PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

PACIFIC ENTERPRISES

Pacific Enterprises is a Los Angeles-based utility holding company
primarily engaged in supplying natural gas throughout most of Southern and
portions of Central California. These operations are conducted through Southern
California Gas Company, the nation's largest natural gas distribution utility,
serving 4.7 million meters and 535 communities throughout a 23,000-square mile
service territory with a population of approximately 16 million. Through other
subsidiaries, Pacific Enterprises is also engaged in interstate and offshore
natural gas transmission and in alternate energy development.

STRATEGIC PLAN AND RECENT RESTRUCTURING

Pacific Enterprises returned to profitability in 1993 and resumed
dividends on its Common Stock. This was accomplished through the completion of a
strategic restructuring and the continued strong performance of gas utility
operations conducted through Southern California Gas Company, which has achieved
or exceeded its authorized rate of return on rate base for the last 11
consecutive years.

The restructuring was part of a new strategic plan to refocus on
natural gas utility operations. It was adopted in 1992 in response to
increasingly unsatisfactory financial performance and shareholder returns
attributable to non-utility operations. Non-utility operations had been greatly
expanded in 1986 with the initial acquisition of retailing operations and, to a
lesser extent, again in 1988 with additional acquisitions in retailing and in
oil and gas exploration and production. The profitability of gas utility
operations could not offset declines in non-utility operations and earnings per
share increasingly declined beginning in 1988 and substantial and increasing
losses were incurred beginning in 1990. As a result, non-utility related
indebtedness increased substantially and dividends on Common Stock were reduced
in 1991 and suspended in 1992.

During 1992 and early 1993, retailing and oil and gas exploration and
production operations were sold with the sale proceeds applied to reduce
non-utility related debt and the remaining debt was refinanced. Corporate staff
and other expenses also were reduced. In addition, a quasi-reorganization for
financial reporting purposes was effected on December 31, 1992 restating assets
and liabilities to their fair value and eliminating an accumulated deficit in
retained earnings.





-7-

In mid-1993, Pacific Enterprises completed a public offering of 8
million shares of its Common Stock and applied a portion of the proceeds of the
offering to the repayment of substantially all remaining non-utility debt. Cash
dividends on Common Stock were then resumed at an initial annual rate of $1.20
per share.

The restructuring was completed later in 1993 by establishing common
membership for the Boards of Directors of Pacific Enterprises and Southern
California Gas Company and electing several officers in common between the two
companies. These include Willis B. Wood, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer of Pacific Enterprises, who was elected as Presiding Director of
Southern California Gas Company and Richard D. Farman, Chief Executive Officer
of Southern California Gas Company, who was elected as President of Pacific
Enterprises.

------------------------------

Pacific Enterprises was incorporated in California in 1907 as the
successor to a corporation organized in 1886. Its principal executive offices
are located at 633 West Fifth Street, Los Angeles, California 90071-2006 and
its telephone number is (213) 895-5000.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY

Pacific Enterprises' principal subsidiary is Southern California Gas
Company ("SoCalGas"), a public utility owning and operating a natural gas
transmission, storage and distribution system that supplies natural gas in 535
cities and communities throughout most of Southern California and parts of
Central California. SoCalGas is the nation's largest natural gas distribution
utility, providing gas service to approximately 16 million residential,
commercial, industrial, utility electric generation and wholesale customers
through approximately 4.7 million meters in a 23,000-square mile service area.


SoCalGas is subject to regulation by the California Public Utilities
Commission (CPUC) which, among other things, establishes rates SoCalGas may
charge for gas service, including an authorized rate of return on investment.
SoCalGas' future earnings and cash flow will be determined primarily by the
allowed rate of return on common equity, growth in rate base, noncore pricing
and the variance in gas volumes delivered to these noncore customers versus
CPUC-adopted forecast deliveries, the recovery of gas and contract restructuring
costs if the Comprehensive Settlement (see "Recent Developments - Comprehensive
Settlement of Regulatory Issues") is not approved and the ability of management
to control expenses and investment in line with the amounts authorized by the
CPUC to be collected in rates. Also, SoCalGas' ability to earn revenues in
excess of its authorized return from noncore customers due to volume increases
will be substantially eliminated for the five years of the Comprehensive
Settlement referenced above. This is because forecasted deliveries in excess of
the 1991 throughput levels used to establish rates were contemplated in
estimating the costs of the Comprehensive Settlement, and are reflected in
current year liabilities. In addition, the impact of





-8-

any future regulatory restructuring and increased competitiveness in the
industry, including the continuing threat of customers bypassing SoCalGas'
system and obtaining service directly from interstate pipelines, can affect
SoCalGas' performance.

