“YOU CALL, WE HAUL.”  Crews like this one in Mission are
a big reason why Halliburton is the “go-to” supplier of frac
services to South Texas. That, and the right tools: our one-
of-a-kind HT-2000 pump, the only 2000 HHP pump designed
to work at 20,000 psi; our high-tech, temperature-busting
SiroccoSM fracturing system and Expedite SM XT proppant
flowback control. Five wells treated with these technologies
increased production revenues some $1.5 million in eight
days. Halliburton’s “you call, we haul” tradition meets the
21st century.

THE NEW BENCHMARK. The result of a collaboration between Sperry-Sun
and Japan National Oil Corporation (JNOC), the Geo-Pilot system introduces
a new approach to rotary steerable drilling – point the bit. Using Security

DBS’ FullDrift™ extended-gauge bits, the Geo-Pilot system produces

unparalleled borehole quality, improved drilling efficiency and reliability,
and lower drilling costs – even under extreme North Slope conditions
where wellheads must be housed in special buildings (see above). Coupled

with the Geo-Span downlink system™ that provides full-time, two-way

communication, the Geo-Pilot system can change directions on-the-fly while
on bottom drilling. It’s the new benchmark in rotary steerable technology.

GREAT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, GREAT FOR BUSINESS. Accolade’s exceptional properties provide
minimized swab and surge pressures, one of the most desired qualities in deepwater drilling fluids.
It reduces lost circulation, supplies better hole-cleaning efficiency and stability, and provides 
superior rates of penetration. It also dramatically cuts fluid losses and consumption – in some 
cases by 80 percent. For one customer, Accolade saved $3.8 million in reduced mud costs and rig
time. That’s great for the environment. Great for business.

FIRST OIL IN 2005. With four offshore platforms, a major onshore terminal expansion, 600 kilometers
of subsea pipelines and the biggest water injection pumps ever manufactured, Azeri is among the
world’s largest infrastructure projects. Materials must be brought in through canals that are frozen
during winter. Local fabrication yards and marine equipment/vessels have required major upgrades.
Topsides weighing 15,000 tonnes must be barge loaded and floated over four platform jackets
constructed from launch frames, like the one above. Despite the challenges, KBR Engineering is on
schedule, with first oil expected in early 2005.

WHAT KBR DOES BEST. Many of KBR’s activities may seem surprising for an E&C company. Like
teaching people to make bricks and build homes, running a health clinic, or enabling home loans.
But the client is committed to responsible development. Meanwhile, with 270 well sites, miles of
gathering lines and related facilities, and an ambitious schedule, it’s an immense undertaking, and
KBR must deliver. So far, KBR has achieved 25 million incident-free work hours – and counting.

THE TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE. A winner of Halliburton’s HSE Award this year, Halliburton de Mexico has
an incredible safety record. After starting a driver safety program in 1997, the vehicle accident rate
plunged. But the team members weren’t satisfied. They started training families covered by Halliburton’s
employee medical insurance plan. Now, they’re training drivers who interact with Halliburton every
day, reducing the accident rate and serving the community at the same time – the bottom line of a
successful HSE policy.

Our business is organized in the following two business

segments:

• Energy Services Group; and

• Engineering and Construction Group.

H a l l i b u r t o n   C o m p a n y

Activity levels within our two business segments are

significantly impacted by the following:

• spending on upstream exploration, development and

production programs by major, national and independent
oil and gas companies;

• capital expenditures for downstream refining, processing,
petrochemical and marketing facilities by major, national
and independent oil and gas companies; and

• government spending levels.

Also impacting our activity is the status of the global

economy, which indirectly impacts oil and gas consumption,

demand for petrochemical products and investment in

infrastructure projects.

Natural gas prices have been impacted by an abnormally

resulting in reduced gas storage levels. As of January 31,

2003, working gas in storage was 1,521 billion cubic feet,

commonly referred to as bcf, according to Energy

Information Administration estimates. These stocks were

811 bcf less than last year at this time and 287 bcf below

the 5-year average of 1,808 bcf. At 1,521 bcf, total working

gas in storage is within the 5-year historical range. While

gas prices in the United States have historically varied

somewhat geographically, this winter we have seen

significantly higher fluctuations in regional gas prices in the

United States. For example, while the price averaged

$4.27 per mcf in the fourth quarter at Henry Hub, it was

less than $2.00 per mcf in various parts of the Western

United States. This is resulting in significant variation in

gas drilling activity by region in the United States and

States, where the rig count dropped 28% from an average of

1,155 in 2001 to 831 in 2002, with the majority of this

decline due to reduced gas drilling. In the past, there has

The decreased rig activity in 2002 from 2001 in the United

States has increased pressure on the oilfield services

product service lines to discount prices. The price increases

we implemented last year have mostly been eroded by

additional discounts. Our pressure pumping product service

line has been significantly impacted by the current economic

slowdown due to its dependence on United States gas drilling.

