>> We’re building a faster, smarter, more
nimble, integrated and responsive 
company ... a big company moving, reacting 
and responding like a small one.

dear fellow shareholders,
Employee motivation has a direct
bearing on financial results. With 
$13 billion in revenue, 2001 was a good
year for Halliburton, and I’d like to
thank the management team and our
highly motivated workforce for their
contributions that help continue to
position Halliburton as one of the best,
most focused and innovative service
companies in the world. 

The pressures facing Halliburton’s

customers are among our biggest
challenges. What drives the oil and gas
industry is the same today as it will
always be. Our customers have to 
find and replace the oil and gas they 
produce every year. They have to do it
from increasingly remote and hostile
locations, and they have to bring it to
market at a cost that’s commercially 
and politically acceptable.

past three years. These types of
opportunities do not come along every
day. Continuing this pace of external
investment depends on our ability to
identify and acquire new technologies
that will create value to our shareholders.
Halliburton’s technology investment
will ensure that we increase production,
increase reserves, decrease capital and
operating costs, reduce uncertainty and
improve productivity for our customers. 

Our Energy Services Group ended

The future performance of Halliburton

The technology challenge for our

2001 with record operating income
while our Engineering & Construction
Group, Halliburton KBR, exceeded its
revenue and margin commitments and
continues to be awarded quality jobs 
on terms that should enhance future
returns on capital. 

Within the Energy Services Group,
both Landmark Graphics and Halliburton
Energy Services had excellent results,
despite the decline in rig activity in the
United States toward the end of the year.
Both businesses benefited from their
strong international presence and broad
suite of products and services. 

strongly depends on technology. In
2001, Halliburton spent just under $300
million on technologies aimed at our
existing businesses and product lines.
We plan to continue our technology
spending at approximately this rate
in 2002.

In addition, we are prepared to make
equity investments in technologies that
are attractive in the marketplace to either
expand our current portfolio or to create
entirely new businesses. This type of
investment is not new to our Company;
Halliburton has spent almost $600
million on external technology over the

industry is immense. Most of the
promising reservoirs our customers
pursue today are in deeper and deeper
water. Today, we are drilling wells more
than 25,000 feet into the earth in over
10,000 feet of water. Developing oil 
and gas resources in deep water requires
extraordinary technology.

As well as investing in deepwater and

data-management technologies, we’re
strengthening our focus on Real Time
Reservoir SolutionsSM (RTRS). This
means dramatically improving the speed
and quality of decisions needed to
develop the reservoir. We do this by

3

providing accurate, instant information
from wells and surface-production
systems. Teams observing the data use
it to make timely reservoir management
decisions during operations. This is
changing the way our customers manage
production. Geology, engineering and
facilities design processes are becoming
integrated. Customers will be able to
manage their facilities, their maintenance,
and their safety and environmental
compliance from operational control
centers. Specialists will be able to
monitor and direct well-site operations
for multiple fields from a visualization
room mounted on a single platform.
So, Halliburton is investing in the
future. We will have the substantial
technological prowess needed for the
industry’s longer-term challenges. 
For several years, the finding and
development costs of the global energy
industry were declining; now they’re 
on the rise again. Our technology is
changing the business processes in well
construction, well production and asset
management. Within a short time, we
believe our technologies will help cut
well construction costs by 50 percent.

Also of fundamental importance to 

our prosperity is management of the
Halliburton brand. If our brand is more
trusted, relied upon and stronger than
the competition’s, we will generate

superior results. In the fourth quarter of
2001, we launched a brand alignment
and positioning program. This followed a
comprehensive, globally researched
brand identity program carried out to
effectively position Halliburton for the
future. Despite the emotion felt in
different parts of the organization, this
was an important evolution for the
Company. The name “Halliburton” is
synonymous with quality, trust, integrity
and technology. The initiative enhances
those qualities while respecting the rich
heritage of our founding fathers, Erle P.
Halliburton, George and Herman Brown,
Solomon Dresser and Morris W. Kellogg.
Our success in business also requires 

a commitment to social citizenship,
business ethics and corporate perspective.
This includes having respect for the
environment, concern for employee
safety and welfare, and giving back to
the communities in which we work. I
can’t overemphasize the importance of
Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) 
to our Company’s operations. The health
and safety of employees, and those 
we work with, is vital. HSE is one of 
our core values, and it will never be
sacrificed in the name of profits. 
Investing in the future means

different things in different parts of the
world. In developing countries, it may
mean providing opportunities for

training and employment or employees
volunteering time to help build schools
and hospitals. It certainly includes a
willingness to balance the demand for
short-term profits with the resources we
need for success in the future. As CEO
of Halliburton, I believe one of my
responsibilities is to set the tone for our
Company’s commitment to the right
social responsibility and to help us find a
way to balance these obligations with 
the demands of our shareholders.

One of the most wonderful aspects of

our Company, and one of our great
challenges, is our diversity. With 85,000
employees, working in about 400
locations in more than 100 countries,
when I walk the corridors of any
Halliburton facility, I am pleased to see
employees of every race, culture and
religion, and hear the languages of
almost every nation. I also see the pride
and the connection our employees have
to their country, to our Company,
customers and partners.

The terrorist attacks on the United
States in September 2001 touched us all
in different ways. I am very proud of the
way Halliburton employees around the
world rallied in support of the victims.
The impact of 9/11 on the corporate
world has been huge in the short term,
but I believe long-term prospects for the
worldwide economy remain bright,

minutes, and distance is no longer a factor.

particularly for our industry sector.

The Halliburton stock price dropped
precipitously toward the end of the year.
There were several reasons for the drop.
First, there was overall uneasiness about
the U.S. and global economies and the
negative impact on oil and gas prices,
and the tragic events of 9/11 heightened
those concerns. But the main reason 
was reaction to several sizable asbestos-
related jury verdicts against the
Company. The lawsuits relate mainly 
to products manufactured by various
divisions of Dresser Inc. and past
operations of Brown & Root. The
largest category of claims relates to
Harbison-Walker, a refractory company
that Dresser spun off in 1992. 

Although we’ve worked hard to
explain our strategy, it’s likely that the
investment community will continue to
express concern about our asbestos-
related activities in the face of softening
fundamentals in the oilfield services
industry. We take the issue very
seriously and understand the concerns
our shareholders have. Asbestos
litigation is a U.S. national problem –
many companies are affected – and the
civil justice system is producing uneven
and inequitable results. We believe
asbestos litigation needs serious review
by Congress. In the meantime, the
Company has substantial insurance, we

continue to pursue what I believe is 
the right litigation strategy, and we are
conducting a vigorous defense of
asbestos lawsuits. 

While these issues have had a
negative impact on our share price in
the near term, we will continue to work
through this problem without losing
sight of our strong global market
position and our underlying corporate
strategy. We will continue to invest in
the people, equipment and technologies
that we believe will make us successful.
Our businesses are strong and healthy,
and our financial disclosure is accurate
and complete.

While the global economic slowdown
has hurt the demand for hydrocarbons,
the fundamental nature of our industry
has not changed. We are driven by supply
and demand. Energy prices are cyclical,
our business is cyclical, and we have to
deal with the current downturn as best
we can. Halliburton has a strong history
of performance that helps us ride through
weak periods. We continue to introduce
new technologies that will give us a
competitive advantage even in the face of
soft demand. We’re always looking for
innovative business relationships that will
keep us working and keep our customers
developing, in spite of short-term price
fluctuations. Steering a course through
price swings is one of the great

management challenges in our business.
How well we succeed is an indicator of
our overall management quality.

We can count on one thing. Our
industry will always be affected by
world events and economics. None of
our technologies will change that, and
none of them are short-term solutions.
They require heavy investment, and
they demand that we change the way
we think and work. We must pursue 
the technologies that are best for our
Company and our industry tomorrow,
next year and for the next generation.
By most measures, and certainly 
in light of current industry conditions, 
we have completed an excellent year.
The full year’s earnings from continuing
operations exceed all prior years
combined since the Dresser merger. 
We are very well positioned for “through
the cycle” revenues and earnings, 
with almost $10 billion in backlog and
industry-leading people, technology,
products and services.

population growth, technology and the Internet, our
entire society is in a time of rapid and fundamental
transformation unlike anything the world has seen. 
In businesses everywhere, new priorities are emerging.

Reduced cycle time. Greater speed to market. Just-
in-time manufacturing. Real time solutions to real
business issues. 

Exactly what is real time? Simply put, it’s exceptional

responsiveness within the shortest possible lapse 
of time. When this occurs, customer expectations are
satisfied instantaneously.

Today, Halliburton is harnessing its vast resources,

innovative technology and unmatched capabilities 
to deliver the kind of products, services and solutions
our customers need – when they need them. While 
we have the vast resources of a big company, we act like
a small one – flexible, innovative, responsive, speedy
and trustworthy. A company that responds quickly to 
a real time business culture. 

real time and halliburton
The oil and gas industry has always been a volatile
business. Skyrocketing prices. Precipitous declines.
Companies scrambling to compete. Only now the stakes
are even higher. Because costs are higher today, risks
of exploration and development are greater and demands
for return on capital are louder. Not only do companies
have to be smart in managing their businesses, they also
have to make timely decisions. And that takes knowledge.
In the face of these challenges, Halliburton has created

a new way of thinking and working and delivering
value called Real Time Reservoir SolutionsSM (RTRS).
More than just technology, RTRS is a network of people,

speed delivery. And bringing it all together – the global
HalLinkSM communications network, one of several
connection options. As data travels from sensing devices 
in the reservoir to 3-D visualization and interpretation 
at the customer’s office or to any point on the globe,
virtual teams of experts view the same real time
operations and data, sharing knowledge and solving
problems instantly. 

Our leading-edge technologies are backed by

applications that accurately and automatically capture
job data. This data is then processed, displayed, analyzed
and used to improve decision making and collect
best practices so that we can leverage the full scope
of Halliburton’s global resources.

Real Time Operations (RTO), one of the components

of RTRS, has quickly become a way of life for most 
of our products and services. In 2001, Halliburton’s
leading-edge technologies, including RTO, helped us
achieve record safety, quality, productivity and cost
milestones in the Gulf of Mexico. 

And we continue to add to our capabilities. The
addition of Magic Earth – a leading real time 3-D volume
visualization and interpretation company – to Halliburton’s
Landmark Graphics Corporation significantly enhances
the technologies provided to visualize and interpret
ever-larger amounts of seismic data. With Landmark’s
acquisition of PGS Data Management Division and
PetroBank, we are emerging as the industry’s premier
data and application service provider. Exploration and
production companies now have 24-hour, Web-based
access to huge volumes of exploration and production
data worldwide.

The point is, as our customers continue to seek new

ways to reduce cycle times, lower costs, minimize risks
and, most important, extract the full value of the reservoir,

Halliburton will be there with them, offering unmatched
knowledge and reservoir solutions in real time.

real time and halliburton kbr
Around the world, Halliburton KBR is known for its
exceptional ability to design, engineer, mobilize,
construct and manage the most challenging projects
anywhere. Whether it’s building the $800 million Alice
Springs-to-Darwin railroad through more than 800 
miles of Australia’s rugged Outback, constructing a
liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant in a remote part of
the island of Borneo or supporting U.S. troops in Bosnia,
Halliburton KBR delivers. 

At Halliburton KBR, real time means doing what it

takes to carry out a project successfully, no matter 
how complex or how inflexible the deadline. Which is
why for years the United States, United Kingdom 
and Australian governments have entrusted Halliburton
KBR with key pieces of their national agendas, from
homeland defense to military readiness to eliminating
weapons of mass destruction in the former Soviet Union.

Every day, we challenge ourselves to discover smarter,

faster ways of working. One way this is happening is
using our 3-D modeling tools to automate part of the
front-end engineering process. Since 80 percent of all
project costs are determined in the front end, investing
time and technology during this critical phase trims
significant amounts of time and money.

And Halliburton KBR design offices, workshops,
fabrication yards and construction sites across the globe
can be mobilized at a moment’s notice 24 hours a day
to deliver timely solutions under difficult conditions
and demanding schedules.

innovations in project and execution to developing
proprietary process technologies, we’re helping our
customers compete and grow and perform.

Already one of the world’s largest suppliers of offshore

production facilities, Halliburton KBR has acquired
GVA Consultants (GVAC), an industry-leading designer
and constructor of semi-submersibles. GVAC, with
assistance from Halliburton KBR, is now designing the
largest steel semi-submersible production and drilling
unit in the world. It will operate in one of the Gulf 
of Mexico’s ultra-deepwater fields. With GVAC,
Halliburton KBR is the unmatched single source for 
these production platforms. 

feedstock. Not only is KRES technology efficient, it 
is environmentally benign, reducing carbon dioxide
and other harmful emissions. KRES technology will be
used in an ammonia plant revamp in the earth’s most
populous country, the People’s Republic of China, where
environmental issues have taken on great importance. 
Our Selective Cracking Optimum Recovery, or SCORE™,

technology for ethylene production is another recent
innovation. Combining ExxonMobil technology with 
our own, SCORE™ technology produces higher ethylene
yields at lower capital costs. In Saudi Arabia, a plant 
is being built using SCORE™ technology, the first for
this petrochemical-rich region.

Through greater efficiencies in the engineering of

From developing cleaner, more efficient and 

large LNG plants, we’re helping customers exploit
previously inaccessible natural gas reserves. With
demand for natural gas rising, and many large reserves
waiting to be developed, LNG is growing in importance
to the energy industry. And Halliburton is the preferred
provider, building two-thirds of the world’s grassroots
facilities. In 2001, we won contracts to design and
build the foremost LNG facilities, including a $1 billion
LNG project in Egypt; trains four and five for Bonny
Island, Nigeria; and the Guangdong LNG receiving
terminal in southern China. 

How to do more with less? That’s the question our

customers are asking these days. Less money, finite
natural resources, limited time. At the Halliburton KBR
Technology Center in Houston, Texas, we are finding
the answers in breakthrough process technologies for
chemicals, petrochemicals, refining and fertilizers.

A case in point is our revolutionary KRES (Halliburton

KBR’s Reforming Exchanger System) technology. In
the ammonia production process, KRES uses process heat
instead of direct combustion to convert the natural gas

cost-effective processing technology to creating next-
generation fuels, Halliburton KBR is determining
where the industry needs to go and leading it there.

future time
The Company now known as Halliburton began in 1919 
when Erle P. Halliburton started his New Method Oil Well
Cementing Company with his revolutionary cement jet mixer. 
So it could fairly be said that innovation is in our DNA.

Today, Halliburton holds approximately 2,000 U.S. patents

and more than 1,950 international patents. At our
technology centers in Carrollton, Texas; Dallas, Texas;
Duncan, Oklahoma; Houston, Texas; Malvern,
Pennsylvania; Nisku, Canada; Tewkesbury, U.K.; and

creating new business models and restructuring relationships.
As the cost of doing business escalates, customers 
are relying on Halliburton to contribute research and
development and decision support. We’re experiencing
this at Halliburton Energy Services and Landmark Graphics,
where collaborative relationships are yielding products
and services that transcend individual capabilities.
In the future, there will be even more of these
opportunities. Technology suppliers and reservoir
knowledge companies will become virtual branch
operations of oil and gas organizations in order to speed
development, share resources and lower costs. 

Halliburton is a major participant in consortiums that

are working to develop the common industry
standards that will facilitate such relationships. This
commitment is nothing new. Landmark Graphics’
openness in publishing and sharing its data model 
has long been considered an industry best practice.

Ultimately, many of the emergent upstream technologies,

processes and solutions will come together in the next-
generation oilfield. It goes under a variety of names:
field of the future, smart field, e-field. By any name, it is
digital, fully instrumented wells and fields controlled
from a single visualization center and ready for monitoring
on day one from anywhere in the world. In other words,
Real Time Reservoir SolutionsSM for the life of the field.
And it’s coming fast. Halliburton Energy Services’ sensor
technology and advanced telemetry systems, combined

with Landmark’s DecisionSpace™ technology, provide a
fully integrated approach and an improved method for
risk evaluation and optimization of E&P assets. These
technologies are among the building blocks.

