	POWER OF ATTORNEY
      Know all by these presents, that the undersigned, Kenneth W. Boedeker,
hereby constitutes and appoints each of Patricia L. Edwards, Michele L. Hatz,
Christina K. Byrom, Vicky Strom and Amos J. Oelking, III, signing and/or acting
singly, as the undersigned?s true and lawful attorney-in-fact to:
(1) execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the undersigned?s
capacity as an executive officer of EOG Resources, Inc. (the ?Company?),
Forms 4 and 5 in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (as amended, the ?Exchange Act?) and the rules and regulations
thereunder;
(2) do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned
which may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such
Form 4 or Form 5, complete and execute any amendment or amendments
thereto, and timely file such form with the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or other authority as
may be required under applicable law; and (3) take any other action of
any type whatsoever and execute any other document of any type
whatsoever, in each case in connection with the foregoing and which,
in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in the best
interest of, or legally required of, the undersigned, it being understood that
the documents executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned
pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain
such terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such
attorney-in-fact?s discretion.
      The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full
power and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing
whatsoever requisite, necessary or proper to be done in the exercise of
any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents
and purposes as the undersigned might or could do if personally present,
