Cc: Bcc: Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2001 11:10:13 -0700 (PDT) <<PR.JAN18.01.doc<< <<PROct_23_01.doc<< You may be interested in the attached press releases which Viking has issued over the past few business days. In these uncertain times, a healthy balance sheet, a solid team of talent, performing properties, and a proactive hedging program all contribute to Viking having a stable cash flow and distribution forecast through the year 2002. Viking is well positioned to realize on opportunities, as they may arise in these periods of volatility. In managing the assets of the Trust through all phases of the commodity price cycles, we continue to focus on the current yield and long term return objectives for Viking Unitholders. Regards, akp