Halliburton’s new adaptive field-development platform

further extends the avenues for collaboration. Our
integrated applications are allowing multi-discipline
surface and subsurface teams to work together from 
a project’s outset, sharing knowledge, making better, faster
decisions and maximizing the economic recovery of 
the reservoir. 

The future that Halliburton envisions is an exciting

one. We are extending the full range of our services,
from surface to subsurface, to help our customers develop
smart, timely and flexible business strategies. 

We’ll see Halliburton and its suppliers and customers

contributing much more to detailed designs. We’ll see
an unprecedented exchange of information resulting from
partners having jointly invested in compatible systems,
portals and protocols. And we’ll see projects being worked
on 24 hours a day in virtual reality. 

In an interconnected environment, obstacles presented

by harsh or sensitive environments will no longer exist
for key knowledge workers. We will dissolve the barriers of time
zones, geography and physical limitations. The only things
we’ll need to consider will be our technologies and our
customers’ and employees’ experience and knowledge.

real time knowledge
More than equipment or products or capital assets,
Halliburton’s greatest wealth is its immense storehouse
of knowledge. Not just the intellectual property housed
in its information systems, but the intellectual capital
residing within its people. Halliburton employees have
the hard-earned wisdom that comes from working in
many diverse environments, complex and unique
situations, confronting all manner of challenges and
solving them.

R e a l T i m e R e s p o n s e

Over the last two decades, our industry has been losing

its experienced personnel to retirement, and through
the migration of workers to other industries. That’s why
Halliburton is finding ways to compress the learning cycle,
revolutionize work processes and help our employees
make the best, most fully informed decisions for our
customers in a shorter period of time.

In Halliburton, a Knowledge Management Group sets

up a system to make sure that employees have the
information they need. One way is through communities
of knowledge, groups that are created to share
information about a particular task or a critical business
matter. Employees designated as knowledge brokers
support the community, finding subject-matter experts
and recording their insights and solutions. This
knowledge is then stored so that it can be tapped as
needed to use in other situations. 

Today, Halliburton’s new Web-based learning-management

system contains more than 700 active courses and
400,000 training history records. This system enables us
to launch e-learning, virtual classrooms and on-line
interactive equipment simulators in a real time
environment, not only to train our employees on our
existing technology but also to help them leverage
our emerging technologies.

By sharing the knowledge we have gained

throughout the world in virtually every phase of the 
oil and gas life cycle, Halliburton is providing its
customers with better, more cost-effective solutions.
This is perhaps most visible in Halliburton’s global
deepwater projects where knowledge communities,
consisting of local solutions teams and global mirror
teams, operate simultaneously. 

During one ultra-deepwater project, a team

encountered difficulties in gravel packing a horizontal

“Real Time is infinite productivity that comes 

from leveraging time zones, technologies, the 
supply chain and, most of all, our human 
resources. It’s what’s between the ears of our 
people that makes all the difference.”

well. While engineers began looking for the cause 
of the problem, the team sent an alert to other mirror
teams. In Brunei, a team discovered that the same
conditions had been present in two unexplained failures,
helping to narrow the engineers’ investigations.
Meanwhile, a team in Brazil was just beginning a similar
type of well. Warned of the issue in time, the team 
was able to avoid failure and save the customer hundreds
of thousands of dollars. And Halliburton then used 
its lessons learned to improve its processes. 

Halliburton KBR is committed to extending its industry
leadership to the next generation. The Impact Group, an
organization for young engineers, combines professional
development activities and a mentoring program that pairs
its members with seasoned engineers. These mentors
are helping new engineers establish a long-term career-
development plan and plot the course that will take
them where they can be successful. 

With more than 80 years in business, Halliburton is a

living organization. By employing these initiatives, 
and many more like them, we will continue to be a
learning one for our customers and employees. 

solutions for our times
If you truly want to understand an organization, look
first at what it believes. At Halliburton, we are committed
to technological leadership, operational excellence,
innovative business relationships and a dynamic workforce.
Just as important, we are highly committed to being
accountable for the safety and well-being of our employees,
the environment and the communities where we work.
Reflected in our Code of Business Conduct, it’s also
the way we live and conduct our daily business.

This commitment takes many forms. It’s in something
as simple as beginning each meeting around the world
with a safety message. It’s also in Halliburton’s list of
global Health, Safety & Environment standards describing
the minimum level of acceptable performance for
everything from basic safety and environmental practices
to ergonomics and administrative requirements. We 
regard these standards as a starting point, and we continually
strive to exceed them.

>> Halliburton people make a difference.

We also believe in contributing to society. With a

growing demand to respond to world disasters,
Halliburton is often called on to deliver solutions to
headline-making events. Following the attack on 
U.S. embassies in Africa and later on the USS Cole in
Yemen, we improved facility security at embassies
around the world and at military ports in the U.S.  

age, nationality and language. Being truly global requires
that our employees be a mix of cultures, backgrounds
and nationalities. 

We’re committed to education. Whether it’s funding

post-graduate research programs in Scotland, helping
school kids with science and technical projects or putting
future engineers through college, Halliburton is helping
to broaden the possibilities for young people everywhere. 

Our contributions also happen on a more personal level.

We’re committed to helping those who need it 

When flash floods in Luanda, Angola, killed several
people and left thousands homeless, Halliburton employees
joined forces with customers and competitors to pump
approximately one million barrels of stagnant water from
affected areas. And this past year in Kosovo, Halliburton
employees provided funds for 22 playgrounds in communities,
towns and villages.

All this comes from something Halliburton established

in the beginning, a basic creed for how we conduct
ourselves wherever we work. It includes respect for others
and the belief that a company’s success should be measured
by higher standards than its business accomplishments.

At Halliburton, we’re strongly committed to diversity,

not just in race and gender, but in culture, religion,

most. In Bosnia, Halliburton provides jobs for war widows.
These jobs help support the peace-keeping mission. 
In West Africa, we’re hiring and training local residents
as subcontractors, vendors and suppliers. We believe 
in helping people by providing them with the means to
help themselves. 

At an even more basic level, Halliburton-sponsored
health-education classes are improving the quality of life in
the world’s poorest regions. In fact, almost anywhere
you find a Halliburton employee, you’ll hear stories just
like these. Because, as a leader in energy services and
engineering and construction, we know that every day
brings opportunities for transformation. And in a world
as challenging and as fast moving as ours, the need to

2001  halliburton annual  report

In this section, we discuss the operating results and general
financial condition of Halliburton Company and its
subsidiaries. We explain:

• factors and risks that impact our business;
• why our earnings and expenses for the year 2001 

differ from the year 2000 and why our earnings and
expenses for 2000 differ from 1999;

• capital expenditures;
• factors that impacted our cash flows; and
• other items that materially affect our financial

condition or earnings.

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
Our business is organized around two business segments:

• Energy Services Group; and
• Engineering and Construction Group.

We currently operate in over 100 countries throughout
the world, providing a comprehensive range of discrete and
integrated products and services to the energy industry, and
to other industrial and governmental customers. The majority
of our consolidated revenues is derived from the sale of
services and products, including engineering and construction
activities, to large oil and gas companies. These services and
products are used throughout the energy industry, from the
earliest phases of exploration and development of oil and
gas reserves through the refining and distribution process.
The industries we serve are highly competitive with

many substantial competitors for each segment. No country
other than the United States or the United Kingdom accounts
for more than 10% of our operations. Unsettled political
conditions, acts of terrorism, expropriation or other govern-
mental actions, exchange controls or currency devaluation
may result in increased business risk in any one country. We
believe the geographic diversification of our business activities
reduces the risk that loss of business in any one country
would be material to our consolidated results of operations.

halliburton company
Spending on exploration and production activities and
investments in capital expenditures for refining and
distribution facilities by large oil and gas companies have a
significant impact on the activity levels within our two
business segments. Throughout the first part of 2001,
increased spending by large oil and gas companies contributed
to higher levels of worldwide drilling activity, especially gas
drilling in the United States. General business conditions
in the United States began to decline during the third quarter.
The events of September 11 accelerated a global economic

recession which in turn adversely impacted the energy
industry, particularly in the United States. Reduced demand
for aviation fuel and increasing natural gas storage levels, due
to weakened demand for industrial and residential natural
gas, resulted in significant decreases in North American oil
and natural gas drilling.

Although down, crude oil prices have remained above

threshold levels that our customers use to justify their
spending on capital and drilling projects. Generally, major oil
and gas field development projects, particularly deepwater
projects in the Gulf of Mexico, West Africa and Brazil as well
as downstream energy projects, have longer lead times. The
economics of these projects are based on longer-term
commodity prices. Once started, projects of this type are less
likely to be delayed due to fluctuating short-term prices.

We expect United States gas drilling activity to continue

declining into the second quarter of 2002 due to the slow
global economy and unseasonably warm winter. We expect
gas drilling activity to begin recovering in the latter part 
of the year. If prices for oil remain stable as compared to
year-end prices, we expect major oilfield development
projects to continue providing international opportunities.
Over the longer-term, we expect increased global demand
for oil and natural gas, additional customer spending to
replace depleting reserves and our continued technological
advances to provide growth opportunities for our products
and services.

energy services group
Strong natural gas and crude oil drilling activity during the
first nine months contributed to increased demand for the
products and services provided by the Energy Services Group.
Activity was especially strong in oilfield services within the
United States, reflecting increased levels of drilling for natural
gas. The rotary rig count in the United States continued to
increase throughout the first half of the year and averaged
1,206 rigs in the first nine months of 2001. This represents
an increase of 40% over the average for the first nine months
of 2000. In the United States drilling activity for gas remained
strong, posting a 44% increase over the average for the first
nine months of 2000. Henry Hub gas prices for the first nine
months of 2001 averaged $4.62/MCF as compared to
$3.54/MCF average for the first nine months of 2000.
Increases in international rig activity also continued through
the first nine months of 2001, up 19% compared to the first
nine months of 2000. All geographic regions experienced
higher activity levels, which allowed us to increase our
utilization of equipment and personnel. This higher
utilization resulted in better profitability and opportunities
to increase prices, especially within the United States.

25

2001  halliburton annual  report

M a n a g e m e n t ’ s   D i s c u s s i o n   a n d   A n a l y s i s

During the latter part of 2001, drilling activity within the

United States, primarily land-based gas rigs, began to
significantly decline. Henry Hub gas prices for the fourth
quarter of 2001 averaged $2.42/MCF, almost 50% lower
than the average for the first nine months of 2001. For the
month of December 2001, the United States natural gas rig
count averaged 754, down 100 rigs from December 2000
and down 304 rigs from the peak in July 2001. United States
rotary rig count for the fourth quarter of 2001 was down 19%
compared to third quarter of 2001 and down 6% compared to
the fourth quarter of 2000. At the same time, the international
rig count averaged 748 rigs for the fourth quarter of 2001
and was down 1% compared to the third quarter of 2001,
and increased 5% compared to the fourth quarter of 2000.
Natural gas prices for 2002 are expected to continue to be
weak in the first half of the year due to current high gas
storage levels, caused by an abnormally warm winter and a
slow economy in the United States, but then improve in
the second half of the year. Timing of the recovery of natural
gas prices, which will lead to increased drilling activity,
depends upon depletion of existing reserves and future gas
storage levels.

We expect oil prices to range between $17 and $22 per
barrel in 2002. We believe this range will support interna-
tional activity at or just below current levels. The outlook
for world oil demand growth is highly uncertain due to the
slowdown in the global economy and the length of the
recession in the United States. In 2002 worldwide exploration
and production spending is expected to decrease with most
of the decrease occurring in the United States and Canada.
We expect that recent declines in United States rig counts

and economic uncertainty within the United States will
result in short-term declines in revenues and operating
income within the segment. The price increases we
implemented in late 2000 and during 2001 combined with
our efforts to manage costs should partially offset lower
activity levels and pressures by competitors and customers
to increase discounts. The production enhancement product
service line, due to its dependence on United States gas
drilling, is expected to be significantly impacted by the current
slow down in natural gas drilling. Our drilling systems and
completion products product service lines have a large
percentage of their business outside the United States and
are also heavily involved in deepwater oil and gas develop-
ments. These product service lines are expected to remain
relatively strong.

engineering and construction group
Our Engineering and Construction Group did not benefit
from the positive factors which provided opportunities for
growth in the Energy Services Group in the first part of
2001. Both groups provide products and services to many of
the same customers. However, oilfield service activities,
especially land-based gas drilling activity in the United
States, is more short-term focused as compared to the long-
term nature of most major engineering and construction
projects. The downturn in the energy industry that began
in 1998 led our customers to severely curtail many large
engineering and construction projects during 2000 and into
2001. During this time, a series of mergers and consolidations
among our major customers also reduced our customers’
levels of investment in refining and distribution facilities as
they evaluated and maximized use of combined capacities.
Due to the lack of opportunities existing throughout 2000,
combined with an extremely competitive global engineering
and construction environment, we restructured our
Engineering and Construction Group in late 2000 and the
first quarter of 2001 to facilitate operational efficiencies and
reduce costs. Engineering, construction, fabrication, and
project management capabilities are now part of one operating
group – Halliburton KBR.

In the latter part of the third quarter and throughout the
fourth quarter of 2001 we saw a slowdown of the economy.
The current global economic slowdown is expected to last
until the second half of 2002. Soft demand in the first half
of 2002 will continue to delay energy related project awards,
or reduce the scope of existing projects, especially for olefins
and chemicals projects. Although slower economies and
lower oil and gas prices may delay some projects, we expect
an increasing need for security and government defense
and infrastructure projects. Worldwide tightening of sulfur
content in gasoline and diesel and other new environmental
regulations are likely to require changes in refinery configu-
rations and the addition of new process units in the
long-term. We remain optimistic about our opportunities in
liquefied natural gas and gas-to-liquids. Our optimism is
based on anticipated new projects as well as the front-end
engineering and initial work contracts for liquefied natural
gas projects we received in late 2001. We expect activity
levels within the Engineering and Construction Group to
remain about the same in 2002 as compared with 2001.
This expectation is based upon our:

• technologies and proven capabilities on complex projects;
• recent and pending project awards; and
• current backlog and prospects, especially for onshore

and government operations and infrastructure projects.

Consolidated revenues for 2001 were $13.0 billion, an
increase of 9% compared to 2000. International revenues
comprised 62% of total revenues in 2001 and 66% in 2000
as activity and pricing increased in our Energy Services
Group more rapidly in the United States particularly in the
first half of 2001. Our Engineering and Construction Group
revenues, which did not benefit from the positive factors
contributing to the growth of the Energy Services Group
decreased 16%. Engineering and construction projects are
long-term in nature and customers continue to delay major
projects with the slowdown in the economy occurring in
the latter part of 2001.

Energy Services Group revenues increased by $1.9 billion,
or 29%, in 2001 from 2000. International revenues were 58%
of the total segment revenues in 2001 compared to 62% in
2000. Revenues in 2001 from our oilfield services product
service lines were $6.8 billion. Our oilfield services product
service lines experienced revenue growth of 29% despite a
14% decline in oil prices and a 3% decrease in natural gas
prices between December 2000 and December 2001. The
revenue increase was primarily due to higher drilling activity
and pricing improvements, particularly in the United States.
Revenues increased across all product service lines and
geographic regions. Our pressure pumping product service
lines experienced growth of 34% in 2001 as compared to
2000. Logging, drilling services and drilling fluids revenues
increased approximately 28%, and drilling bit revenues were
19% higher in 2001 as compared to 2000. Completion
products revenues increased 13%. Logging and drilling
services revenues increases occurred primarily in the United
States, as the product service lines benefited from higher
prices and increased drilling activity. Geo-Pilot™ and other
new products introduced in the drilling services product
service line further contributed to the improved revenue in
2001. Drilling fluid revenues increased in 2001 with higher
activity levels in the Gulf of Mexico. Geographically, all
regions within the oilfield service product service lines
prospered with North America revenues increasing 37%
from 2000 to 2001. Pressure pumping revenues in North

America were 48% higher in 2001 as compared to 2000
primarily due to higher levels of drilling activity. Revenues
from Latin America increased 27% with significant increases
in Venezuela and Brazil. Europe/Africa and Middle East
revenues were about 20% higher in 2001 than 2000,
particularly in Russia and Egypt. Revenues for the remainder
of the segment of $1.9 billion increased by $400 million, or
27%, primarily due to a large multi-year project in Brazil
which began in the third quarter of 2000. Integrated
exploration and production information systems revenues
were higher by 19% partially due to the acquisition of PGS
Data Management as well as growth in software sales and
professional services.

