ITEMS 1 AND 2.  BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES
General
      Questar Pipeline Company (Questar Pipeline or the Company) is an 
interstate pipeline company that is engaged in the transportation and 
storage of natural gas in the Rocky Mountain states of Utah, Wyoming, 
and Colorado.  During 1996, the Company spun-down its gathering assets 
to Questar Gas Management Company (Questar Gas Management).  As a 
"natural gas company," the Company is subject to regulation by the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the FERC) pursuant to the Natural 
Gas Act of 1938, as amended, and certain other federal legislation.  

      As an open-access pipeline, Questar Pipeline transports gas for 
affiliated and unaffiliated customers.  It also owns and operates the 
Clay Basin storage facility, which is a large underground storage 
project in northeastern Utah, and other underground storage operations 
in Utah and Wyoming.  The Company is involved in two partnerships, 
Overthrust Pipeline Company (Overthrust), and TransColorado Gas 
Transmission Company (TransColorado).  

      In mid-1996, Questar Pipeline and its affiliate Mountain Fuel 
Supply Company (Mountain Fuel) were placed under the same management 
team of officers and linked together to form the Regulated Services 
segment of Questar Corporation (Questar).  Questar is a publicly-owned 
integrated energy supplier.  This reorganization was completed as of 
January 1, 1997, when both entities became subsidiaries of Questar 
Regulated Services Company (Regulated Services) and specified employees 
from both the Company and Mountain Fuel were transferred to the new 
parent.

      The Company has significant business relationships with its 
affiliates, particularly Mountain Fuel.  Mountain Fuel, a regulated 
local distribution company that serves over 618,200 customers in Utah, 
southwestern Wyoming, and southeastern Idaho, has reserved approximately 
800,000 decatherms (Dth) per day of firm transportation capacity on the 
Company's transmission system and reserved storage capacity at Clay 
Basin and smaller storage reservoirs.  (A Dth is an amount of heat 
energy equal to 10 therms or one million British thermal units (Btu).  
In the Company's system, each thousand cubic feet of gas (Mcf) equals 
approximately 1.07 Dth.)  Questar Pipeline transports natural gas owned 
by Mountain Fuel and produced from properties operated by Wexpro Company 
(Wexpro), another affiliate, as well as some natural gas volumes 
purchased directly by Mountain Fuel from field producers and other 
suppliers.  The Company also transports volumes that are marketed by 
Questar Energy Trading Company (Questar Energy), another affiliated 
entity.     

      The following diagram sets forth the corporate structure of the 
Company and certain affiliates:

      The major activities of Questar Pipeline are described in more 
detail below:

Transmission System

      The Company's transmission system is strategically located in the 
Rocky Mountains near large reserves of natural gas.  It is referred to 
as a "hub and spoke" system, rather than a "long-line" pipeline, because 
of its physical configuration, multiple interconnections to other 
interstate pipeline systems, and access to major producing areas.  
Questar Pipeline's transmission system has connections with the pipeline 
systems of Colorado Interstate Gas Company (CIG); the middle segment of 
the Trailblazer Pipeline System (Trailblazer) owned by Wyoming 
Interstate Company, Ltd. (WIC); Northwest Pipeline Corporation 
(Northwest Pipeline); Williams Natural Gas Company (Williams); and Kern 
River Gas Transmission Company (Kern River).  These connections have 
opened markets outside Mountain Fuel's service area and allow the 
Company to transport gas for others.

      The Company's transmission system includes 1,731 miles of 
transmission lines that interconnect with other pipelines and that link 
various producers of natural gas with Mountain Fuel's distribution 
facilities in Utah and Wyoming.  (This total transmission mileage 
includes pipelines associated with the Company's storage fields and tap 
lines used to serve Mountain Fuel.)  The system includes two major 
segments, often referred to as the northern and southern systems, which 
are linked together.  The northern segment extends from northwestern 
Colorado through southwestern Wyoming into northern Utah; the southern 
segment of the transmission system extends from western Colorado to 
Payson, in central Utah.

      The Company's pipelines, compressor stations, regulator stations, 
and other transmission-related facilities are constructed on properties 
held under long-term easements, rights of way, or fee interests 
sufficient for the conduct of its business activities.

