1Through 2002, natural gas operations are included in the "Petroleum" line of business.  Beginning in 2003, downstream natural gas operations are included in their own line of business. R=Revised.  NA=Not available.  W=Value withheld to avoid disclosure of individual company data.   2"Downstream Natural Gas" is a line of business that begins with the procurement of natural gas, processes and gathers natural gas, produces natural gas liquids, imports liquefied natural gas, markets and trades natural gas and natural gas liquids, and delivers wholesale and retail volumes of natural gas and natural gas liquids. Notes:  ·  "Major U.S. Energy Companies" are the top publicly-owned, U.S.-based crude oil and natural gas producers and petroleum refiners that form the Financial Reporting System.  See Table 3.14. ·  Data are for return on investment, measured as net income divided by net investment in place.  "Net income" is operating income plus other income and extraordinary income less operating expenses, taxes, interest charges, other deductions, and extraordinary deductions.  "Net investment in place" is net property, plant, and equipment plus investments and advances to unconsolidated affiliates. 3Through 2002, includes electric power, nuclear, renewable fuels, and nonconventional energy (including oil shale, tar sands, coal liquefaction and gasification, geothermal, and solar).  Beginning in 2003, includes coal, nuclear, renewable fuels, and nonconventional energy.
