The Company now known as Halliburton began in 1919 when Erle P. Halliburton started his New Method Oil Well Cementing Company with his revolutionary cement jet mixer. So it could fairly be said that innovation is in our DNA.
Today, Halliburton holds approximately 2,000 U.S. patents and more than 1,950 international patents. At our technology centers in Carrollton, Texas; Dallas, Texas; Duncan, Oklahoma; Houston, Texas; Malvern, Pennsylvania; Nisku, Canada; Tewkesbury, U.K.; and Leiderdorp, The Netherlands, Halliburton chemists, physicists, geologists, geophysicists, computer scientists, mathematicians, metallurgists, and petroleum, chemical, electrical and mechanical engineers are seeking new ways to satisfy customer needs.
There’s another kind of innovation taking place within Halliburton, one that involves creating new business models and restructuring relationships. As the cost of doing business escalates, customers are relying on Halliburton to contribute research and development and decision support. We’re experiencing this at Halliburton Energy Services and Landmark Graphics, where collaborative relationships are yielding products and services that transcend individual capabilities.
In the future, there will be even more of these opportunities. Technology suppliers and reservoir knowledge companies will become virtual branch operations of oil and gas organizations in order to speed development, share resources and lower costs.
