BROWN & ROOT WINS NORTH SEA CONTRACT FOR AMERADA HESS
DALLAS, Texas -- Brown & Root Energy Services, a subsidiary of Halliburton
Company (NYSE:HAL), has been awarded a facilities contract, valued at almost
$300 million for Amerada Hess' South Arne field development in the Danish sector
of the North Sea. The workscope comprises detailed design, procurement
fabrication, installation and commissioning of a concrete gravity base
sub-structure (GBS), topsides facilities and a subsea drilling template and
guide piles.
"The platform will be unusual in that the topsides will be supported on the
GBS by one concrete tower and a steel lattice drilling tower/conductor frame,"
explained Lindsay Woodhead, Brown & Root's project manager. "The design saves on
cost and shortens the fabrication schedule."
Current plans are to construct the 100,000-ton GBS at BARMAC's
newly-refurbished dock at Nigg, Scotland. BARMAC, jointly owned by Brown & Root
and J. Ray McDermott, will use 28,000 cubic meters of concrete in the structure,
which will be capable of storing 550,000 barrels of oil.
BARMAC also will fabricate the platform topsides at its Nigg and Ardesier
yards. Installation of the drilling template as well as the GBS will be carried
out by Rockwater, the subsea arm of Brown & Root Energy Services.

Don Wright, managing director of BARMAC, said 400 people will be employed
at peak manning level at Ardersier on the topsides and steel tower and the
construction of the concrete base will employ up to 500 workers.
Brown & Root anticipates fabrication start-up in September of the GBS and
the topsides, with GBS installation in March 1999 and topsides installation in
April 1999. Sub-surface work will commence in September with the installation of
the drilling template.
Halliburton Company is one of the world's largest diversified energy
services, engineering, maintenance, and construction companies. Founded in 1919,
