Oh it was about oil ...who knew...

AMERICAN
COMPANIES PROFIT


Several American or U.S.-based oil services companies such as
ExxonMobil, Halliburton, Schlumberger, Baker Hughes, and Weatherford
International have won huge drilling and well refurbishment contracts
and subcontracts.




Some
analysts estimate that nearly half of the expected $150 billion that
international oil giants are expected to spend at Iraqi oil fields
over the next few years will be awarded to American
drilling subcontractors.


While other international companies have
established a footprint for building facilities and processing
pipelines, U.S. oil services companies are set to take over most of
the drilling contracts in the six major Iraqi oil fields.
