Halliburton Pleads Guilty to Gulf of Mexico Oil spill

U.S company Halliburton will plead guilty to destroying evidence relating to the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill.
The plea agreement, which is subject to court approval, means Halliburton will have to pay the maximum possible fine of $200,000 and to accept a term of three years probation.
The major oil spill three years ago at BP's Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico, which killed 11 workers, was the worst in US history.
