(Dec. 10) Houston Houston-based Cameron International dropped a non-compete lawsuit against FMC Technologies Singapore after a federal judge determined Cameron’s non-compete agreement was overly broad and couldn’t be used to stop an ex-Cameron employee from working for Houston-based FMC Technologies. A similar non-complete case brought by Schlumberger against National Oilwell Varco is scheduled for trial in February in Harris County district court.
