According to the company’s website press release on October 19, 2022, Baker Hughes Company (Nasdaq: BKR) ("Baker Hughes" or the "Company") announced results for the third quarter of 2022.
“We were generally pleased with our third quarter results, with strong performance in OFS while TPS successfully managed multiple challenges. We also saw strong orders performance, with continued momentum in OFE as well as TPS. 2022 has presented some unique challenges for Baker Hughes, and as we head towards 2023 we believe many of the key challenges should be behind us. I would like to thank our team for their continued commitment to deliver for our customers and execute our strategy,” said Lorenzo Simonelli, Baker Hughes chairman and chief executive officer.
“The macro outlook has grown increasingly uncertain as the global economy is dealing with strong inflationary pressures, a rising interest rate environment, and sizeable fluctuations in global currencies. Despite these economic challenges, we remain positive on the outlook for oil and gas. We believe the fundamentals remain supportive of a multi-year upturn in global upstream spending, and that elevated natural gas and LNG pricing remains constructive for future FIDs. On the new energy front, recent policy movements in Europe and the U.S. are likely to help support a significant increase in clean energy development.”
“Given the dynamic macro backdrop, Baker Hughes is focusing on preparing for a range of scenarios and executing on what is within our control. Last month, we announced a restructuring and re-segmentation of the company into two reporting segments, OFSE and IET. These changes are designed to sharpen our focus, improve operational execution and better position Baker Hughes to capitalize on the quickly changing energy markets. Importantly, we expect these changes to increase shareholder value as we continue to invest in our portfolio for new energy and long-term growth opportunities,” concluded Simonelli.
Quarter Highlights
Supporting our Customers
The OFS segment was awarded a Wireline Services contract by Petrobras to support offshore operations. The contract allows Baker Hughes to introduce several new well construction technologies to the region, including RCX™ Magna large area multi-probe sampling, SureVIEW™ DAS, which provides comprehensive exploratory formation evaluation data, and Downhole Electric Cutting Tool (DECT) pipe cutting service.
OFS’ Wireline Services product line was also awarded a three-year contract by Sonatrach in Algeria, leveraging our deep understanding of the customer’s needs and positioning OFS as the leading wireline provider in the country.
OFS continued to drive interest in its digital portfolio of solutions. A major North American operator awarded Baker Hughes a contract to perform an offline analysis on 60 wells in the Permian and Delaware basins using ProductionLink – Predictive Failure Analytics (PFA). ProductionLink PFA software transforms the way customers manage production operations by adding significant value for electrical submersible pumps’ run life extension, operations and inventory planning, and maximizing overall lift performance.
The TPS segment saw continued growth in LNG. TPS secured another contract for two additional New Fortress Energy’s (NFE) “Fast LNG” projects, supplying two main refrigerant turbocompressor strings. Each turbocompressor will feature one LM6000PF+ gas turbine, and the technology will be deployed in various offshore projects across the globe, helping to increase overall LNG supply.
TPS announced a new outcome-based services contract for the maintenance and monitoring of turbomachinery equipment operations at Coral Sul FLNG, the first deep-water floating LNG facility operating off the coast of Mozambique for the ENI-led Coral South project. This new service agreement builds on an existing contract awarded to Baker Hughes in 2017 for the project’s power and gas refrigeration process. As part of the scope, Baker Hughes will fully leverage its growing digital capabilities by providing remote monitoring and diagnostics services, as well as a suite of other services based on Bently Nevada’s System 1 technology.
TPS also secured a contract in Saudi Arabia to supply 12 electric motor driven compressors to support gas processing for Aramco’s Jafurah unconventional gas field project, the largest non-associated gas field in the country. This contract follows a previous contract awarded to TPS in the second quarter, bringing a total of 26 compressor trains supplied by Baker Hughes to the Jafurah project.
OFE’s Flexible Pipes Systems (FPS) product line saw a third-straight quarter of record orders. OFE secured several long-term contracts with operators in multiple regions, including Brazil and Asia, to provide flexible pipes for offshore projects, reflecting FPS’ strong technology capabilities.
The DS segment continued to see interest in its industrial asset management solutions. Bently Nevada secured multiple contracts supporting customers’ digital transformation across their operations. In Europe, the business secured a milestone, multi-year Software as a Service contract, expanding Bently Nevada’s existing scope to deliver plantwide software across the customer’s entire installed base. In the Middle East, Bently Nevada secured a contract with a major national oil company to extend asset condition monitoring hardware and software across three offshore platforms while centralizing and connecting data back to the customer’s onshore operations center. The contract includes 3500 and TDI hardware modules, System 1 servers, and cyber security protection.
Executing on Priorities and Leading with Innovation
During the quarter, Baker Hughes announced that it is restructuring and simplifying its organization and accelerating its strategic transformation. Baker Hughes is restructuring its four product companies to focus on two reporting business segments and streamlining its corporate structure, which is expected to deliver at least $150 million in cost savings and form the baseline for further margin improvement. Effective October 1, the Company has been formally restructured into two reporting business segments; Oilfield Services & Equipment (OFSE) integrates the current OFS and OFE product companies; Industrial & Energy Technology (IET) integrates the current TPS and DS product companies. These changes are designed to simplify operations, enhance profitability, and drive growth, meeting customer needs and producing solutions in the rapidly evolving energy and industrial markets.
TPS also continued to support the growth of the hydrogen economy, securing two contracts with Air Products to supply advanced compression and steam turbine generator technologies for the net-zero hydrogen energy complex in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, as well as the NEOM carbon-free hydrogen project in Saudi Arabia. In Edmonton, Baker Hughes will supply its high-pressure ratio compressor technology for hydrogen compression, enabling a significant reduction of compressor footprint due to its unique design and power density. These orders are part of the companies’ previously announced hydrogen collaboration framework in 2021.
An investment into graphene production technology company Levidian will provide Baker Hughes with an entry point into the promising market of graphene production, a game-changing additive for many materials. Levidian’s technology stands out with the ability to produce a high-quality type of graphene in large volumes. A wide range of methane and fugitive gas streams can be decarbonized by conversion into graphene and hydrogen which can then be used to decarbonize hard-to-abate industries.
In August, TPS announced the acquisition of the Power Generation division of BRUSH group to enhance its electric machinery portfolio. The acquisition was completed in early October. BRUSH’s technology is already in use across a wide range of industries and complements Baker Hughes’ existing e-LNG offering, supporting the Company’s strategic commitment to provide lower carbon solutions.
Orders for the quarter were $6,063 million, up 3% sequentially and up 13% year-over-year.
