SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
 

Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application to Withdraw From Listing 
and Registration; (Weatherford International Incorporated, Common 
Stock, $0.10 Par Value) File No. 1-7867

November 3, 1994.
    Weatherford International Incorporated (``Company'') has filed an 
application with the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(``Commission''), pursuant to Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934 (``Act'') and Rule 12d2-2(d) promulgated thereunder, to 
withdraw the above specified security (``Security'') from listing and 
registration on the American Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'').
    The reasons alleged in the application for withdrawing the Security 
from listing and registration include the following:
    According to the Company, in addition to being listed on the Amex, 
the Security is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE''). 
The Security commenced trading on the NYSE at the opening of business 
on October 19, 1994 and concurrently therewith the Security was 
suspended from trading on the Amex.
    In making the decision to withdraw the Security from listing on the 
Amex, the Company considered the direct and indirect costs and expenses 
attendant on maintaining the dual listing of its securities on the NYSE 
and on the Amex. The Company does not see any particular advantage in 
the dual trading of the Security and believes that dual listing would 
fragment the market for the Security.
    Any interested person may, on or before November 24, 1994 submit by 
letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 
Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts bearing upon whether 
the application has been made in accordance with the rules of the 
exchanges and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission 
for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on the 
information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the 
application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission 
determines to order a hearing on the matter.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary.
