                   HALLIBURTON COMPANY FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS
                             INCREASE 219 PERCENT -
                ENERGY SERVICES GROUP OPERATING INCOME QUADRUPLES


     DALLAS,  Texas -- Halliburton  Company (NYSE: HAL) reported today that 2001
first quarter net income was $109 million ($0.25 per diluted share).  Net income
from  continuing  operations was $86 million an increase of 219 percent over the
prior year quarter.
     Revenues  from  continuing  operations  were $3.1 billion in the 2001 first
quarter,  an increase of 10 percent compared to the year ago quarter.  Operating
income of $198  million  for the quarter  represents  an increase of 144 percent
compared  to the 2000 first  quarter  operating  income of $81  million.  Strong
growth in Energy  Services  Group  revenues and operating  income were partially
offset  by lower  activity  levels in the  Engineering  and  Construction  Group
business segment.
     Dave  Lesar,  Halliburton's  chairman  of the  board,  president  and chief
executive  officer,  said, "We had an outstanding  quarter.  The Energy Services
Group  continues  to  provide  both  earnings  and  revenue  growth,  and we are
encouraged with the progress resulting from the restructuring of our engineering
and  construction  business.  We are well positioned to build upon our excellent
performance  within North  America as well as capture  benefits  from  increased
international exploration and production spending by our customers."

2001 First Quarter Segment Results
     Effective with the 2001 financial reporting period, Halliburton's financial
statements  have been  restated to reflect the  restructuring  of the  Company's
engineering  and  construction  operations.  The changes  affect both the Energy
Services Group and the Engineering and Construction Group business segments. For

Halliburton Company page 2 investors' reference, supplemental tables are attached and provide restated data for 1999 and 2000. The Energy Services Group segment posted 2001 first quarter revenues of $2 billion representing an increase of 43 percent compared to the 2000 first quarter. All product service lines and geographic regions increased revenues compared to the prior year quarter. Energy Services Group revenues in the United States increased by 63 percent from the year earlier quarter, while international revenues increased by 31 percent. Operating income for the Energy Services Group segment was $200 million, which improved over 300 percent from the first quarter 2000. Operating margins were 9.8 percent compared to 3.4 percent a year earlier. Operating income improvements for this segment were mostly attributable to Halliburton Energy Services, where operating income increased almost 250 percent compared to the first quarter of 2000. This resulted in incremental margins at Halliburton Energy Services of 30 percent year-over-year. The operating income improvement at Halliburton Energy Services was primarily due to higher activity levels and improved pricing for products and services in North America. The segment also benefited from higher levels of software sales and consulting services offered by Landmark and the ramp up of the Barracuda-Caratinga deepwater project in Brazil. The Engineering and Construction Group segment's first quarter 2001 revenues were $1.1 billion, a decrease from the $1.4 billion achieved in the first quarter of 2000. The segment posted an operating profit of $18 million for the 2001 first quarter as compared to the first quarter profits of $49 million in 2000. Continued delays on project awards by our customers impacted revenue and profitability for the first quarter compared to the prior year. Addressing the company's results, Dave Lesar said, "We are very pleased with the continued strong performance of our pressure pumping business in North America. We are also encouraged by the improved profitability of our other product service lines within the Energy Services Group as well as the increased profitability we are beginning to see in some international areas. Discussions with customers support my confidence that the improvements in our Energy Services business will continue throughout 2001. The overall trend of delayed engineering and construction projects is expected to continue into the second half of the year when new projects should begin to be awarded. Our newly aligned and consolidated engineering and construction segment has us well positioned and eagerly awaiting the anticipated new project awards. We are committed to deliver revenues of $4.0 billion to $4.2 billion in the Engineering and Construction Group with margins in the 2.5 percent to 3.0 percent range." Discontinued Operations Income from discontinued operations in the 2001 first quarter was $22 million ($0.05 cents per diluted share), unchanged from the 2000 first quarter. -more-

