By GlobalDataThe company’s operating segment of Completions and Production reported a 26% increase in revenue in the first quarter of 2022, to $2.4bn.
The quarterly revenue of the Drilling and Evaluation segment totalled $1.9bn, up $350m compared to the first quarter of 2021.
Miller added: “We see significant tightness across the entire oil and gas value chain in North America. Supportive commodity prices and strengthening customer demand against an almost sold-out equipment market are expected to drive expansion in Completion and Production division margins.
“I expect our strong international business to increase throughout the remainder of the year. First quarter revenue growth in all our international regions, together with North America, demonstrates that this multi-year upcycle is well underway.”
Halliburton offers a range of services to the energy industry. This includes helping companies to identify hydrocarbons, managing geological data, well construction, drilling works and evaluation of formations, among others.
Last month, the company suspended its operations in Russia.
