<P>On October 11, 2005, we entered into an agreement to sell certain natural gas gathering and processing assets located in Texas to Eagle Rock Energy, a privately held company based in Houston, Texas, for a purchase price of $528 million.  The transaction is expected to close December 1, 2005, and is subject to Hart-Scott-Rodino antitrust clearance.</P>





<P>The properties are located in the Texas Panhandle and include six gas processing plants with a capacity of approximately 150 million cubic feet per day and current average throughput of 70 percent; approximately 3,700 miles of gas gathering lines; and estimated natural gas liquid production of 13,500 barrels per day.  It is expected that the approximately 95 ONEOK employees associated with the assets will join Eagle Rock Energy.</P>

Item 8.01
Voluntary Disclosure of Other Events
On October 11, 2005, we entered into an agreement to sell certain natural gas gathering and processing assets located in Texas to Eagle Rock Energy, a privately held company based in Houston, Texas, for a purchase price of $528 million.  The transaction is expected to close December 1, 2005, and is subject to Hart-Scott-Rodino antitrust clearance.
The properties are located in the Texas Panhandle and include six gas processing plants with a capacity of approximately 150 million cubic feet per day and current average throughput of 70 percent; approximately 3,700 miles of gas gathering lines; and estimated natural gas liquid production of 13,500 barrels per day.  It is expected that the approximately 95 ONEOK employees associated with the assets will join Eagle Rock Energy.
We plan to use the proceeds from the sale to purchase other assets or to reduce debt.  After-tax cash proceeds are estimated to be $356 million.  The sale will generate an after-tax book gain of approximately $162 million, which will be recorded in the fourth quarter 2005.