For 1994, the CPUC has authorized SoCalGas to earn a rate of return on
rate base of 9.22 percent and a 11.00 percent rate of return on common equity
compared to 9.99 percent and 11.90 percent, respectively, in 1993. Growth in
rate base for 1993 was approximately 1.8 percent and rate base is expected to
increase by approximately 4 percent to 5 percent in 1994. SoCalGas has achieved
or exceeded its authorized return on rate base for the last eleven consecutive
years and its authorized rate of return on equity for the last nine consecutive
years.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

REGULATORY ACTIVITY

On December 17, 1993, the CPUC issued its decision in SoCalGas' 1994
general rate case which authorized a net $97 million rate reduction. SoCalGas
plans to adjust its operations with the intention of operating within the
amounts authorized in rates. Approximately $21 million of the rate reduction
represents productivity improvements. Other items include non-operational
issues, primarily reductions in marketing programs and income tax effects of
the rate reduction. The decision also includes the effects of the reduction
of SoCalGas' rate of return authorized in its 1994 cost of capital proceeding,
which increased the total reduction in rates to $132 million. New rates
emanating from the CPUC decision became effective January 1, 1994.

RESTRUCTURING OF GAS SUPPLY CONTRACTS

SoCalGas and the Company's gas supply subsidiaries have reached
agreements with suppliers of California offshore and Canadian gas for a
restructuring of long-term gas supply contracts. The cost of these supplies to
SoCalGas has been substantially in excess of its average delivered cost of gas.
During 1993, these excess costs totaled approximately $125 million.

The new agreements substantially reduce the ongoing delivered costs of
these gas supplies and provide lump sum settlement payments of $375 million to
the suppliers. The expiration date for the Canadian gas supply contract has
been shortened from 2012 to 2003, and the supplier of California offshore gas
continues to have an option to purchase related gas treatment and pipeline
facilities owned by the Company's gas supply subsidiary. The agreement with the
suppliers of Canadian gas is subject to certain Canadian regulatory and other
approvals.






-9-

COMPREHENSIVE SETTLEMENT OF REGULATORY ISSUES

SoCalGas and a number of interested parties, including the Division of
Ratepayer Advocates ("DRA") of the CPUC, large noncore customers and ratepayer
groups, have filed for CPUC approval a comprehensive settlement (the
"Comprehensive Settlement") of a number of pending regulatory issues including
partial rate recovery of restructuring costs associated with the gas supply
contracts discussed above. The Comprehensive Settlement, if approved by the
CPUC, would permit SoCalGas to recover in utility rates approximately 80 percent
of its contract restructuring costs of $375 million and accelerated depreciation
of related pipeline assets of its gas supply affiliates of approximately $130
million, together with interest, over a period of approximately five years.
SoCalGas has filed a financing application with the CPUC primarily for the
borrowing of $425 million to provide for funds needed under the Comprehensive
Settlement. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations - Comprehensive Settlement of Regulatory
Issues" for a discussion of the regulatory issues, in addition to the gas supply
issues, addressed in the Comprehensive Settlement.

SERVICE AREA

SoCalGas distributes natural gas throughout a 23,000 - square mile
service territory with a population of approximately 16 million people. As
indicated by the following map, its service territory includes most of Southern
California and portions of Central California.



[MAP]



Natural gas service is also provided on a wholesale basis to the distribution
systems of the City of Long Beach, San Diego Gas & Electric Company and
Southwest Gas Company.





- 12 -

UTILITY SERVICES


SoCalGas' customers are divided, for regulatory purposes, into core
and noncore customers. Core customers are primarily residential and small
commercial and industrial customers, without alternative fuel capability.
Noncore customers are primarily electric utilities, wholesale and large
commercial and industrial customers, with alternative fuel capability.

