Oilfield Services 16 October 2012 Americas/United States Equity Research Oil & Gas Equipment & Services Oilfield Services Research Analysts INITIATION James Wicklund 214 979 4111 [email protected] Wait 'til You See the Whites of Their Eyes Jonathan Sisto 212 325 1292 Exhibit 1: Credit Suisse’s 16-Year Aggregate Timing Model [email protected] 15.0% 8.0% Brittany Commins Large Cap 6.0% Equipment 212 325 7128 10.0% Land Rigs [email protected] 4.0% Offshore Rigs 5.0% 2.0% Mid Small Cap Offshore Service 0.0% 0.0% Seismic Workover -2.0% -5.0% Construction -4.0% Boats -10.0% AVG -6.0% US Rig Seasonality -15.0% -8.0% Source: Company data and Credit Suisse. ■ Our View: Oilfield service stocks generally trade sideways for the balance of the year, typically against a rising rig count. Not only is the rig count dropping but it is likely to continue dropping for at least the next four to six months. Pricing, which many thought had bottomed, has taken another step down, the extent of which was only known to management after they closed the books for the quarter. This sets up earnings disappointment and we think earnings and expectations get reset. Other than the relative safety of the equipment sector, we see no reason to chase the stocks into year-end. ■ Differentiation: We are clearly positive on the longer-term, almost “secular,” growth potential of domestic drilling. While well-to-well consistency has still eluded the industry, the ability to produce shale/tight sands is still under- appreciated. But the capex requirements for the service industry have been huge and the industry is significantly under-capitalized for the international shale boom. That continuing high capital outlay is at the expense of returns and any DCF-based valuation having a significant impact on valuation and sector multiple differentiation. Something has to give, and it is never pretty. ■ Stock Calls: North American (NAM) services are seeing falling volume and price—never a good combination. HAL and BHI are most effected, SLB next, followed by WFT, under our coverage. Althoguh a bit crowded and already popular, the equipment companies should continue to outperform, especially through year-end. We are initiating on CAM and HAL at Outperform and on BHI, FTI, SLB, and WFT at Neutral. When the market can better discount the price dynamics and the activity dynamics, we believe investors will come back to the stocks. For now, we are neutral on the sector through year-end.

