USA: Halliburton Made Right Decision

U.S. oilfield services company Halliburton is getting closer to important markets and further from some political problems by its decision to move its headquarters between Houston and Dubai.

The oil services company insists it will gain no special tax or legal advantages from the move and that Halliburton will keep a big presence in Texas even though its business is now global.

Some Americans were startled to hear Chief Executive Dave Lesar's announcement Sunday that he would lead the company from a new headquarters in Dubai.
