Hi Mark, I have not met you yet but heard a lot of good things about you. =
I=20 would like to discuss with you and possibly with John Bloomer and Richard= =20 Reichardt about the EBS Research's role in supporting the Storage market=20 development from the origination and trading perspective. There are severa= l=20 people in various groups that are talking about storage but here is what's = my=20 take on our involvement--please correct me or suggest otherwise. =20 Shalesh Ganjoo is our lead analyst on this effort. In addition to his effo= rt=20 with your group, he is presently supporting Jean Mrha with pricing and=20 standardization for a traded storage maret--Stinson Gibner is directly=20 supervising him in this effort. Shalesh came to us through referal from David Cox--David discovered him at= =20 one of his speaking engagements. Shalesh had talked to David about traded= =20 storage market development some time last October and David refered Shalesh= =20 to Enron Research group. We hired Shalesh for general analyst position and= =20 now he is pulled into all aspect of this storage effort. Currently, he is= =20 our point person (with Stinson or I supervising his effort) who is supporti= ng=20 Jean Mrha and you on the subject. Kara Knop has aproached Shalesh with=20 request for some support and Shalesh and she are sorting out each other=01,= s=20 role in this regard. As per my discussion today with David, we need to=20 coordinate this storage effort from the perspective of modeling market=20 assessment etc. For this I suggest Shalesh and his effort so that all parti= es=20 involved can benefit from collective effort within one central source. Bas= ed=20 on David's and my assessment of Shalesh's capabilities, I would like to=20 suggest that the commercial heads use Shalesh for his creative thinking,=20 understanding of the market and analytical capabilities and not just for da= ta=20 gathering and simple research effort. We can add other staff as we see the= =20 need and as you request them.=20 Please respond this e-mail with your comments if this sounds like aplan, so= =20 that we can support this effort efficiently and in a scalable manner. Kind Regards, Ravi. A bit about EBS Research Group John Bloomer and Richard Reichardt have met me and are aware of my role and= =20 Stinston Gibner's role in EBS.
