Exhibit 99.4
                                 Customer Letter

December 18, 2002

Dear Valued Customer,

Because of your valued relationship with Halliburton,  through [BU Name], I want
you to hear from me  personally  about an  important  and  positive  action  our
Company is taking to resolve its asbestos claims.

Today,  Halliburton announced that it has reached an agreement in principle with
attorneys representing substantially more than the 75% of current known asbestos
plaintiffs  claimants in order to reach a global  settlement  of all current and
future asbestos claims against the Company. This agreement hopefully will result
in a global  settlement of all outstanding  asbestos claims. If this transaction
is ultimately completed,  it will resolve all of our current and future personal
injury asbestos-related claims.

This is good news for  Halliburton  as well as our  customers.  The agreement in
principle,  if  implemented,  provides a permanent and final  resolution of this
issue,  and it  will  allow  us to  concentrate  on  providing  services  to our
customers as well as further growing our core businesses.

Under the proposed  agreement,  the settlement  would be  implemented  through a
pre-packaged  Chapter 11 filing of our U.S. entity,  Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc.,
and certain other subsidiaries with U.S. operations. A pre-packaged filing means
that we are bringing to the court a settlement that has been pre-agreed with the
asbestos  claimants  and  the  potential  futures  representative.  That  should
expedite the plan's approval because it removes many of the  uncertainties  that
have hampered other bankruptcies. We expect the filing to take place late in the
first quarter of 2003.

KBR Services, Inc., which comprises the U.S. government operations business, and
KBR's  entities  with no U.S.  operations,  will be excluded from the Chapter 11
filing.  Halliburton,  Halliburton  Energy Services,  Landmark Graphics and most
other Halliburton subsidiaries will also be excluded from the filing.

I want to emphasize that the plan provides that all our obligations, commitments
and contracts will be honored in full, and the filing will have no effect on any
of our present or future  contracts.  KBR and all of the  Halliburton  companies
remain  financially  strong,  and we look forward to  continuing  to deliver the
cost-effective results you have always counted on in the past.

Drawing on our  worldwide  team of 82,000  employees,  our global  resources  in
energy services, engineering,  construction, operations and maintenance, and our
project  execution  strength,  we look forward to putting this  asbestos  matter
behind us and  focusing on our mission -- bringing  together the best people and
technology and delivering the right solutions for our customers.



Enclosed is a copy of today's announcement for your information.  If at any time
you have any  questions,  please  feel free to contact  your  local  Halliburton
representative  or  contact  me  directly  or  you  may  visit  our  website  at
www.halliburton.com  which has a number of explanatory  documents related to the
subject.

Sincerely,

[BU Rep Name]
