TANTO PER CAMBIARE

Come a Camp Bondsteel - la enorme base USA nel protettorato del Kosovo
- anche in Iraq: la Brown & Root si e' aggiudicata tutti i preappalti
sulle strutture petrolifere.
Ricordiamo che la Brown & Root e' una affiliata della Halliburton,
l'azienda del vicepresidente USA Dick Cheney: l'uomo che conta davvero
alla Casa Bianca, altro che Bush... (I.S.)

Halliburton wins contract on Iraq oil firefighting

Reuters, 03.06.03, 8:31 PM ET


HOUSTON, March 6 (Reuters) - A Halliburton Co. subsidiary Kellogg,
Brown & Root (KBR) has won the contract to oversee any firefighting
operations at Iraqi oilfields after any U.S.-led invasion, a Defense
Department source said on Thursday.

KBR was widely viewed by many in the oilfield services industry as the
likely candidate to oversee firefighting in Iraq's oilfields.
Halliburton does extensive logistic support work for the U.S.
military.

Vice President Dick Cheney served as Halliburton's chief executive
officer from 1995 to 2000,

A possible beneficiary of Thursday's deal is oilwell firefighting
company Boots & Coots International Well Control Inc., with which
Halliburton has had an alliance since 1995.

A Halliburton spokeswoman declined comment and referred all questions
to the Defense Department.
