	MIPC/MMNK: I.Makarov -- ITERA, one of the biggest gas suppliers in CIS
		Itera plans to produce, before the end of 2000, 20 billion cubic meters of gas; its output last year amounted to 7 billion cubic meters of gas.
		Itera's record in the area of gas production shows that today private businesses are capable of investing considerable amounts of money in the development of new middle-sized and small fields, which are often characterized by low production rates.
		Itera's activities in the Russian gas market are in conformity with the demands of the Ministry for the Anti - Monopoly Policy, aimed at restricting operation of natural monopolies, and correspond to the provisions of the European Energy Charter.

	Gazprom-Itera Ties Come Under Scrutiny

	Weldon’s Itera ties long known (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Itera had fallen under scrutiny at the time for its ties to Gazprom, Russia’s state-owned natural gas giant, but its congressional clout remained strong, with help from Weldon and his daughter, Karen, whose public relations firm signed a $500,000 contract with Itera four months after the 2002 trip.
		Itera is facing new questions this week after federal agents raided the company’s Florida office as well as the homes of Karen Weldon and Charles Sexton, her business partner and a longtime adviser to the embattled ten-term Republican, locked in the toughest re-election fight of his career.
		Brown said she was “really surprised by the nature of the investigation” of Weldon’s links with Itera and two other foreign clients of his daughter, which Brown said she first heard of through news reports this week.

		Itera officials heatedly denied ever overstepping the bounds of corporate ethics, saying the allegations of improper transactions came from competitors.

	The Four Hundred--Thoma Cressey Strikes Again: Buys iTera to Merge with Vision Solutions
		The merger of these two companies is something that has been on the minds of the top brass of these two companies for many years, according to sources, but it took a private equity firm's deep pockets to broker a truce between these two fiercely competitive HA software providers.
		NeVille, who is president and CEO of iTera, says that the company did $6 million in business on these products alone in the first couple of years, and then reinvested $2 million in profits from those sales back into the development of the Echo2 HA product.
		The iTera brand is strong in North America, and so the Vision Orion HA software will be rebranded with the iTera name; so will the iTera Echo2 HA product.

		Itera had grown into a multibillion-dollar gas company in just a few years after the Soviet collapse through barter and asset-transfer deals with Gazprom, and investors began wondering whether Gazprom executives were secretly benefiting - an allegation that Makarov has vociferously denied.

		Itera's goal was not simply restoring the grant, which was minuscule compared with its estimated $3 billion in revenue at the time, according to Korchemkin, the industry analyst.

	RADIO FREE EUROPE/ RADIO LIBERTY
		Analysts are divided over whether the decision will spell serious competition for Itera, the mysterious private firm that has grown to dominate the CIS gas trade since it started dealing with Turkmenistan in 1994.
		Some believe that Itera has become so entrenched in the business that it will be hard to replace, though it got its business from Gazprom in the first place.
		A greater question is why Miller has taken a year to raise the Itera issue or to renew direct trade with markets that reliably pay their bills.
