Oilfield services firm Halliburton reported a fall in profit for the second quarter on Tuesday, hurt by weak North America demand.

The company reported a profit of $472 million, or 55 cents per share, for the quarter ended June 30, compared with $709 million, or 80 cents per share, a year earlier.
