INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN REPORT

ITEM 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On October 26, 2004 registrant issued a press release entitled “Halliburton Announces Third Quarter Results.”

The text of the Press Release is as follows:

HALLIBURTON ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
$0.42 per diluted share income from continuing operations

HOUSTON, Texas - Halliburton (NYSE:HAL) announced today that third quarter 2004 income from continuing operations was $186 million, or $0.42 per diluted share.

Net loss for the quarter was $44 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, and included a net loss from discontinued operations primarily for the proposed asbestos and silica settlement of $230 million, or $0.51 per diluted share. The net loss from discontinued operations resulted primarily from the third quarter revaluation, due to the increase in Halliburton’s stock price, of the 59.5 million shares of Halliburton common stock to be contributed to trusts for the benefit of asbestos and silica claimants.

Revenues were $4.8 billion in the third quarter 2004, up 16% from the third quarter 2003. This increase was largely attributable to higher activity on government services projects in the Middle East in the Engineering and Construction Group (known as KBR) and record quarterly revenues in the Energy Services Group (ESG).

The consolidated pretax operating income was $342 million in the third quarter 2004 compared to $204 million in the third quarter 2003. Impacting third quarter 2004 operating income was a $40 million gain related to the sale of ESG’s Surface Well Testing operation and $18 million of charges related to the restructuring of KBR. Third quarter 2003 results included a $77 million charge related to the Anglo-Dutch litigation.

“ESG had record quarterly revenue, operating income, and operating margins,” said Dave Lesar, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Halliburton. “We continue to see revenue growth and profit improvement in the energy services business. The rig count continues to increase, while our uplift in pricing, coupled with our focus on cost control, are providing stronger margins.

Also, I am pleased with the progress of KBR’s recent actions. KBR has sailed the Barracuda and Belanak FPSO vessels, restructured its organization to take costs out of the business, and resolved issues with customers on a number of projects. These efforts should position KBR for profitability in future years.”


2004 Third Quarter Segment Results

Energy Services Group

ESG posted third quarter 2004 revenues of $2.1 billion, a $303 million or 17% increase over the third quarter 2003, and operating income of $414 million, up $244 million or 144% from the same period in the prior year.

Production Optimization operating income for the third quarter 2004 was $222 million, a $104 million or 88% increase over third quarter 2003. The third quarter 2004 operating income included a $40 million gain on the sale of Surface Well Testing. Production enhancement services improved operating income $54 million largely from increased land rig activity, higher equipment utilization, and improved pricing in the United States. Operating income from completions and reservoir optimization product sales and services was the same as the prior year period. The third quarter 2004 included $12 million in equity income from the Subsea 7 joint venture compared with $5 million in equity income in the third quarter 2003.

Fluids operating income for the third quarter 2004 was $113 million, a $58 million or 106% increase over the third quarter 2003. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to a $29 million increase in cementing services due to higher land drilling activity and improved pricing in North America. Drilling fluids increased $27 million on a 19% increase in revenues and the benefits of cost reduction initiatives in the Gulf of Mexico.

Drilling and Formation Evaluation operating income of $62 million was up $17 million or 38% over the prior year third quarter partially due to a change in accounting estimate to extend the useful life of directional drilling and logging-while-drilling tools. Drill bits operating income increased $3 million on an 8% increase in revenue, with a significant improvement in operating margins. Logging services operating income increased $3 million year-over-year on higher United States land rig counts and improvement in pricing.

Landmark and Other Energy Services third quarter 2004 operating income was $17 million, compared to a $48 million operating loss for the prior year period. Third quarter 2003 results included a $77 million charge related to the Anglo-Dutch litigation. Landmark Graphics achieved 3% growth in revenues over the prior year period due primarily to increased software sales in Mexico.


KBR

KBR revenues for the third quarter 2004 were $2.7 billion, a 15% increase over the third quarter 2003. The increase was due to government contract activities, primarily in the Middle East.

KBR operating loss for the third quarter 2004 was $50 million, compared to operating income of $49 million in the third quarter 2003. The third quarter 2004 operating loss included $70 million of project losses on a gas processing plant in Algeria, the Belanak FPSO project, and a toll road project in the United Kingdom; $18 million of charges related to the restructuring of KBR; and lower results on government services projects due to the winding down of the RIO project and higher indirect costs related to the installation of KBR’s new SAP general accounting system.

