Shipping was extra — a lot extra
KBR spent millions getting $82,100 worth of LPG into Iraq

WASHINGTON - Iraq needed fuel. Halliburton Co. was ordered to get it there — quick. So the Houston-based contractor charged the Pentagon $27.5 million to ship $82,100 worth of cooking and heating fuel.

I know it's hard to find fuel in the Middle East :roll:, but come on.