      In addition to the transmission system described above, Questar 
Pipeline has a 36 percent interest and is the operating partner in 
Overthrust, a general partnership that was organized in 1979 to 
construct, own, and operate the Overthrust segment of Trailblazer.  
(During 1996, the Company's ownership interest increased from 18 percent 
to 36 percent as a result of purchasing the interest of Columbia Gulf 
Transmission Company.)  Trailblazer is a major 800-mile pipeline that 
transports gas from producing areas in the Rocky Mountains to the 
Midwest.  The 88-mile Overthrust segment is the western-most of 
Trailblazer's three segments.  Since gas production from the Overthrust 
area is generally shipped on the Kern River pipeline to California, the 
Overthrust segment is currently underutilized. 

      Questar Pipeline owns and operates a major compressor complex near 
Rock Springs, Wyoming, that compresses volumes of gas from the Company's 
transmission system for delivery to the WIC segment of the Trailblazer 
system and to CIG.  The complex has become a major delivery point on 
Questar Pipeline's system.  Five of the Company's major natural gas 
lines are connected to the system at the complex.  In addition, both of 
CIG's Wyoming pipelines and the WIC segment are connected to the 
complex.

      The Company and its partners are continuing to pursue a project 
announced in 1990 to build and operate the proposed TransColorado 
pipeline.  (Questar TransColorado, Inc., the Company's wholly owned 
subsidiary, is the named partner.)  Questar Pipeline's partners are 
affiliates of El Paso Natural Gas Company and KN Energy, Inc.  The 
proposed pipeline is 292 miles in length and would extend from the 
Piceance Basin in western Colorado to northwestern New Mexico, where it 
would interconnect with other major pipeline systems.  As designed, the 
pipeline could transport up to 300 million cubic feet (MMcf) of gas per 
day from western Colorado and other producing basins in Wyoming and Utah 
to California and midwestern and southwestern markets.  This project has 
received the necessary environmental clearance and regulatory approvals.  
It is moving forward in phases in response to shipper demand and market 
opportunities.  

Transportation Service

      Questar Pipeline's largest transportation customer is Mountain 
Fuel.  During 1996, the Company transported 100,161 thousand decatherms 
(MDth) for Mountain Fuel, compared to 79,872 MDth in 1995.  These 
transportation volumes include Mountain Fuel's cost-of-service gas 
produced by Wexpro, as well as volumes purchased by Mountain Fuel 
directly from field producers and other suppliers. 

      Prior to September 1, 1993, the Company purchased gas for resale 
to Mountain Fuel, its only sale-for-resale customer.  As of that date, 
Questar Pipeline discontinued sale-for-resale service, and Mountain Fuel 
converted its firm sales capacity to firm transportation capacity.  
Mountain Fuel has reserved capacity of about 800,000 Dth per day, or 
approximately 72 percent of Questar Pipeline's reserved daily capacity.  
Mountain Fuel paid an annual reservation charge of approximately $45.8 
million to the Company in 1996, which includes reservation charges 
attributable to firm and "no-notice" transportation.  Mountain Fuel only 
needs its total reserved capacity during peak-demand situations.  When 
it is not fully utilizing its capacity, Mountain Fuel releases the 
capacity to others, primarily industrial transportation customers and 
marketing entities, and receives revenue credits from the Company, which 
were approximately $9.1 million during 1996.

      Questar Pipeline's transportation agreement with Mountain Fuel 
expires on June 30, 1999.  While it is too soon to predict whether 
Mountain Fuel will continue to need this same firm transportation 
capacity on the Company's transmission system, it is clear that 
design-day requirements for Mountain Fuel's firm sales and 
transportation customers are growing rapidly.

      Questar Pipeline recovers approximately 96 percent of its 
transmission cost of service through reservation charges from firm 
transportation customers.  In other words, these customers pay for 
access to transportation capacity, rather than for the volumes actually 
transported.  Consequently, the Company's throughput volumes do not have 
a significant effect on its short-term operating results.  Questar 
Pipeline's transportation revenues are not significantly affected by 
fluctuating demand based on the vagaries of weather or gas prices.

      The Company's total system throughput increased from 270,654 MDth 
in 1995 to 276,383 MDth in 1996.  Most of this increase was attributable 
to expanded transportation volumes for Mountain Fuel.  The total 
throughput increase was also attributable to increased volumes for other 
affiliated customers, which expanded from 38,839 MDth in 1995 to 44,327 
MDth in 1996.  Questar Pipeline's transportation volumes for 
nonaffiliated customers declined from 151,943 MDth in 1995 to 131,895 
MDth in 1996.