Engineering and Construction Group revenues decreased
$844 million, or 16%, from 2000 to 2001. The decline is
primarily due to the completion of several large interna-
tional onshore and offshore projects which have not yet
been fully replaced with new project awards and delays in
start-ups of new projects. International revenues were
approximately 71% in 2001 as compared to 72% in 2000.
On a percentage basis, revenues declined about the same
inside and outside of North America. Revenues for the
Asia/Pacific region were down over 40% due to the effects
of completing two major projects, partially offset by a new
liquefied natural gas project and the start-up of construction
on a railway in Australia. In Europe/Africa, revenues were
down 6%. The decline was primarily due to the completion
of a major project in Norway and lower activity on the
logistical support contract in the Balkans which moved to the
sustainment phase in late 2000. The decline was partially
offset by increases in activities at our shipyard in the United
Kingdom. North American revenues declined in 2001
partially due to the completion of highway and paving
construction jobs and the baseball stadium in Houston.
These declines in North America were partially offset by a
slight increase in operations and maintenance revenues as
our customers focus on maintaining current facilities and
plant operations rather than adding new facilities.

Consolidated operating income increased $622 million,
or 135%, from 2000 to 2001. In 2000 our results of operations
include two significant items: an $88 million pretax gain on
the sale of marine vessels and a pretax charge of $36
million related to the restructuring of the engineering and
construction businesses. Excluding these items, operating
income increased by more than 160%.

Energy Services Group operating income increased $433

million, or 74%, in 2001 over 2000. Excluding the sale of
marine vessels, operating income increased more than 100%
compared to 2000. Increased operating income reflects
increased activity levels, higher equipment utilization and
improved pricing, particularly in the United States in the
first nine months of 2001. Our oilfield services product
service lines operating income in 2001 exceeded $1 billion,
more than double from 2000. Operating margins for our
oilfield services product service lines increased from 8.6%
in 2000 to 14.8% in 2001, resulting in an incremental margin
of 37%. Operating income was higher in 2001 as compared
to 2000 in all product service lines and geographic regions.
The largest increase was in pressure pumping in North
America, which rose by over 130%. Substantial increases in
operating income were also made in the logging, drilling
bits and drilling services product service lines. Operating
income in North America was higher by 78% in 2001 as
compared to 2000. International regions, particularly Latin
America and Europe/Africa, made significant improvements
in operating income. Excluding the sale of marine vessels
in 2000, operating income for the remainder of the segment
decreased $41 million, primarily due to lower operating
margins in our Surface/Subsea product service line and
revised profit estimates on a major project.

Engineering and Construction Group operating income
increased $185 million from 2000 to 2001. Operating margins
improved to 3.3% in 2001. This increase is primarily due to
the $167 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2000 as a
result of higher than estimated costs on specific jobs and
unfavorable claims negotiations on other jobs. We also
recorded a restructuring charge of $36 million in the fourth
quarter of 2000 related to the reorganization of the engineering
and construction businesses under Halliburton KBR.
Excluding these fourth quarter 2000 charges, operating
income decreased $18 million, or 11%, consistent with the
decline in revenues.

General corporate expenses were $74 million for 2001 as

compared to $78 million in 2000.

Interest expense of $147 million in 2001 was $1 million higher
than in 2000. Our outstanding short-term debt was substan-
tially higher in the first part of 2001 due to repurchases of
our common stock in the fourth quarter of 2000 under our
repurchase program and borrowings associated with the
acquisition of PGS Data Management in March 2001. Cash
proceeds of $1.27 billion received in April 2001 from the sale
of the remaining businesses within the Dresser Equipment
Group were used to repay our short-term borrowings; however,
our average borrowings for 2001 were slightly higher than in
2000. The impact of higher average borrowings was mostly
offset by lower interest rates on short-term borrowings.

Interest income was $27 million in 2001, an increase of $2

million from 2000.

Foreign currency losses were $10 million in 2001 as

compared to $5 million in 2000.

Other, net was a loss of $1 million in 2000 and less than

$1 million gain in 2001.

Provision for income taxes was $384 million for an effective

tax rate of 40.3% in 2001 compared to 38.5% in 2000.

Minority interest in net income of subsidiaries in 2001 was

$19 million as compared to $18 million in 2000.

Income (loss) from discontinued operations in 2001 was a
$42 million loss, or $0.10 per diluted share due to accrued
expenses associated with asbestos claims of disposed
businesses. See Note 3. The loss was partially offset by net
income for the first quarter of 2001 from Dresser Equipment
Group of $0.05 per diluted share. Income from discontinued
operations of $98 million, or $0.22 per diluted share,
represents the net income of Dresser Equipment Group for
the full year of 2000.

Gain on disposal of discontinued operations in 2001 was
$299 million after-tax, or $0.70 per diluted share. The 2001
gain resulted from the sale of our remaining businesses
within the Dresser Equipment Group in April 2001. The
gain of $215 million after-tax, or $0.48 per diluted share, in
2000 resulted from the sale of our 51% interest in Dresser-
Rand, formerly a part of Dresser Equipment Group, in
January 2000.

Cumulative effect of accounting change, net of $1 million

reflects the adoption of SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” in the first
quarter of 2001.

Net income for 2001 was $809 million, or $1.88 per diluted
share, as compared to net income of $501 million, or $1.12
per diluted share in 2000.

Consolidated revenues for 2000 were $11.9 billion, a
decrease of 3% from 1999 revenues of $12.3 billion. Lower
levels of Engineering and Construction Group revenues were
partially offset by increased oilfield services revenues within
the Energy Services Group, particularly in the United States.
International revenues were 66% of our consolidated revenues
in 2000, compared with 70% in 1999.

Energy Services Group revenues were $6.8 billion for 2000,

an increase of 14% from 1999 revenues of $5.9 billion.
International revenues were 62% of total segment revenues
in 2000 compared with 68% in 1999. Revenues for the group
were positively impacted in late 1999 and throughout 2000
by increased rig counts and customer spending, particularly
within North America, following increases in oil and gas
prices that began in 1999. After a slight seasonal decline in
the first quarter of 2000, revenues increased consecutively
each quarter across all product service lines throughout the
year. Revenues from our oilfield services product service
lines were $5.3 billion. Increased demand for natural gas
and increased drilling activity benefited our oilfield services
product service lines. The pressure pumping product service
line revenues increased 30% compared to 1999. The logging
product service line revenues increased 26% compared to
1999. Drilling fluids increased over 20%, while drill bits and
completion products service lines increased about 14%.
Drilling systems product service line revenues increased by
9%. Geographically, strong North American activity resulted
in revenue growth of 43%, with growth experienced across
all product service lines in that region compared to 1999.
North America generated 52% of total oilfield service product
service line revenues for 2000 compared to 44% in 1999.
Pressure pumping accounted for approximately 50% of the
increase in revenues within North America, reflecting higher
activity levels in all work areas, particularly the Gulf of
Mexico, South Texas, Canada, and Rocky Mountains.
Revenues increased by 16% in the Middle East region and
12% in the Latin America region compared to 1999.
Europe/Africa revenues were up slightly while revenues in
the Asia Pacific region declined by 3%. Activity was slower

to increase internationally throughout 2000 despite higher
oil and gas prices. The turnaround in international rig activity,
which started late in the second quarter of 2000, continued
into the fourth quarter of 2000 when international rig counts
reached the highest levels since late 1998. Revenues also
increased across all regions outside North America during
the fourth quarter of 2000, as customer spending for
exploration and production began to increase outside
North America.

Revenues from the remainder of the segment of $1.5 billion

decreased 7% compared to 1999. Lower revenues within
the Surface/Subsea product service lines were partially offset
by record revenues within the integrated exploration and
production information systems product service line which
increased 13% compared to 1999. Increases in software and
professional services revenues were partially offset by lower
hardware revenues, which have been de-emphasized. Software
sales contributed just over 19% in revenue growth, while
professional services increased over 7% compared to 1999.
Engineering and Construction Group revenues were
$5.2 billion for 2000, down 19% from $6.4 billion in 1999.
Higher oil and gas prices during 2000 did not translate into
customers proceeding with new awards of large downstream
projects. Many other large projects, primarily gas and liquefied
natural gas projects, were also delayed, continuing a trend
that started in 1999. Revenues in 1999 benefited from
increased logistics support services to military peacekeeping
efforts in the Balkans and increased activities at the
Devonport Dockyard in the United Kingdom. The logistics
support services to military peacekeeping efforts in the
Balkans peaked in the fourth quarter of 1999 as the main
construction and procurement phases of the contract were
completed. These increases partially offset lower revenues
from onshore and offshore engineering and construction
projects, particularly major projects in Europe and Africa,
which were winding down.

Consolidated operating income was $462 million for 2000

compared to $401 million for 1999. Engineering and
Construction segment results include restructuring charges

M a n a g e m e n t ’ s   D i s c u s s i o n   a n d   A n a l y s i s

of $36 million in 2000 related to the restructuring of the
engineering and construction businesses. See Note 11.
Excluding the restructuring charge in 2000 and the special
credits of $47 million in 1999, operating income for 2000
increased by 41% from 1999.

Energy Services Group operating income in 2000 was 
$582 million, an increase of 133% from 1999 operating income
of $250 million. Operating margins were 8.6% in 2000, up
from 4.2% in 1999. Operating income from our oilfield
services product service lines was $452 million. During 2000,
strengthening North American drilling and oilfield activity
resulted in increased equipment utilization and improved
pricing within the oilfield services product service lines.
Pressure pumping operating income increased about 135%
compared to 1999 levels, while logging services operating
income increased by almost 170% compared to 1999. Drilling
fluids, drilling systems and completion products were
impacted by slow recovery in international activity. During
the fourth quarter of 2000, oilfield services recorded an
$8 million reversal of bad debts related to claims settled by
the United Nations against Iraq dating from the invasion of
Kuwait in 1990. Geographically, strong oil and gas prices
throughout 2000 led to higher levels of deepwater and
onshore gas drilling within North America. Activity increases
in the Gulf of Mexico, South Texas, Canada, and Rocky
Mountain work areas were greater than most other areas.
Operating income outside North America continued to lag
the performance noted within North America, reflecting
continued delays in international exploration and production
for oil and gas. However, fourth quarter 2000 operating
income increased across all international geographic regions
compared to the third quarter of 2000, reflecting increased
international spending by our customers.

Operating income in 2000 for the remainder of the
segment was $130 million. Operating income benefited in
2000 from a third quarter $88 million pretax gain on sale of
two semi-submersible vessels and one multipurpose
support vessel and increasing profitability in the integrated
exploration and production information systems product
service line. Excluding the gain of the sale of the vessels,
operating income declined in the Surface/Subsea product
service lines. Lower activity levels in the North Sea United
Kingdom sector and under-utilization of manufacturing and
subsea equipment and vessels, which carry large fixed
costs, were the primary factors for the decline in operating
income. Operating income from integrated exploration and
production information systems in 2000 increased almost
200% compared to 1999, reflecting higher software and
professional services revenues.

Engineering and Construction Group recorded an operating

loss for 2000 of $42 million compared to operating income
of $175 million in 1999, a decrease of 124%. The operating
margin was 2.7% in 1999. Operating margins in 2000
declined both internationally and in North America due to
losses on projects as a result of higher than estimated costs
on selected jobs and claims negotiations on other jobs not
progressing as anticipated. Given the number and technical
complexity of the engineering and construction projects we
perform, some project losses are normal occurrences.
However, the environment for negotiations with customers
on claims and change orders has become more difficult in
the past few years. This environment, combined with
performance issues on a few large, technically complex jobs,
contributed to unusually high job losses on large projects of
$171 million in 2000, including $167 million in the fourth
quarter. At the same time, the group recorded $36 million
of restructuring charges. Lower activity due to the trend in
delayed new projects, which continued through 2000, also
negatively impacted operating income. Operating income
in 1999 benefited from higher activity levels supporting
United States military peacekeeping efforts in the Balkans,
offset by reduced engineering and construction project profits
due to the timing of project awards and revenue recognition.

Special credits in 1999 are the result of a change in

estimate on some components of the 1998 special charges.
In the second quarter of 1999, we concluded that total costs,
particularly for severance and facility exit costs, were lower
than previously estimated. Therefore, we reversed $47 million
of the $959 million special charge that was originally recorded.
General corporate expenses for 2000 were $78 million, an
increase of $7 million from 1999. In 2000 general corporate
expenses increased primarily as a result of costs related to
the early retirement of our previous chairman and chief
executive officer.

nonoperating items
Interest expense was $146 million for 2000 compared to 
$141 million in 1999. Interest expense was up in 2000 due
to higher average interest rates on short-term borrowings and
additional short-term debt used to repurchase $759 million
of our common stock under our share repurchase program,
mostly during the fourth quarter of 2000. These increases
offset the benefits from our lower borrowings earlier in 2000
due to the use of the proceeds from the sale of Ingersoll-
Dresser Pump and Dresser-Rand to repay short-term debt.

M a n a g e m e n t ’ s   D i s c u s s i o n   a n d   A n a l y s i s

Interest income of $25 million in 2000 declined $49 million

from 1999. Interest income in 1999 included settlement of
income tax issues in the United States and United Kingdom
and imputed interest income on the note receivable from
the sale of our ownership in M-I L.L.C.

Foreign currency losses were $5 million in 2000, down from
a loss of $8 million in 1999. The losses in 2000 were primarily
in Asia Pacific currencies and the euro. Losses in 1999
occurred primarily in Russian and Latin American currencies.
Other, net was a net loss of $1 million in 2000 compared

to $19 million in 1999. The net loss in 1999 includes a
$26 million charge in the second quarter relating to an
impairment of Halliburton KBR’s net investment in Bufete
Industriale, S.A. de C.V., a large specialty engineering,
procurement and construction company in Mexico.

Provision for income taxes on continuing operations in
2000 was $129 million for an effective tax rate of 38.5%,
compared to 37.8% in 1999. Excluding our special charges
and related taxes, the effective rate was 38.8% in 1999.

Minority interest in net income of subsidiaries was $18

million in 2000 compared to $17 million in 1999.

Income from discontinued operations was $98 million in

2000 and $124 million in 1999.

Gain on disposal of discontinued operations resulting from
the sale of our 51% interest in Dresser-Rand was $215 million
after-tax or $0.48 per diluted share, in 2000. In 1999 we
recorded a gain on the sale of our 49% interest in Ingersoll-
Dresser Pump of $159 million after-tax, or $0.36 diluted share.
Cumulative effect of change in accounting method in 1999
of $19 million after-tax, or $0.04 per diluted share, reflects
our adoption of Statement of Position 98-5, “Reporting on
the Costs of Start-Up Activities.” See Note 12.

Net income was $501 million or $1.12 per diluted share, in

2000 and $438 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, in 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We ended 2001 with cash and equivalents of $290 million
compared with $231 million in 2000 and $466 million at the
end of 1999.

Cash flows from operating activities provided $1.0 billion

for 2001 compared to using $57 million in 2000 and using
$58 million in 1999. Working capital items, which include
receivables, inventories, accounts payable and other working
capital, net, used $50 million of cash in 2001 compared to
using $563 million in 2000 and providing $2 million in 1999.
Included in changes to working capital and other net changes
are special charge usage for personnel reductions, facility
closures, merger transaction costs, and integration costs of $6
million in 2001, $54 million in 2000 and $202 million in 1999.

