THE STARTER WIFE

摘要

At press time, Atlas Energy Inc. share- holders were to vote on the Marcellus- and Antrim-shale-focused E&P's purchase by Chevron Corp., as Atlas joint-venture partner Reliance Industries Ltd. remained mysteriously quiet after filing a letter of protest. India-based Reliance contends it was not fairly offered a chance to bid against Chevron for the whole company last fall, while Chevron was the No. 2 bidder in the $1.7-billion JV that Reliance won last spring.
