I removed the opening declaration that Sonat was involved in "Electric exploration and production," while modifying it to say Sonat was involved in natural gas transmission, and in natural gas and oil E&P. (Perhaps offshore drilling should be first mentioned here as well.) Sonat was certainly not involved in Electric E&P, a nonsensical term, but may have been in the electricity wheeling business. To my knowledge this was not a major segment, but knowledgeable people are urged to put "Electric" back into the main article in a proper context. Searching the history of this page reveals that "Electric" was in from the start, with verbiage apparently taken from some financial industry documents.