Cash flows used in investing activities were $858 million
for 2001, $411 million for 2000 and $107 million for 1999.
Capital expenditures of $797 million in 2001 were about
38% higher than in 2000 and about 53% higher than in 1999.
Capital spending in 2001 was mostly directed to Halliburton
Energy Services, primarily for pressure pumping equipment,
directional drilling tools and logging-while-drilling equipment.
In March 2001 we acquired PGS Data Management division
of Petroleum Geo-Services ASA for $164 million cash. In
addition we spent $56 million for various acquisitions in 2001.
Cash flows from investing activities in 1999 include 
$254 million collected on the receivables from the sale of 
our 36% interest in M-I L.L.C. Imputed interest on this
receivable of $11 million is included in operating cash flows.
Cash flows from financing activities used $1.4 billion in
2001 and $584 million in 2000 and provided $189 million in
1999. Proceeds from exercises of stock options provided cash
flows of $27 million in 2001 compared to $105 million in
2000 and $49 million in 1999. Dividends to shareholders used
$215 million of cash in 2001 and $221 million in 1999 and
2000. We used the proceeds from the sale of the remaining
businesses in Dresser Equipment Group in April 2001, the
sale of Dresser-Rand in early 2000 and the collection of a
note from the fourth quarter 1999 sale of Ingersoll-Dresser
Pump received in early 2000 to reduce short-term debt. On
July 12, 2001, we issued $425 million in two and five year
medium-term notes under our medium-term note program.
The notes consist of $275 million of 6% fixed rate notes due
August 1, 2006 and $150 million of floating rate notes due
July 16, 2003. Net proceeds from the two medium-term note
offerings were also used to reduce short-term debt. Net
repayments of short-term debt in 2001 used $1.5 billion.
On April 25, 2000, our Board of Directors approved plans
to implement a share repurchase program for up to 44 million
shares. We repurchased 1.2 million shares at a cost of 
$25 million in 2001 and 20.4 million shares at a cost of
$759 million in 2000. We currently have no plan to
repurchase the remaining shares under the approved plan.
In addition, we repurchased $9 million of common stock in
2001 and $10 million in both 2000 and 1999 from employees
to settle their income tax liabilities primarily for restricted
stock lapses.

Cash flows from discontinued operations provided $1.3 billion
in 2001 as compared to $826 million in 2000 and $234 million
in 1999. Cash flows for 2001 include proceeds from the sale
of Dresser Equipment Group of approximately $1.27 billion.
Cash flows for 2000 include proceeds from the sale of
Dresser-Rand and Ingersoll-Dresser Pump of $913 million.

M a n a g e m e n t ’ s   D i s c u s s i o n   a n d   A n a l y s i s

Capital resources generally are derived from internally
generated cash flows and access to capital markets when
appropriate. Our combined short-term notes payable and
long-term debt was 24% of total capitalization at the end of
2001, 40% at the end of 2000, and 35% at the end of 1999.
Short-term debt was reduced significantly in the second
quarter of 2001 with the proceeds from the sale of
Dresser Equipment Group and in the third quarter from
the issuance of $425 million of medium-term notes. In 2000
we reduced our short-term debt with proceeds from the
sales of Ingersoll-Dresser Pump and Dresser-Rand joint
ventures early in the year. We increased short-term debt in
the fourth quarter of 2000 to fund share repurchases.

Late in 2001 and early in 2002, Moody’s Investors’ Services

lowered its ratings of our long-term senior unsecured debt
to Baa2 and our short-term credit and commercial paper
ratings to P-2. In addition, Standard & Poor’s lowered its
ratings of our long-term senior unsecured debt to A- and our
short-term credit and commercial paper ratings to A-2. The
ratings were lowered primarily due to the agencies’ concerns
about asbestos litigation. Although the long-term ratings
continue at investment grade levels and the short-term
ratings allow participation in the commercial paper market,
the cost of new borrowing is higher and our access to the debt
markets is more volatile at the new rating levels. Reduced
ratings and concerns about asbestos litigation, along with
recent changes in the banking and insurance markets, will
also result in higher cost and more limited access to markets
for other credit products including letters of credit and
surety bonds. At this time, it is not possible to compute the
increased costs of credit products we may need in the future
but it is not expected to be material based upon the current
forecast of our credit needs.

We ended 2001 with cash and equivalents of $290 million

and we are projecting strong cash flow from operations in
2002. We also have $700 million of committed lines of
credit from banks that are available if we maintain an
investment grade rating. Investment grade ratings are
BBB- or higher for Standard & Poor’s and Baa3 or higher for
Moody’s Investors’ Services and we are currently above
these levels. Nothing has been borrowed under these lines
and no borrowings are anticipated during 2002. In the
normal course of business we have agreements with banks
under which approximately $1.4 billion of letters of credit
or bank guarantees were issued, including $241 million
which relate to our joint ventures’ operations. In addition,
$320 million of these financial instruments include
provisions that allow the banks to require cash collateraliza-
tion if debt ratings of either rating agency falls below the
rating of BBB by Standard & Poor’s or Baa2 by Moody’s

Investors’ Services and $149 million where banks may
require cash collateralization if either debt rating falls
below investment grade.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of
judgments and estimates. Our critical accounting policies
are described below to provide a better understanding of
how we develop our judgments about future events and
related estimations and how they can impact our financial
statements. A critical accounting policy is one that requires
our most difficult, subjective or complex estimates and
assessments and is fundamental to our results of operations.
We identified our most critical accounting policies to be:

• percentage of completion accounting for our long-term

engineering and construction contracts; and 

• loss contingencies, primarily related to

- asbestos litigation; and
- other litigation.

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with our consolidated financial statements and related notes
included elsewhere in this report.

percentage of completion
We account for our revenues on long-term engineering and
construction contracts on the percentage of completion
method. This method of accounting requires us to calculate
job profit to be recognized in each reporting period for 
each job based upon our predictions of future outcomes
which include:

• estimates of the total cost to complete the contract;
• estimates of project schedule and completion date;
• estimates of the percentage the project is complete; and
• amounts of any probable unapproved claims and

change orders included in revenues.

At the onset of each contract, we prepare a detailed step-
by-step analysis of our estimated cost to complete the project.
Our project personnel continuously evaluate the estimated
costs, claims and change orders, and percentage of completion
at the project level. Significant projects are reviewed in
detail by senior engineering and construction management
at least quarterly. Preparing project cost estimates and
percentages of completion is a core competency within our
engineering and construction businesses. We have a long
history of dealing with multiple types of projects and in
preparing accurate cost estimates. However, there are many
factors, including but not limited to weather, inflation, labor
disruptions and timely availability of materials, and other

32

M a n a g e m e n t ’ s   D i s c u s s i o n   a n d   A n a l y s i s

factors as outlined in our “Forward-Looking Information”
section. These factors can affect the accuracy of our
estimates and impact our future reported earnings.

December 31, 2001 for further discussion of the status and
history of our asbestos claim litigation and our insurance
coverage.

loss contingencies
Asbestos. We have approximately 274,000 open asbestos
claims pending against us at December 31, 2001 for which
we have accrued $737 million for estimated settlements
and $612 million for estimated recoveries from insurance
companies.

Computing our liability for open asbestos claims requires

us to make judgments as to the most likely outcome of
litigation, future settlements and judgments to be paid for
open claims. We estimate settlement payments for open
claims by applying our average historical settlement costs by
type of claim to the corresponding open claims. We believe
our average historical settlement costs are a reasonable
estimate of the cost of resolving open claims. We estimate the
cost of final judgments by reviewing with our legal counsel
the probable outcome of pending appeals. If the actual cost
of settlements and final judgments differs from our estimates,
our reserves for open claims may not be sufficient. If so, any
deficiency would be a loss we would be required to recognize
at the time it becomes reasonably estimable.

Estimating amounts we will recover from insurance
companies for open claims involves making assumptions
about the ability of the companies to meet their obligations
under our policies. If our estimates of recoveries differ from
actual recoveries, we may have uncollectible receivables
that we may be required to write-off and we will have reduced
amounts of insurance coverage for future claims. Dozens of
insurance companies provide our insurance coverage for
non-refractory and non-engineering and construction asbestos
claims. We believe this reduces our risk associated with the
failure of any one insurance company. On the other hand, a
majority of our coverage for refractory asbestos claims is with
Equitas. Although we believe Equitas is currently able to
meet its obligations to us, its failure to meet its commitments
in the future could have a material adverse affect on our
financial condition at that time.

We have also estimated the amount we will recover from
the insurance written by Highlands Insurance Company that
covers our engineering and construction asbestos claims. If
our assumptions concerning our ability to collect amounts
owed to us by Highlands are incorrect, we may have up to
$80 million of billed and accrued receivables from Highlands
which will not be collectible as of December 31, 2001.
See Note 9 of our consolidated financial statements as of

Uncertainty about future asbestos claims and jury awards

has caused much of the recent volatility in our stock price
and recent downgrades in our credit ratings. We have not
accrued reserves for unknown claims that may be asserted
against us in the future. We have not had sufficient
information to make a reasonable estimate of future claims.
However, we recently retained a leading claim evaluation
firm to assist us in making an estimate of our potential liability
for asbestos claims that may be asserted against us in the
future. When the evaluation firm’s analysis is completed it
is likely that we will accrue a material liability for future
claims that may be asserted against us. We expect the analysis
will be completed during the second quarter of 2002 and
that we will accrue the liability at the end of the quarter. At
the same time we will accrue a receivable for related
insurance proceeds we expect to collect when future claims
are actually paid.

Litigation. We are currently involved in other legal

proceedings not involving asbestos. As discussed in Note 9
of our consolidated financial statements, as of December 31,
2001, we have accrued an estimate of the probable costs for
the resolution of these claims. Attorneys in our legal
department specializing in litigation claims, monitor and
manage all claims filed against us. The estimate of probable
costs related to these claims is developed in consultation
with outside legal counsel representing us in the defense of
these claims. Our estimates are based upon an analysis of
potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and
settlement strategies. We attempt to resolve claims through
mediation and arbitration where possible. If the actual
settlement costs and final judgments, after appeals, differ
from our estimates, our future financial results may be
adversely affected.

In addition to these long-term contractual obligations, we

have other commercial commitments that could become
contractual obligations.

We also have $700 million of committed lines of credit
from banks that are available if we maintain an investment
grade rating. Investment grade ratings are BBB- or higher
for Standard & Poor’s and Baa3 or higher for Moody’s
Investors’ Services and we are currently above these levels.
In the normal course of business we have agreements with
banks under which approximately $1.4 billion of letters of
credit or bank guarantees were issued, including $241
million which relate to our joint ventures’ operations. In
addition, $320 million of these financial instruments
include provisions that allow the banks to require cash
collateralization if debt ratings of either rating agency falls
below the rating of BBB by Standard & Poor’s or Baa2 by
Moody’s Investors’ Services and $149 million where banks
may require cash collateralization if either debt rating falls
below investment grade. These letters of credit and bank
guarantees relate to our guaranteed performance or
retention payments under our long-term contracts and self-
insurance. In the past, no significant claims have been
made against these financial instruments. We do not antici-
pate material losses to occur as a result of these financial
instruments.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to financial instrument market risk from
changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and
to a limited extent, commodity prices. We selectively manage
these exposures through the use of derivative instruments to
mitigate our market risk from these exposures. The objective
of our risk management program is to protect our cash flows
related to sales or purchases of goods or services from
market fluctuations in currency rates. Our use of derivative
instruments includes the following types of market risk:

• volatility of the currency rates;
• time horizon of the derivative instruments;
• market cycles; and
• the type of derivative instruments used.

We do not use derivative instruments for trading purposes.
We do not consider any of these risk management activities
to be material. See Note 1 for additional information on our
accounting policies on derivative instruments. See Note 16
for additional disclosures related to derivative instruments.
Interest rate risk. We have exposure to interest rate risk

from our long-term debt and related interest rate swaps.

The following table represents principal amounts of our long-
term debt at December 31, 2001 and related weighted average
interest rates by year of maturity for our long-term debt.

Fair market value of long-term debt was $1.3 billion as of

December 31, 2001.

We have two interest rate swaps which convert fixed rate

debt to variable rate debt. One of our interest rate swaps
hedges $150 million of the 6% fixed rate medium-term
notes and has a fair value of $3.4 million at December 31,
2001. Under this interest rate swap agreement, the counter
party pays a fixed rate of 6% interest and we pay a variable
interest rate based on published 6-month LIBOR interest
rates. The payments under the agreement are settled on
February 1 and August 1 of each year until August 2006,
and coincide with the interest payment dates on the hedged
debt instrument. The other interest rate swap hedges $139
million of our 8% long-term debt and has a fair value of a
loss of $0.2 million at December 31, 2001. Under this
interest rate swap agreement, the counter party pays a fixed
rate of 8% interest and we pay a variable interest rate based
on published 6-month LIBOR interest rates. The payments
under the agreement are settled on April 15 and October 15
of each year until April 2003, and coincide with the interest
payment dates on the hedged debt instrument.

RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES 
In the fourth quarter of 2000 we approved a plan to reorganize
our engineering and construction businesses into one
business unit. This restructuring was undertaken because
our engineering and construction businesses continued to
experience delays in customer commitments for new
upstream and downstream projects. With the exception of
deepwater projects, short-term prospects for increased
engineering and construction activities in either the upstream
or downstream businesses were not positive. As a result of
the reorganization of the engineering and construction
businesses, we took actions to rationalize our operating
structure including write-offs of equipment, engineering
reference designs and capitalized software of $20 million
and recorded severance costs of $16 million. See Note 11.

M a n a g e m e n t ’ s   D i s c u s s i o n   a n d   A n a l y s i s

During the second quarter of 1999, we reversed $47 million

of our 1998 special charges related to the acquisition of
Dresser Industries, Inc., and industry downturn. This was
based on our reassessment of total costs to be incurred to
complete the actions covered in the charges.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
We are subject to numerous environmental legal and
regulatory requirements related to our operations worldwide.
As a result of those obligations we are involved in specific
environmental litigation and claims, the clean-up of properties
we own or have operated, and efforts to meet or correct
compliance-related matters. See Note 9.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides
safe harbor provisions for forward-looking information.
Forward-looking information is based on projections and
estimates, not historical information. Some statements in this
annual report are forward-looking and use words like
“may,” “may not,” “believes,” “do not believe,” “expects,”
“do not expect,” “do not anticipate,” and similar expressions.
We may also provide oral or written forward-looking
information in other materials we release to the public.
Forward-looking information involves risks and uncertain-
ties and reflects our best judgment based on current
information. Our results of operations can be affected by
inaccurate assumptions we make or by known or unknown
risks and uncertainties. In addition, other factors may
affect the accuracy of our forward-looking information. As a
result, no forward-looking information can be guaranteed.
Actual events and the results of operations may vary materi-
ally.