SoCalGas offers two basic utility services, sale of gas and
transmission of gas. Residential customers and most other core customers
purchase gas directly from SoCalGas. Noncore customers and large core customers
have the option of purchasing gas either from SoCalGas or from other sources
(such as brokers or producers) for delivery through SoCalGas' transmission and
distribution system. Smaller customers are permitted to aggregate their gas
requirements and also to purchase gas directly from brokers or producers, up to
a limit of 10 percent of SoCalGas' core market. SoCalGas generally earns the
same contribution to earnings whether a particular customer purchases gas from
SoCalGas or utilizes SoCalGas' system for transportation of gas purchased from
others. (See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations - Ratemaking Procedures.")

SoCalGas continues to be obligated to purchase reliable supplies of
natural gas to serve the requirements of its core customers. However, the only
gas supplies that SoCalGas may offer for sale to noncore customers are the same
supplies that it purchases to serve its core customers. Noncore customers that
elect to purchase gas supplies from SoCalGas must for a two-year period agree to
take-or-pay for 75 percent of the gas that they contract to purchase.

SoCalGas also provides a gas storage service for noncore customers on
a bid basis. The storage service program provides opportunities for customers
to store gas on an "as available" basis during the summer to reduce winter
purchases when gas costs are generally higher, or to reduce their level of
winter curtailment in the event temperatures are unusually cold. During 1993,
SoCalGas stored approximately 24 billion cubic feet of customer-owned gas.





- 13 -

DEMAND FOR GAS


Natural gas is a principal energy source in SoCalGas' service area for
residential, commercial and industrial uses as well as utility electric
generation (UEG) requirements. Gas competes with electricity for residential
and commercial cooking, water heating and space heating uses, and with other
fuels for large industrial, commercial and UEG uses. Demand for natural gas in
Southern California is expected to continue to increase but at a slower rate due
primarily to a slowdown in housing starts, new energy efficient building
construction and appliance standards and general recessionary business
conditions.

During 1993, 97 percent of residential energy customers in SoCalGas'
service territory used natural gas for water heating and 94 percent for space
heating. Approximately 78 percent of those customers used natural gas for
cooking and over 72 percent for clothes drying.

Demand for natural gas by large industrial and UEG customers is very
sensitive to the price of alternative competitive fuels. These customers number
only approximately 1,000; however, during 1993, accounted for approximately 19
percent of total revenues, 65 percent of total gas volumes delivered and 15
percent of the authorized gas margin. Changes in the cost of gas or alternative
fuels, primarily fuel oil, can result in significant shifts in this market,
subject to air quality regulations. Demand for gas for UEG use is also affected
by the price and availability of electric power generated in other areas and
purchased by SoCalGas' UEG customers.


Since the completion of the Kern River/Mojave Interstate Pipeline
(Mojave) in February 1992, SoCalGas' throughput to customers in the Kern County
area who use natural gas to produce steam for enhanced oil recovery projects has
decreased significantly because of the bypass of SoCalGas' system. Mojave now
delivers to customers formerly served by SoCalGas 350 to 400 million cubic
feet of gas per day. The decrease in revenues from enhanced oil recovery
customers is subject to full balancing account treatment, except for a five
percent incentive to SoCalGas for attaining certain throughput levels, and
therefore, does not have a material impact on earnings. However, bypass of
other Company markets also may occur as a result of plans by Mojave to extend
its pipeline north to Sacramento through portions of SoCalGas' service
territory. The effect of bypass is to increase SoCalGas' rates to other
customers and thus make its natural gas service less competitive with that of
competing pipelines and available alternate fuels.





