ITEM 1. BUSINESS
DuPont was founded in 1802 and was incorporated in Delaware in 1915. The company is the largest United States chemical producer and is one of the leading chemical producers worldwide. The company conducts fully integrated petroleum operations primarily through its wholly owned subsidiary Conoco Inc. and, in 1992, ranked eighth in the worldwide production of petroleum liquids by U.S.-based companies and tenth in the production of natural gas. Conoco Inc. and other subsidiaries and affiliates of DuPont conduct exploration, production, mining, manufacturing or selling activities, and some are distributors of products manufactured by the company.
During 1993, the company significantly changed the way it was organized. Large business sectors were eliminated and replaced by approximately twenty strategic business units. Within the strategic business units approximately 85 businesses manufacture and sell a wide range of products to many different markets, including the energy, transportation, textile, construction, automotive, agricultural, printing, health care, packaging and electronics markets.
The company and its subsidiaries have operations in about 70 nations worldwide and, as a result, about 45% of consolidated sales are derived from sales outside the United States, based on the location of the corporate unit making the sale. Total worldwide employment at year-end 1993 was about 114,000 people.
The company is organized for financial reporting purposes into five principal industry segments--Chemicals, Fibers, Polymers, Petroleum, and Diversified Businesses.
The following information describing the businesses of the company can be found on the indicated pages of Exhibit 13:
- -------- * Exclude photograph and related caption on page 4.
SOURCES OF SUPPLY
The company utilizes numerous firms as well as internal sources to supply a wide range of raw materials, energy, supplies, services and equipment. To assure availability, the company maintains multiple sources for most raw materials, including hydrocarbon feedstocks, and for fuels. Large volume purchases are generally procured under competitively priced supply contracts.
A majority of sales in the Chemicals, Fibers, and Polymers segments' businesses is dependent on hydrocarbon feedstocks derived from crude oil and natural gas. Current hydrocarbon feedstock requirements are met by Conoco and other major oil companies. A joint venture with OxyChem, a subsidiary of Occidental Petroleum Corporation, manufactures and supplies a significant portion of the company's requirements for ethylene glycol. A joint venture with subsidiaries of RWE AG supplies the company's requirements for coal. A significant portion of the company's caustic/chlorine needs is supplied by a joint venture with Olin Corporation.
The major purchased commodities, raw materials, and supplies for the following industry segments in 1993 are listed below:
In the Petroleum segment, the major commodities and raw materials purchased are the same as those produced. Approximately 59% of the crude oil processed in the company's U.S. refineries in 1993 came from U.S. sources. In 1993, the company's refineries outside the United States processed principally North Sea and Middle East crude oils.
In addition, during 1993, the company consumed substantial amounts of electricity and natural gas.
PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS
The company owns and is licensed under various patents, which expire from time to time, covering many products, processes and product uses. No individual patent is of material importance to any of the industry segments, although taken as a whole, the rights of the company and the products made and sold under patents and licenses are important to the company's business. During 1993, the company was granted 591 U.S. and 1,828 non-U.S. patents.
The company also has about 900 registered trademarks for its products. Ownership rights in trademarks continue indefinitely if the trademarks are continued in use and properly protected.
SEASONALITY
In general, sales of the company's products are not substantially affected by seasonality. However, the Diversified Businesses segment is impacted by seasonality of sales of agricultural products with highest sales in the first half of the year, particularly the second quarter. Within the Petroleum segment, the mix of refined products, natural gas and natural gas liquids varies because of increased demand for gasoline in the summer months and natural gas, heating oil and propane during the winter months.
MAJOR CUSTOMERS
The company's sales are not materially dependent on a single customer or small group of customers. The Fibers and Polymers segments, however, have several large customers in their respective industries that are important to these segments' operating results.
COMPETITION
Principal competitors in the chemical industry include major chemical companies based in the United States, Europe, Japan, the Republic of China and other Asian nations. Competitors offer a comparable range of products from agricultural, commodity and specialty chemicals to plastics, fibers and medical products. The company also competes in certain product markets with smaller, more specialized firms. Principal competitors in the petroleum industry are integrated oil companies, many of which also have substantial petrochemical operations, and a variety of other firms including independent oil and gas producers, pipeline companies, and large and small refiners and marketers. In addition, the company competes with the growing petrochemical operations in oil-producing countries.