While it is not possible to identify all factors, we continue
to face many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ from our forward-looking statements including:

legal

• asbestos litigation including the recent judgments

against us and related appeals;

• asbestos related insurance litigation including our
litigation with Highlands Insurance Company;

• other litigation, including, for example, contract disputes,

patent infringements and environmental matters;

• trade restrictions and economic embargoes imposed by

the United States and other countries;

• changes in governmental regulations in the numerous
countries in which we operate including, for example,
regulations that:
- encourage or mandate the hiring of local contractors; and

-

require foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or
purchase supplies from, a particular jurisdiction; and
• environmental laws, including, for example, those that
require emission performance standards for facilities;

geopolitical

• unsettled political conditions, war, the effects of terrorism,
civil unrest, currency controls and governmental actions
in the numerous countries in which we operate;
• operations in countries with significant amounts of

political risk, including, for example, Algeria, Angola,
Argentina, Libya, Nigeria, and Russia; and

• changes in foreign exchange rates and exchange

controls as were experienced in Argentina in late 2001
and early 2002;

liquidity

• reductions in debt ratings by rating agencies such as our
recent reductions by Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s;

• access to lines of credit and credit markets;
• ability to issue letters of credit; and
• ability to raise capital via the sale of stock;

weather related

• the effects of severe weather conditions, including, for

example, hurricanes and typhoons, on offshore
operations and facilities; and

• the impact of prolonged severe or mild weather conditions

on the demand for and price of oil and natural gas;

customers

• the magnitude of governmental spending and

outsourcing for military and logistical support of the
type that we provide, including, for example, support
services in Bosnia;

• changes in capital spending by customers in the oil and
gas industry for exploration, development, production,
processing, refining, and pipeline delivery networks;

• changes in capital spending by governments for

infrastructure projects of the sort that we perform;
• consolidation of customers in the oil and gas industry
such as the proposed merger of Conoco and Phillips
Petroleum; and

• claim negotiations with engineering and construction
customers on cost variances and change orders on
major projects;

M a n a g e m e n t ’ s   D i s c u s s i o n   a n d   A n a l y s i s

industry

• technological and structural changes in the industries

that we serve;

• changes that impact the demand for oil and gas such as the
slowdown in the global economy following the terrorist
attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001;
• changes in the price of oil and natural gas, resulting from:
- OPEC’s ability to set and maintain production levels

-

-

-

and prices for oil;
the level of oil production by non-OPEC countries;
the policies of governments regarding exploration for
and production and development of their oil and
natural gas reserves; and
the level of demand for oil and natural gas, especially
natural gas in the United States where demand is
currently below prior year usage;

• changes in the price or the availability of commodities

that we use;

• risks that result from entering into fixed fee engineering,
procurement and construction projects, such as the
Barracuda-Caratinga project in Brazil, where failure to
meet schedules, cost estimates or performance targets
could result in non-reimbursable costs which cause the
project not to meet our expected profit margins;
• risks that result from entering into complex business
arrangements for technically demanding projects
where failure by one or more parties could result in
monetary penalties; and

• the risk inherent in the use of derivative instruments
of the sort that we use which could cause a change in
value of the derivative instruments as a result of:
- adverse movements in foreign exchange rates,

-

interest rates, or commodity prices; or
the value and time period of the derivative being
different than the exposures or cash flows being
hedged;

personnel and mergers/reorganizations/dispositions
• increased competition in the hiring and retention of
employees in specific areas, including, for example,
energy services operations, accounting and finance;
• integration of acquired businesses into Halliburton,

such as our 2001 acquisition of Magic Earth, Inc. and
PGS Data Management, including:
- standardizing information systems or integrating data

from multiple systems;

- maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures

and policies; and

- combining operations and personnel of acquired

businesses with ours;

• effectively reorganizing operations and personnel

within Halliburton such as the reorganization of our
engineering and construction business in early 2001;
• ensuring acquisitions and new products and services
add value and complement our core businesses; and

• successful completion of planned dispositions.

In addition, future trends for pricing, margins, revenues
and profitability remain difficult to predict in the industries
we serve. We do not assume any responsibility to publicly
update any of our forward-looking statements regardless of
whether factors change as a result of new information, future
events or for any other reason. You should review any
additional disclosures we make in our press releases and
Forms 10-Q, 8-K and 10-K to the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission. We also suggest that you listen
to our quarterly earnings release conference calls with
financial analysts.

OTHER ISSUES

conversion to the euro currency
On January 1, 1999, some member countries of the European
Union established fixed conversion rates between their
existing currencies and the European Union’s common
currency (euro). This was the first step towards transition
from existing national currencies to the use of the euro as a
common currency. Euro notes and coins were introduced on
January 1, 2002 and the transition period for the introduction
of the euro ends February 28, 2002. Issues resulting from
the introduction of the euro include converting information
technology systems, reassessing currency risk, negotiating
and amending existing contracts and processing tax and
accounting records. We addressed these issues prior to
December 31, 2001. In addition, our operations in the
eurozone countries began transacting most of their businesses
in euros prior to December 31, 2001. Thus far in 2002, we
have not experienced any major issues related to converting
to the euro and do not anticipate any material impacts in
the future.

new pronouncements
In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued SFAS No. 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations” which addresses the financial accounting and
reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of
tangible long-lived assets and the associated assets’ retirement
costs. The new standard will be effective for us beginning
January 1, 2003, and we are currently reviewing and
evaluating the effects this standard will have on our future
financial condition, results of operations, and accounting
policies and practices.

In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. This statement supercedes:

• SFAS No. 121 “Accounting for the Impairment of

Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be
Disposed Of”; and

• the accounting and reporting provisions of APB 30,

“Reporting the Results of Operations – Reporting the
Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business,
Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring
Events and Transactions”.

The new standard will be effective for us beginning
January 1, 2002, and we do not believe the effects of this
standard will have a material effect on our future financial
condition or operations.

There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any
system of internal control, including the possibility of human
error and the circumvention or overriding of controls.
Accordingly, even an effective internal control system can
provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the
reliability of our financial statements. Also, the effectiveness
of an internal control system may change over time.

We have assessed our internal control system in relation

to criteria for effective internal control over financial
reporting described in “Internal Control-Integrated
Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based upon
that assessment, we believe that, as of December 31, 2001,
our system of internal control over financial reporting met
those criteria.

We are responsible for the preparation and integrity of our
published financial statements. The financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America and,
accordingly, include amounts based on judgments and
estimates made by our management. We also prepared the
other information included in the annual report and are
responsible for its accuracy and consistency with the financial
statements.

The financial statements have been audited by the
independent accounting firm, Arthur Andersen LLP.
Arthur Andersen LLP was given unrestricted access to all
financial records and related data, including minutes of all
meetings of stockholders, the Board of Directors and
committees of the Board. Halliburton’s Audit Committee
of the Board of Directors consists of directors who, in the
business judgment of the Board of Directors, are
independent under the New York Exchange listing standards.
The Board of Directors, operating through its Audit
Committee, provides oversight to the financial reporting
process. Integral to this process is the Audit Committee’s
review and discussion with management and the external
auditors of the quarterly and annual financial statements
prior to their respective filing.

We maintain a system of internal control over financial
reporting, which is intended to provide reasonable assurance
to our management and Board of Directors regarding the
reliability of our financial statements. The system includes:

• a documented organizational structure and division of

responsibility;

• established policies and procedures, including a code
of conduct to foster a strong ethical climate which is
communicated throughout the company; and

• the careful selection, training and development of our

people.

Internal auditors monitor the operation of the internal
control system and report findings and recommendations to
management and the Board of Directors. Corrective actions
are taken to address control deficiencies and other opportu-
nities for improving the system as they are identified. In
accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s
rules to improve the reliability of financial statements, our
interim financial statements are reviewed by Arthur
Andersen LLP.

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND 
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
HALLIBURTON COMPANY:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets of Halliburton Company (a Delaware corporation)
and subsidiary companies as of December 31, 2001 and 2000,
and the related consolidated statements of income, cash
flows, and shareholders’ equity for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 2001. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company’s manage-
ment. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of America.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and signifi-
cant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Halliburton Company and subsidiary companies as of
December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.

NOTE 1.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We employ accounting policies that are in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America requires us to make estimates
and assumptions that affect:

• the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and

disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements; and

• the reported amounts of revenues and expenses 

during the reporting period.

Ultimate results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of consolidation. The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of our company and all of
our subsidiaries in which we own greater than 50% interest
or control. All material intercompany accounts and transac-
tions are eliminated. Investments in companies in which
we own 50% interest or less and have a significant influence
are accounted for using the equity method and if we do not
have significant influence we use the cost method. Prior
year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
year presentation.

Revenues and income recognition. We recognize revenues

as services are rendered or products are shipped. The
distinction between services and product sales is based
upon the overall activity of the particular business operation.
Revenues from engineering and construction contracts are
reported on the percentage of completion method of
accounting using measurements of progress towards
completion appropriate for the work performed. Progress is
generally based upon physical progress, man-hours or costs
incurred based upon the appropriate method for the type of
job. All known or anticipated losses on contracts are provided
for currently. Claims and change orders which are in the
process of being negotiated with customers, for extra work or
changes in the scope of work, are included in revenue when
collection is deemed probable. Training and consulting service
revenues are recognized as the services are performed. Sales
of perpetual software licenses, net of deferred maintenance
fees, are recorded as revenue upon shipment. Sales of use
licenses are recognized as revenue over the license period.
Post-contract customer support agreements are recorded as
deferred revenues and recognized as revenue ratably over
the contract period of generally one year’s duration.

Research and development. Research and development
expenses are charged to income as incurred. See Note 4
for research and development expense by business segment.

Software development costs. Costs of developing software
for sale are charged to expense when incurred, as research
and development, until technological feasibility has been
established for the product. Once technological feasibility
is established, software development costs are capitalized
until the software is ready for general release to customers.
We capitalized costs related to software developed for resale
of $19 million in 2001, $7 million in 2000 and $12 million in
1999. Amortization expense of software development costs
was $16 million for 2001, $12 million for 2000 and $15 million
for 1999. Once the software is ready for release, amortization
of the software development costs begins. Capitalized
software development costs are amortized over periods which
do not exceed five years.

Income per share. Basic income per share is based on the

weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the year. Diluted income per share includes additional
common shares that would have been outstanding if potential
common shares with a dilutive effect had been issued. See
Note 10 for a reconciliation of basic and diluted income per
share.

Cash equivalents. We consider all highly liquid investments
with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.

Receivables. Our receivables are generally not collateralized.

With the exception of claims and change orders which are
in the process of being negotiated with customers, unbilled
work on uncompleted contracts generally represents work
currently billable, and this work is usually billed during
normal billing processes in the next several months. The
claims and change orders, included in unbilled receivables,
amounted to $234 million at December 31, 2001 and 
$113 million at December 31, 2000.

Included in notes and accounts receivable are notes with

varying interest rates totaling $19 million at December 31,
2001 and $38 million at December 31, 2000.

Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or
market. Cost represents invoice or production cost for new
items and original cost less allowance for condition for used
material returned to stock. Production cost includes material,
labor and manufacturing overhead. The cost of most
inventories is determined using either the first-in, first-out
method or the average cost method, although the cost of
some United States manufacturing and field service
inventories is determined using the last-in, first-out method.
Inventories of sales items owned by foreign subsidiaries
and inventories of operating supplies and parts are generally
valued at average cost. See Note 5.

2001  halliburton annual  report

N o t e s   t o   A n n u a l   F i n a n c i a l   S t a t e m e n t s

Property, plant and equipment. Property, plant and

equipment are reported at cost less accumulated deprecia-
tion, which is generally provided on the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Some assets
are depreciated on accelerated methods. Accelerated
depreciation methods are also used for tax purposes, wherever
permitted. Upon sale or retirement of an asset, the related
costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the
accounts and any gain or loss is recognized. When events or
changes in circumstances indicate that assets may be
impaired, an evaluation is performed. The estimated future
undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset are
compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a
write-down to market value or discounted cash flow value
is required. We follow the successful efforts method of
accounting for oil and gas properties. See Note 6.

Maintenance and repairs. Expenditures for maintenance

and repairs are expensed; expenditures for renewals and
improvements are generally capitalized. We use the accrue-
in-advance method of accounting for major maintenance
and repair costs of marine vessel dry docking expense and
major aircraft overhauls and repairs. Under this method we
anticipate the need for major maintenance and repairs and
charge the estimated expense to operations before the
actual work is performed. At the time the work is performed,
the actual cost incurred is charged against the amounts that
were previously accrued with any deficiency or excess
charged or credited to operating expense.

Goodwill. For acquisitions occurring prior to July 1, 2001,

goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over periods
not exceeding 40 years. Effective July 1, 2001, we adopted
SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” which precludes
amortization of goodwill on acquisitions completed
subsequent to June 30, 2001. See Note 12 for discussion of
this accounting change. Goodwill is continually monitored
for potential impairment. When negative conditions such as
significant current or projected operating losses exist, a
review is performed to determine if the projected
undiscounted future cash flows indicate that an impairment
exists. If an impairment exists, goodwill, and, if appropriate,
the associated assets are reduced to reflect the estimated
discounted cash flows to be generated by the underlying
business. This practice is consistent with methodologies in
SFAS No. 121 “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of.”
Income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the expected future tax consequences of
events that have been recognized in the financial statements
or tax returns. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred

tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will
either expire before we are able to realize their benefit, or
that future deductibility is uncertain.

Derivative instruments. We enter into derivative financial

transactions to hedge existing or projected exposures to
changing foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates
and commodity prices. We do not enter into derivative
transactions for speculative or trading purposes. Effective
January 1, 2001, we adopted SFAS No. 133 “Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” 
See Note 12. SFAS No. 133 requires that we recognize all
derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives
that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value and
reflected immediately through the results of operations. If
the derivative is designated as a hedge under SFAS No. 133,
depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair
value of derivatives are either offset against:

• the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities,

or firm commitments through earnings; or

• recognized in other comprehensive income until the

hedged item is recognized in earnings.

The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair
value is immediately recognized in earnings. Recognized
gains or losses on derivatives entered into to manage foreign
exchange risk are included in foreign currency gains and
losses on the consolidated statements of income. Gains or
losses on interest rate derivatives are included in interest
expense and gains or losses on commodity derivatives are
included in operating income. During the three years ended
December 31, 2001, we did not enter into any significant
transactions to hedge commodity prices. See Note 8 for
discussion of interest rate swaps and Note 16 for further
discussion of foreign currency exchange derivatives.

Foreign currency translation. Foreign entities whose
functional currency is the United States dollar translate
monetary assets and liabilities at year-end exchange rates
and non-monetary items are translated at historical rates.
Income and expense accounts are translated at the average
rates in effect during the year, except for depreciation, cost
of product sales and revenues, and expenses associated with
non-monetary balance sheet accounts which are translated
at historical rates. Gains or losses from changes in exchange
rates are recognized in consolidated income in the year of
occurrence. Foreign entities whose functional currency is
the local currency translate net assets at year-end rates and
income and expense accounts at average exchange rates.
Adjustments resulting from these translations are reflected
in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity titled
“Cumulative Translation Adjustment.”

Loss contingencies. We accrue for loss contingencies based

upon our best estimates in accordance with SFAS No. 5
“Accounting for Contingencies.” See Note 9 for discussion
of our significant loss contingencies.

NOTE 2.
ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS
Magic Earth acquisition. In November 2001, we acquired
Magic Earth, Inc., a leading 3-D visualization and interpre-
tation technology company with broad applications in the
area of data mining. Under the agreement, Halliburton issued
4.2 million shares of common stock from treasury stock
valued at $100 million. Magic Earth became a wholly owned
subsidiary and is reported within our Energy Services Group.
We preliminarily recorded intangible assets of $19 million
and goodwill of $71 million, all of which is nondeductible
for tax purposes, subject to the final valuation of intangible
assets and other costs. The intangible assets will be amortized
based on a five year life.

PGS Data Management acquisition. In March 2001, we
acquired the PGS Data Management division of Petroleum
Geo-Services ASA (PGS) for $164 million. The agreement
also calls for Landmark to provide, for a fee, strategic data
management and distribution services to PGS for three years.
We preliminarily recorded intangible assets of $16 million
and goodwill of $148 million, $9 million of which is
nondeductible for tax purposes, subject to the final valuation
of intangible assets and other costs. The goodwill amortization
for 2001 was based on a 15 year life and the intangible
assets are being amortized based on a three year life.

PES acquisition. In February 2000, we acquired the
remaining 74% of the shares of PES (International) Limited
that we did not already own. PES is based in Aberdeen,
Scotland, and has developed technology that complements
Halliburton Energy Services’ real-time reservoir solutions.
To acquire the remaining 74% of PES, we issued 1.2 million
shares of Halliburton common stock. We also issued rights
that will result in the issuance of up to 2.1 million additional
shares of Halliburton common stock between February 2001
and February 2002. We issued 1 million shares in February
2001; 400,000 in June 2001; and the remaining 700,000 shares
in February 2002 under these rights. We recorded $115 million
of goodwill in connection with acquiring the remaining 74%.
During the second quarter of 2001, we contributed the
majority of PES’ assets and technologies, including $130
million of goodwill associated with the purchase of PES, to
a newly formed joint venture, WellDynamics. We received
$39 million in cash as an equity equalization adjustment. The
remaining assets and goodwill of PES relating to completions
and well intervention products have been combined with

our existing completions product service line. We own 50%
of WellDynamics and account for this investment using the
equity method.

Other acquisitions. We acquired other businesses in 2001
for $56 million, as compared to businesses acquired in 2000
for $10 million and $13 million in 1999. 

2001 acquisitions. None of our 2001 acquisitions had a

significant effect on revenues or earnings.

