     SHELL LAUNCHES MASSIVE COILED-TUBING DRILLING PROGRAM
              -- HALLIBURTON DRILLING 68 WELLS --

DALLAS, Texas -- Shell Western Exploration and Production Inc.
has launched an extensive coiled-tubing drilling program with
Halliburton Energy Services for 68 injection wells in a
California field.  Based on the number of wells, the project is
likely the world's largest single coiled-tubing drilling program
to date.

With the first 12 wells already completed, Halliburton is now
drilling about one well per day, saving considerable drilling and
rig costs.

The wells are part of a 115-well project in Shell's McKittrick
field near Bakersfield, California.  The field has a complex
system of steam distribution lines, production lines, power lines
and pumping equipment which restrict the space required for
conventional drilling methods.

According to Roy Romagno, Shell's drilling foreman on the
project, the coiled-tubing technology makes it possible to
operate in limited space, without a mast, rotary table and other
equipment necessary for rotary drilling.  Environmentally, he
says, the lower-profile coiled-tubing operation also generates
less noise and emissions and, because of hole size, there are
less cuttings to dispose of.

Halliburton has combined its coiled-tubing equipment and
expertise with its Dyna-drill mud motor technology to offer the
coiled-tubing drilling service in the Shell field.  In the
operation, tubing is fed into the well by an arched injector.
Drilling fluid is circulated down the coiled-tubing, turning the
rotor in a Dyna-drill mud motor and activating the bit.
Halliburton is also providing open-hole logging as part of the
service package.

Gene Rutland, a global coiled-tubing advisor for Halliburton,
says that this is likely the largest single coiled-tubing
drilling project ever undertaken, especially for new wells.  "It
will account," according to Rutland, "for at least one-half of
all the wells drilled this year using coiled-tubing."

The drilling program is expected to last three to four months.
The wells range in depth from 775-960 feet with a total footage
of approximately 61,000.