FTI Neutral $44.02 $10,494 $49 11% Source: Bloomberg, Company data, and Credit Suisse estimates. Note: CS initiated coverage of Forum Energy Technologies (FET) in May 2012. Top Idea: Cameron International (CAM). It is risky because it is difficult to predict when or how management will fail to execute, but that is about the only thing that could get in the way. The company’s market positions have improved from regulation, acquisition and organic growth and with the longer-term growth potential in all types of manufacturing, as unappreciated as is the huge shift in capital allocation by the industry, it is in a number of sweet spots. We are initiating coverage of Halliburton (HAL) with an Outperform rating, though it is a bit qualified bias. The volatility to earnings from changes in price and activity in NAM completions is huge, and they are the biggest player. When both are going down, as they are now, get out of the way. When things are going up, load the boat. “When” is the issue and we are not sure it is now. We have discounted our computed multiple for HAL to risk that exposure yet still the valuation is exceptionally compelling. The company’s ability to generate improving returns and free cash flow will be a key issue. But overall, top management, excellent technology, and geographic depth are all distinct positives. It is just that things get better much more slowly than they get worse. We are initiating coverage of FMC Technologies (FTI) with a Neutral rating. FMC is the premier subsea equipment provider in the industry—period. A now $12 billion company that is the industry leader in the most defined growth sector is an enviable position. The increased number of rigs times the increased success rates of drilling equal higher and faster growth. But no company can wait for the future so growth is taking on some different directions. A problem contract lingers. Subsea pricing improvement is quarters away from hitting the income statement. Fabulous company but our valuation framework values it neutral. We are initiating coverage of Schlumberger (SLB) with a Neutral rating. SLB has been the 900-pound gorilla in the business forever. They lead the industry in technology, reach, and culture, with a huge number of ex-SLB people populating the top ranks of other service companies. It has the least NAM onshore service business of the Big 3, offshore is doing well, they own Russia and the seismic business has the best fundamentals of the industry right now and WesternGeco is the largest. But according to our matrix of valuation multiple versus economic return, SLB near-term appears over-valued. Trading at a ~60% premium to the closest peer that has better returns is difficult to justify. SLB could accelerate its returns and boost our valuation but our analysis shows that not likely to happen in 2013. We are initiating coverage of Weatherford International (WFT) with a Neutral rating. WFT is in limbo. It is too dangerous to be long or short. Longer term, we think long but there are hurdles ahead. Unabashed growth without enough back office discipline and Oilfield Services 2 16 October 2012 culture makes it the poster child of ramped-up capex at the expense of returns, and the ensuing crash. Fixes are being made but culture takes time. It isn’t enough to generate free cash flow, WFT has to have the processes, procedures and discipline to better manage capital. Hard to recommend without current financials. We are initiating coverage of Baker Hughes (BHI) with a Neutral rating. BHI is working on fixing a few things. When wheels come off in a slowing market, it is a double whammy. BHI will fix the pressure pumping business but first it needs some bigger customers with all that implies. Supply chain now under one roof is a big improvement. The cultural shift from product to geomarket always takes longer than expected but is well along. Martin is doing well. But the industry macro is not being BHI’s friend and while the company is right to try and gain better customers, it comes at a near-term cost. Divergence. Equipment design and manufacture overall well see excellent fundamentals for some time. The interruption of business from Macondo was longer lasting and slower coming back than had been hoped or expected. The ripple effect affected all market. Bids were lower with more concern about keeping a shop open than generating good margins. That has worked its way pretty much through the system. The consolidation has been fast and furious in the small private world. No so with service. Costs have hurt returns, low interest rates have fostered significant competition, a falling U.S. rigs count hurts. Preference. The DCFs of the equipment companies generally show significant upside from current values. Virtually all the service companies are under-water on the calculation. Different businesses have different dynamics but the DCF just looks at value from free cash flow. And that is the issue. The service companies have increased capex significantly over the past three to five years while returns have steadily dropped generating little, if any, free cash flow. The industry has changed. The capital equipment needed for the development of North American shale/tight sands reservoirs is huge. We see the well costs and think of the huge service cost inflation but much of that inflation is the service companies investing in the capital equipment they need to provide the service. And it will continue. We are significantly under-capitalized, as a service industry, for the eventual international shale boom. That is a key statement. We are going to have to do it all again for the international markets and keep it up, just like here. It is continual manufacturing that does not get to take much advantage of centralized locations.

  • The Economic Impacts of the Gulf of Mexico Oil and Natural Gas Industry
    The Economic Impacts of the Gulf of Mexico Oil and Natural Gas Industry Prepared For Prepared By Executive Summary Introduction Despite the current difficulties facing the global economy as a whole and the oil and natural gas industry specifically, the Gulf of Mexico oil and natural gas industry will likely continue to be a major source of energy production, employment, gross domestic product, and government revenues for the United States. Several proposals have been advanced recently which would have a major impact on the industry’s activity levels, and the economic activity supported by the Gulf of Mexico offshore oil and natural gas industry. The proposals vary widely, but for the purpose of this report three scenarios were developed, a scenario based on a continuation of current policies and regulations, a scenario examining the potential impacts of a ban on new offshore leases, and a scenario examining the potential impacts of a ban on new drilling permits approvals in the Gulf of Mexico. Energy and Industrial Advisory Partners (EIAP) was commissioned by the National Ocean Industry Association (NOIA) to develop a report forecasting activity levels, spending, oil and natural gas production, supported employment, GDP, and Government Revenues in these scenarios. The scenarios developed in this report are based solely upon government and other publicly available data and EIAP’s own expertise and analysis. The study also included profiles of NOIA members to demonstrate the diverse group of companies which make up the offshore Gulf of Mexico oil and natural gas industry as well as a list of over 2,400 suppliers to the industry representing all 50 states.