Businesses in the Chemicals, Fibers, Polymers, and Diversified Businesses segments compete on a variety of factors such as price, product quality or specifications, customer service and breadth of product line, depending on the characteristics of the particular market involved. The Petroleum segment business is highly price-competitive and competes as well on quality and reliability of supply.
Further information relating to competition is included in two areas of Exhibit 13 (1) the "Letter to Stockholders" on pages 2, 4*, 5, 7 and (2) Industry Segment Reviews on pages 20-28.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The company's substantial research and development activities are primarily funded with internal resources and conducted at over 60 domestic sites in 21 states at both dedicated research facilities and manufacturing plants. DuPont operates several large research centers near Wilmington, Delaware supporting strategic business units in its Chemicals, Fibers, Polymers and Diversified Businesses segments. Among these, the Experimental Station laboratories engage in fundamental, exploratory and applied research, and the Stine-Haskell Research Center conducts agricultural product research and toxicological research of company products to assure they are safe for manufacture and use. At its facility in Ponca City, Oklahoma, the company conducts research for new products and technologies for petroleum operations as well as other segments of the business. DuPont also operates research facilities at a number of locations outside the United States in Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Luxembourg, Mexico, Netherlands, Switzerland and the United Kingdom reflecting the company's growing global business interests.
Research and development activities include exploratory studies to advance scientific knowledge in fields of interest to the company; basic and applied work to support and improve existing products and processes; and scouting work to identify and develop new business opportunities in relevant fields. Each strategic business unit of the company funds research and development activities to support its business mission. The corporate laboratories are responsible for assuring that leading-edge science and engineering concepts are identified and diffused throughout the DuPont technical community. All R&D activities are coordinated by senior R&D management to insure that business and corporate technical activities are integrated and that the core technical competencies underlying DuPont's current and future businesses remain healthy and continue to provide competitive advantages.
Further information regarding research and development is in Exhibit 13 on page 4 of the "Letter to Stockholders." Annual research and development expense and such expense shown "As Percent of Combined Segment Sales" for the five years 1989 through 1993 are included under the heading "General" of the Five- Year Financial Review on page 65 of Exhibit 13.
- -------- * Exclude photograph and related caption on page 4.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Information relating to environmental matters is included in two areas of Exhibit 13 (1) the "Letter to Stockholders" on page 5 and (2) "Management's Discussion and Analysis" on pages 33-34.
RISKS ATTENDANT TO FOREIGN OPERATIONS
The company's petroleum exploration and production operations outside the United States are exposed to risks due to possible actions by host governments such as increases or variations in tax and royalty payments, participation in the company's concessions, limited or embargoed production, mandatory exploration or production controls, nationalization, and export controls. Civil unrest and changes in government are also potential hazards. Under certain circumstances, the company has attempted to minimize its exposure by carrying political risk insurance.
The profitability of the company's worldwide exploration and production operations is also exposed to risks due to actions of the United States government through tax legislation, executive order, and commercial restrictions. Actions by both the United States and host governments have affected operations significantly in the past, and may continue to impact operations in the future.
ITEM 2.


ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The company owns and operates manufacturing, processing, production, refining, marketing, research and development facilities worldwide. In addition, the company owns and leases petroleum properties worldwide.
DuPont's corporate headquarters is located in Wilmington, Delaware, and the company's petroleum businesses are headquartered in Houston, Texas. In addition, the company operates sales offices, regional purchasing offices, distribution centers and various other specialized service locations.
Further information regarding properties is included in Exhibit 13 in the Industry Segment Reviews on pages 20-28. Information regarding research and development facilities is incorporated by reference to Item 1, Business-- Research and Development on page 5 of this report. Additional information with respect to the company's property, plant and equipment, and leases is incorporated by reference to Schedules V and VI on pages 20-22 of this report, and is contained in Notes 14 and 21 to the company's consolidated financial statements on pages 46 and 50 of Exhibit 13.
