the sale of certain products procured from
others, such as bulk cement and various chemical admixtures for use
with cement, and such sales, particularly of bulk cement, now provide
a substantial
portion of its gross revenues. At present, in addition to
oil well cementing, the company offers retrievable cementer, oil well

Under modern oil production methods, cementing, formation testing
and the other types of services furnished by-the company are recogsized
as
essential.
This is almost universally the case whether the
operations are in the United States or in foreign countries. The drill¬
ing of a new well may result in a dry hole or the reconditioning of
an Qld well may result in no improvement in production, but nevertheless, in the drilling of the new well and in the attempt to increase
production in the old well, one or more services of the types offered
by the company will, under standard oil production methods, be used.

In 1924,. Mr. Halliburton proposed to a number of the leading
oil companies that the present company be formed to carry out fur¬

producers the essential service of cementing oil and gas wells.
This
resulted in
the acquisition of substantial interests in