It is common practice in the United States oilfield services

industry to sell services and products based on a price

book and then apply discounts to the price book based upon

a variety of factors. The discounts applied typically increase

to partially or substantially offset price book increases

in the weeks immediately following a price increase. The

discount applied normally decreases over time if the

activity levels remain strong. During periods of reduced

activity, discounts normally increase, reducing the net

revenue for our services and conversely during periods of

higher activity, discounts normally decline resulting in

net revenue increasing for our services.

During 2000 and 2001, we implemented several price

book increases. In July 2000, as a result of increased

drilling and longer term contracts, has remained relatively

strong despite the overall decline in the energy industry.

Our operations have also been impacted by political and

economic instability in Indonesia and in Latin America. In

Latin America, the impact was primarily in Argentina in

the earlier part of 2002 and then in Venezuela toward the

end of 2002, due to political unrest related to the national

strike. We also experienced disruptions due to Tropical

Storm Isidore and Hurricane Lili in the Gulf of Mexico.

Based upon data from Spears and Associates, drilling

activity in the United States and Canada in 2003 is expected

to increase compared to overall 2002 levels and compared

to the fourth quarter 2002. This reflects the current level of

oil and gas prices and tight supplies. International drilling

activity is expected to remain constant with fourth quarter

consumable materials costs and a tight labor market causing

2002 levels.

Cost reimbursable contracts include contracts where the

price is variable based upon actual costs incurred for time

and materials, or for variable quantities of work priced at

defined unit rates. Profit elements on cost reimbursable

contracts may be based upon a percentage of costs incurred

and/or a fixed amount. Cost reimbursable contracts are

generally less risky, since the owner retains many of the

risks. While fixed-price contracts involve greater risk,

they also potentially are more profitable for the contractor,

since the owner pays a premium to transfer many risks to

the contractor.

After careful consideration, we have decided no longer to

pursue riskier fixed-price engineering, procurement,

installation and commissioning contracts for the offshore

oil and gas industry. An important aspect of our 2002

reorganization was to look closely at each of our businesses

to ensure that they are self-sufficient, including their use of

capital and liquidity. In that process, we found that the

engineering, procurement, installation and commissioning

offshore business was using a disproportionate share of our

bonding and letter of credit capacity relative to its profit

contribution. The risk/reward relationship in that segment

is no longer attractive to us. We provide a range of

engineering, fabrication and project management services to

the offshore industry, which we will continue to service

We have substantially completed a corporate reorganization

commenced in 2002 intended to restructure our businesses

into two operating subsidiary groups, the Energy Services

Group and KBR, representing the Engineering and

Construction Group. As part of this reorganization, we are

separating and consolidating the entities in our Energy

Services Group together as direct and indirect subsidiaries

of Halliburton Energy Services, Inc. We are also separating

and consolidating the entities in our Engineering and

Construction Group together as direct and indirect

subsidiaries of the former Dresser Industries Inc., which

became a limited liability company during the second

quarter of 2002 and was renamed DII Industries, LLC. The

reorganization of business operations facilitated the

separation, organizationally, financially and operationally, of

our two business segments, which we believe will

significantly improve operating efficiencies in both, while

streamlining management and easing manpower

requirements. In addition, many support functions that were

previously shared were moved into the two business groups.

Although we have no specific plans currently, the

reorganization would facilitate separation of the ownership

of the two businesses in the future if we identify an

opportunity that produces greater value for our shareholders

than continuing to own both businesses.

compared to costs prior to the corporate reorganization.

As a part of the reorganization, we decided that the

operations of Major Projects, Granherne and Production

Services were better aligned with KBR in the current

business environment and these businesses were moved

from the Energy Services Group to the Engineering and

On a geographic basis, our oilfield services revenues were

as follows:

• North American revenue decreased 24% across all product

service lines due to lower rig activity;

• Latin American revenue decreased 8% primarily as a

result of decreases in Argentina due to currency

brought on by uncertain market and political conditions
and the national strike; and

in connection with the transaction, revenues for the balance

of the segment would have decreased $79 million for 2002

as compared to 2001 due to lower subsea activity. Partially

offsetting the lower subsea activity, Landmark revenues

• Offshore revenues increased 26% due to progress on the

Barracuda-Caratinga project in Brazil and the Belenak
project in Indonesia;

• Infrastructure revenues increased by 22% due to

increased progress on the Alice Springs to Darwin Rail

• Onshore revenues increased by 25% primarily due to
progress on several new projects in 2002 including gas

• Government Operations revenues were 15% lower due to

completion of a major project at our shipyard in the

I n t e r e s t   e x p e n s e   of $113 million for 2002 decreased $34

The template settlement agreement with attorneys

representing current claimants grants the attorneys a right

to terminate the definitive settlement agreement on ten

days’ notice if DII Industries does not file a plan of

reorganization on or before April 1, 2003. We are conducting

due diligence on the asbestos claims, which is not expected

to be completed by April 1, 2003. Therefore, we do not

expect DII Industries to file a plan of reorganization prior to

April 1. Although there can be no assurances, we do not

believe the claimants’ attorneys will terminate the

settlement agreements on April 1, 2003 as long as adequate

progress is being made toward a Chapter 11 filing.

