中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社8月3日休斯敦报道,世界第三大油田服务提供商美国贝克休斯公司首席执行官马丁?克雷黑德3日在公司收益电话会议结束后对采访他的媒体记者说,贝克休斯公司认为今年北美洲钻井和定价将不会出现实质性的复苏,克雷黑德的此番讲话与其更大的竞争对手斯伦贝谢公司和哈里伯顿公司日前所作的有关评论形成了鲜明对比。
不过,在贝克休斯公司说该公司预计其业务利润由于最近裁员和其他重组行动而提高以后,该公司的股票上涨了大约3%至每股45.88美元。
克雷黑德说:“我不赞成(斯伦贝谢公司和哈里伯顿公司日前所作的)满怀希望的评论。”
世界最大油田服务提供商斯伦贝谢公司上周说,石油衰退似乎已经触底,而世界第二大油田服务提供商哈里伯顿公司说该公司预计北美洲的在用钻机数在今年下半年将“适度上涨”。

North America recovery unlikely this year: Baker Hughes
August 03, 2016
Houston
Oilfield services provider Baker Hughes said it did not expect a substantial recovery in drilling and pricing in North America this year, in contrast with comments from bigger rivals Schlumberger and Halliburton Co.
Baker Hughes' shares, however, rose about 3 per cent to $45.88 after the company said it expected margins to improve across its businesses due to recent job cuts and other restructuring actions.
"I don't subscribe to the hopeful commentary," Baker Hughes Chief Executive Martin Craighead said on a post-earnings conference call.
Schlumberger said last week the oil downturn appeared to have bottomed out, while Halliburton said it expected a "modest uptick" in North American rig count in the second half of 2016. -- Reuters
