Iraqi oil |
"The Halliburton subsidiaries [Dresser Rand] joined dozens
of American and foreign oil supply companies that helped Iraq
increase its crude exports from $4 billion in 1997 to nearly
$18 billion in 2000. Since the program began, Iraq has exported
oil worth more than $40 billion."^

"Using two subsidiaries, Dresser-Rand and Ingersoll-Dresser,
Halliburton helped rebuild Saddam's
war-damaged oil fields. The combined value of these contracts
for parts and equipment was greater than that of any other American
company doing business with Iraq - companies including Schlumberger,
Flowserve, Fisher-Rosemount and General Electric. They acted
through foreign subsidiaries or associated companies in France,
Belgium, Germany, India, Switzerland, Bahrain, Egypt and the
Netherlands. In several cases, it is clear the European companies
did no more than loan their names to American firms for the
purpose of dealing with Hussein. Iraq then became America's
second-largest Middle Eastern oil supplier." Molly