We have begun our due diligence review of current

asbestos claims. While these results are preliminary and

not necessarily indicative of the eventual results of a

completed review of all current asbestos claims, it appears

that a substantial portion of the records for claims reviewed

to date do not provide detailed product identification. We

expect that many of these records could be supplemented

by attorneys representing the claimants to provide

additional information on product identification. However,

no assurance can be given that the additional product

identification documentation will be timely provided or

sufficient for us or the plaintiffs to proceed with the proposed

global settlement. In addition, although the medical

be implemented will require us to contribute up to $2.775

billion in cash to the Section 524(g)/105 trust established for

the benefit of claimants, which we will need to finance on

terms acceptable to us. We are pursuing a number of

financing alternatives for the cash amount to be contributed

to the trust. The availability of these alternatives depend in

large part on market conditions. We are currently negotiating

with several banks and non-bank lenders over the terms of

multiple credit facilities. A proposed banking syndicate is

currently performing due diligence in an effort to make a

funding commitment before the bankruptcy filing. We will

financing commitments are in place.

The anticipated credit facilities include:

• debtor-in-possession financing to provide for the

operating needs of the filing entities;

• a revolving line of credit for general working capital

purposes;

• a master letter of credit facility intended to ensure that

existing letters of credit supporting our contracts remain
in place during the filing; and 

• a delayed-draw term facility to be available for funding of
up to $2.775 billion to the trust for the benefit of claimants.

The delayed-draw term facility is intended to eliminate

uncertainty the capital markets might have concerning our

ability to meet our funding requirement once final and non-

appealable court confirmation of a plan of reorganization

has been obtained.

None of these credit facilities are currently in place, and

there can be no assurances that we will complete these

facilities. We are not obligated to enter into these facilities if

the terms are not acceptable to us. Moreover, these facilities

would only be available for limited periods of time. As a

result, if we were delayed in filing the Chapter 11 proceeding

or delayed in completing the plan of reorganization after a

Chapter 11 filing, the credit facilities may expire and no

longer be available. In such circumstances, we would have

to terminate the proposed settlement if replacement financing

were not available on acceptable terms.

We have sufficient authorized and unrestricted shares

to issue 59.5 million shares to the trust. No shareholder

approval is required for issuance of the shares.

C r e d i t   ra t i n g s .   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 in late 2001. In December 2002, Standard &

Poor’s lowered these ratings to BBB and A-3. These ratings

were lowered primarily due to our asbestos exposure, and

both agencies have indicated that the ratings continue

results of the proposed global settlement. Although our

long-term ratings continue at investment grade levels, the

cost of new borrowing is higher and our access to the debt

markets is more volatile at the new rating levels.

Investment grade ratings are BBB- or higher for Standard

& Poor’s and Baa3 or higher for Moody’s Investors’

Services. Our current ratings are one level above BBB- on

Standard & Poor’s and one level above Baa3 on Moody’s

Investors’ Services.

We have $350 million of committed lines of credit from

banks that are available if we maintain an investment

grade rating. This facility expires on August 16, 2006. As of

December 31, 2002, no amounts have been borrowed under

these lines.

If our debt ratings fall below investment grade, we would

also be in technical breach of a bank agreement covering

$160 million of letters of credit at December 31, 2002, which

might entitle the bank to set-off rights. In addition, a $151

million letter of credit line, of which $121 million has been

issued, includes provisions that allow the banks to require

cash collateralization for the full line if debt ratings of either

rating agency fall below the rating of BBB by Standard &

Poor’s or Baa2 by Moody’s Investors’ Services, one

downgrade from our current ratings. These letters of credit

and bank guarantees generally relate to our guaranteed

performance or retention payments under our long-term

contracts and self-insurance.

In the event the ratings of our debt by either agency fall,

we may have to issue additional debt or equity securities

or obtain additional credit facilities in order to satisfy the

cash collateralization requirements under the instruments

We base our estimates on historical experience and on

various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable

under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis

for making judgments about the carrying values of assets

and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other

P e r c e n t a g e   o f   c o m p l e t i o n

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 project;

• estimates of project schedule and completion date;

less costs incurred and estimated costs to complete.

Anticipated losses on contracts are recorded in full in the

period in which they become evident. Profits are recorded

based upon the total estimated contract profit times the

current percentage complete for the contract.

When calculating the amount of total profit or loss on a

long-term contract, we include unapproved claims as

revenue when the collection is deemed probable based upon

the four criteria for recognizing unapproved claims under

the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’

Statement of Position 81-1 “Accounting for Performance of

Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts.”

Including probable unapproved claims in this calculation

increases the operating income or decreases the operating

loss that would otherwise be recorded without consideration

of the probable unapproved claims. Probable unapproved

claims are recorded to the extent of costs incurred and include

no profit element. In substantially all cases, the probable

unapproved claims included in determining contract profit or

loss are less than the actual claim that will be or has been

presented to the customer. We actively engage in claims

negotiations with our customers and the success of claims

negotiations have a direct impact on the profit or loss

recorded for any related long-term contract. Unsuccessful

future costs, including but not limited to weather,

the accuracy of our estimates and materially impact our

future reported earnings.

