So far, Halliburton has been paid more than $4.3 billion under its logistics contract in Iraq, doing tasks that range from delivering mail to building bases and cooking meals.

Halliburton's work has been under intense scrutiny in Iraq, with allegations the company overcharged for some services, such as providing fuel to Iraqi civilians and for meals.



Its woes were compounded last week when a leaked Pentagon (news - web sites) audit said KBR had not adequately accounted for more than $1.8 billion of work done in Iraq and Kuwait and found flaws in KBR's system for estimating costs.