CHEMICALS, FIBERS, POLYMERS, AND DIVERSIFIED BUSINESSES
Approximately 75% of the property, plant and equipment related to operations in the Chemicals, Fibers, Polymers, and Diversified Businesses is located in the United States and Puerto Rico. This investment is located at some 85 sites, principally in Texas, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia, South Carolina, and New Jersey. The principal locations within these states are as follows:
Property, plant and equipment outside the United States and Puerto Rico is located at about 70 sites, principally in Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Singapore, Taiwan,
Mexico, France, Japan, Spain, Brazil, Republic of Korea, Argentina and Belgium. Products from more than one business are frequently produced at the same location.
The company's plants and equipment are well maintained and in good operating condition. Sales as a percent of capacity were 85% in 1993, 88% in 1992, and 86% in 1991. These properties are directly owned by the company except for some auxiliary facilities and miscellaneous properties, such as certain buildings and transportation equipment, which are leased. Although no title examination of the properties has been made for the purpose of this report, the company knows of no material defects in title to any of these properties.
PETROLEUM BUSINESSES
The company owns and leases oil and gas properties worldwide. Exploration, production, and natural gas and gas products properties are described generally on pages 24-26 and 58-63 of Exhibit 13. Estimated proved reserves of oil and gas are found on page 58 of Exhibit 13. Information regarding the company's refining, marketing, supply, and transportation properties is also provided on pages 24-26 of Exhibit 13.
PETROLEUM PRODUCTION
The following tables show the company's interests in petroleum production and natural gas deliveries. Petroleum liquids production comprises crude oil and condensate and natural gas liquids (NGL) removed for the company's account from its natural gas deliveries. Natural gas deliveries represent Conoco's share of deliveries from leases in which the company has an ownership interest. NGL's extracted from purchased natural gas by the company's gas processing plants are discussed under the topic "Natural Gas and Gas Products" on pages 9 and 10.
AVERAGE PRODUCTION COSTS AND SALES PRICES
The following table presents data as prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, the unit costs do not include income taxes and exploration, development and general overhead costs. Since these excluded costs are material, the following data should not be interpreted as measures of profitability or relative profitability. See Results of Operations for Oil- and Gas-Producing Activities on page 59 of Exhibit 13 for a more complete disclosure of revenues and expenses. See also the references to crude oil and natural gas prices and volumes in business review of the Petroleum segment on pages 24-26 of Exhibit 13.
- -------- (a) Average production costs per barrel of equivalent liquids, with natural gas converted to liquids at a ratio of 6 MCF of gas to one barrel of liquids. (b) Excludes proceeds from sales of interest in oil and gas properties.
PRESENT ACTIVITIES
- -------- *Includes wells being completed. **Approximately 186 gross (72 net) oil wells and 602 gross (177 net) gas wells, all in the United States, have multiple completions.
DEVELOPED AND UNDEVELOPED PETROLEUM ACREAGE
ESTIMATES OF TOTAL PROVED RESERVES FILED WITH OTHER FEDERAL AGENCIES COVERING THE YEAR 1993
The company is not required to file, and has not filed on a recurring basis, estimates of its total proved net oil and gas reserves with any U.S. or non- U.S. governmental regulatory authority or agency other than the Department of Energy (DOE) and the SEC. The estimates furnished to the DOE have been consistent with those furnished to the SEC. They are not necessarily directly comparable, however, due to special DOE reporting requirements such as requirements to report in some instances on a gross, net or total operator basis, and requirements to report in terms of smaller units. In no instance have the estimates for the DOE differed by more than 5% from the corresponding estimates reflected in total reserves reported to the SEC.
NATURAL GAS AND GAS PRODUCTS
The company has interests in 30 natural gas processing plants in the United States. Natural gas liquids extracted for the company's account from produced and purchased gas averaged 68,631 barrels per day in 1993 and 60,901 barrels per day in 1992. The company operates 16 of the gas plants: 1 in Colorado, 3 in Louisiana, 2 in New Mexico, 4 in Oklahoma, and 6 in Texas. Other natural gas facilities include an 800-mile intrastate natural gas pipeline system in Louisiana, owned by Louisiana Gas System, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, and natural gas and natural gas liquids pipelines in several states. C&L Processors Partnership, a 50% owned equity affiliate, has an additional 13 natural gas liquids plants in Oklahoma and Texas, and
Conoco's pro rata share of NGL production is 7,885 barrels per day. In May 1993, Conoco acquired a 22.5% interest in Gulf Coast Fractionators, a natural gas fractionator located in Mt. Belvieu, Texas, which is currently expanding from a capacity of 64,000 barrels per day to 104,000 barrels per day. Outside the United States, the company operates a 50% owned gas processing facility at Theddlethorpe, England, and owns a 41% interest in Phoenix Park Gas Processors, whose gas processing facility at Point Lisas, Trinidad, provided a net NGL production of 3,661 barrels per day to Conoco in 1993.