A l l o wa n c e   f o r   b a d   d e b t s

We evaluate our accounts receivable through a continuous

process of assessing our portfolio on an individual customer

and overall basis. This process comprises a thorough review

of historical collection experience, current aging status of

the customer accounts, financial condition of our customers,

and other factors such as whether the receivables involve

retentions or billing disputes. We also consider the economic

environment of our customers, both from a marketplace and

geographic perspective, in evaluating the need for an

allowance. Based on our review of these factors, we establish

or adjust allowances for specific customers and the accounts

receivable portfolio as a whole. This process involves a high

degree of judgment and estimation and frequently involves

significant dollar amounts. Accordingly, our results of

operations can be affected by adjustments to the allowance

due to actual write-offs that differ from estimated amounts.

• a deferred tax liability or asset is recognized for the

estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary
differences and carryforwards;

• the measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities
and assets is based on provisions of the enacted tax law
and the effects of potential future changes in tax laws or
rates are not considered; and

• the value of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary,

by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available
evidence, are not expected to be realized.

We determine deferred taxes separately for each tax-paying

component (an entity or a group of entities that is

consolidated for tax purposes) in each tax jurisdiction. That

determination includes the following procedures:

• identify the types and amounts of existing temporary

differences;

• measure the total deferred tax liability for taxable

temporary differences using the applicable tax rate;

• measure the total deferred tax asset for deductible

temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards
using the applicable tax rate;

• measure the deferred tax assets for each type of tax

credit carryforward; and

• reduce the deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance

will not be realized prior to expiration, or that future

deferred tax assets in the future, such as utilization of

foreign tax credits. This process involves making forecasts of

current and future years’ United States taxable income,

foreign taxable income and related taxes in order to

estimate the foreign tax credits. Unforeseen events, such as

the timing of asbestos or silica settlements, and other tax

timing issues may significantly affect these estimates. These

factors can affect the accuracy of our tax account balances

and impact our future reported earnings.

L o s s   c o n t i n g e n c i e s

A s b e s t o s .   Prior to June 2002, we provided for known out-

standing asbestos and silica claims because we did not have

sufficient information to make a reasonable estimate of

future unknown asbestos claims liability. DII Industries

retained Dr. Francine F. Rabinovitz of Hamilton,

Rabinovitz & Alschuler, Inc. to estimate the probable number

and value, including defense costs, of unresolved current

and future asbestos and silica related bodily injury claims

asserted against DII Industries and its subsidiaries.

Dr. Rabinovitz’s estimates are based on historical data

supplied by DII Industries, KBR and Harbison-Walker and

publicly available studies, including annual surveys by the

National Institutes of Health concerning the incidence of

mesothelioma deaths. In her analysis, Dr. Rabinovitz

projected that the elevated and historically unprecedented

rate of claim filings of the last two years (particularly in

2000 and 2001), especially as expressed by the ratio of

nonmalignant claim filings to malignant claim filings, would

continue into the future for five more years. After that,

Dr. Rabinovitz projected that the ratio of nonmalignant

claim filings to malignant claim filings will gradually

decrease for a 10 year period ultimately returning to the

historical claiming rate and claiming ratio. In making her

calculation, Dr. Rabinovitz alternatively assumed a

somewhat lower rate of claim filings, based on an average of

the last five years of claims experience, would continue into

the future for five more years and decrease thereafter.

Other important assumptions utilized in Dr. Rabinovitz’s

estimates, which we relied upon in making our accrual are:

and silica claims liabilities. As a result of negotiating the

proposed global settlement, we have determined that the

best estimate of the probable loss is $3.4 billion ($3.5 billion

estimate as of June 30, 2002 in Dr. Rabinovitz’s study

less $50 million in payments in the third and fourth

quarter of 2002) and we have adjusted our liability to this

amount at December 31, 2002.

Consulting, a nationally-recognized consultant in liability

and insurance, to work with us to project the amount of

probable insurance recoveries using the current and future

asbestos and silica liabilities recorded by us at December 31,

2002. Using Dr. Rabinovitz’s estimate of liabilities through

2052 using the two-year elevated rate of asbestos and silica

claim filings, Peterson Consulting assisted us in conducting

an analysis to determine the amount of insurance that we

estimate is probable that we will recover in relation to

the projected claims and defense costs. In conducting this

analysis, Peterson Consulting:

the ability of the DII Industries’ insurers to meet their
obligations.

Based on these reviews, analyses and discussions, Peterson

Consulting assisted us in making judgments concerning

insurance coverage that we believe are reasonable and

consistent with our historical course of dealings with our

insurers and the relevant case law to determine the

probable insurance recoveries for asbestos and silica

liabilities. This analysis factored in the probable effects of

self-insurance features, such as self-insured retentions,

policy exclusions, liability caps and the financial status of

applicable insurers, and various judicial determinations

relevant to DII Industries’ insurance programs.

