In North America, revenue surged by more than $2.3 billion, driven by strong activity both on land and offshore as well as by the penetration of innovative hydraulic stimulation technologies. International revenue increased by $1.2 billion, or 4%, on significant strength in the Middle East & Asia and in spite of considerable headwinds in the face of activity challenges, geopolitical unrest, falling oil prices, and international sanctions elsewhere. Oil markets remained relatively well balanced during 2014 as increasing global Paal Kibsgaard production capacity almost matched increasing demand. Yet, after more than Chief Executive Officer three years of remarkable stability, oil prices dropped dramatically by more than 40% late in the year to end at their lowest levels since 2009. But unlike the previous fall in price that was triggered by a global economic recession, this year’s drop resulted from a higher marketed supply of oil that became increasingly evident as North American tight oil production continued to grow and as OPEC shifted focus from protecting oil prices to protecting market share. At the same time, production recovered in countries that had suffered degrees of geopolitical disturbance, and the US dollar strengthened to further weaken overall commodity prices. In natural gas markets, US prices reached multiyear highs in February on exceptionally cold weather and risks of local supply shortages. Storage, however, returned to historical average levels at the end of the year as sustained production growth in the Marcellus play and increasing associated gas production in US tight oil plays more than offset the impact of low activity levels in other unconventional plays.