      Questar Pipeline's transmission system is an open-access system 
and has been since September of 1988.  The FERC's Order No. 636 and the 
Company's tariff provisions require it to transport gas on a 
nondiscriminatory basis when it has available transportation capacity.  
It is permitted, as of February 1, 1996, to retain the first $800,000 in 
revenues associated with interruptible transportation services, and to 
retain 50 percent of the revenues between $800,000 and $1.2 million and 
25 percent of the revenues in excess of $1.2 million.  Since most of its 
costs are collected through reservation charges from firm customers, 
Questar Pipeline has agreed to share interruptible transportation 
revenues with these customers.

      Questar Pipeline will continue to develop and build new lines and 
related facilities that will allow it to meet customer needs or to 
improve transportation services.  During 1997, the Company plans to 
begin construction of a new 20-inch diameter line extending from Clay 
Basin to Coleman Station in southwestern Wyoming.  This project, which 
will be built in phases and is scheduled to be finished in 1998, will 
significantly expand Questar Pipeline's capacity to move gas north from 
the storage reservoir and its southern system.  The Company is also 
building a new pipeline into the Ferron area of eastern Utah, which is 
the site of a large project to produce gas from coal seams.

Storage

      Questar Pipeline operates a major storage facility at Clay Basin 
in northeastern Utah.  This storage reservoir has been operational since 
1977; open-access storage service has been available at Clay Basin since 
June of 1991.  The Company's storage facilities are certificated by the 
FERC and its rates for storage service (based on operating costs and 
investment in plant plus an allowed rate of return) are subject to the 
approval of the FERC.

      The Clay Basin facility, which was significantly expanded in 1995, 
is certificated for 46.3 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of working gas 
capacity and a total capacity of 110 Bcf.  (Working gas is gas that is 
injected and withdrawn.)  As a result of this expansion, Clay Basin's 
maximum deliverability increased to 765 MMcf per day.

      Clay Basin's firm storage capacity is fully subscribed by 
customers under long-term agreements.  Mountain Fuel currently has 12.5 
Bcf of working gas capacity at Clay Basin.  Other large customers 
include Northwest Pipeline; Washington Natural Gas Company, a 
distribution utility in Washington; and BC Gas Inc., a distribution 
utility in British Columbia.  Storage service is important to 
distribution companies that need to match annual gas purchases with 
fluctuating customer demand, improve service reliability, and avoid 
imbalance penalties.

      Questar Pipeline currently offers interruptible storage service at 
Clay Basin.  Effective January 1, 1997, it received regulatory approval 
to remove some constraints formerly applicable to interruptible storage 
service and hopes to expand interruptible services.  The Company also 
intends to allow firm storage service customers the right to transfer 
their injection and withdrawal rights to other parties.

      Questar Pipeline also owns and operates three smaller storage 
reservoirs.  These projects were developed specifically to serve 
Mountain Fuel's needs, and Mountain Fuel reserves 100 percent of their 
working gas capacity.  These small reservoirs are used primarily to 
supplement Mountain Fuel's gas supply needs on peak days.

Regulatory Environment

      The Company is a natural gas company under the Natural Gas Act and 
is subject to the jurisdiction of the FERC as to rates and charges for 
storage and transportation of gas in interstate commerce, construction 
of new storage and transmission facilities, extensions or abandonments 
of service and facilities, accounts and records, and depreciation and 
amortization policies.  Questar Pipeline holds certificates of public 
convenience and necessity granted by the FERC for the transportation and 
underground storage of natural gas in interstate commerce and for the 
facilities required to perform such operations.  

      Questar Pipeline, in common with other interstate pipelines, chose 
to terminate its sale-for-resale function when it implemented FERC Order 
No. 636.  To comply with Order No. 636, as amended, the Company 
restructured its tariff provisions to provide for firm and interruptible 
transportation and storage service, no-notice transportation service, a 
capacity release mechanism for shippers and a straight fixed-variable 
(SFV) rate methodology.  It was also required to discontinue use of firm 
upstream capacity in its own name, to provide flexible receipt and 
delivery points for firm transportation customers, and to provide an 
interactive electronic bulletin board to assist with the administration 
of the new provisions.

      A settlement agreement in the Company's 1995 general rate case was 
approved by the FERC effective February 1, 1996.  Under the terms of 
this settlement, Questar Pipeline was permitted to collect rates that 
reflected an annualized revenue increase of approximately $5.9 million, 
to earn a return on equity of 11.75 percent, and to retain specified 
revenues associated with interruptible transportation and storage 
services.

      Questar Pipeline does not currently plan to file a general rate 
case in 1997.  It, however, will continue to review its revenues and 
costs as it adds new facilities that are not included in its rate base 
and makes expenditures to comply with regulatory mandates.