- 14 -



In response to bypass, SoCalGas has received authorization from the
CPUC for expedited review of price discounts proposed for long-term gas
transportation contracts with some noncore customers. In addition, in December
1992, the CPUC approved changes in the methodology for allocating SoCalGas'
costs between core and noncore customers to reduce the subsidization of core
customer rates by noncore customers. Effective in June 1993, these new rate
changes implemented the CPUC's policy known as "long-run marginal cost." The
revised methodologies have resulted in a reduction of noncore rates and a
corresponding increase in core rates that better reflect the cost of serving
each customer class and, together with price discounting authority, has enabled
SoCalGas to better compete with interstate pipelines for noncore customers. In
addition, in August 1993 a capacity brokering program was implemented. Under
the program, for a fee, SoCalGas provides to noncore customers, or others, a
portion of its control of interstate pipeline capacity to allow more direct
access to producers. Also, the Comprehensive Settlement (see "Recent
Developments - Comprehensive Settlement of Regulatory Issues") will help
SoCalGas' competitiveness by reducing the cost of transportation service to
noncore customers.

SUPPLIES OF GAS

In 1993, SoCalGas delivered slightly less than 1 trillion cubic feet
of natural gas through its system. Approximately 64 percent of these deliveries
were customer-owned gas for which SoCalGas provided transportation services,
compared to 65 percent in 1992. The balance of gas deliveries was gas purchased
by SoCalGas and resold to customers.

Most of the natural gas delivered by SoCalGas is produced outside of
California. These supplies are delivered to the California border by interstate
pipeline companies (primarily El Paso Natural Gas Company and Transwestern
Natural Gas Company) that produce or purchase the supplies or provide
transportation services for supplies purchased from other sources by SoCalGas or
its transportation customers. These supplies enter SoCalGas' intrastate
transmission system at the California border for delivery to customers.

SoCalGas currently has paramount rights to daily deliveries of up to
2,200 million cubic feet of natural gas over the interstate pipeline systems of
El Paso Natural Gas Company (up to 1,450 million cubic feet) and Transwestern
Pipeline Company (up to 750 million cubic feet). The rates that interstate
pipeline companies may charge for gas and transportation services and other
terms of service are regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(FERC).

Market sensitive gas supplies (supplies purchased on the spot market
as well as under longer-term contracts and ranging from one month to ten years
based on spot prices) accounted for approximately 66 percent of total gas
volumes purchased by SoCalGas during 1993, as compared with 61 percent and 69
percent, respectively, during 1992 and 1991. These supplies were generally
purchased at prices significantly below those for other long-term sources of
supply.

Condition and Results of Operations - Comprehensive Settlement of Regulatory
Issues" for a discussion of the contemplated gas cost incentive mechanism. On
March 16, 1994, the CPUC issued its decision approving the gas cost incentive
mechanism for implementation for a three year trial period beginning April 1,
1994.

SoCalGas estimates that sufficient natural gas supplies will be
available to meet the requirements of its customers into the next century.
Because of the many variables upon which estimates of future service are
based, however, actual levels of service may vary significantly from estimated
levels.


RATES AND REGULATION

SoCalGas is regulated by the CPUC. The CPUC consists of five
commissioners appointed by the Governor of California for staggered six-year
terms. It is the responsibility of the CPUC to determine that utilities operate
in the best interest of the ratepayer with a reasonable profit. The regulatory
structure is complex and has a very substantial impact on the profitability of
SoCalGas.

The return that SoCalGas is authorized to earn is the product of the
authorized rate of return on rate base and the amount of rate base. Rate base
consists primarily of net investment in utility plant. Thus, SoCalGas' earnings
are affected by changes in the authorized rate of return on rate base and the
growth in rate base and by SoCalGas' ability to control expenses and investment
in rate base within the amounts authorized by the CPUC in setting rates.
SoCalGas' ability to achieve its authorized rate of return is affected by other
regulatory and operating factors. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Ratemaking
Procedures."

SoCalGas' operating and fixed costs, including return on rate base,
are allocated between core and noncore customers under a methodology that is
based upon the costs incurred in serving these customer classes. For 1994,
approximately 87 percent of the CPUC-authorized gas margin has been allocated to
core customers and 13 percent to noncore customers, including wholesale
customers. Under the current regulatory framework,





-18-


costs may be reallocated between the core and the noncore markets once every
other year in a biennial cost allocation proceeding (BCAP).

