Halliburton announced that income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2010 was $252 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, excluding the previously disclosed impacts of the recent devaluation of the Venezuelan Bolívar Fuerte.
Halliburton, the oil services company once run by former US vice-president Dick Cheney, doubled its profits in the last quarter of 2010, even as the US government tarred it with ``systemic failures'' in the BP Deepwater Horizon drilling disaster.