      During 1997, the Company expects to spend $2.8 million to comply 
with the standards originally proposed by the Gas Industry Standards 
Board (GISB) and mandated by the FERC.  These requirements, commonly 
known as the GISB standards, are designed to facilitate the seamless 
transportation of gas volumes on pipeline systems and deal with such 
issues as nominations, confirmations, priority of service, allocation, 
balancing, and invoicing.  Questar Pipeline is required to comply with 
some standards by June 1, 1997, to have an Internet web site by August 
1, 1997, and to implement a second round of standards by November 1, 
1997.

      The FERC has adopted specific criteria for determining when 
"rolled-in" rates (rather than incremental rates) are appropriate.  
Under the FERC's policy, rolled-in rates will generally be approved if 
rates to existing customers will not increase by more than five percent 
and if specified system-wide operational and financial benefits can be 
demonstrated.  The FERC, however, can impose at-risk conditions on new 
projects even if it approves rolled-in rate treatment for them and can 
require additional support in subsequent rate cases to continue 
rolled-in treatment.

      In conjunction with its 1995 general rate case, Questar Pipeline 
received rolled-in rate treatment for some facilities that were 
previously certificated as at-risk facilities.  The FERC, however, did 
not remove the at-risk designation formerly placed on them.  Questar 
Pipeline has again requested the FERC to remove the at-risk condition on 
these facilities.  The Company, when contemplating future expansion 
projects, must evaluate the risk of having shareholders, not customers, 
absorb any underrecovery of costs if incremental revenues for a new 
project do not cover the costs of such project, versus the risk of 
losing transportation volumes to competitors.

      Under the Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act of 1968, as amended, the 
Company is subject to the jurisdiction of the Department of 
Transportation (DOT) with respect to safety requirements in the design, 
construction, operation and maintenance of its transmission and storage 
facilities.  The Company also complies with the DOT's drug and alcohol 
testing regulations.

      In addition to the regulations discussed above, Questar Pipeline's 
activities in connection with the operation and construction of 
pipelines and other facilities for transporting or storing natural gas 
are subject to extensive environmental regulation by state and federal 
authorities, including state air quality control boards and the 
Environmental Protection Agency.  These compliance activities increase 
the cost of planning, designing, installing and operating facilities.  

Competition

      Competition for Questar Pipeline's transportation and storage 
services has intensified in recent years.  Regulatory changes have 
significantly increased customer flexibility and responsibility to 
directly manage their gas supplies.  The Company actively competes with 
other interstate pipelines for transportation volumes throughout the 
Rocky Mountain region.

      The Company has two key assets that contribute to its continued 
success.  It has a strategically located and integrated transmission 
system with interconnections to major pipeline systems and with access 
to major producing areas and markets.  Questar Pipeline has the Clay 
Basin storage facility, a storage reservoir that has been successfully 
operated since 1977, that has been expanded in response to interest from 
customers, and that is fully subscribed by firm-service customers under 
contracts that are generally long-term in nature.  
      Questar Pipeline has established partnerships with others to 
acquire expertise, share risks, and expand opportunities.  Both the 
Overthrust pipeline and the proposed TransColorado pipeline involve 
partners.  

Employees

      As of December 31, 1996, the Company had 352 employees, compared 
to 467 as of the end of 1995.  (This decrease reflects the transfer of 
approximately 108 employees when gathering assets and activities were 
spun down to Questar Gas Management.)  As of the date of this report, 
Questar Pipeline has 169 employees, reflecting the transfer of employees 
to Regulated Services and Questar InfoComm, Inc. (Questar InfoComm.)  
None of these employees is represented under collective bargaining 
agreements.  The Company participates in the comprehensive benefit plans 
of Questar and pays the share of costs attributable to its employees 
covered by such plans.  Questar Pipeline's employee relations are 
generally deemed to be satisfactory.


Relationships with Affiliates

      There are significant business relationships between the Company 
and its affiliates, particularly Mountain Fuel.  These relationships are 
described above.  See Note 8 to the financial statements for additional 
information concerning transactions between the Company and its 
affiliates.