REFINING
The company currently owns and operates four refineries in the United States located at Lake Charles, Louisiana; Ponca City, Oklahoma; Billings, Montana; and Denver, Colorado. The company also owns and operates the Humber refinery in the United Kingdom and has a 25% interest in a refinery at Karlsruhe in Germany. Capacities at year-end 1993 as well as inputs processed during 1993 are summarized in the following table:
- -------- * Represents 25% interest in the Karlsruhe refinery.
Utilization of refinery capacity depends on the market demand for petroleum products and the availability of crude oil and other feedstocks.
MARKETING
In the United States, the company sells refined products at retail in 38 states, principally under the "Conoco" brand. In addition, the company markets a wide range of products other than at retail in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Refined products are also sold in Austria, Germany and the United Kingdom under the "Jet" and "Conoco" brands; in Belgium, France and Luxembourg under the "Seca" brand; and in Switzerland under the "OK Coop" brand. The "Jet" brand is used for marketing in the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Sweden, and Thailand. The company has commenced operations in Spain through a 50% equity affiliate.
SUPPLY AND TRANSPORTATION
The company has an extensive pipeline system for crude oil and refined products. Information concerning daily pipeline shipments is presented below:
Conoco Pipe Line Company (CPL), a wholly owned subsidiary and operator of the company's U.S. petroleum pipeline system, transported approximately 722 thousand barrels per day of crude oil and refined
products in 1993. In addition to pipeline facilities, CPL operates, under a management contract, four marine terminals, one coke-exporting facility and 52 product terminals located throughout the United States. These facilities are wholly or jointly owned by the company. Crude oil is gathered in the Rocky Mountain, mid-continent and southern Louisiana areas primarily for delivery to local refiners. Refined products pipelines are located in the Rocky Mountain and mid-continent areas to serve regional demand centers. Other U.S. transportation assets include numerous tank cars, barges, tank trucks and other motor vehicles.
The company also operates a fleet of seagoing crude oil tankers. These vessels, principally of Liberian registry, are described as follows:
ITEM 3.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Because of the size and nature of its business, the company is subject to numerous lawsuits and claims with respect to such matters as product liabilities, governmental regulations and other actions arising out of the normal course of business. While the effect on future financial results is not subject to reasonable estimation because considerable uncertainty exists, in the opinion of company counsel, the ultimate liabilities resulting from such lawsuits and claims will not materially affect the consolidated financial position of the company.
To date, DuPont has been served with more than 500 lawsuits in several jurisdictions, principally Florida, Hawaii and Puerto Rico, by growers who allege plant damage from using "Benlate" DF 50 fungicide. Seventy (70) of these suits have been disposed of: 12 by dismissal, 3 by summary judgment, 52 by settlement, 1 by directed verdict in DuPont's favor at trial, and 2 by jury verdict in DuPont's favor. Additionally, DuPont obtained summary judgment in 7 Florida cases, based on the economic loss doctrine which limits damages to breach of warranty. In our most recent trial (2 cases), a Florida jury returned a verdict in DuPont's favor. In 5 other trials, jury verdicts have been returned against DuPont, but for an average of less than a third of the compensatory damages claimed by the plaintiffs. In 4 of these trials, the juries also allocated liability to the plaintiffs. DuPont has appealed these jury verdicts. DuPont also had one jury verdict for the company. DuPont believes that "Benlate" DF 50 fungicide did not cause the alleged damages. DuPont had earlier paid claims based on the belief that, at the time, "Benlate" DF 50 would be found to be a contributor to the reported plant damage. In 1992, after eighteen months of extensive research, DuPont scientists concluded that "Benlate" DF 50 was not responsible for plant damage reports received since March 1991. Concurrent with these research findings, DuPont stopped paying claims relating to those reports.
