IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING EOG RESOURCES, INC. SAVINGS PLAN
BLACKOUT PERIOD AND YOUR RIGHTS TO TRADE EOG RESOURCES, INC.
                COMMON STOCK DURING BLACKOUT

                        JULY 28, 2003

To:   All EOG Resources, Inc. Directors and Executive Officers

From: Barry Hunsaker, Senior Vice President & General Counsel

The purpose of this notice is to inform you that the EOG
Resources, Inc. Savings Plan (the "Savings Plan") will be
entering a blackout period due to a change in investment
options under the Savings Plan.  The Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) recently published final rules under the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-24) which apply to
401(k) plan blackout periods that begin on or after January
26, 2003. Because you are a director or executive officer of
EOG Resources, Inc., please be aware that the blackout of
the Savings Plan has a direct impact on your ability to
trade EOG Resources, Inc. Common Stock.

The new rules provide that, during the blackout period,
corporate insiders may no longer exercise stock options or
trade certain employer securities held outside of the
Savings Plan.  Specifically, the insider trading provision
prohibits corporate insiders from directly or indirectly
purchasing, selling, acquiring or transferring any equity or
derivative security of a publicly traded company that they
acquired in connection with service or employment as a
director or executive officer of that company. Equities
acquired in connection with the individual's service as a
director or officer are subject to the restriction,
including securities acquired before the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
was passed or before the company went public.  The
restriction does not apply to securities of the Company
which were not acquired in connection with your service as a
director or officer.  However, you should note that there is
a rebuttable presumption that any securities sold during a
blackout period are not exempt from the rule (i.e., the
individual corporate insider bears the burden of proving
that the securities were not "acquired in connection with
service or employment").

The SEC's rules provide a limited number of exemptions from
the trading restriction.  If you would like more information
regarding these exemptions, please contact me at (713) 651-
6940.

Key Dates:
Savings Plan Blackout Period Begins: August 27, 2003
Savings Plan Blackout Period Ends:   September 3, 2003

Violations of the insider trading prohibition will allow an
issuer or a security holder acting on behalf of an issuer to
bring an action to recover the profits realized by the
director or executive officer. In addition, the SEC may
bring an action, including civil injunction proceedings,
cease-and-desist actions, civil penalties and all other
remedies available to the SEC under the Exchange Act,
including, in some cases, criminal penalties.

Please be aware that on July 25, 2003, all current Savings
Plan participants and affected parties were informed of the
blackout via corporate email or first class mail.  A copy of
the blackout notice provided to Savings Plan participants
and affected parties is attached.

While we anticipate a smooth transition, you will be
notified in the unlikely event that an extension of the
blackout is needed.  Please direct any questions regarding
this notice to Pat Edwards, 333 Clay Street, Suite 4200,
P.O. Box 4362, Houston, TX  77210-4362, (713) 651-6818.


IMPORTANT NOTICE CONCERNING YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THE
 EOG RESOURCES, INC. SAVINGS PLAN

                        JULY 25, 2003


     This notice is to inform you that the EOG Resources,
Inc. Savings Plan (the "Savings Plan") will be changing some
investment options.

     As a result of these changes, you temporarily will be
unable to direct or diversify investments in your individual
accounts or to obtain a loan or distribution from the
Savings Plan.  This temporary period, during which you will
be unable to exercise these rights otherwise available under
the Savings Plan, is called a "blackout period."  Whether or
not you are planning retirement in the near future, we
encourage you to carefully consider how this blackout period
may affect your retirement planning, as well as your overall
financial plan.

     The blackout period for the Savings Plan is expected to
begin on August 27, 2003 and end on September 3, 2003.
During this period, you can determine whether the blackout
period has started or ended by accessing the Savings Plan
website at https://www.pfpc-invest.com/retirement_solution
or by calling the Retirement Plan Customer Service Help Line
at 1-888-401K123.

     During the blackout period you will be unable to direct
or diversify the assets held in your Savings Plan account.
For this reason, it is very important that you review and
consider the appropriateness of your current investments in
light of your inability to direct or diversify those
investments during the blackout period.  For your long-term
retirement security, you should give careful consideration
to the importance of a well-balanced and diversified
investment portfolio, taking into account all your assets,
income and investments.  You should be aware that there is a
risk to holding substantial portions of your assets in the
securities of any one company, as individual securities tend
to have wider price swings, up and down, in short periods of
time, than investments in diversified funds.  Stocks that
have wide price swings might have a large loss during the
blackout period, and you would not be able to direct the
sale of such stocks from your account during the blackout
period.  If you wish to change your investments under the
Savings Plan prior to the commencement of the blackout
period, you should have your changes effected before 3:00
p.m. CST on August 26, 2003.  After this time, you will not
be able to direct an investment election change until 8:00
a.m. CST on September 4, 2003.

     If you have any questions concerning this notice, you
should contact Julie Clay, 333 Clay Street, Suite 4200, P.O.
Box 4362, Houston, TX  77210-4362, (713) 651-6960.