      The Company obtains data processing and communication services 
from another affiliate, Questar InfoComm, under the terms of a written 
agreement.  Regulated Services, the Company's parent, has employees who 
perform engineering, accounting, marketing, budget, tax, and legal 
services for both Questar Pipeline and Mountain Fuel.  Questar also 
provides certain administrative services, benefit plans, public 
relations, financial, audit, and tax, to the Company and other members of 
the consolidated group.  A proportionate share of the costs associated 
with such services is directly billed or allocated to Questar Pipeline.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      Questar Pipeline is involved in various legal and regulatory 
proceedings.  While it is not currently possible to predict or determine 
the outcome of these proceedings, it is the opinion of management that 
the outcome will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's 
financial position or liquidity.  

      The Company, Questar, Mountain Fuel and other affiliates are 
defendants in a lawsuit that was recently filed by a producer in 
Wyoming's federal district court.  This lawsuit involves some of the 
same take-or-pay and tax reimbursement claims that are the subject of a 
case against Mountain Fuel that has not yet been reduced to a final 
judgement in the same court.  The new lawsuit, however, also involves 
claims of fraud and antitrust violations.

A rate increase and expanded firm gas-storage activities
resulted in higher revenues in 1996 when compared with 1995.
Questar Pipeline filed for a rate increase with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) on July 31, 1995.  The
Company began collecting revenues under the new rate
structure, subject to refund, February 1, 1996.  The FERC
approved a rate settlement July 1, 1996 which included a
stated return on equity of 11.75% and allowed Questar Pipeline
to collect a greater share of costs from firm-transportation
customers.  The new rate structure adds approximately $5.9
million to annual revenues.

A majority of  Questar Pipeline's transportation capacity has
been reserved by firm-transportation customers.  Approximately
88% of firm-transportation capacity was reserved at year-end
1996, however all of city gate capacity is fully subscribed.
Mountain Fuel has reserved transportation capacity from     
Questar Pipeline of approximately 800,000 decatherms per day,  
or about 72% of the total reserved daily-transportation        
capacity through 1999.  Firm-transportation customers can      
release capacity to third parties when it is not required for
their own needs. Interruptible-transportation revenues have
been lower in 1996 and 1995 as a result of a shift by
customers from interruptible-transportation service to a
higher-quality capacity-release service.
                                                               
Storage revenues increased $3,004,000 in 1996.  In addition to 
a rate increase, firm-storage capacity increased from 41.8 Bcf 
to 46.3 Bcf in May 1995, resulting in higher revenues in 1996  
from a full 12 months of billings to customers.  Storage
revenues increased  $3,656,000 in 1995 as a result of         
increased capacity at the Clay Basin storage reservoir.       
Storage capacity at year-end 1996 was 100% subscribed, with   
some contracts extending through the year 2025.  Mountain Fuel   
has reserved 27% of firm-storage capacity through 2019.  In     
1997, Questar Pipeline began offering a more flexible-
interruptible-storage service.  Interruptible service will
utilize capacity that is temporarily not required by
firm-service customers. Questar Pipeline will retain 25% of
the interruptible-storage revenues and credit the remaining
75% to firm-storage customers.
                                                                 
Operating and maintenance expenses increased 18% in 1996 when
compared with 1995 as a result of an expansion of transmission
operations. Expenses increased 6% in 1995 when compared with
1994 primarily due to the costs associated with increased
transportation volumes.  Questar Pipeline initiated
cost-containment measures with an affiliated company, Mountain
Fuel, through the sharing of common services.  Questar
Pipeline and Mountain Fuel were made subsidiaries of recently
formed Questar Regulated Services Company (Regulated
Services).  Regulated Services was organized in 1996 to
provide administrative, financial, technical and related
services to Mountain Fuel and Questar Pipeline.

Depreciation expense was 10% higher in 1996 when compared to
1995 and 7% higher in 1995 when compared to 1994 as a result
of Questar Pipeline's capital expenditures.  Other taxes
decreased in 1996 when compared with 1995 due to settlements
with local taxing agencies that reduced property taxes.

Interest and other income was $1,274,000 higher in 1996 when
compared with 1995.  Project costs incurred in 1995, including
$1.2 million expended in an unsuccessful bid for another
pipeline, were not repeated in 1996.

Questar Pipeline purchased an 18% interest in the Overthrust
Pipeline partnership from Columbia Gulf Transmission Company
in 1996, bringing its ownership in the transmission line to
36%.  The Company's share of Overthrust Pipeline's 1995
operating results were $1.2 million before income tax.
Operating results were improved by a shipper's buyout of a
transportation contract.

