Item 7.01:  Regulation FD Disclosure

 

On October 13, 2005, the Registrant's President and CEO, Jim Sigmon, was interviewed by Suzy Assaad for "Bloomberg on the Markets." During the interview Mr. Sigmon was asked his opinion on many topics including: inventory data released this morning, the prospect for continued high energy prices and the impact of the high prices on demand going forward. He was also asked whether he thought the analyst estimates of a nickel a share for earnings, to be released on November 8, were about right or low. In response to that question, Mr. Sigmon indicated that the analysts are not taking into account the sale of certain assets to EnCana Oil & Gas (USA) Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of EnCana Corporation of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, during the third quarter (previously disclosed). He also indicated that "from a cash flow standpoint the Company is doing much, much better than we had thought we would do at this period of time." A video clip of the entire interview has been posted under "Media Coverage" under the "About TXCO" menu on the main page on the Registrant's web site.