Subsea joint venture. In October 2001, we signed a letter

of intent to form a new company by combining our
Halliburton Subsea operations with DSND Subsea ASA, a
Norwegian-based company. The closing of the transaction is
subject to the execution of a definitive agreement, regulatory
approvals and approvals by the Board of Directors of each
party. We will own 50% of the new company which will be
accounted for on the equity method. The new company plans
to begin operations by the end of the first quarter of 2002.

European Marine Contractors Ltd. disposition. In
October 2001, we signed an agreement to sell our 50%
interest in European Marine Contractors Ltd., an unconsoli-
dated joint venture in the Energy Services Group, to our
joint venture partner, Saipem. The sale was finalized in
January 2002 and we received $115 million in cash plus a
contingent payment based on a formula linked to the Oil
Service Index performance that was exercised in February
2002 for $19 million in cash. We expect to record a pretax
gain of $108 million or $0.15 per diluted share after-tax in
the first quarter of 2002.

Dresser Equipment Group divestiture. Between October
1999 and April 2001, we disposed of all the businesses in
the Dresser Equipment Group. See Note 3.

LWD divestiture. In March 1999, in connection with the
Dresser Industries, Inc. merger, we sold the majority of our
pre-merger worldwide logging-while-drilling business and a
portion of the pre-merger measurement-while-drilling
business. The sale was in accordance with a consent decree
with the United States Department of Justice. This business
was previously part of the Energy Services Group. We
continue to provide separate logging-while-drilling services
through our Sperry-Sun Drilling Systems business line, which
was acquired as part of the merger with Dresser Industries,
Inc. and is now part of the Energy Services Group. In
addition, we will continue to provide sonic logging-while-
drilling services using technologies we had before the
merger with Dresser Industries, Inc.

NOTE 3.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In 1999, the Dresser Equipment Group was comprised of
six operating divisions and two joint ventures that manufac-
tured and marketed equipment used primarily in the energy,

47

2001  halliburton annual  report

N o t e s   t o   A n n u a l   F i n a n c i a l   S t a t e m e n t s

petrochemical, power and transportation industries. In
October 1999, we announced the sales of our 49% interest
in the Ingersoll-Dresser Pump joint venture and our 51%
interest in the Dresser-Rand joint venture to Ingersoll-Rand.
The sales were triggered by Ingersoll-Rand’s exercise of its
option under the joint venture agreements to cause us to
either buy their interests or sell ours. Both joint ventures
were part of the Dresser Equipment Group. Our Ingersoll-
Dresser Pump interest was sold in December 1999 for
approximately $515 million. We recorded a gain on disposition
of discontinued operations of $253 million before tax, or $159
million after-tax, for a net gain of $0.36 per diluted share in
1999 from the sale of Ingersoll-Dresser Pump. Proceeds
from the sale, after payment of our intercompany balance,
were received in the form of a $377 million promissory note
with an annual interest rate of 3.5% which was collected on
January 14, 2000. On February 2, 2000, we completed the
sale of our 51% interest in Dresser-Rand for a price of
$579 million. Proceeds from the sale, net of intercompany
amounts payable to the joint venture, were $536 million,
resulting in a gain on disposition of discontinued operations
of $356 million before tax, or $215 million after-tax, for a net
gain of $0.48 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2000.

These joint ventures represented nearly half of the group’s

revenues and operating profit in 1999. The sale of our
interests in the segment’s joint ventures prompted a strategic
review of the remaining businesses within the Dresser
Equipment Group. As a result of this review, we determined
that the remaining businesses did not closely fit with our core
businesses, long-term goals and strategic objectives. In April
2000, our Board of Directors approved plans to sell all the
remaining businesses within the Dresser Equipment Group.
We sold these businesses on April 10, 2001. As part of the
terms of the transaction, we retained a 5.1% equity interest
in the Dresser Equipment Group, which has been renamed
Dresser, Inc. In the second quarter of 2001, we recognized
a pretax gain on the sale of discontinued operations of
$498 million, or $299 million after-tax. Total value under
the agreement was $1.55 billion, less assumed liabilities,
and resulted in cash proceeds of $1.27 billion from the sale.
In connection with the sale, we accrued disposition related
costs, realized $68 million of noncurrent deferred income tax
assets, and reduced employee compensation and benefit
liabilities by $152 million for liabilities assumed by the
purchaser. The employee compensation and benefit liabilities
were previously included in “Employee compensation and
benefits” in the consolidated balance sheets.

The financial results of the Dresser Equipment Group
through March 31, 2001 are presented as discontinued
operations in our financial statements. During 2001, we
recorded as expense to discontinued operations $99 million,

48

net of anticipated insurance recoveries for asbestos claims.
This expense primarily consisted of $91 million relating to
Harbison-Walker asbestos claims arising after our divestiture
of Harbison-Walker in 1992. See Note 9.

NOTE 4.
BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
We have two business segments – Energy Services Group and
Engineering and Construction Group. Dresser Equipment
Group is presented as part of discontinued operations
through March 31, 2001 as a result of the sale in April 2001
of the remaining businesses within Dresser Equipment
Group. See Note 3. Our segments are organized around the
products and services provided to our customers. During
the fourth quarter of 2000, we announced restructuring
plans to combine all engineering, construction, fabrication
and project management operations into one company,
Halliburton KBR, reporting as our Engineering and
Construction Group. This restructuring resulted in some
activities moving from the Energy Services Group to the
Engineering and Construction Group, effective January 1,
2001. Prior periods have been restated for this change.
Energy Services Group. The Energy Services Group

provides a wide range of discrete services and products and
integrated solutions to customers for the exploration,

LINES OF CREDIT, NOTES PAYABLE AND
LONG-TERM DEBT
At December 31, 2001, we had committed lines of credit
totaling $700 million, of which $350 million expires in 2002
and $350 million expires in 2006. There were no borrowings
outstanding under these lines of credit. These lines are not
available if our senior unsecured long-term debt is rated
lower than BBB– by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service
Group or lower than Baa3 by Moody’s Investors’ Services.
Fees for committed lines of credit were immaterial.

Short-term debt consists primarily of $25 million in

commercial paper with an effective interest rate of 2.9% and
$19 million of other facilities with varying rates of interest.

Long-term debt at the end of 2001 and 2000 consists of

the following:

Millions of dollars
7.6% debentures due August 2096
8.75% debentures due February 2021

prior to maturity and do not have sinking fund requirements.
On July 12, 2001, we issued $425 million of two and five
year notes under our medium-term note program. The notes
consist of $275 million 6% fixed rate notes due August 2006
and $150 million LIBOR + 0.15% floating rate notes due
July 2003. At December 31, 2001, we have outstanding notes

Each holder of the 6.75% medium-term notes has the
right to require us to repay the holder’s notes in whole or in
part, on February 1, 2007. We may redeem the 5.63% and
6.00% medium-term notes in whole or in part at any time.
Other notes issued under the medium-term note program
may not be redeemed prior to maturity. The medium-term
notes do not have sinking fund requirements.

We manage our fixed ratio of variable rate debt and
accordingly have entered into two interest rate swaps
during the second half of 2001 on a portion of our newly
issued 6% fixed rate medium-term notes and on our 8%
senior notes. The interest rate swap agreements have
notional amounts of $150 million and $139 million. The

51

2001  halliburton annual  report

N o t e s   t o   A n n u a l   F i n a n c i a l   S t a t e m e n t s

interest rate swaps have been designated as fair value hedges
under SFAS No. 133. See Note 16. At December 31, 2001
the fair value of the interest rate swap on our 6% fixed rate
medium-term notes was $3.4 million which has been classi-
fied in “Other assets.” The fair value of the interest rate
swap on our 8% senior notes at December 31, 2001 was a
$0.2 million liability and has been classified in “Other liabili-
ties.” The hedged portion of the long-term debt is recorded
at fair value. We account for these interest rate swaps using
the short-cut method, as described in SFAS No. 133, and
determined there was no ineffectiveness for the period
ending December 31, 2001. Amounts to be received or
paid as a result of the swap agreements are recognized as
adjustments to interest expense. The interest rate swaps
resulted in a decrease to interest expense of $2.6 million
for the year ended December 31, 2001.

Our debt matures as follows: $81 million in 2002; $291
million in 2003; $2 million in 2004 and 2005; $277 in 2006;
and $828 million thereafter.

Asbestos litigation. Several of our subsidiaries, particularly

Dresser Industries, Inc. and Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc.,
are defendants in a large number of asbestos related lawsuits.
The plaintiffs allege injury as a result of exposure to
asbestos in products manufactured or sold by former
divisions of Dresser Industries, Inc. or in materials used in
construction or maintenance projects of Kellogg Brown &
Root, Inc. These claims are in three general categories:

• refractory claims;
• other Dresser Industries, Inc. claims; and
• construction claims.

refractory claims
Asbestos was used in a small number of products manufac-
tured or sold by the refractories business of Harbison-Walker
Refractories Company, which Dresser Industries, Inc.
acquired in 1967. Harbison-Walker was spun-off by Dresser
Industries, Inc. in 1992. At that time Harbison-Walker agreed
to assume liability for asbestos claims filed after the spin-off
and it agreed to defend and indemnify Dresser Industries,
Inc. from liability for those claims. Dresser Industries, Inc.
retained responsibility for asbestos claims filed before the
spin-off. After the spin-off, Dresser Industries, Inc. and
Harbison-Walker entered into coverage-in-place agreements
with a number of insurance companies. Those agreements
provide both Dresser Industries, Inc. and Harbison-Walker
access to the same insurance coverage to reimburse them
for defense costs, settlements and court judgments they pay
to resolve refractory claims. 

As of December 31, 2001 there were approximately 7,000

open and unresolved pre-spin-off refractory claims against
Dresser Industries, Inc. In addition, there were approximately
125,000 post spin-off claims that name Dresser Industries,
Inc. as a defendant. Dresser Industries, Inc. has taken up
the defense of unsettled post spin-off refractory claims that
name it as a defendant in order to prevent Harbison-Walker
from unnecessarily eroding the insurance coverage both
companies can access for these claims.

other dresser industries, inc. claims
As of December 31, 2001, there were approximately 110,000
open and unresolved claims alleging injuries from asbestos
used in several other types of products formerly manufac-
tured by Dresser Industries, Inc. Most of these claims
involve gaskets and packing materials used in pumps and
other industrial products.

construction claims
Our Engineering and Construction Group includes
engineering and construction businesses formerly operated
by The M.W. Kellogg Company and Brown & Root, Inc.,
now combined as Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc. As of
December 31, 2001, there were approximately 32,000 open
and unresolved claims alleging injuries from asbestos in
materials used in construction and maintenance projects,
most of which were conducted by Brown & Root, Inc. Less
than 1,000 of these claims are asserted against the M.W.
Kellogg Company. A prior owner of The M.W. Kellogg
Company provides Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc. a contractual
indemnification for those claims.

harbison-walker chapter 11 bankruptcy
Harbison-Walker was spun-off by Dresser Industries, Inc.
in 1992. At that time Harbison-Walker agreed to assume
liability for asbestos claims filed after the spin-off and it
agreed to defend and indemnify Dresser Industries, Inc.
from liability for those claims. On February 14, 2002
Harbison-Walker filed a voluntary petition for reorganization
under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in
the bankruptcy court in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In its
bankruptcy-related filings, Harbison-Walker said that it would
seek to utilize Sections 524(g) and 105 of the bankruptcy
code to propose and have confirmed a plan of reorganization
that provides for distributions for all legitimate asbestos
pending and future claims against it or for which it has agreed
to indemnify and defend Dresser Industries, Inc. If a plan
of reorganization is ultimately confirmed, all pending and
future Harbison-Walker related asbestos claims against
Harbison-Walker or Dresser Industries, Inc. could be
channeled to a Section 524(g)/105 trust for resolution and
payment. In order for a trust to be confirmed, at least a
majority of the equity ownership of Harbison-Walker would
have to be contributed to the trust. Creation of a trust would
also require the approval of 75% of the asbestos claimant
creditors of Harbison-Walker. 

In connection with the Chapter 11 filing by Harbison-
Walker, the bankruptcy court issued a temporary restraining
order staying all further litigation of more than 200,000
asbestos claims currently pending against Dresser Industries,
Inc. in numerous courts throughout the United States. On
February 21, 2002, the bankruptcy court extended the time
period of the stay until April 4, 2002, when the bankruptcy
court will hold a hearing to decide if the stay will continue
or be modified. The stayed asbestos claims are those covered
by insurance that both Dresser Industries, Inc. and Harbison-
Walker can access to pay defense costs, settlements and
judgments attributable to asbestos claims. The stayed claims
include approximately 132,000 post-1992 spin-off refractory
claims, 7,000 pre-spin-off refractory claims and approximately
96,000 other types of asbestos claims pending against Dresser
Industries, Inc. that are covered by the same shared
insurance. Approximately 46,000 of the claims in the third
category are claims made against Dresser Industries, Inc.
based on more than one ground for recovery and the stay
affects only the portion of the claim covered by the shared
insurance. The stay prevents litigation from proceeding
further while the stay is in effect and also prohibits the filing
of new claims. One of the purposes of the stay is to allow
Harbison-Walker and Dresser Industries, Inc. time to develop
and propose a plan of reorganization. 

The stay issued on February 14, 2002 and extended on
February 21, 2002 is temporary until the bankruptcy court
completes a hearing currently scheduled for April 4, 2002.
At the conclusion of that hearing the bankruptcy court may
issue a preliminary injunction continuing the stay or it may
modify or dissolve the stay as it applies to Dresser Industries,
Inc. It is also possible that the bankruptcy court will schedule
future hearings while continuing or modifying the stay. At
present, there is no assurance that a stay will remain in effect,
that a plan of reorganization will ultimately be proposed or
confirmed, or that any plan that is confirmed will provide
relief to Dresser Industries, Inc. If a plan is not ultimately
confirmed that provides relief to Dresser Industries, Inc., it
will be required to defend all open claims in the courts in
which they have been filed, possibly with reduced access
to the insurance shared with Harbison-Walker.

Dresser Industries, Inc. has agreed to provide $35 million

of debtor-in-possession financing to Harbison-Walker
during the pendency of the Chapter 11 proceeding. On
February 14, 2002, Dresser Industries, Inc. paid $40 million
to Harbison-Walker’s United States parent holding company,
RHI Refractories Holding Company, which we will charge
to discontinued operations in the first quarter of 2002. The
first payment was made on the filing of the bankruptcy
petition. Dresser Industries, Inc. had to act to protect its
insurance asset from dissipation by Harbison-Walker if there
was going to be any potential to resolve the asbestos claims
through the creation of a Section 524(g)/105 trust. The
payment to RHI Refractories led RHI Refractories to forgive
certain inter-company debt owed to it by Harbison-Walker,
thus increasing the assets of Harbison-Walker. Dresser
Industries, Inc. will pay another $35 million to RHI if a plan
of reorganization acceptable to Dresser Industries, Inc. is
proposed in the bankruptcy proceedings. A further $85 million
will be paid to RHI if a plan acceptable to Dresser Industries,
Inc. is approved by 75% of the Harbison-Walker asbestos
claimant creditors and confirmed by the bankruptcy court.
Dresser Industries, Inc., Harbison-Walker and RHI and its
affiliates have settled all litigation among them.

asbestos insurance coverage
We have insurance coverage that reimburses us for a
substantial portion of the costs we incur defending against
asbestos claims. This coverage also reimburses us for a
substantial portion of amounts we pay to settle claims and
amounts awarded in court judgments. The coverage is
provided by a large number of insurance policies written by
dozens of insurance companies. The insurance companies
wrote the coverage over a period of more than 30 years for
our subsidiaries and their predecessors. Large amounts of

53

2001  halliburton annual  report

N o t e s   t o   A n n u a l   F i n a n c i a l   S t a t e m e n t s

this coverage are now subject to coverage-in-place agreements
that resolve issues concerning amounts and terms of coverage.
The amount of insurance coverage available to us depends
on the nature and time of the alleged exposure to asbestos,
the specific subsidiary against which an asbestos claim is
asserted and other factors.

refractory claims insurance
Dresser Industries, Inc. has approximately $2.1 billion in
aggregate limits of insurance coverage for refractory asbestos
claims of which over half is with Equitas. Many of the issues
relating to the majority of this coverage have been resolved
by coverage-in-place agreements with dozens of companies,
including Equitas and other London-based insurance
companies. Recently, however, Equitas and other London-
based companies have imposed new restrictive
documentation requirements on Dresser Industries, Inc.
and other insureds. Equitas and other London-based
companies have stated that the new requirements are part
of an effort to limit payment of settlements to claimants who
are truly impaired by exposure to asbestos and can identify
the product or premises that caused their exposure. On
August 7, 2001 Dresser Industries, Inc. filed a lawsuit in
Dallas County, Texas, against a number of these insurance
companies asserting Dresser Industries, Inc.’s rights under
existing coverage-in-place agreements. These agreements
allow Dresser Industries, Inc. to enter into settlements for
small amounts without requiring claimants to produce
detailed documentation to support their claims, when we
believe settlements are an effective claims management
strategy. We believe that the new documentation require-
ments are inconsistent with the current coverage-in-place
agreements and are unenforceable. The insurance companies
Dresser Industries, Inc. has sued have not refused to pay
larger claim settlements where documentation is obtained
or where court judgments are entered. Also, they continue
to pay previously agreed to amounts of defense costs
Dresser Industries, Inc. incurs defending refractory asbestos
claims. If a Section 524(g)/105 trust is confirmed as part of
the Harbison-Walker bankruptcy proceedings, this insurance
will be used to fund that trust.

other dresser industries, inc. claims insurance
Dresser Industries, Inc. has insurance that covers other open
asbestos claims against it. Some of this insurance covers
Dresser Industries, Inc. entities acquired prior to the 1986
asbestos exclusions. Many of the traditional Dresser
Industries, Inc. product manufacturing companies or divisions
are covered under these policies. Other coverage is provided
by a number of different policies which Dresser Industries,

Inc. acquired rights to access for coverage of asbestos claims
when it acquired businesses from other companies. A
significant portion of this insurance coverage is shared with
Federal-Mogul Corporation, which is now in reorganization
under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code. The effect of that
bankruptcy on Dresser Industries, Inc.’s ability to continue
to access this shared insurance is uncertain. 