The effective income tax rate was 37.2% in 1996, 35.1% in 1995  
and 32.8% in 1994.  A 1994 reversal of $1,245,000 of income
tax expense previously expensed resulted in a lower effective    
income tax rate. The adjustment resulted from the exclusion
from taxable income of the transportation revenues recorded on
cushion-gas transported into storage.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES      

Operating Activities
                                                               
Net cash provided from operating activities was $46,710,000 in 
1996, $36,991,000 in 1995 and $31,179,000 in 1994.  Net cash
provided from operating activities increased 26% in 1996 when        
compared with 1995 and 19% in 1995 when compared with 1994.  
The upward trend in cash flow resulted from higher net income,           
an increase in noncash expenses and more cash flow generation
from working capital accounts.

</TABLE>                                                     

Questar Pipeline's 1996 capital expenditures included
replacement and expansion of sections of gas mainlines,
completion of the Clay Basin storage project and cushion-gas
injection, storage well workovers and an additional 18%
interest in Overthrust Pipeline.

Financing Activities

The Company funded 1996 capital expenditures and regular
dividend payments primarily with cash flow provided from
operations. The proceeds of a note collected from a former
subsidiary were dividended to Questar.  In 1995, cash flow
provided from operations plus the collection of a note
receivable from a former subsidiary financed 1995 capital
expenditures and dividend payments. Forecasted 1997 capital
expenditures of $34.8 million are expected to be financed with
cash flow provided from operations and borrowings from
Questar.

Questar makes loans to the Company under a short-term
borrowing arrangement.  Outstanding short-term notes payable
to Questar totaled $11,800,000 at December 31, 1996 with an
interest rate of 5.63% and $15,200,000 at December 31, 1995
with an interest rate of 6.01%. The Company has a short-term
line-of-credit arrangement with a bank under which it may
borrow up to $200,000.  The line has interest rates below the
prime interest rate and is renewable in 1997. There were no
amounts borrowed under this arrangement at either December 31,
1996 or 1995. Questar Pipeline guarantees $9 million of
long-term debt borrowed by Blacks Fork Gas Processing Company.

Questar Pipeline's capital structure at year-end 1996 was 42%
long-term debt and 58% common shareholder's equity.  Moody's
and Standard and Poor's have rated the Company's long-term
debt A-1 and A+, respectively.

Report of Independent Auditors

Shareholders and Board of Directors
Questar Pipeline Company

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Questar Pipeline as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related
consolidated statements of income and common shareholders' equity
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1996.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of Questar Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the consolidated results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements, Questar
Pipeline Company changed its method of accounting for
postemployment benefits in 1994.

QUESTAR PIPELINE COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Summary of Accounting Policies

Business:  Questar Pipeline Company (the Company or Questar
Pipeline) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Questar Regulated
Services Company (Regulated Services).  Regulated Services is a
holding company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Questar
Corporation (Questar).  Regulated Services was organized in 1996
and provides administrative functions for its two subsidiaries,
Questar Pipeline and Mountain Fuel Supply Company (Mountain
Fuel).  Significant accounting policies are presented below.

Regulation:   The Company is regulated by the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC) which establishes rates for the
transportation and storage of natural gas.  The FERC also
regulates, among other things, the extension and enlargement or
abandonment of jurisdictional natural gas facilities. Regulation
is intended to permit the recovery, through rates, of the cost of
service including a rate of return on investment.  The financial
statements are presented in accordance with regulatory
requirements. Methods of allocating costs to time periods, in
order to match revenues and expenses, may differ from those of
nonregulated businesses because of cost allocation methods used
in establishing rates.

Use of Estimates:  The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
liabilities reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition:   Revenues are recognized in the period that
services are provided or products are delivered.  Questar
Pipeline periodically collects revenues subject to possible
refunds pending final orders from the FERC.  The Company
establishes reserves for revenues collected subject to refund.

Property, Plant and Equipment:  Property, plant and equipment is
stated at cost.  The provision for depreciation is based upon
rates, which will systematically charge the costs of assets over
their estimated useful lives. The costs of property, plant and
equipment are depreciated in the financial statements using the
straight-line method, ranging from 3 to 33% per year and
averaging 3.7% in 1996.

Credit Risk:  The Company's primary market area is the Rocky
Mountain region of the United States. The Company's exposure to
credit risk may be impacted by the concentration of customers in
this region due to changes in economic or other conditions.  The
Company's customers may be affected differently by changing
conditions.  Management believes that its credit-review
procedures and loss reserves have adequately provided for usual
and customary credit-related losses.  The carrying amount of
trade receivables approximates fair value.