Based on Peterson Consulting analysis of the probable

insurance recoveries, we increased our insurance receivable

to $2.1 billion at December 31, 2002. The insurance

receivable recorded by us does not assume any recovery

from insolvent carriers and assumes that those carriers which

are currently solvent will continue to be solvent through-

out the period of the applicable recoveries in the

projections. However, there can be no assurance that these

assumptions will be accurate. The insurance receivables

recorded at December 31, 2002 do not exhaust applicable

insurance coverage for asbestos and silica related liabilities.

Projecting future events is subject to many uncertainties

that could cause the asbestos and silica related liabilities

and insurance recoveries to be higher or lower than those

projected and accrued, such as:

P o s s i b l e   A d d i t i o n a l   A c c r u a l s .   Should the proposed

global settlement become probable as defined by Statement

of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, we would

adjust our accrual for probable and reasonably estimable

liabilities for current and future asbestos and silica

claims. The settlement amount would be up to $4.0 billion,

consisting of up to $2.775 billion in cash, 59.5 million

Halliburton shares and notes with a net present value

expected to be less than $100 million. Assuming the revised

liability would be $4.0 billion, we would also increase our

probable insurance recoveries to $2.3 billion. The impact

on our income statement would be an additional pretax

charge of $322 million ($288 million after-tax). This accrual

(which values our stock to be contributed at $1.1 billion

using our stock price at December 31, 2002 of $18.71) would

then be adjusted periodically based on changes in the

market price of our common stock until the common stock is

contributed to a trust for the benefit of the claimants.

C o n t i n u i n g   R e v i e w. Given the inherent uncertainty in

making future projections, we plan to have the projections

periodically reexamined, and update them based on our

experience and other relevant factors such as changes in the

tort system, the resolution of the bankruptcies of various

asbestos defendants, and our proposed global settlement.

Similarly, we will re-evaluate our projections concerning our

probable insurance recoveries in light of any updates to Dr.

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.

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

December 31, 2002.

In the second quarter 2002, we terminated our interest

rate swap agreement on our 8% senior note. The notional

amount of the swap agreement was $139 million. This

interest rate swap was designated as a fair value hedge

under SFAS No. 133. Upon termination, the fair value of the

interest rate swap was $0.5 million. In the fourth quarter

2002, we terminated our interest rate swap agreement on

our 6% fixed rate medium-term notes. The notional amount

of the swap agreement was $150 million. This interest rate

swap was designated as a fair value hedge under SFAS No.

133. Upon termination, the fair value of the interest rate

swap was $13 million. These swaps had previously been

classified in “Other assets” on the balance sheet. The fair

value adjustment to these debt instruments that were

hedged will remain and be amortized as a reduction in

interest expense using the “Effective Yield Method” over the

remaining life of the notes.

to Iran, Iraq and Libya, all of which are significant
producers of oil and gas;

regulations that:

– encourage or mandate the hiring of local contractors;

• obtaining debtor-in-possession financing for DII Industries,

and

Kellogg, Brown & Root and their subsidiaries prior to
filing a Chapter 11 proceeding;

• reductions in our credit ratings by rating agencies, which

could result in:

– the unavailability of borrowing capacity under our 

existing $350 million line of credit facility, which is only
available to us if we maintain an investment grade 
credit rating;

– reduced access to lines of credit, credit markets and 

credit from suppliers under acceptable terms;

– borrowing costs in the future; and

– inability to issue letters of credit and surety bonds with

or without cash collateral;

• debt and letter of credit covenants;

• volatility in the surety bond market;

• availability of financing from the United States

Export/Import Bank;

• ability to raise capital via the sale of stock; and

– require foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or 
purchase supplies from, a particular jurisdiction;

• potentially adverse reaction, and time and expense

responding to, the increased scrutiny of Halliburton by
regulatory authorities, the media and others;

• potential liability and adverse regulatory reaction in

Nigeria to the theft from us of radioactive material used
in wireline logging operations;

• environmental laws and regulations, including, for

example, those that:

– require emission performance standards for facilities; and

– the potential regulation in the United States of our 

Energy Services Group’s hydraulic fracturing services 
and products as underground injection; and

• armed conflict in the Middle East that could:

– impact the demand and pricing for oil and gas;

– disrupt our operations in the region and elsewhere; and

– increase our costs for security worldwide;

– weather related damage to our facilities;

– inability to deliver materials to jobsites in accordance 

with contract schedules; and

– loss of productivity; and

• demand for natural gas in the United States drives a

disproportionate amount of our Energy Services Group’s
United States business. As a result, warmer than normal
winters in the United States are detrimental to the
demand for our services to gas producers. Conversely,
colder than normal winters in the United States result in
increased demand for our services to gas producers;

other armed conflict, the effects of terrorism, civil unrest,
strikes, currency controls and governmental actions in
many oil producing countries and countries in which we
provide governmental logistical support that could
adversely affect our revenues and profit. Countries where
we operate which have significant amounts of political
risk include Afghanistan, Algeria, Angola, Colombia,
Indonesia, Libya, Nigeria, Russia, and Venezuela. For
example, the national strike in Venezuela as well as
seizures of offshore oil rigs by protestors and cessation of
operations by some of our customers in Nigeria have
disrupted our Energy Services Group’s ability to provide
services and products to our customers in these
countries during 2002 and likely will continue to do so in
2003; and

