![]() Tarver Engineering wrote: "Simon Elliott" wrote in message ... Tarver Engineering writes The Iraqi people managed their oil refineries quite well before Halliburton arrived on the scene. Total managed the Iraqi's oil before the US got there and the aquifer shows the French abused the fields. Interesting. Can you elaborate on this? The story was in the newsgroups a couple of weeks ago. There are also other companies that could do the same work such as Bechtel and probably some foreign companies as well. Bectel is already in Iraq, repairing the electric inferstructure. You should put "repairing" in inverted commas. Bechtel built the Iraqi electrical system in the first place. A no-bid contract with a company who's former head just happens to be one of the most powerful men in Washington and who is still on the payroll doesn't bother you at all? Better Halliburton than Schlumberger. Why do you think Halliburton are any better than Schlumberger? Schlumberger are French. Q. When and where was Schlumberger incorporated? A. November 6, 1956 in the Netherlands Antilles Q. Is Schlumberger a Foreign Corporation? A. Although Schlumberger is incorporated in the Netherlands Antilles, Schlumberger is not treated as a "foreign private issuer" under US securities laws and files the same public filings as other US public companies. http://www.slb.com/ir/faq.html |