  • News from Hiring Source
    September 2015 A New Perspective on Crude Prices West Texas Intermediate flirted with $60 a barrel in June, but the commodity is unlikely to return to that neighborhood anytime soon. The world has just too much of the black stuff. The International Energy Agency puts the global surplus at 3.0 million barrels per day, which exceeds the combined daily output from the Eagle Ford (1.5 million barrels) and the Bakken (1.2 million barrels) oil basins. With slower growth expected in China, Iranian crude soon to hit global markets and OPEC’s refusal to cut production, crude will likely remain below $60 for some time. Analysts hoped for a brief downturn. They pointed to the plunging rig count in the spring, forecasted a decline in output by summer, and expected a rebound in prices by fall. In April, a month after WTI averaged $47 on the spot market, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) forecast crude to hit $55 this month and $70 by February. But the drop in U.S. production never materialized. Production is still 600,000 barrels above June 2014, the month in which WTI peaked at $108 per barrel. WTI now trades in the mid-$40s and the EIA doesn’t expect crude to reach $55 until the middle of next year. The futures market supports the EIA outlook. WTI contracted for December 2015 delivery now trades at $47 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Crude for delivery in December 2016 trades at $52. Weak oil prices have chewed up corporate balance sheets.

  • GE's $7.4 Billion Loss, Write-Off on Baker Hughes: Another Bad Bet On
    Kathy Hipple, Financial Analyst 1 Tom Sanzillo, Director of Finance Tim Buckley, Director of Energy Finance Studies, Australasia October 2019 GE’s $7.4 Billion Loss, Write-off on Baker Hughes: Another Bad Bet on Fossil Fuels Q3 Loss, Write-Off Likely to Be $9+ Billion; More Red Ink to Flow, as O&G Has $25 Billion of Goodwill on Balance Sheet Executive Summary General Electric, once a blue-chip stalwart in global markets, now struggles with declining revenues and earnings. One important thread that runs through the tattered cloth of GE’s decline is its misreading of changing dynamics in the energy sector. Throughout the ongoing energy transition, as GE has continued to bet heavily on fossil fuels, many of those bets have turned sour for the company and its shareholders. GE’s Oil & Gas (O&G) division’s 2017 merger with oil services company Baker Hughes was a particularly costly bet, one that epitomizes how GE has been blind-sided by the rapidly evolving energy transition. Over the past year, GE has formally announced it has taken, or will take, losses or write-offs of approximately $9.6 billion (bn)1 in connection with two partial sales of its stake in one of the world’s largest oil services companies, Baker Hughes, a GE company (BHGE). These losses include the company’s $2.2 bn Q4 2018 pre-tax loss on the first sale of BHGE shares in November 2018, and an estimated pre-tax loss 1 All figures are US$ unless noted.

  • Halliburton Look to the Future
    ENERGYPOINT Customer Satisfaction Update V. 1.1 RESEARCH Halliburton January 17, 2013 SATISFACTION Resilient Through the Ups and Downs RATINGS When EnergyPoint published its first-ever report in 2004, Halliburton was in the midst of a high-profile juggling act of sorts. The company was not only grappling with asbestos-related legal issues inherited as part of its ill- fated Dresser Industries acquisition, its now-jettisoned KBR subsidiary was taking flak, both in the media and in ATTRIBUTES Washington D.C., over a series of inutile contracts with the U.S. military. At the time, we weren't sure if these dual distractions were contributing to the company's then-lackluster oilfield customer satisfaction scores. In Rating Trend retrospect, it appears they were. Halliburton's ratings improved appreciably once the issues were resolved and management was able to more fully concentrate on its mainstay energy-services business. And concentrate it did. The company smartly swore off major acquisitions, choosing to focus on organic growth opportunities TOTAL SATISFACTION AVG STABLE within its existing portfolio. As shale development began to take off domestically, its hydraulic fracturing expertise became increasingly coveted by upstream clients. By mid 2009, after managing through the prerupt decline in global rig count in late 2008 and early 2009, our surveys indicated Halliburton was effectively hitting Job Quality AVG STABLE on all cylinders. Unfortunately, nothing lasts forever. As both demand and expectations grew, customer satisfaction began to decline in 2010. Everything from equipment wear and tear to soaring prices for guar gum Post Sale Support AVG STABLE played a part.
