HALLIBURTON BOOSTS INTEGRATED SOLUTIONS OFFERINGS
Oil Services Company Combines Business Units to Better Serve Customers
Dallas, Texas--- Halliburton Company (NYSE: HAL) announced today that its
Halliburton Energy Services' Integrated Solutions operations and the Halliburton
Energy Development (HED) business unit are being combined. They will now operate
as part of Halliburton Energy Services (HES). This move is part of a three-year
initiative to integrate the diverse businesses of the company.
In 1996 Halliburton began to develop a lifecycle of the field integration
process that takes advantage of its unique capabilities to integrate services
together from the reservoir (HES and Landmark Graphics) to offshore facilities
(Brown & Root Energy Services) to downstream facilities (Kellogg Brown & Root).
HED was set up to facilitate the commercial development and project management
processes necessary to make these projects successful for its customers.
"We recognized at Halliburton that no participant in our industry could offer
this breadth of integrated services to our customers," said Dick Cheney,
Halliburton Chief Executive Officer. "With the merger of Halliburton Company and
Dresser Industries, this lifecycle development process has matured to the point
where I believe the skills to integrate all of our capabilities across the
Company now exists within the business units."
HES will use the combined resources and experience it has gained as market
leader in this area to continue to aggressively pursue its strategy of providing
integrated solutions offerings to its customers through creative commercial
arrangements and unique risk/reward sharing.
"The fact that we have reached this point in our organizational capabilities is
a tribute to all of the employees of HES, Landmark Graphics, BRES and HED," said
Halliburton President and Chief Operating Officer Dave Lesar. "The industry is
going through tough times right now, but we have the right team to succeed in
this market and to continue to add exceptional value for our customers. "
Founded in 1919, Halliburton Company is the world's leading diversified energy
services, engineering, construction, maintenance, and energy equipment company.
