The notice was published in the Federal Register on May 11, 1999 (64 FR 25372). At the request of the State agency, the Department reviewed the certification for workers of the subject firm.

New findings show that Dresser Industries, Inc. is the parent firm of Sperry-Sun Drilling Services, headquartered in Houston, Texas, Baroid Drilling Fluids, headquartered in Houston, Texas and Security DBS, headquartered in Dallas, Texas and operating at various locations in the above cited states.