• changes in foreign exchange rates and exchange controls
as were experienced in Argentina in late 2001 and early

the Gulf of Mexico where we have significant operations.
Impacts may include:

– evacuation of personnel and curtailment of services;

– weather related damage to offshore drilling rigs 

resulting in suspension of operations;

• the magnitude of governmental spending and outsourcing

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

• 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 including, for example, the
merger of Conoco and Phillips Petroleum, has caused
customers to reduce their capital spending which has
negatively impacted the demand for our services and
products;

• potential adverse customer reaction, including potential

draws upon letters of credit, due to their concerns
about our plans to place DII Industries, Kellogg, Brown &
Root and some of their subsidiaries into a pre-packaged
bankruptcy as part of the global settlement;

• customer personnel changes due to mergers and

consolidation which impacts the timing of contract
negotiations and settlements of claims;

• claim negotiations with engineering and construction
customers on cost and schedule variances and change
orders on major projects, including, for example, the
Barracuda-Caratinga project in Brazil; and

• ability of our customers to timely pay the amounts due us;

O F   H A L L I B U R T O N   C O M PA N Y:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance

sheet of Halliburton Company and subsidiaries as of

December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements

of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the

year then ended. These consolidated financial statements

are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our

responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated

financial statements based on our audit. The accompanying

2001 and 2000 consolidated financial statements of

Halliburton Company and subsidiaries were audited by other

auditors who have ceased operations. Those auditors

expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated

financial statements, before the restatement described in

Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements and before

the revision described in Note 22 to the consolidated financial

statements, in their report dated January 23, 2002 (except

with respect to matters discussed in Note 9 to those financial

statements, as to which the date was February 21, 2002).

We conducted our audit 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 significant estimates made by management, as well

as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for

our opinion.

In our opinion, the 2002 consolidated financial statements

referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,

the financial position of Halliburton Company and

subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and the results of

their operations and their cash flows for the year then

ended in conformity with accounting principles generally

accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed above, the 2001 and 2000 consolidated

financial statements of Halliburton Company and

subsidiaries were audited by other auditors who have

ceased operations. As described in Note 4, the Company

changed the composition of its reportable segments in 2002,

and the amounts in the 2001 and 2000 consolidated

financial statements relating to reportable segments have

been restated to conform to the 2002 composition of

reportable segments. We audited the adjustments that were

applied to restate the disclosures for reportable segments

reflected in the 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial

statements. In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate

and have been properly applied. Also, as described in Note

22, these consolidated financial statements have been

revised to include the transitional disclosures required by

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142,

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which was adopted by

the Company as of January 1, 2002. In our opinion, the

disclosures for 2001 and 2000 in Note 22 are appropriate.

However, we were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any

procedures to the 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial

statements of Halliburton Company and subsidiaries other

than with respect to such adjustments and revisions and,

accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form

of assurance on the 2001 and 2000 consolidated financial

statements taken as a whole.

and intangible assets are reviewed for impairment on an

annual basis and more frequently when negative conditions

such as significant current or projected operating losses

exist. The annual impairment test is a two-step process and

involves comparing the estimated fair value of each

reporting unit to the reporting unit’s carrying value, including

goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its

carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not

considered impaired, and the second step of the impairment

test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting

unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill

impairment test would be performed to measure the amount

of impairment loss to be recorded, if any.

expense and gains or losses on commodity derivatives are

included in operating income. During the three years ended

December 31, 2002, we did not enter into any significant

transactions to hedge commodity prices. See Note 11 for

discussion of foreign currency exchange derivatives.

monetary assets and liabilities at year-end exchange 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 under

“Cumulative translation adjustment”.

In late 1999 and early 2000 we sold our interest in two

joint ventures that were a significant portion of our

Dresser Equipment Group. These sales prompted a strategic

review of the remaining businesses within the Dresser

Equipment Group. As a result of this review, we determined

that these 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 and we

recognized a pretax gain of $498 million ($299 million after-

tax) during the second quarter of 2001. The financial results

of the Dresser Equipment Group through March 31, 2001

are presented as discontinued operations in our financial

statements. As part of the terms of the transaction, we

retained a 5.1% equity interest of Class A common stock in

the Dresser Equipment Group, which has been renamed

Dresser, Inc. In July 2002, Dresser, Inc. announced a

reorganization, and we have exchanged our shares for shares

of Dresser Ltd. Our equity interest is accounted for under

We operate in two business segments – the Energy Services

Group and the 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 first quarter of 2002, we announced plans to

restructure our businesses into two operating subsidiary

groups. One group is focused on energy services and the

other is focused on engineering and construction. As part of

this restructuring, many support functions that were

previously shared were moved into the two business groups.

