Baker Hughes is a diversified energy technology company operating across industrial and energy markets through two primary segments: Oilfield Services & Equipment (OFSE) and Industrial & Energy Technology (IET). OFSE designs and manufactures products and provides services for onshore and offshore oilfield operations across the asset lifecycle—from exploration through decommissioning—with offerings in well construction, completions and intervention, production solutions, and subsea and surface pressure systems, serving major integrated oil and gas companies, independents, and national oil companies. IET combines domain expertise, technologies, and services across gas technology equipment and services, industrial products, and industrial solutions, serving customers in LNG, pipeline and gas storage, refining, petrochemical, hydrogen, geothermal, carbon capture and storage, power generation, and diverse industrial verticals including pulp and paper, food and beverage, and aerospace. The company operates on a direct sales model with regional teams supported by centers of excellence, competing on technology differentiation, quality, efficiency, reliability, and service delivery across highly competitive markets. Baker Hughes generates revenue through both transactional product sales and recurring aftermarket services, with a strategic focus on expanding into adjacent markets including data centers, new energy solutions (hydrogen, CCUS, geothermal, clean power), and digital and AI-enabled offerings. The company maintains a global presence across over 120 countries and positions itself at the intersection of energy and industrial ecosystems, leveraging a century of operational experience and a portfolio of over 1,400 patents granted in 2025 to address evolving customer demands for efficiency, reliability, and lower-carbon solutions.
【Strategic portfolio transformation and margin expansion】 Management expects continued structural transformation of the global energy landscape, with sustained demand growth driven by population expansion, industrialization, and digital infrastructure proliferation, positioning Baker Hughes to benefit from diversified energy sources and integrated solutions. The company anticipates meaningful growth in natural gas demand (projected to grow over 20% by 2040) and LNG capacity expansion (expected to reach 950 MTPA by 2035), supported by strong order visibility and record backlog levels that underpin durable revenue conversion and margin progression toward the 20% EBITDA target. Data center applications represent a significant emerging opportunity, with management now expecting to book approximately $3 billion of data center-related orders between 2025 and 2027, driven by AI infrastructure spending and the need for reliable behind-the-meter power solutions. Near-term challenges persist from Middle East geopolitical disruptions and subdued upstream spending, though management remains confident in navigating short-term uncertainties through portfolio resilience and disciplined execution of the Baker Hughes business system, with expectations for modest upstream spending declines in 2026 offset by strength in gas infrastructure, power generation, and new energy markets.
