         HALLIBURTON SIGNS JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENT
      WITH CHINESE PETROLEUM BUREAU OF PRESIDENTIAL MISSION

     DALLAS, Texas -- Halliburton Company's (NYSE-HAL)
Halliburton Energy Services business segment today signed an
exclusive joint venture agreement with the Liaohe Petroleum
Exploration Bureau for the manufacture and sale of flow
measurement equipment.  The agreement was signed in Beijing,
China as part of a presidential business development mission led
by U.S. Secretary of Energy, Hazel O'Leary.

     The joint venture, owned 51% by Halliburton and 49% by the
Liaohe Petroleum Bureau, will produce and sell high technology
turbine flow meters and flow measurement products for oilfield
service applications in China and throughout the world.  The ten-
year venture is projected to generate revenues of $40 million.

     The Liaohe Petroleum Bureau will build the required liquid
and gas meter calibration systems according to Halliburton
specifications.  Halliburton will transfer technology and provide
technical training to the joint venture in the areas of
manufacturing and assembly, calibration, product sales and
marketing, and flow measurement operations.

     Halliburton, the largest U.S. based oilfield service
company, signed the cooperative agreement as part of the
presidential mission on sustainable energy and trade to China led
by U.S. Secretary of Energy, Hazel O'Leary.  According to
Secretary O'Leary, "The Halliburton/Liaohe agreement is a strong
indication of the new climate that is being created between the
U.S. and China for commercial partnerships in sustainable energy
technology.  The Chinese energy sector offers tremendous
opportunities for American-based firms to participate as partners
in this expanding energy market while helping create supporting
jobs in the United States."

     Dale Jones, President of Halliburton Company, is
accompanying Secretary O'Leary on the mission along with several
other key energy industry executives.  Jones said that
Halliburton has had a strong relationship with the Chinese for
many years, highlighted by the formation in 1993 of a joint
service company with the Chinese National Petroleum Company
(CNPC) to supply a wide range of products and services to the oil
and gas industry in China.

     The Liaohe Province contains the third largest producing oil
and gas field in China generating approximately 14 million tons
of oil and 1.7 billion cubic meters of gas annually.  Founded in
1967, the Liaohe Petroleum Bureau employs about 117,000 people.