We also decided that the operations of Major Projects,

Granherne and Production Services better aligned with our

Kellogg Brown & Root subsidiary, or KBR, in the current

• Other product service lines provide installation and

management and reporting purposes from the Energy

Services Group segment to the Engineering and Construction

Group segment during the second quarter of 2002. Major

Projects, which consisted of the Barracuda-Caratinga project

in Brazil, is now reported through the Offshore Operations

product line, Granherne is now reported in the Onshore

product line, and Production Services is now reported under

the Operations and Maintenance product line.

In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2000, we

combined all engineering, construction, fabrication and

project management operations into one segment, 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.

All prior period segment results have been restated to

reflect these changes.

E n e r g y   S e r v i c e s   G r o u p . The Energy Services Group

provides a wide range of discrete services and products and

integrated solutions to customers for the exploration,

development, and production of oil and gas. The customers

for this segment are major, national and independent oil and

gas companies. This segment consists of:

• Halliburton Energy Services provides oilfield services and
products including discrete products and services and
integrated solutions ranging from the initial evaluation
of producing formations to drilling, completion,
production and well maintenance. Products and services
include pressure pumping equipment and services,
logging and perforating, drilling systems and services,
drilling fluids systems, drill bits, specialized completion
and production equipment and services, well control and
integrated solutions;

• Landmark Graphics provides integrated exploration and

production software information systems, data
management services, and professional services for the
upstream oil and gas industry; and

servicing of subsea facilities and pipelines. In January
2002, we sold to Saipem, our joint venture partner, our
50% interest in European Marine Contractors Ltd., a
joint venture that provided pipeline services for offshore
customers. In May 2002, we contributed substantially
all of our Halliburton Subsea assets to a newly formed
company, Subsea 7, Inc. We own 50% of Subsea 7, Inc.
and DSND Subsea ASA owns the other 50%. In
September 2002, we sold our 50% interest in Bredero-
Shaw, a pipecoating joint venture, to our partner
ShawCor Ltd. See Note 2.

E n g i n e e r i n g   a n d   C o n s t r u c t i o n   G r o u p . The

Engineering and Construction Group provides engineering,

procurement, construction, project management, and

facilities operation and maintenance for oil and gas and

other industrial and governmental customers. The

Engineering and Construction Group, operating as KBR,

offers the following five product lines:

• Onshore operations consist of engineering and construction

activities, including engineering and construction of
liquefied natural gas, ammonia and crude oil refineries
and natural gas plants;

• Offshore operations include specialty offshore deepwater

engineering and marine technology and worldwide
fabrication capabilities;

• Government operations provide operations, construction,

maintenance and logistics activities for government
facilities and installations;

• Operations and maintenance services include plant

operations, maintenance, and start-up services for both
upstream and downstream oil, gas and petrochemical
facilities as well as operations, maintenance and logistics
services for the power, commercial and industrial
markets; and

• Infrastructure provides civil engineering, consulting and

project management services.

Billing practices for engineering and construction projects

are governed by the contract terms of each project based

upon costs incurred, achievement of milestones or pre-agreed

schedules. Billings do not necessarily correlate with revenues

recognized under the percentage of completion method of

accounting. Billings in excess of recognized revenues are

recorded in “Advance billings on uncompleted contracts”.

When billings are less than recognized revenues, the

difference is recorded in “Unbilled work on uncompleted

contracts”. With the exception of claims and change orders

which are in the process of being negotiated with customers,

unbilled work is usually billed during normal billing pro-

cesses following achievement of the contractual requirements.

Recording of profits and losses on long-term contracts

requires an estimate of the total profit or loss over the life of

each contract. This estimate requires consideration of

contract revenue, change orders and claims reduced by costs

incurred and estimated costs to complete. Anticipated losses

on contracts are recorded in full in the period they become

evident. Profits are recorded based upon the total estimated

contract profit multiplied by the current percentage

complete for the contract.

a nationally renowned expert in conducting such analyses,

has been involved in a number of asbestos-related and other

toxic tort-related valuations of current and future liabilities,

has served as the expert for three representatives of future

claimants in asbestos related bankruptcies and has had her

valuation methodologies accepted by numerous courts.

Further, the methodology utilized by Dr. Rabinovitz is the

same methodology that is utilized by the expert who is

routinely retained by the asbestos claimants committee in

asbestos-related bankruptcies. Dr. Rabinovitz estimated

the probable number and value of unresolved current and

future asbestos and silica-related bodily injury claims

asserted against DII Industries and its subsidiaries over a

50 year period. The report took approximately seven

months to complete.

M e t h o d o l o g y.   The methodology utilized by Dr. Rabinovitz

or claim exposure to products manufactured by DII

• epidemiological studies to estimate the number of people
who might allege exposure to products manufactured
by DII Industries, its predecessors and Harbison-Walker
or to Brown & Root construction and renovation projects
that would be likely to develop asbestos-related diseases.
Dr. Rabinovitz’s estimates are based on historical
data supplied by DII Industries, Kellogg, Brown & Root
and Harbison-Walker and publicly available studies,
including annual surveys by the National Institutes of
Health concerning the incidence of mesothelioma deaths.