On August 28, 2001, Dresser Industries, Inc. filed a
separate lawsuit against Equitas and other London-based
companies that provide some of this insurance. This lawsuit
is similar to the lawsuit described under Refractory Claims
Insurance above that seeks to prevent insurance companies
from unilaterally modifying the terms of existing coverage-
in-place agreements.

construction claims insurance
Nearly all of our construction asbestos claims relate to
Brown & Root, Inc. operations before the 1980s. Our primary
insurance coverage for these claims was written by Highlands
Insurance Company during the time it was one of our
subsidiaries. Highlands was spun-off to our shareholders in
1996. At present, Highlands is not paying any portion of
the settlement or defense costs we incur for construction
asbestos claims. On April 5, 2000, Highlands filed a lawsuit
against us in the Delaware Chancery Court. Highlands
asserted that the insurance it wrote for Brown & Root, Inc.
that covered construction asbestos claims was terminated
by agreements between Halliburton and Highlands at the
time of the 1996 spin-off. Although we do not believe that
a termination of this insurance occurred, in March 2001, the
Chancery Court ruled that a termination did occur and that
Highlands is not obligated to provide coverage for Brown
& Root, Inc.’s asbestos claims. A three Justice panel of the
Delaware Supreme Court heard oral arguments of our appeal
of this decision on September 17, 2001. The appeal will be
reargued before the entire Delaware Supreme Court on
March 12, 2002. We believe the Chancery Court’s decision
is wrong and that the Delaware Supreme Court will reverse
and return the case to the Chancery Court for a trial on the
merits. We expect, based on an opinion from our outside legal
counsel, to ultimately prevail in this litigation. We anticipate
the Delaware Supreme Court’s decision later this year. 

In addition, on April 24, 2000, we filed a lawsuit in Harris

County, Texas, asserting that Highlands has breached its
contractual obligations to provide coverage for asbestos claims
under the policies it wrote for Brown & Root, Inc. This
lawsuit is stayed pending resolution of the Delaware litigation.
We are aware that Highland’s financial condition has
deteriorated since this litigation began. A.M. Best has reduced
its rating for Highlands to “C-” (weak) and Highlands has

54

2001  halliburton annual  report

N o t e s   t o   A n n u a l   F i n a n c i a l   S t a t e m e n t s

ceased all of its underwriting operations. However, we
believe that once the Delaware litigation is successfully
concluded in our favor as we expect, Highlands has the ability
to reimburse us for a substantial portion of the defense,
settlement and other costs we incur defending Brown &
Root, Inc. open asbestos claims. If Highlands becomes
unable to pay amounts owed to us for coverage of Brown
& Root, Inc. open asbestos claims, we have the right to
seek reimbursement from the Texas Property and Casualty
Guaranty Association. This association consists of and is
funded by all insurance companies permitted to write
insurance in Texas. It provides protection to insured parties
and claimants when an insurance company licensed in Texas
becomes insolvent. This protection is limited and there are
a number of issues that would need to be resolved if we seek
to collect from the association if Highlands becomes insolvent.

significant asbestos judgments on appeal 
During 2001 there were several adverse judgments in trial
court proceedings that are in various stages of the appeals
process. All of these judgments concern asbestos claims
involving Harbison-Walker refractory products. Each of
these appeals, however, has been stayed by the bankruptcy
court, as described in the Harbison-Walker Chapter 11
Bankruptcy section above, until at least April 4, 2002.

On November 29, 2001, the Texas District Court in Orange,

Texas, entered judgments against Dresser Industries, Inc.
on a $65 million jury verdict rendered in September 2001
in favor of five plaintiffs. The $65 million amount includes
$15 million of a $30 million judgment against Dresser
Industries, Inc. and another defendant. Dresser Industries,
Inc. is jointly and severally liable for $15 million in addition
to $65 million if the other defendant does not pay its share
of this judgment. We believe that during the trial the court
committed numerous errors, including prohibiting Dresser
Industries, Inc. from presenting evidence that the alleged
illness of the plaintiffs was caused by products of other
companies that had previously settled with the plaintiffs.
We intend to appeal this judgment and believe that the Texas
appellate courts will ultimately reverse this judgment. 
On November 29, 2001, the same District Court in
Orange, Texas, entered three additional judgments against
Dresser Industries, Inc. in the aggregate amount of $35.7
million in favor of 100 other asbestos plaintiffs. These
judgments relate to an alleged breach of purported settlement
agreements signed early in 2001 by a New Orleans lawyer
hired by Harbison-Walker, which had been defending
Dresser Industries, Inc. pursuant to the agreement by which
Harbison-Walker was spun-off by Dresser Industries, Inc.
in 1992. These settlement agreements expressly bind

Harbison-Walker Refractories Company as the obligated
party, not Dresser Industries, Inc. Dresser Industries, Inc.
intends to appeal these three judgments on the grounds
that it was not a party to the settlement agreements and it
did not authorize anyone to settle on its behalf. We believe
that these judgments are contrary to applicable law and will
be reversed.

On December 5, 2001, a jury in the Circuit Court for
Baltimore City, Maryland, returned verdicts against Dresser
Industries, Inc. and other defendants following a trial
involving refractory asbestos claims. Each of the five plaintiffs
alleges exposure to Harbison-Walker products. Dresser
Industries, Inc.’s portion of the verdicts was approximately
$30 million. Dresser Industries, Inc. believes that the trial
court committed numerous errors and that the trial evidence
did not support the verdicts. The trial court has entered
judgment on these verdicts. Dresser Industries, Inc. intends
to appeal the judgment to the Maryland Supreme Court
where we expect the judgment will be significantly
reduced, if not totally reversed.

On October 25, 2001, in the Circuit Court of Holmes
County, Mississippi, a jury verdict of $150 million was
rendered in favor of six plaintiffs against Dresser Industries,
Inc. and two other companies. Dresser Industries, Inc.’s
share of the verdict was $21.5 million. The award was for
compensatory damages. The jury did not award any punitive
damages. The trial court has entered judgment on the
verdict. We believe there were serious errors during the trial
and we intend to appeal this judgment to the Mississippi
Supreme Court. We believe the judgment will ultimately
be reversed because there was a total lack of evidence that
the plaintiffs were exposed to a Harbison-Walker product
or that they suffered compensatory damages. Also, there
were procedural errors in the selection of the jury.

Asbestos claims history. Since 1976, approximately 474,500

asbestos claims have been filed against us. Almost all of
these claims have been made in separate lawsuits in which
we are named as a defendant along with a number of other
defendants, often exceeding 100 unaffiliated defendant
companies in total. During the fourth quarter of 2001 we
received approximately 14,000 new claims, compared to
16,000 new claims in the third quarter, 27,000 new claims in
the second quarter and 18,000 new claims in the first quarter
of 2001. Included in these numbers are new Harbison-Walker
claims of approximately 4,000 in the fourth quarter and 3,000
in the third quarter. During the fourth quarter of 2001 we
closed approximately 7,000 claims, resulting in approximately
36,000 closed claims during 2001. The number of open

55

N o t e s   t o   A n n u a l   F i n a n c i a l   S t a t e m e n t s

claims pending against us at the end of each quarter of 2001
and at the end of the two preceding years is as follows:

Period Ending

The claims reported above at December 31, 2001 include

approximately 125,000 Harbison-Walker refractory related
claims that name Dresser Industries, Inc. as a defendant.
These claims were added to the open claim total during
the fourth quarter.

We manage asbestos claims to achieve settlements of valid

claims for reasonable amounts. When that is not possible,
we contest claims in court. Since 1976 we have closed
approximately 200,500 claims through settlements and court
proceedings at a total cost of approximately $150 million.
We have received or expect to receive from our insurers all
but approximately $40 million of this cost, resulting in an
average net cost per closed claim of less than $200.

Reserves for asbestos claims. We have accrued reserves for
our estimate of our liability for known open asbestos claims.
We have not accrued reserves for unknown claims that may
be filed against us in the future. Our estimate of the cost of
resolving open claims is based on our historical litigation
experience on closed claims, completed settlements and our
estimate of amounts we will recover from insurance
companies. Our estimate of recoveries from insurance
companies with which we have coverage-in-place agreements
is based on those agreements. In those instances in which
agreements are still in negotiation or in litigation, our estimate
is based on our expectation of our ultimate recovery from
insurance companies. We believe that the insurance
companies with which we have signed agreements will be
able to meet their obligations under these agreements for
the amounts due to us. A summary of our reserves for open
claims and corresponding insurance recoveries is as follows:

December 31
Millions of dollars 
Asbestos litigation claims 
Estimated insurance recoveries:

2001
$ 737

2000
$80

Highlands Insurance Company 
Other insurance carriers 
Insurance for asbestos litigation claims 
Net liability for known open asbestos claims 

(45)
(567)
(612)
$ 125

(39)
(12)
(51)
$29

These insurance receivables and reserves are included in
noncurrent assets and liabilities due to the extended time
periods involved to settle claims.

In addition to these asbestos reserves, our accounts
receivable include $35 million we expect to collect from
Highlands Insurance Company for settlements and defense
costs we have already incurred for construction asbestos
claims. If we are ultimately unsuccessful in the Highlands
litigation, we will be unable to collect this $35 million as
well as the $45 million estimated recovery from Highlands
included in our asbestos reserves summarized above. If this
occurs, it may have a material adverse impact on the results
of our operations and our financial position at that time.

Accounts receivable for billings to other insurance companies

for payments made on asbestos claims were $18 million at
December 31, 200l and $13 million at December 31, 2000.
We have not accrued reserves for unknown claims that
may be asserted against us in the future. We have not had
sufficient information to make a reasonable estimate of
future claims. However, we recently retained a leading claim
evaluation firm to assist us in making an estimate of our
potential liability for asbestos claims that may be asserted
against us in the future. When the evaluation firm’s analysis
is completed it is likely that we will accrue a material liability
for future claims that may be asserted against us. We expect
the analysis will be completed during the second quarter of
2002 and that we will accrue the liability at the end of the
quarter. At the same time we will accrue a receivable for
related insurance proceeds we expect to collect when future
claims are actually paid.

The uncertainties of asbestos claim litigation and resolution
of the litigation with insurance companies described above
make it difficult to accurately predict the results of the
ultimate resolution of asbestos claims. That uncertainty is
increased by the possibility of adverse court rulings or new
legislation affecting asbestos claim litigation or the settlement
process. Subject to these uncertainties and based on our
experience defending asbestos claims and our estimate of
amounts we will recover from insurance, we believe that
the open asbestos claims pending against us will be resolved
without a material adverse effect on our financial position
or the results of our operations.

Fort Ord litigation. Brown & Root Services, now

operating as Kellogg Brown & Root, has been a defendant
in civil litigation pending in federal court in Sacramento,
California. The lawsuit alleges that Brown & Root Services
violated provisions of the False Claims Act while performing
work for the United States Army at Fort Ord in California.
This lawsuit was filed by a former employee in 1997. On
February 8, 2002, this lawsuit and a related grand jury

56

N o t e s   t o   A n n u a l   F i n a n c i a l   S t a t e m e n t s

investigation were settled. Kellogg Brown & Root made a
$2 million payment to the United States government and
paid the former employee’s legal expenses. Kellogg Brown
& Root denied wrongdoing and did not admit liability. The
United States agreed to suspend further investigation and
forgo any further sanctions with regard to the Ft. Ord
contract. Kellogg Brown & Root’s ability to perform further
work for the United States government has not been impaired. 

BJ Services patent litigation. On March 17, 2000, BJ
Services Company filed a lawsuit against us in the United
States District Court in Houston, Texas. The lawsuit alleges
that a well fracturing fluid system used by Halliburton Energy
Services infringes a patent issued to BJ in January 2000 for
a method of well fracturing using a specific fracturing fluid.
A jury trial is scheduled for March 2002. We expect BJ will
seek several hundred million dollars of damages and an
injunction to prevent us from using one of our competing
fracturing fluids. We also expect BJ to allege that we
intentionally infringed its patent and to seek treble damages.
We do not believe we have infringed BJ’s patent and we
have filed a counterclaim that the patent is invalid and
unenforceable. We also believe that BJ’s large damage claims
are unsupportable. We believe that we have no liability for
infringement of the BJ patent. However, if the patent is
found to be enforceable and we are found to have infringed
it, we could be held liable for damages in an amount that
has a material adverse effect on our financial position and
the results of our operations.

Environmental. We are subject to numerous environmental
legal and regulatory requirements related to our operations
worldwide. We take a proactive approach to evaluating and
addressing the environmental impact of our operations. Each
year we assess and remediate contaminated properties in
order to avoid future liabilities and comply with legal and
regulatory requirements. On occasion we are involved in
specific environmental litigation and claims, including the
clean-up of properties we own or have operated as well as
efforts to meet or correct compliance-related matters.

We also incur costs related to compliance with ever-
changing environmental, legal and regulatory requirements
in the jurisdictions where we operate. It is very difficult to
quantify the potential liabilities. We do not expect these
expenditures to have a material adverse effect on our
consolidated financial position or our results of operations.

During the second quarter of 2001, we accrued $15 million

for environmental matters related to liabilities retained on
properties included in the sale of Dresser Equipment Group.
Our accrued liabilities for environmental matters were
$49 million as of December 31, 2001 and $31 million as of
December 31, 2000.

Other. We are a party to various other legal proceedings.
We expense the cost of legal fees related to these proceedings.
We believe any liabilities we may have arising from these
proceedings will not be material to our consolidated financial
position or results of operations.

Letters of credit. In the normal course of business, we
have agreements with banks under which approximately
$1.4 billion of letters of credit or bank guarantees were issued,
including $241 million which relate to our joint ventures’
operations. In addition, $320 million of these financial
instruments include provisions that allow the banks to require
cash collateralization if debt ratings of either rating agency
fall below the rating of BBB by Standard & Poor’s or Baa2
by Moody’s and $149 million where banks may require cash
collateralization if either debt rating falls below investment
grade. These letters of credit and bank guarantees relate to
our guaranteed performance or retention payments under
our long-term contracts and self-insurance. In the past, no
significant claims have been made against these financial
instruments. We do not anticipate material losses to occur
as a result of these financial instruments.

