	POWER OF ATTORNEY
      Know all by these presents, that the undersigned, Julie J. Robertson,
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 a director 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,
with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and
confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-in-fact?s

virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein
granted. The undersigned acknowledges that the foregoing attorneys-in-
fact, in serving in such capacity at the request of the undersigned, are
not assuming, nor is the Company assuming, any of the undersigned?s
responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the
rules and regulations thereunder.
      This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until
the undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 4 and 5 with respect
to the undersigned?s holdings of, and transactions in, securities issued
by the Company, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed
writing.  This Power of Attorney shall be deemed to supersede and replace
in its entirety, and to revoke all authority granted by, any power of
attorney granted by the undersigned prior to the date hereof with respect
to the subject matter hereof, effective as of the date hereof.
      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney
to be executed as of this 9th day of December, 2020.