KBR backlog at September 30, 2004 was $9.3 billion, up nearly $500 million from June 30, 2004, primarily due to a new LNG train award in Nigeria and new operation and maintenance projects. Approximately 23% of the backlog was for fixed-fee contracts.

Halliburton’s Iraq-related work contributed approximately $1.4 billion in revenues in the third quarter 2004 and $4 million of operating income before corporate costs and taxes.


Technology and Significant Achievements

Halliburton had a number of advances in technology and new contract awards.

Energy Services Group new technologies and contracts:

·   Halliburton has been awarded three major contracts by Petroleum Development Oman estimated to be between $400 and $500 million over five years to provide cementing services, stimulation services, directional drilling services, logging-while-drilling services, and mudlogging services in Oman. Each contract includes an optional extension for two years. 

·   Halliburton has been awarded a three-year, $32 million, data management contract by PetroChina Company Limited. As part of the contract, Landmark Graphics will implement a fully integrated, multi-tiered information management system that will support the full data life cycle of PetroChina's oil and gas data.

·   ChevronTexaco expanded its relationship with Halliburton for drilling operations in North America and selected Halliburton as the vendor of choice for ChevronTexaco's WellDECC (Well Design & Execution Collaboration Center). This state-of-the-art technology will allow real-time strategy for well planning, design, and monitoring.

·   Halliburton's Baroid Product Service Line, in alliance with National Oilwell, announced the launch of their first major project in Mexico under the new Baroid/National Oilwell Alliance to provide solids control and waste management services and equipment at the rig site. Further, the team was recently awarded a solids control and waste management service and equipment contract in Bangladesh while similar operations are already underway in the United States, Venezuela, and Brazil.

·   Halliburton has developed new technologies - DeepReachSM coiled tubing service and DeepQuestSM stimulation service - designed to assist operators with recovering harder-to-access reserves in deep water. In some cases, these technologies will help operators perform treatments on ultra deep wells that could not be performed prior to the development of these technologies.


KBR new contract awards:

·   Nigeria LNG Limited (NLNG) has awarded the engineering, procurement, and construction contract for the NLNGSix project at its existing liquefied natural gas facility to a joint venture team, which includes KBR. The partners of the equal joint venture team, known as TSKJ, include Technip, Snamprogetti, KBR, and JGC Corporation. This is the fourth project that TSKJ has contracted with NLNG.

·   KBR has been awarded a basic design engineering package for a new 360,000 ton/year ethylene plant capacity expansion, which will be added to an existing 240,000 ton/year unit for a total capacity of 600,000 ton/year by the Lanzhou Petrochemical Company, which operates under the auspices of PetroChina. The facility will be located in Lanzhou City, Gansu Province of the People’s Republic of China and will utilize KBR's proprietary SCORE™ (Selective Cracking Optimum REcovery) technology.

·   KBR has been selected to continue providing private sector construction and related services to the United States Navy and other Department of Defense agencies and missions worldwide under the competitively-awarded CONCAP (construction capabilities) contract from the Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Atlantic Division.

(1)These Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets do not include a breakout of prepetition liabilities. This information will be provided in our third quarter 2004 Form 10-Q.

(2)The decrease in “Insurance for asbestos- and silica-related liabilities” reflects the reclassification of $500 million from noncurrent to current in the first quarter of 2004; reclassification of $379 million from noncurrent to current in the second quarter of 2004; and a $680 million write-down in the second quarter of 2004 resulting from settlement agreements with insurance carriers.

Footnotes for Table 3:
(a)   The Company is reporting record third quarter revenues and strong operating income from the Energy Services Group, particularly the Production Optimization segment. Management believes it is important to point out to investors that a portion of operating income and operating margins growth is attributable to the gain on sale of the Surface Well Testing operation in the third quarter of 2004 because investors have indicated to management their desire to understand the current drivers and future trends of our operating margins. The adjustment removes the effect of the gain on sale of the Surface Well Testing operation.
(b)   As reported operating margin is calculated as: As reported operating income divided by revenue. Adjusted operating margin is calculated as: Adjusted operating income divided by revenue.
