NOV is a diversified oilfield equipment and services company operating through two primary segments: Energy Equipment and Energy Products and Services. The Energy Equipment segment designs and manufactures capital equipment for offshore production, drilling, and construction, including subsea flexible pipe systems, offshore processing modules, drilling rigs and equipment, marine construction vessels, and aftermarket parts and services for offshore drilling contractors. The Energy Products and Services segment provides shorter-cycle rental equipment, capital equipment, and consumable products for land and offshore drilling operations, including downhole tools, drill pipe, composite pipe solutions, and intervention and stimulation equipment. NOV's business model combines capital equipment sales with recurring aftermarket services and rentals, generating revenue from both large project awards and ongoing customer support. The company serves international oil and gas operators, drilling contractors, and service companies across North America, the Middle East, Latin America, and offshore markets, with particular strength in deepwater and unconventional resource development where its technology portfolio provides competitive advantages in subsea systems, gas processing, and drilling automation.
【Offshore-led recovery ahead】 Management expects a meaningful recovery in activity beginning in the second half of 2026 and extending into 2027, driven by the need to restore curtailed production and advance long-cycle deepwater developments following recent geopolitical disruptions. The company anticipates accelerating demand for offshore production equipment, subsea flexible pipe, and gas processing systems as FPSO FIDs increase, with industry forecasts suggesting six to eight additional FIDs through the remainder of 2026 and an average of eight FIDs per year through 2030. NOV is investing in capacity expansion, including a $200 million subsea flexible pipe manufacturing facility expansion in Brazil, to capitalize on strengthening offshore project economics driven by standardization and industrialization. Cost reduction initiatives are expected to begin offsetting tariff and inflationary pressures in the second half of 2026, with the company targeting over $100 million in annual savings by year-end 2026 through process simplification and operational efficiency improvements.
