Sorry, not Exxon - Meggsy was right in that Kinder Morgan traces it's existence back to Enron:
"Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (KMP) was founded in February of 1997 when a group of investors led by Executive Chairman Richard D. Kinder and former Vice Chairman William V. Morgan acquired the general partner of a small, publicly traded pipeline limited partnership (Enron Liquids Pipeline)."
My bad!
