HOUSTON - Halliburton (NYSE: HAL) announced today that Doug Foshee has resigned as executive vice president and chief operating officer to become president and chief executive officer of El Paso Corporation (NYSE:EP).
"Halliburton is a great company and it has been an honor to be part of its leadership team," said Foshee. "I believe Halliburton is the premier company in its industry with significant competitive advantages including outstanding management depth."
"We regret Doug's decision to resign, as he has added significant value to the company during the past two years," said Dave Lesar, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Halliburton. "Doug has been instrumental in helping Halliburton manage through its asbestos difficulties. We will miss him, and wish him the very best as he pursues his new endeavor."
