Sorry, but I must have MISSED the employees or their union reps defending Halliburton when they continually got pinned to the wall.

I don't know what other major oil companies are headquartered in the US or even how many are US tax-paying corporations.

Hugo Chavez is not going to be happy with this move.

Any oil company that sells oil in the U.S. is liable to the U.S. Treasury for corporate income taxes. A U.S. oil company (if one still exists) is liable for corporate income taxes on its world-wide income. The latter is why I'd be surprised to find if a U.S. oil company still exists.

This is an oil field services company, not an oil company.

Since the US does not want to allow drilling here, why would Halliburton not move their headquarters where the drilling is happening.