850,000 and 2.1 million shares of Halliburton common stock.
Excluded from the computation of diluted income per share
are options to purchase 10 million shares of common stock
in 2001, 1 million shares in 2000 and 2 million shares in 1999.

asset related charges
As a result of the reorganization of the engineering and
construction businesses, we took actions in the fourth quarter
of 2000 to rationalize our cost structure including write-offs
of equipment, engineering reference designs and capitalized
software. Cost of services includes $20 million of charges
for equipment, licenses and engineering reference designs
related to specific projects that were discontinued as a
result of the reorganization. Equipment and licenses with a
net book value of $10 million were abandoned. Engineering
reference designs specific to a project with a net book value
of $4 million were written off. Software developed for
internal use with a net book value of $6 million which we
no longer plan to use due to standardization of systems was
also written off.

personnel charges
Personnel charges of $16 million include severance and related
costs incurred for the planned reduction of approximately
30 senior management positions. As of December 31, 2001
payments of $11 million had been made and the elimination
of personnel was substantially complete. In January 2002,
the last of the planned personnel actions was completed.

NOTE 12.
CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING METHOD
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets.” Effective January 1, 2002, goodwill will no longer
be amortized but will be tested for impairment as set forth
in the statement. We have reviewed this new statement
and have determined that our reporting units as defined
under SFAS No. 142 will be the same as our reportable
operating segments; Energy Services Group and Engineering
and Construction Group. We have completed our step one
goodwill impairment analysis as of January 1, 2002 to
estimate the fair value of each of our reporting units and that
analysis indicates that we do not have a goodwill impairment
as a result of adopting SFAS No. 142. Amortization of goodwill
for 2001 totaled $42 million pretax and $38 million after-tax.
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board

issued SFAS No. 141 “Business Combinations” which
requires the purchase method of accounting for business
combination transactions initiated after June 30, 2001. The
statement requires that goodwill recorded on acquisitions
completed prior to July 1, 2001 be amortized through
December 31, 2001. Goodwill amortization is precluded on
acquisitions completed after June 30, 2001.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and for Hedging Activities”, subsequently amended by
SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138. This standard requires
entities to recognize all derivatives on the statement of
financial position as assets or liabilities and to measure the
instruments at fair value. Accounting for gains and losses
from changes in those fair values is specified in the standard
depending on the intended use of the derivative and other
criteria. We adopted SFAS No. 133 effective January 2001
and recorded a gain of $1 million after-tax for the cumulative
effect of adopting the change in accounting method. We do
not expect future measurements at fair value under the
new accounting method to have a material effect on our
financial condition or results of operations.

In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants issued Statement of Position 98-5 “Reporting
on the Costs of Start-Up Activities.” This Statement requires
costs of start-up activities and organization costs to be
expensed as incurred. We adopted Statement of Position
98-5 effective January 1, 1999 and recorded expense of $30
million pretax or $19 million after-tax or $0.04 per diluted
share. The components of the $30 million pretax cost, all
contained within the Energy Services Group, that were
previously deferred include:

• $23 million for mobilization costs associated with specific
contracts and for installation of offshore cementing
equipment onto third party marine drilling rigs or
vessels; and

• $ 7 million for costs incurred opening a new 
manufacturing facility in the United Kingdom.

2000, and 9.5 million options exercisable with a weighted
average exercise price of $28.96 at December 31, 1999.

All stock options under the 1993 Stock and Long-Term
Incentive Plan, including options granted to employees of
Dresser Industries, Inc. since its acquisition, are granted at
the fair market value of the common stock at the grant date.
The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted
average assumptions and resulting fair values of options
granted are as follows:

Stock options generally expire 10 years from the grant
date. Stock options under the 1993 Stock and Long-Term
Incentive Plan vest ratably over a three or four year period.
Other plans have vesting periods ranging from three to 10
years. Options under the Non-Employee Directors’ Plan
vest after six months.

We account for the option plans in accordance with

Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, under which
no compensation cost has been recognized for stock option
awards other than for restricted stock grants. Compensation
cost for the stock option programs calculated consistent with
SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,”
is set forth on a pro forma basis below:

Restricted shares awarded under the 1993 Stock and
Long-Term Incentive Plan were 1,484,034 in 2001, 695,692
in 2000 and 352,267 in 1999. The shares awarded are net of
forfeitures of 170,050 in 2001, 69,402 in 2000 and 72,483 in
1999. The weighted average fair market value per share at
the date of grant of shares granted was $30.90 in 2001, $42.25
in 2000 and $43.41 in 1999.

Our Restricted Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors
allows for each non-employee director to receive an annual
award of 400 restricted shares of common stock as a part of
compensation. We reserved 100,000 shares of common stock

for issuance to non-employee directors. Under this plan we
issued 4,800 restricted shares in 2001, 3,600 restricted shares
in 2000 and 4,800 restricted shares in 1999. At December 31,
2001, 33,600 shares have been issued to non-employee
directors under this plan. The weighted average fair market
value per share at the date of grant of shares granted was
$34.35 in 2001, $46.81 in 2000 and $46.13 in 1999.

Our Employees’ Restricted Stock Plan was established
for employees who are not officers, for which 200,000 shares
of common stock have been reserved. At December 31, 2001,
153,050 shares (net of 42,350 shares forfeited) have been
issued. Forfeitures were 800 in 2001, 6,450 in 2000 and 8,400
in 1999. No further grants are being made under this plan.
Under the terms of our Career Executive Incentive
Stock Plan, 15 million shares of our common stock were
reserved for issuance to officers and key employees at a
purchase price not to exceed par value of $2.50 per share.
At December 31, 2001, 11.7 million shares (net of 2.2 million
shares forfeited) have been issued under the plan. No further
grants will be made under the Career Executive Incentive
Stock Plan.

Restricted shares issued under the 1993 Stock and Long-

Term Incentive Plan, Restricted Stock Plan for Non-
Employee Directors, Employees’ Restricted Stock Plan
and the Career Executive Incentive Stock Plan are limited
as to sale or disposition. These restrictions lapse periodically
over an extended period of time not exceeding 10 years.
Restrictions may also lapse for early retirement and other
conditions in accordance with our established policies. The
fair market value of the stock, on the date of issuance, is being
amortized and charged to income (with similar credits to paid-
in capital in excess of par value) generally over the average
period during which the restrictions lapse. At December 31,
2001, the unamortized amount is $87 million. We recognized
compensation costs of $23 million in 2001, $18 million in
2000 and $11 million in 1999.

On April 25, 2000, our Board of Directors approved plans

to implement a share repurchase program for up to 44
million shares. We repurchased 1.2 million shares at a cost
of $25 million in 2001 and 20.4 million shares at a cost of
$759 million in 2000.

SERIES A JUNIOR PARTICIPATING
PREFERRED STOCK
We previously declared a dividend of one preferred stock
purchase right on each outstanding share of common stock.
The dividend is also applicable to each share of our common
stock that was issued subsequent to adoption of the Rights

61

N o t e s   t o   A n n u a l   F i n a n c i a l   S t a t e m e n t s

Agreement entered into with Mellon Investor Services
LLC. Each preferred stock purchase right entitles its holder
to buy one two-hundredth of a share of our Series A Junior
Participating Preferred Stock, without par value, at an
exercise price of $75. These preferred stock purchase rights
are subject to anti-dilution adjustments, which are described
in the Rights Agreement entered into with Mellon. The
preferred stock purchase rights do not have any voting rights
and are not entitled to dividends.

The preferred stock purchase rights become exercisable

in limited circumstances involving a potential business
combination. After the preferred stock purchase rights
become exercisable, each preferred stock purchase right will
entitle its holder to an amount of our common stock, or in
some circumstances, securities of the acquirer, having a total
market value equal to two times the exercise price of the
preferred stock purchase right. The preferred stock purchase
rights are redeemable at our option at any time before they
become exercisable. The preferred stock purchase rights
expire on December 15, 2005. No event during 2001 made
the preferred stock purchase rights exercisable.

NOTE 16.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND 
RISK MANAGEMENT
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and for Hedging Activities”, subsequently amended by
SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138. This standard requires
entities to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet as
assets or liabilities and to measure the instruments at fair
value. Accounting for gains and losses from changes in those
fair values are specified in the standard depending on the
intended use of the derivative and other criteria. We adopted
SFAS No. 133 effective January 2001 and recorded a 
$1 million after-tax credit for the cumulative effect of
adopting the change in accounting method. We do not expect
future measurements at fair value under the new accounting
method to have a material effect on our financial condition
or results of operations.

Foreign exchange risk. Techniques in managing foreign

exchange risk include, but are not limited to, foreign
currency borrowing and investing and the use of currency
derivative instruments. We selectively manage significant
exposures to potential foreign exchange losses considering
current market conditions, future operating activities and
the associated cost in relation to the perceived risk of loss.
The purpose of our foreign currency risk management
activities is to protect us from the risk that the eventual
dollar cash flows resulting from the sale and purchase of

products and services in foreign currencies will be
adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. We do not
hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or
speculative purposes.

We manage our currency exposure through the use of
currency derivative instruments as it relates to the major
currencies, which are generally the currencies of the
countries for which we do the majority of our international
business. These contracts generally have an expiration date
of two years or less. Forward exchange contracts, which are
commitments to buy or sell a specified amount of a foreign
currency at a specified price and time, are generally used to
manage identifiable foreign currency commitments.
Forward exchange contracts and foreign exchange option
contracts, which convey the right, but not the obligation, to
sell or buy a specified amount of foreign currency at a
specified price, are generally used to manage exposures
related to assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign
currency. None of the forward or option contracts are
exchange traded. While derivative instruments are subject
to fluctuations in value, the fluctuations are generally offset
by the value of the underlying exposures being managed.
The use of some contracts may limit our ability to benefit
from favorable fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

Foreign currency contracts are not utilized to manage
exposures in some currencies due primarily to the lack of
available markets or cost considerations (non-traded
currencies). We attempt to manage our working capital
position to minimize foreign currency commitments in
non-traded currencies and recognize that pricing for the
services and products offered in these countries should cover
the cost of exchange rate devaluations. We have historically
incurred transaction losses in non-traded currencies.

Assets, liabilities and forecasted cash flows denominated 
in foreign currencies. We utilize the derivative instruments
described above to manage the foreign currency exposures
related to certain assets and liabilities, which are denomi-
nated in foreign currencies; however, we have not elected
to account for these instruments as hedges for accounting
purposes. Additionally, we utilize the derivative instruments
described above to manage forecasted cash flows denomi-
nated in foreign currencies generally related to long-term
engineering and construction projects. While we enter into
these instruments to manage the foreign currency risk on
these projects, we have chosen not to seek hedge accounting
treatment for these contracts. The fair value of these
contracts was immaterial as of the end of 2001 and 2000.
Notional amounts and fair market values. The notional
amounts of open forward contracts and options for continuing
operations were $505 million at December 31, 2001 and

62

2001  halliburton annual  report

N o t e s   t o   A n n u a l   F i n a n c i a l   S t a t e m e n t s

$281 million at December 31, 2000. Amounts related to
discontinued operations were $61 million at December 31,
2000. The notional amounts of our foreign exchange
contracts do not generally represent amounts exchanged by
the parties, and thus, are not a measure of our exposure or of
the cash requirements relating to these contracts. The
amounts exchanged are calculated by reference to the
notional amounts and by other terms of the derivatives,
such as exchange rates.

Credit risk. Financial instruments that potentially subject us
to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash equivalents,
investments and trade receivables. It is our practice to place
our cash equivalents and investments in high-quality
securities with various investment institutions. We derive
the majority of our revenues from sales and services, including
engineering and construction, to the energy industry. Within
the energy industry, trade receivables are generated from a
broad and diverse group of customers. There are concentra-
tions of receivables in the United States and the United
Kingdom. We maintain an allowance for losses based upon
the expected collectibility of all trade accounts receivable.

There are no significant concentrations of credit risk with
any individual counterparty related to our derivative contracts.
We select counterparties based on their profitability, balance
sheet and a capacity for timely payment of financial
commitments which is unlikely to be adversely affected
by foreseeable events.

Interest rate risk. We have several debt instruments
outstanding which have both fixed and variable interest
rates. We manage our ratio of fixed to variable-rate debt
through the use of different types of debt instruments and
derivative instruments.

Fair market value of financial instruments. The estimated

fair market value of long-term debt at year-end 2001 was
$1.3 billion and in 2000 was $1.1 billion as compared to the
carrying amount of $1.5 billion at year-end 2001 and 
$1.1 billion at year-end 2000. The fair market value of fixed
rate long-term debt is based on quoted market prices for
those or similar instruments. The carrying amount of variable
rate long-term debt approximates fair market value because
these instruments reflect market changes to interest rates.
See Note 8. The carrying amount of short-term financial
instruments, cash and equivalents, receivables, short-term
notes payable and accounts payable, as reflected in the
consolidated balance sheets approximates fair market value
due to the short maturities of these instruments. The
currency derivative instruments are carried on the balance
sheet at fair value and are based upon third-party quotes.
The fair market values of derivative instruments used for
fair value hedging and cash flow hedging were immaterial.

NOTE 17.
RETIREMENT PLANS
Our company and subsidiaries have various plans which
cover a significant number of their employees. These plans
include defined contribution plans, which provide retire-
ment contributions in return for services rendered, provide
an individual account for each participant and have terms
that specify how contributions to the participant’s account
are to be determined rather than the amount of pension
benefits the participant is to receive. Contributions to these
plans are based on pretax income and/or discretionary
amounts determined on an annual basis. Our expense for
the defined contribution plans for both continuing and
discontinued operations totaled $129 million in 2001
compared to $140 million in 2000 and $111 million in 1999.
Other retirement plans include defined benefit plans,
which define an amount of pension benefit to be provided,
usually as a function of age, years of service or compensa-
tion. These plans are funded to operate on an actuarially
sound basis. Plan assets are primarily invested in cash,
short-term investments, real estate, equity and fixed
income securities of entities domiciled in the country of
the plan’s operation. Plan assets, expenses and obligations
for retirement plans in the following tables include both
continuing and discontinued operations.

We recognized an additional minimum pension liability
for the underfunded defined benefit plans. The additional
minimum liability is equal to the excess of the accumulated
benefit obligation over plan assets and accrued liabilities. A
corresponding amount is recognized as either an intangible
asset or a reduction of shareholders’ equity.

Postretirement medical plan. We offer postretirement

medical plans to specific eligible employees. For some plans,
our liability is limited to a fixed contribution amount for
each participant or dependent. The plan participants share
the total cost for all benefits provided above our fixed
contribution and participants’ contributions are adjusted as
required to cover benefit payments. We have made no
commitment to adjust the amount of our contributions;
therefore, the computed accumulated postretirement benefit
obligation amount is not affected by the expected future
health care cost inflation rate.

Other postretirement medical plans are contributory but
we generally absorb the majority of the costs. We may elect
to adjust the amount of our contributions for these plans.
As a result, the expected future health care cost inflation rate
affects the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
amount. These plans have assumed health care trend rates
(weighted based on the current year benefit obligation) for
2001 of 11% which are expected to decline to 5% by 2005.

NOTE 18.
DRESSER INDUSTRIES, INC. FINANCIAL
INFORMATION
Since becoming a wholly owned subsidiary, Dresser
Industries, Inc. has ceased filing periodic reports with the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Dresser
Industries, Inc. 8% guaranteed senior notes, which were
initially issued by Baroid Corporation, remain outstanding
and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Halliburton.
In January 1999, as part of the legal reorganization associated
with the merger, Halliburton Delaware, Inc., a first-tier
holding company subsidiary, was merged into Dresser
Industries, Inc. The majority of our operating assets and
activities are included in Dresser Industries, Inc. and its
subsidiaries. In August 2000, the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission released a new rule governing the
financial statements of guarantors and issuers of guaranteed
securities registered with the SEC. The following condensed
consolidating financial information presents Halliburton
and our subsidiaries on a stand-alone basis using the equity
method and as if our current organizational structure were
in place for all periods presented.
