                     KELLOGG BROWN & ROOT TEAM WILL EXECUTE
                   MAJOR EXPANSION OF LNG FACILITY IN MALAYSIA

            Facility will be largest single LNG complex in the world,
             producing approximately 23 million metric tons per year


DALLAS,  Texas - A Kellogg Brown & Root  consortium has been awarded a U.S. $1.5
billion,  lump sum  contract by Malaysia  LNG TIGA Sdn.  Bhd. to execute a major
expansion of the liquefied natural gas (LNG) complex in Bintulu,  Sarawak.  When
complete, the Malaysian complex will be the largest LNG facility in the world.
         The  consortium  includes  Kellogg  Brown & Root  and  JGC Corporation,
together  with Sime Engineering Sdn.  Bhd. of Malaysia,  Kellogg (Malaysia) Sdn.
Bhd. and JGC (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd.
         The  scope  of  work  for  MLNG  Tiga  includes  design,   procurement,
construction,  and commissioning of two LNG trains and offsite  facilities to be
added to the  existing  six-train  facility.  MLNG Tiga  will have a  production
capacity of up to 3.8 million metric tons per train per year.  Feedstock for the
trains,  which liquefy natural gas for storage, is the natural gas from reserves
some 100 km off Bintulu.  The LNG will be shipped via  supertankers  to existing
and new LNG buyers, where it will be regasified and piped to customers.

MALAYSIA\2
         MLNG Tiga is the second major expansion of the MLNG complex. It will be
constructed adjacent to the original three-train MLNG plant,  completed in 1983,
and the three-train  MLNG Dua plant,  completed in 1995, by a M.W.  Kellogg (now
Kellogg  Brown & Root)/ JGC  consortium.  The combined  capacity of the MLNG and
MLNG Dua  facilities  is 15.8 million  metric tons per year.  Completion of MLNG
Tiga will rank the LNG facility as the world's largest single LNG complex,  with
a total production capacity of 23 million metric tons per year.
         The first train is scheduled for  completion  during the fourth quarter
of 2002,  and the second  train is  scheduled  for  completion  during the third
quarter of 2003.  Engineering  and  procurement for the project will be executed
from joint venture offices in Yokohama and Kuala Lumpur.
         Safety,  quality  and  maximizing  Malaysian  participation  have  been
identified as critical  success  factors.  Malaysian  resources and products are
expected to account for at least 30 percent of the project.
         In each  phase,  this LNG  complex  has  incorporated  state-of-the-art
technologies,  featuring  air-cooling  throughout the facilities,  employment of
very  large gas  turbines,  and a  high-efficiency  design  that  maximizes  the
utilization of the turbine's power.
         "We are proud to continue  our work with  Petronas  and its partners in
building  the world's  largest LNG  facility,"  said Dave  Lesar,  president  of
Halliburton Co.
         "This win extends our track  record in the LNG market and  demonstrates
our  ability to team with our  partners in  bringing  world  class  engineering,
construction,  and  project  execution  skills to complex  projects,"  said Jack
Stanley,  president,  Kellogg Brown & Root. "Our client's  satisfaction with our
original  performance  in building the MLNG complex,  coupled with our technical
capability, helped us win this major expansion contract."