PROPERTIES

At December 31, 1993, SoCalGas owned approximately 3,280 miles of
transmission and storage pipeline, 42,250 miles of distribution pipeline and
42,406 miles of service piping. It also owned twelve transmission compressor
stations and six underground storage reservoirs (with a combined working storage
capacity of approximately 116 billion cubic feet) and general office buildings,
shops, service facilities, and certain other equipment necessary in the conduct
of its business.

Southern California Gas Tower, a wholly owned subsidiary of SoCalGas,
has a 15% limited partnership interest in a 52-story office building in downtown
Los Angeles. SoCalGas occupies about half of the building. See also "Item 2.
Properties."

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

SoCalGas has identified and reported to California environmental
authorities 42 former gas manufacturing sites for which it (together with other
utilities as to 21 of the sites) may have remedial obligations under
environmental laws. In addition, SoCalGas is one of a large number of major
corporations that have been named by federal authorities as potentially
responsible parties for environmental remediation of two other industrial sites
and a landfill site. These 45 sites are in various stages of investigation or
remediation. It is anticipated that the investigation, and if necessary,
remediation of these sites will be completed over a period of from ten years to
twenty years.

The CPUC approved approximately $9 million in SoCalGas' base rates for
expenditures beginning in 1990 through 1993 associated with investigating these
sites. In addition, the CPUC previously has approved a special ratemaking
procedure with respect to environmental remediation costs under which, upon
approval by the CPUC on a site-by-site basis, these costs are accumulated for
recovery in future rates subject to a reasonableness review. However, in a
decision issued in late 1992 in connection with its initial reasonableness
review of these costs, the CPUC concluded that SoCalGas had failed to
demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence, the reasonableness for rate
recovery of the applied for remediation costs under the existing ratemaking
procedure. The decision concluded that a reasonableness review procedure may not
be appropriate for rate





-19-


recovery of environmental remediation costs. In addition, the CPUC ordered
SoCalGas, along with other California energy utilities and the DRA, to work
toward the development of an alternate ratemaking procedure including cost
sharing between shareholder and ratepayers.

In November 1993, a collaborative settlement agreement between the
above parties was submitted to the CPUC for approval that recommends a
ratemaking mechanism that would provide recovery of 90 percent of environmental
investigation and remediation costs without reasonableness review. In addition,
the utilities would have the opportunity to retain a percentage of any insurance
recoveries to offset the 10 percent of costs not recovered in rates. On March
10, 1994, an administrative law judge's proposed decision was issued which
adopted the sharing mechanism discussed above. A final CPUC decision is
expected in mid-1994.

Through the end of 1993, preliminary investigations at 33 sites have
been completed by SoCalGas and remediation liabilities are estimated to be $82
million for all 45 sites. The liability estimated for these sites is subject to
future adjustment pending further investigation. (See Note 5 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements filed as Exhibit 1.07 to this Annual Report.)

INTERSTATE PIPELINE OPERATIONS

Pacific Enterprises is engaged, through Pacific Interstate Company, in
interstate and offshore purchase and transmission of natural gas which is resold
to SoCalGas under long-term supply contracts. Two subsidiaries own and operate
pipelines and related facilities for deliveries to SoCalGas of gas produced from
offshore fields near Santa Barbara, California. Another subsidiary has an
interest in pipeline facilities for deliveries to SoCalGas of gas from Western
Canada.

The operations of one of these subsidiaries is regulated by the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission which has approved tariffs which provide
for the recovery from SoCalGas of virtually all costs related to the purchase
and delivery of natural gas. During 1993, these operations accounted for
approximately 26% of the total volume of gas purchased by SoCalGas and 10% of
SoCalGas' total throughput.





-20-

ALTERNATE ENERGY OPERATIONS

Through Pacific Energy, Pacific Enterprises builds and operates
electricity generating plants fueled by renewable energy sources, including gas
from sanitary landfills, waste wood, hydropower and geothermal. Electricity
produced by these plants is sold to electric utilities under long-term contracts
generally providing for escalating fixed prices for ten years with pricing
thereafter at the utility's short-run avoided cost. The fixed pricing periods
for Pacific Energy's existing contracts expire between 1995 and 1997 and Pacific
Enterprises anticipates that avoided cost pricing will result in substantially
lower prices for its electrical production than the fixed prices currently being
received.