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates:  The Company has a 36%
partnership interest in the Overthrust Pipeline Company, and is
the operator of the Overthrust Segment of the Trailblazer
Pipeline System. The Company is a one-third partner in
TransColorado Gas Transmission Company, which plans to construct
a pipeline from the Piceance Basin in Colorado to connections
with other pipelines in northern New Mexico.  The Company
accounts for its investment in these partnerships using the
equity method.

Income Taxes:  Questar Pipeline records cumulative increases in
deferred taxes as income taxes recoverable from customers.  The
Company has adopted procedures with its regulatory commissions to
include under-and over-provided deferred taxes in customer rates
on a systematic basis. Questar Pipeline uses the deferral method
to account for investment tax credits as required by the FERC.
The Company's operations are consolidated with those of Questar
and its subsidiaries for income tax purposes.  The income tax
arrangement between Questar Pipeline and Questar provides that
amounts paid to or received from Questar are substantially the
same as would be paid or received by the Company if it filed a
separate return.  Questar Pipeline also receives payment for tax
benefits used in the consolidated tax return even if such
benefits would not have been usable had the Company filed a
separate return.

Reacquisition of Debt:  Gains and losses on the reacquisition of
debt are deferred and amortized as debt expense over the
remaining life of the issue in order to match regulatory
treatment.

Allowance for Funds Used During Construction:  The Company
capitalizes the cost of capital during the construction period of
plant and equipment.  This amounted to $542,000 in 1996, $330,000
in 1995 and $976,000 in 1994.

Cash and Short-Term Investments:  Short-term investments consist
principally of Euro-time deposits and repurchase agreements with
maturities of three months or less.


Note 2 - Discontinued Operations - Gathering Division Spin Down
and Transfer

Questar Pipeline transferred approximately $55 million of
gas-gathering assets to Questar Gas Management Company, a wholly
owned subsidiary.  The transfer was approved by the FERC February
28, 1996 and was effective March 1, 1996.  Questar Gas Management
was subsequently transferred to the nonregulated Market Resources
group of Questar on July 1, 1996.  The transaction was in the
form of a stock dividend payable to Questar with no gain or loss
recorded.  Questar Pipeline's financial statements for 1995 and
1994 were restated, reflecting gas-gathering operations as a
discontinued business segment.


Note 3 - Debt

Questar makes loans to the Company under a short-term borrowing
arrangement.  Outstanding short-term notes payable to Questar
totaled $11,800,000 at December 31, 1996 with an interest rate of
5.63% and $15,200,000 at December 31, 1995 with an interest rate
of 6.01%. The Company has a short-term line-of-credit arrangement
with a bank under which it may borrow up to $200,000.  The line
has interest rates below the prime interest rate and is renewable
in 1997. There were no amounts borrowed under this arrangement at
either December 31, 1996 or 1995. Questar Pipeline guarantees $9
million of long-term debt borrowed by Blacks Fork Gas Processing
Company.

The details of long-term debt at December 31 were as follows:

                                            1996        1995

Sinking fund redemption of the 9 7/8% debt begins in 2001 in the
amount of $2,500,000.  There are no debt provisions restricting
the payment of dividends.  Cash paid for interest on debt was
$13,227,000 in 1996, $13,192,000 in 1995, and $13,065,000 in
1994.

</TABLE>

The Company used the following methods and assumptions in
estimating fair values:  (1) Cash and short-term investments and
short-term loans - the carrying amount approximates fair value;
(2) Long-term debt - the fair value of long-term debt is based on
quoted market prices.

Note 6 - Rate Matters, Litigation and Commitments

Questar Pipeline filed for a rate increase with the FERC on July
31, 1995.  The Company began collecting revenues under the new
rate structure, subject to refund, February 1, 1996.  The FERC
approved a rate settlement July 1, 1996.  The settlement included
a stated return on equity of 11.75% and allowed the Company to
collect a  greater share of costs from firm transportation
customers.  As a result of the new rate structure, Questar
Pipeline is expected to add approximately $5.9 million to annual
revenues.

There are various legal proceedings against the Company.  While
it is not currently possible to predict or determine the outcome
of these proceedings, it is the opinion of management that the
outcome will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations, financial position or liquidity.


Note 7 - Employment Benefits

Pension Plan: Substantially all Company employees are covered by
Questar's defined benefit pension plan. Benefits are generally
based on years of service and the employee's 36-month period of
highest earnings during the ten years preceding retirement.  It
is Questar's policy to make contributions to the plan at least
sufficient to meet the minimum funding requirements of applicable
laws and regulations. Plan assets consist principally of equity
securities and corporate and U.S. government debt obligations.
Pension cost was $974,000 in 1996, $867,000 in 1995 and $927,000
in 1994.