In her estimates, Dr. Rabinovitz relied on the source data

provided by our management; she did not independently

verify the accuracy of the source data. The source data

provided by us was based on our 24-year history in

gathering claimant information and defending and settling

related liabilities and defense costs relied upon and included:

asbestos claims.

• an analysis of DII Industries, Kellogg, Brown & Root’s
and Harbison-Walker Refractories Company’s historical
asbestos settlements and defense costs to develop
average settlement values and average defense costs for
specific asbestos-related diseases and for the specific
business operation or entity allegedly responsible for the
asbestos-related diseases;

• an analysis of DII Industries’, Kellogg, Brown & Root’s
and Harbison-Walker Refractories Company’s pending
inventory of asbestos-related claims by specific asbestos-
related diseases and by the specific business operation or
entity allegedly responsible for the asbestos-related disease;

• an analysis of the claims filing history for asbestos-

related claims against DII Industries, Kellogg, Brown &
Root and Harbison-Walker Refractories Company for
the approximate two-year period from January 2000 to
May 31, 2002, and for the approximate five-year period
from January 1997 to May 31, 2002 by specific asbestos-
related disease and by business operation or entity
allegedly responsible for the asbestos-related disease;

In her analysis, Dr. Rabinovitz projected that the elevated

and historically unprecedented rate of claim filings of the

last several years (particularly in 2000 and 2001), especially

as expressed by the ratio of nonmalignant claim filings to

malignant claim filings, would continue into the future for

five more years. After that, Dr. Rabinovitz projected that the

ratio of nonmalignant claim filings to malignant claim

filings will gradually decrease for a 10 year period

ultimately returning to the historical claiming rate and

claiming ratio. In making her calculation, Dr. Rabinovitz

alternatively assumed a somewhat lower rate of claim

filings, based on an average of the last five years of claims

experience, would continue into the future for five more

years and decrease thereafter.

Other important assumptions utilized in Dr. Rabinovitz’s

estimates, which we relied upon in making our accrual are:

• there will be no legislative or other systemic changes to

the tort system;

• that we will continue to aggressively defend against

asbestos claims made against us;

than those projected and booked such as:

• the number of future asbestos-related lawsuits to be filed

against DII Industries, and Kellogg, Brown & Root;

• the average cost to resolve such future lawsuits;

• coverage issues among layers of insurers issuing different
policies to different policyholders over extended periods
of time;

• the impact on the amount of insurance recoverable in

light of the Harbison-Walker and Federal-Mogul
bankruptcies; and

• the continuing solvency of various insurance companies.

Given the inherent uncertainty in making future

projections, we plan to have the projections of current and

future asbestos and silica claims periodically reexamined,

and we will update them if needed based on our experience

and other relevant factors such as changes in the tort

system, the resolution of the bankruptcies of various

asbestos defendants and the probability of our settlement of

to KBR under the contract.

As of December 31, 2002, the project was approximately

63% complete and KBR had recorded a loss of $117 million

related to the project. The probable unapproved claims

included in determining the loss on the project were $182

million as of December 31, 2002. The claims for the project

most likely will not be settled within one year. Accordingly,

probable unapproved claims of $115 million at December 31,

2002 have been recorded to long-term unbilled work on

uncompleted contracts. Those amounts are included in

“Other assets” on the balance sheet. KBR has asserted claims

for compensation substantially in excess of $182 million. The

project owner, through its project manager, Petrobras, has

denied responsibility for all such claims. Petrobras has,

however, agreed in principle to the scope, but not yet the

amount, of issues valued by KBR approximately $29 million

which are not related to the $182 million in probable

unapproved claims. Additionally we are in discussion with

Petrobras about responsibility for $78 million of new tax

costs that were not foreseen in the contract price.

damages if claims are asserted and we were responsible for

the delays. These generally relate to specified activities

within a project by a set contractual date or achievement of

a specified level of output or throughput of a plant we

construct. Each contract defines the conditions under which

a customer may make a claim for liquidated damages. In

most instances, liquidated damages are never asserted by

Restrictions may also lapse for early retirement and other

conditions in accordance with our established policies. Upon

termination of employment, shares in which restrictions

have not lapsed must be returned to us, resulting in

restricted stock forfeitures. The fair market value of the

stock, on the date of issuance, is being amortized and

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

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

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

Since becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Halliburton,

DII Industries (formerly Dresser Industries, Inc.) has ceased

filing periodic reports with the United States Securities and

Exchange Commission. DII Industries 8% guaranteed senior

notes, which were initially issued by Baroid Corporation,

remain outstanding and are fully and unconditionally

guaranteed by Halliburton. Under the terms of a Fourth

Supplemental Indenture, Halliburton Company in December

2002 assumed as co-obligor the payment of principle and

interest on the notes, and the performance of all of the

covenants and conditions of the related indenture.
