AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO SCHEDULE 13D
This Amendment No. 3 on Schedule 13D/A ("Amendment No. 3") to the Statement on
Schedule 13D ("Schedule 13D") is filed on behalf of each of (i) Shell US Gas &
Power LLC ("Shell Gas & Power") as the direct beneficial owner of Common Units
and (ii) by virtue of their respective direct holdings of securities of Shell
Gas & Power (as described below on this statement) by Shell Oil Company ("Shell
Oil"), SWEPI LP ("SWEPI"), Shell Gas Pipeline Corp. #2 ("Shell Pipeline"), and
Shell Gas Gathering Corp. #2 ("Shell Gathering") (collectively, the "Reporting
Entities"). Subsequent to Amendment No. 2 to this Schedule 13D, Shell Seahorse
Company ("Shell Seahorse") merged into Shell Pipeline, with Shell Pipeline as
the surviving entity.
This Amendment No. 3 is filed to reflect certain changes to the Unitholder
Rights Agreement, as well as the two-for-one split of the securities of the
Issuer on May 15, 2002 and the conversion of all Special Units into Common
Units.
Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized term used but not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Schedule 13D.
Item 1. Security and Issuer
An additional paragraph is added to this Item as follows:
Subsequent to Amendment No. 2 to this Schedule 13D, Shell
Seahorse Company ("Shell Seahorse") merged into Shell Pipeline, with
Shell Pipeline as the surviving entity.
Item 2. Identity and Background
Paragraph 2 in subsection (a)of this Item is deleted in its entirety
and replaced with the following:
Shell Gas & Power is the beneficial holder of approximately
19.36% of the outstanding Common Units of the Issuer. Shell Oil, SWEPI,
Shell Pipeline and Shell Gathering are the holders of 100% of the
common membership interests, and approximately 2.33%, 17.14%, 64.15%
and 16.38%, respectively, of the total ownership interests, in Shell
Gas & Power. Each of SWEPI, Shell Pipeline and Shell Gathering is an
indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Shell Oil. Together, Shell Oil,
SWEPI, Shell Pipeline and Shell Gathering may be deemed to control
Shell Gas & Power.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
No change to this Item
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
An additional paragraph is added to this Item as follows:
On September 15, 2003, both Shell Gas & Power and the Issuer
filed press releases that described the sale by Shell Gas & Power of
its 30% interest in the limited liability company that is the general
partner of the Issuer. Shell Gas & Power sold its interest to an entity
controlled by Dan L. Duncan, who now controls 100% of the membership
interests in the general partner. The Reporting Entities did not sell
any of their Common Units. The press releases are attached as exhibits
and incorporated into this Item. The Reporting Entities intend to
reduce their holdings in the Common Units on an orderly schedule over a
period of years, taking into account market conditions. The Reporting
Entities do not at this time have a schedule for, and have not made any
determination as to the timing or amounts of, any dispositions.
Page 8 of 10 pages
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Paragraphs (a) and (c) of this Item are hereby deleted in their
entirety and replaced with the following:
(a) On May 15, 2002, the Issuer effected a two-for-one split
of its securities. On August 1, 2003, all Subordinated Units and
Special Units converted into Common Units. There were 211,768,371
Common Units outstanding as of September 10, 2003. The Reporting
Entities are deemed to be the beneficial owners of 41,000,000 Common
Units. The Common Units represent 19.36% of the outstanding Common
Units, and a 18.97% equity interest in the Issuer after taking into
account the 2% equity interest held by the Issuer's general partner.
(c) Except for the conversion of all Subordinated and Special
Units into Common Units, none of the Reporting Entities, nor, to the
best of their knowledge, any person listed on Appendix A hereto, has
effected any transactions in the Common Units during the past 60 days.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with respect to
Securities of the Issuer
An additional paragraph is added to this Item as follows:
In connection with the sale of Shell's interest in the general
partner, the Unitholder Rights Agreement was amended to, among other
things, eliminate the rights of Shell Gas & Power to participate in the
policy-making functions of the Issuer and eliminate certain preemptive
rights of Shell Gas & Power. The amendment is attached as an exhibit.
In connection with the amendment, the three designees of Shell Gas &
Power who have been serving on the Board of Directors of the general
partner of the Issuer resigned on September 12, 2003.

EXHIBIT F
SHELL SELLS ITS INTEREST
IN ENTERPRISE PRODUCTS GP
HOUSTON (Sept. 15, 2003) -- Shell US Gas & Power LLC, an affiliate of
the Royal Dutch/Shell Group, announced today the sale of its 30 percent interest
in Enterprise Products GP, LLC, which is the general partner of Enterprise
Products Partners L.P. (NYSE: "EPD"). Shell sold its interest to an affiliate of
Enterprise Products Company, and as a result affiliates of that entity now own
100 percent of the general partner.
The sale is part of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group's ongoing program of
portfolio rationalization. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
In conjunction with the sale, Shell's designated directors are
resigning from the Board of Directors of Enterprise Products GP. The resigning
directors include Augustus Y. Noojin, III, President and CEO, Shell US Gas &
Power LLC; Jeri Eagan, Regional Finance Director - EP Americas, Shell Energy
Resources Company; and Jorn A. Berget, Regional Production Director - EP
Americas, Shell Energy Resources Company.
Shell and Enterprise Products Partners' operating units expect to
continue to work closely together in their joint commercial operations. Shell
and Enterprise now have joint interests in five major Gulf of Mexico pipeline
operations, and Enterprise facilities process the majority of Shell's Gulf of
Mexico natural gas production.
"Our commercial relationship with Enterprise Products Partners has been
mutually beneficial, and we will continue to explore opportunities to extend
that relationship," said Gus Noojin, Shell US Gas & Power President and CEO.
