         INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN REPORT

Item 9.  Regulation FD Disclosure

         On  March  14,  2003  registrant   issued  a  press  release   entitled
"Halliburton Files Affidavit On Global Asbestos Settlement."

         The text of the press release is as follows:


            HALLIBURTON FILES AFFIDAVIT ON GLOBAL ASBESTOS SETTLEMENT

          Company says it believes it meets the court-imposed deadline

Houston,  Texas -  Halliburton  (NYSE:  HAL)  today  announced  the filing of an
affidavit with the court in the Harbison-Walker bankruptcy case that it believes
is consistent with the court order of February 18, 2003.


The court order had extended its previously issued temporary  restraining order,
staying the more than 200,000  pending  asbestos  claims  against  Halliburton's
subsidiary,  DII  Industries,  LLC (DII),  until March 21, 2003. The court order
also stated that oral  arguments  would be held on March 21, 2003 on a motion to
lift the stay,  unless DII filed an  affidavit  by March 14, 2003  stating  that
executed  agreements  had been  signed  by an  estimated  75% of DII's  asbestos
plaintiffs.


The affidavit filed today by DII stated that DII and KBR have definitive written
agreements,  or written "highly confident"  representations that such definitive
agreements  are  forthcoming,  from attorneys  representing  an estimated 75% of
claimants.  These  estimates  are based on certain  assumptions  and exclude the
impact  of  certain  claims  in the  Harbison-Walker  bankruptcy,  for which the
Company indicated it had certain defenses or did not have reliable information.


Halliburton,  founded  in  1919,  is one of the  world's  largest  providers  of
products and services to the petroleum and energy industries. The company serves
its  customers  with a broad range of products and  services  through its Energy