Questar Pipeline's portion of plan assets and benefit obligations
is not determinable because the plan assets are not segregated or
restricted to meet the Company's pension obligations.  If the
Company were to withdraw from the pension plan, the pension
obligation for the Company's employees would be retained by the
pension plan.  At December 31, 1996, Questar's fair value of plan
assets exceeded the accumulated benefit obligation.


Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions:  The Company pays a
portion of health-care costs and life insurance costs for
employees who retired prior to January 1, 1993.  The plan changed
for employees hired after January 1, 1993, to link the
health-care benefits to years of service and to limit Questar's
monthly health care contribution per individual to 170% of the
1992 contribution.  Employees hired after December 31, 1996, do
not qualify for benefits under this plan.  The Company's policy
is to fund amounts allowable for tax deduction under the Internal
Revenue Code.  Plan assets consist of equity securities,
corporate and U.S. government debt obligations, and insurance
company general accounts. The Company is amortizing the
transition obligation over a 20-year period, which  began in
1992.  Costs of postretirement benefits other than pensions were
$666,000 in 1996, $788,000 in 1995 and $853,000 in 1994. The FERC
allows rate-recovery of future postretirement benefits costs to
the extent that pipeline companies contribute the amounts to an
external trust.   As part of its 1996 general rate settlement,
Questar Pipeline began making contributions to an external trust
fund in 1996 for an amount of future postretirement costs and
will recover costs at December 1995 over a three-year period.

The Company's portion of plan assets and benefit obligations
related to postretirement medical and life insurance benefits is
not determinable because the plan assets are not segregated or
restricted to meet the Company's obligations.

Postemployment Benefits:  The Company recognizes the net present
value of the liability for postemployment benefits, such as
long-term disability benefits and health-care and life-insurance
costs, when employees become eligible for such benefits.
Postemployment benefits are paid to former employees after
employment has been terminated but before retirement benefits are
paid. The Company accrues both current and future costs.
Beginning in 1996, the FERC allowed Questar Pipeline to recover
postemployment costs measured at December 1995 in future rates
over a three-year period.

Employee Investment Plan:  The Company participates in Questar's
Employee Investment Plan (ESOP), which allows eligible employees
to purchase Questar common stock or other investments through
payroll deduction.  The Company makes contributions of Questar
common stock to the ESOP of approximately 75% of the employees'
purchases and contributes an additional $200 of common stock in
the name of each eligible employee.   The Company's expense and
contribution to the plan was $531,000 in 1996, $515,000 in 1995
and $456,000 in 1994.


Note 8 - Related Party Transactions

Questar Regulated Services was organized in 1996 and provides
shared services for its two subsidiaries, Mountain Fuel and
Questar Pipeline. These include business, technical and financial
support, as well as planning and business development.  Services
and the subsequent billings will begin in 1997.

The Company receives a substantial portion of its revenues from
Mountain Fuel Supply Company. Revenues received from Mountain
Fuel amounted to $61,146,000 or 59% in 1996, $54,096,000 or 57%
in 1995 and $56,200,000 or 62% in 1994.  The Company also
received revenues from other affiliated companies totaling
$4,195,000 in 1996, $3,896,000 in 1995 and $3,981,000 in 1994.


Questar performs certain administrative functions for the
Company.  The Company was charged for its allocated portion of
these services which totaled $3,045,000 in 1996, $2,644,000 in
1995, and $2,831,000 in 1994. These costs are included in
operating and maintenance expenses and are allocated based on
each company's proportional share of revenues, net of gas costs;
property, plant and equipment; and payroll. Management believes
that the allocation method is reasonable.

Questar InfoComm Inc is an affiliated company that provides data
processing and communication services to Questar Pipeline.  The
Company paid Questar InfoComm $7,155,000 in 1996, $7,542,000 in
1995 and $7,036,000 in 1994.

Questar Pipeline has a 15-year lease for space in an office
building located in Salt Lake City, Utah, that is owned by
affiliated company, Interstate Land.  The lease begins in the
fourth quarter of 1997 when remodeling of the building is
scheduled for completion.  The annual lease payment for the next
five years, beginning in 1998, is $576,000.

The Company received interest income from affiliated companies of
$609,000 in 1996, $1,998,000 in 1995 and $2,022,000 in 1994. The
Company incurred debt expense to Questar of $158,000 in 1996,
$272,000 in 1995 and $134,000 in 1994.