Pacific Energy also develops and operates centralized heating and air
conditioning plants. These plants supply heated and chilled water for heating
and cooling major office buildings, hotels and apartments.





-21-


EMPLOYEES

Pacific Enterprises and its subsidiaries employ approximately 9,300
persons. Of these, approximately 9,000 are employed by SoCalGas.

Most field, clerical and technical employees of SoCalGas are
represented by the Utility Workers' Union of America, or the International
Chemical Workers' Union. Collective bargaining agreements covering these
approximately 6,400 employees expired on June 30, 1993, principally as a
consequence of failure to reach agreement with respect to SoCalGas' proposal to
permit the use of outside contractors for certain services now being provided by
union represented employees, if costs were not lowered to an amount that would
be incurred through the use of outside contractors. In August 1993, after
reaching an impasse, SoCalGas unilaterally implemented the majority of its
proposals and after two failed strike votes and further negotiations, the Union
membership voted in February 1994 on a contract with terms consistent with that
implemented by SoCalGas. On February 28, 1994, the Union notified SoCalGas that
the contract had been ratified by the membership and a contract was signed on
March 9, 1994. The collective bargaining agreement with respect to wages and
working conditions will extend through March 31, 1996. The medical plan
agreement will expire on December 31, 1995.

MANAGEMENT

The executive officers of Pacific Enterprises are as follows:


Name Age Position
- ---- --- --------
Willis B. Wood, Jr. 59 Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer and
Presiding Director of Southern
California Gas Company

Richard D. Farman 58 President and Chief Operating
Officer and Chief Executive
Officer of Southern California
Gas Company

Warren I. Mitchell 56 President of Southern
California Gas Company

Lloyd A. Levitin 61 Executive Vice President,
Treasurer and Chief Financial
Officer

Charles F. Weiss 54 Senior Vice President and
Chief Administrative Officer

Leslie E. LoBaugh, Jr. 48 Vice President and General
Counsel

Executive officers are elected annually and serve at the pleasure of
the Board of Directors.

All of Pacific Enterprises' executive officers have been employed by
Pacific Enterprises or its subsidiaries in management positions for more than
five years.

There are no family relationships between any of Pacific Enterprises'
executive officers.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES


Pacific Library Tower, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific
Enterprises, has a 25% ownership interest in a 72-story office building in
downtown Los Angeles that was completed in late 1990. Pacific Enterprises and
its subsidiaries occupy twelve floors of the building.

Information with respect to the properties of other Pacific
Enterprises' subsidiaries is set forth in Item 1 of this Annual Report.


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Except for the matters referred to in the financial statements filed
with or incorporated by reference in Item 8 or referred to elsewhere in this
Annual Report, neither Pacific Enterprises nor any of its subsidiaries is a
party to, nor is their property the subject of, any material pending legal
proceedings other than routine litigation incidental to its businesses.

Pacific Enterprises and certain of its directors and former directors
are defendants in seven shareholder actions. Three of the actions are
substantially identical shareholder derivative actions in which Pacific
Enterprises is named only as a nominal defendant. The derivative actions seek
recovery from the defendant directors on behalf of Pacific Enterprises for
damages asserted to have been suffered by Pacific Enterprises by alleged
breaches of fiduciary duties by the directors in connection with Pacific
Enterprises' diversification program. The remaining four actions are shareholder
class actions filed on behalf of shareholders who purchased shares of Pacific
Enterprises between June 5, 1990 and February 4, 1992 and seek recovery from
Pacific Enterprises and the defendant directors for damages asserted to have
been suffered as a result of allegedly improper disclosures under the federal
securities laws. In January 1994, Pacific Enterprises announced an agreement had
been reached to settle the shareholder lawsuits which were originally filed in
February 1992. The settlement, which is subject to court approval, totals $45
million. The settlement and related legal costs, after giving effect to amounts
paid by other parties, had been fully provided in liabilities established in
prior years. Pacific Enterprises is a defendant in various lawsuits arising in
the normal course of business; however, management believes that the resolution
of these pending claims and legal proceedings will not have a material adverse
effect on Pacific Enterprises' financial statements.
