Halliburton (NYSE: HAL) filed claims against BP in
Texas
state
court for negligent misrepresentation, business disparagement and defamation
related to the
April
20, 2010
, Macondo incident. Halliburton has also moved to amend its claims
against BP in the multi-district litigation in
New
Orleans
,
Louisiana
, to include fraud.
These allegations are based upon BP providing Halliburton with inaccurate
information prior to performing cementing services on
April 19, 2010
, and BP's use of and omission
of that information in subsequent public statements, filings and governmental
investigations.
Halliburton has learned that BP provided Halliburton inaccurate information
about the actual location of hydrocarbon zones in the Macondo well. The actual
location of the hydrocarbon zones is critical information required prior to
performing cementing services and is necessary to achieve desired cement
placement.
Halliburton remains confident that all the work it performed with respect to
the Macondo well was completed in accordance with BP's specifications for its
well construction plan and instructions, and that Halliburton is fully
indemnified under the contract.
