Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

The Williams Companies, Inc. ("Williams") amends its Form 8-K filed June 25, 2008, in which it announced that it has increased its consolidated segment profit and earnings per share guidance for 2008 and 2009. In Exhibit 99.1, the press release headlined Williams Announces 34% Increase in 2008 Earnings Guidance, Williams incorrectly referred to the company’s guidance for natural gas liquids (NGL) pricing in barrels, rather than in gallons.

The corrected sentences are located in the fifth and sixth paragraphs and should read as follows:

For 2008, the company now expects average natural gas liquids (NGL) margins of 57 to 68 cents per gallon, up from previous guidance of 42 to 53 cents.

For 2009, the company now expects average NGL margins of 43 to 71 cents per gallon, up from previous guidance of 34 to 55 cents.

On June 26, 2008, Williams issued a press release correcting the error. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A and is incorporated herein. The press release is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01, Regulation FD Disclosure. The information furnished is not deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is not subject to the liabilities of that section and is not deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
