Unconventional Gas Has a Clear Focus on Shale Production Active in two plays: the Antrim and Barnett shales 15+ years of experience with unconventional resources Not pursuing conventional E&P Unconventional Gas Fuel Trans. & Marketing Power & Industrial

2006 Barnett Development Plan Increase production from Core and Western areas Drill 55+ wells Forecast 4.1 Bcf net production, ~500% increase over 2005 Expect 300%-400% production rate increase from Tarrant, Johnson and Jack county land Test southern acreage Drill 4 additional test wells in four distinct areas Large operators are also evaluating the southern area Expect some production from the southern acreage and a clearer picture of our potential reserves by year end 2006 Clay Zones of DTE Acreage 28,000 ac. 3,000 ac. 55,000 ac.

Gas Investment Outlook Antrim: plan to continue drilling ~100 new wells per year to replace declining wells Barnett: plan to drill 55 new wells in 2006 Currently have 5 rigs operating, plan to add 1 more by year end 2006 We continue to evaluate small acreage acquisitions Unconventional Gas Production Capital Expenditures ($ millions) 2004 2005 2006E 2007E 2008E 38 144 120 150 100 20 50 50 $38 $144 $120-140 $150-200 $100-150 2004 2005 2006E 2007E 2008E 6 4 25 40 50 5 10 15 Unconventional Gas Production Operating Earnings* ($ millions) $4 $6 $50-65 * Reconciliation to GAAP reported earnings included in the appendix; the earnings projection is as of an April 6, 2006 presentation filed with the SEC by Form 8-K on that day, and is not being updated as of the time of this presentation Drivers of earnings are market prices and production volumes As we develop reserves, we expect to hedge a significant portion of our production Valuations based on reserves, not operating earnings, are the best measure of this business' underlying value Unconventional Gas Fuel Trans. & Marketing Power & Industrial

While Earnings Growth Will Be Significant, Reserves Represent the True Value Antrim Reserve Valuation Less: Allocated debt 0.50-1.00 2.50-3.00 35 338 Probable Proved Valuation Comparable ($/mcf) Reserves (Bcfe) Component ~$420-620 Current Valuation ($ millions) Less: Cost of Legacy Hedges Based on $5 market to hedge price differential (150) (280) $850-1,050 Current Per share valuation of ~$2.35-3.50 Barnett Reserve Valuation Less: Allocated debt 1.50-2.50* 1.50-3.00 120 59 Probable* Proved Valuation Comparable ($/mcf) Reserves (Bcfe) Component ~$210-420 Current Valuation ($ millions) (60) $270-480 Current Per share valuation of ~$1.20-2.40 Substantial value has already been created in this business unit Does not assign any value to our sizable southern acreage * In northern and western counties, where reserves are well understood Unconventional Gas Fuel Trans. & Marketing Power & Industrial

Unconventional Gas Has a Lower Risk Profile Conventional E&P risk includes the exploration risk of finding the reservoir The location of unconventional formations are typically well known and can exist over a large area, reducing the exploration risk Unconventional formations act as source, reservoir and seal After a test well phase to prove the economic viability of a given area, unconventional resources can be developed on a large scale Gas "manufacturing" Unconventional Conventional Unconventional Gas Fuel Trans. & Marketing Power & Industrial

The Barnett Shale Is Becoming a World Class Gas Reservoir Historic Core Area 1,120 square miles 15 Tcf undiscovered resource (USGS '04) Currently Producing 900 MMcfd The Core Area has been expanding to the west and south as production volumes increase The Barnett is a thick, continuous, highly organic shale that covers approximately 10,000 square miles of the Fort Worth Basin During the first 20 years of its development the industry believed the Barnett Shale play was limited to the area shown here as the Historic Core Area The development of horizontal well technology and high gas prices have expanded the extent of the play by several orders of magnitude Dallas/Ft Worth Metropolitan Area Barnett Expansion Area Could be an additional 3,000 to 7,000 square miles The industry is still defining productive limits Current production from expansion areas 300 MMcfd Unconventional Gas Fuel Trans. & Marketing Power & Industrial

Horizontal Well Technology Has Driven Activity in the Barnett Expansion Area Some areas, such as Jack County, are still well-suited for vertical wells Completion of Barnett wells requires large hydraulic fracture stimulations to crack the rock Holding the stimulation in the Barnett is key to production performance Must adequately crack the shale Horizontal wells have opened a potentially large expansion area Current challenge is to keep horizontal wellbore away from faults that connect to Ellenberger (water bearing formation) Core Area Expansion Area Depth: 5,000' 8,000' Unconventional Gas Fuel Trans. & Marketing Power & Industrial

DTE Energy has Diversified Its Risk Reward Profile in the Barnett Shale Maximum value creation in E&P is derived by taking raw acreage and turning it to reserves Takes time and capital to move any given project up the value curve DTE Energy's core and western assets provide near- term cash flow DTE Energy's southern acreage provides significant development scale, if proven ILLUSTRATIVE Entry Cost Area Maturity or Cumulative CAPEX (time) Risk Low High High Low Test Wells 2nd Phase of Testing Project Development Production Optimization Infill Drilling Harvest West and Core Area Southern Acreage THE E&P "VALUE CURVE" Land Acquisition Unconventional Gas Fuel Trans. & Marketing Power & Industrial
