                HALLIBURTON KBR WINS LOGISTICS CIVIL AUGMENTATION
                              CONTRACT FROM US ARMY


ARLINGTON,  Virginia - Halliburton KBR Government  Operations  division has been
awarded  the  U.S.  Army  Logistics  Civil  Augmentation  Program  (LOGCAP)  III
contract.  Halliburton  KBR Government  Operations was formerly known as Brown &
Root Services.
     Established by the U.S. Army to fulfill the Department of Defense's  global
mission  during  contingency   events,   LOGCAP  provides  the  warfighter  with
additional capabilities to rapidly support and augment the logistic requirements
of its deployed forces through use of a civilian contractor.
     Brown  &  Root  Services  served  as the  original  LOGCAP  contractor  and
supported contingency events from 1992 to 1997 in locations ranging from Somalia
to Haiti and subsequently  the Balkans.  When the presence of U.S. Forces in the
Balkans  progressed  into a  sustainment  phase in 1997,  the U.S.  Army  Europe
maintained  continuity of services by awarding Brown & Root the Balkans  Support
Contract.
     Dave  Lesar,  Chairman,  President  and Chief  Executive  Officer of parent
company  Halliburton  (NYSE:  HAL),  discussed the strategic  importance of this
contract:  "Augmenting our military troops with contractor-provided  support has
proven to be an invaluable Force Multiplier."