Since 1989, DuPont has been served with approximately fifty-two, lawsuits in several jurisdictions, principally in Texas, Florida, Maryland and Arizona alleging damages as a result of leaks in certain polybutylene plumbing systems. A nationwide class action has been filed in state and federal court in Houston, Texas, but the class has not been certified as of this date. In most cases, DuPont is a codefendant with Shell, Hoechst-Celanese and other parts manufacturers. The polybutylene plumbing systems consist of flexible pipe
extruded from polybutylene connected by plastic fittings made from acetal. Shell Chemical is the sole producer of polybutylene; the acetals are provided by Hoechst-Celanese and DuPont. DuPont entered the market in 1983, and it is not known as to the number of commercial or dwelling units that have polybutylene plumbing systems, or the number of commercial or dwelling units that have DuPont's product in their plumbing systems. Presently, DuPont is active in twenty-four suits. There have been twenty-four lawsuits of which the company has disposed of twenty-three by pretrial settlements and one by dismissal. DuPont has not been to trial in any case.
On October 24, 1988, the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) issued a Compliance Order and Notice of Proposed Penalty to Conoco Inc. for alleged violations of the Louisiana Hazardous Waste Regulations. Following an inspection, LDEQ proposed a penalty of $165,000 for alleged violations related to the handling of by-product caustic and other refinery waste management practices. The company's legal counsel believes that the allegations are generally without factual basis, and that the penalty will be significantly reduced.
On April 3, 1991, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) assessed a civil penalty of $1.3 million pursuant to a Complaint and Notice of Hearing alleging violations of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) in connection with the distribution of a company fungicide. The allegations arise out of the discovery that a herbicide may have been introduced inadvertently into some batches of the fungicide during formulation at contractor sites in 1988 and 1989. The company was made aware of the potential problem by complaints from growers and notified EPA in August 1989 that it was undertaking a voluntary recall of suspect batches. EPA issued a stop sale order in September 1989 accompanied by a formal request for a product recall. The company has reviewed its recall with EPA and they have expressed satisfaction with the company's efforts. The company intends to seek a settlement of the Complaint and expects that the assessed penalty will be reduced.
On October 15, 1993, EPA filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Texas (Beaumont), against DuPont alleging various violations of the Clean Water Act at the Sabine River Works. Included are alleged unauthorized discharges, effluent limitation violations, and monitoring and reporting violations under the plant's NPDES permit. The government is seeking a civil penalty of $1.4 million. DuPont's legal counsel believes that most of the allegations are legally without merit and that the case will ultimately settle for a significantly smaller amount.
DuPont has entered into a voluntary agreement with the EPA to conduct an audit of the U.S. sites under the Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA). Agreement participation is not an admission of TSCA noncompliance. Maximum stipulated penalties which DuPont could pay under the agreement are capped at $1 million. The first phase of the audit was completed, but no findings have been issued. Subject to EPA's issuance of new reporting criteria, the second phase of its audit is scheduled to begin in mid-1994.
On October 18, 1991, EPA issued an Administrative Order under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) directing Conoco Pipe Line Company (CPLC) to undertake specific remedial measures related to a former oil reprocessing facility in Converse County, Wyoming. CPLC contested the Administrative Order, and has taken voluntary measures at the site together with other interested parties. On February 19, 1993, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a lawsuit against 10 entities, including CPLC, to enforce the Order and collect penalties. The DOJ calculates CPLC's maximum penalties as of April 1, 1993 at approximately $2.6 million. The lawsuit is in the discovery phase, and CPLC intends to vigorously defend this matter.
On July 1, 1993, EPA filed an administrative complaint against DuPont. EPA alleged that DuPont violated the premanufacturing notification regulations of the U.S. Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) and sought a $158,375 penalty. DuPont and EPA have signed an agreement to settle the complaint. Under the settlement, DuPont paid EPA $80,000, but did not admit that EPA's legal conclusions were true.
On December 21, 1993, Conoco's Denver Refinery received a Notice of Violation from EPA, Region VIII, and the Colorado Department of Health requesting a civil penalty of $169,500 in a dispute over proper scope and scheduling of certain RCRA on-site investigation activities. The investigation activities have previously been the subject of a settlement with EPA and the Colorado Department of Health, and the work performed has been in compliance with such agreement in the opinion of company counsel. As such, it is anticipated that the fine will be significantly reduced pursuant to negotiations between the parties.