Halliburton Company page 3 The Company announced completion of the sale of the Dresser Equipment Group on April 10, 2001 for a value of $1.55 billion in cash and assumed liabilities, and about a $300 million after-tax gain, or approximately $0.69 per share. This gain will be recognized in the 2001 second quarter. Technology and Business Successes During 2001, Halliburton achieved a number of business and technology successes including: o Halliburton Energy Services (Sperry Sun product service line) completed the installation of the industry's first ITBS(TM) Isolated Tie-Back System for Norsk Hydro in the Troll Olje field from the semi-submersible "West Vanguard" in the North Sea. The system, which was specifically designed to create a TAML (Technology Advancement for Multilaterals) level 5 for multilateral wells that require hydraulic pressure and mechanical integrity at the junction, has the ability to increase the reservoir exposure and to isolate the junction from sand production. o Halliburton Energy Services (Sperry Sun product service line) achieved another multilateral milestone with the installation of its 275th multilateral junction successfully completed onshore in eastern Venezuela. The TAML level 4 tri-lateral was one of 24 junctions completed on 13 of the operator's wells (nine tri-lateral and four dual-lateral) using Sperry Sun propriety technology and systems. o Halliburton Subsea has been awarded a work order from Statoil to repair subsea connectors in the Asgard field in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea valued at approximately $28 million. The work order includes the recovery of spool pieces to surface for repair as well as the recovery of several pipeline ends. The agreement calls for specially designed and fabricated equipment. The Semi 2, MSV Maxita and MV Geofjord will be utilized as tie-in vessels. o Landmark Graphics Corporation announced a definitive agreement to acquire majority ownership in LMK Resources Ltd., a consulting and information technologies company based in Islamabad, Pakistan. Once complete, the acquisition will expand Landmark's development resources, as well as provide additional technical and consulting resources in the Caspian area, the Middle East and Africa. o Landmark Graphics Corporation completed the acquisition of PGS Data Management, its PetroBank solutions and related trademarks from Petroleum Geo-Services ASA (PGS). The acquisition, which will now form the basis for Landmark's emerging DSP - Data Service Provider - -more-

Halliburton Company page 4 solutions, adds proven network-centric products and services which offer E&P companies the ability to find, access and exploit relevant information on a 24 hours a day, 7 days a week basis through secure, web-based access to all PetroBank centers worldwide. PetroBank has more than 90 terabytes of data available via the internet, providing comprehensive information for more than 280,000 square kilometers of PGS' worldwide data on prospects and producing basins, in addition to other major customer data. PetroBank has been selected as the repository for E&P data in Norway and Brazil. o The Asia Pacific Transportation Consortium, led by Kellogg Brown & Root, finalized the contract for the Alice Springs to Darwin Rail Link Project in Australia. This 1,420 kilometer railway link will provide a strategically important rail link between the southern and northern portions of Australia. Kellogg Brown & Root's share of the design and construction contract is approximately $300 million. o Kellogg Brown & Root completed the successful construction, onshore commissioning and installation of Asia Pacific's largest integrated deck for Shell Philippines Exploration B.V.'s Malampaya, the largest offshore installation in the world using the float over method. The topside facility was set on its concrete base as a complete integrated deck 14 days ahead of schedule. Kellogg Brown & Root pioneered the method to install the deck as one unit, which maximized onshore fabrication and testing work, and continues to complete various engineering, procurement, fabrication, installation and commissioning elements for Malampaya. o Kellogg Brown & Root was selected by CNOOC Chemical Ltd., a 100 percent owned China National Offshore Oil Corporation company, to build a new fertilizer complex on Hainan Island, The People's Republic of China. The complex will include a 1,500 ton/day ammonia plant which will utilize Kellogg Brown & Root's Purifier Process technology. The new complex is expected to have the lowest energy consumption for an ammonia plant in the country. o Kellogg Brown & Root was selected by Thai Olefins Company to provide engineering, procurement, and construction services for a new ethylene plant in Map Ta Phut. The new 300-ktpa plant will be built using Kellogg Brown & Root's Selective Cracking Optimum REcovery (SCORE (TM)) ethylene process, and will be based on ethane and LPG feedstock. o The AlasCan group, a ive-company joint venture in which Kellogg Brown & Root is a member, was awarded the conceptual engineering contract for a multi-billion dollar pipeline that will stretch from Alberta, Canada -more-
