原标题：今年全球3大油田服务公司拟出售资产和业务

中国石化新闻网讯 据海上石油新闻2020年1月18日纽约/丹佛报道，由于斯伦贝谢公司、哈里伯顿公司和贝克休斯公司寻求重塑他们的业务和适应不断下降的需求，这3家全球最大的油田服务公司将在新的一年开始出售他们的资产和业务。

据路透社报道，由于投资者追求更高的股东回报，而不是更多的钻探活动，油田服务提供商正面临油气生产商支出减少的局面，而激烈竞争也迫使油田服务公司退出利润较低的业务。

根据咨询公司Spears Associates公布的统计数据，这3家油田服务巨头占据全球油田服务市场大约26%的份额。

此次资产出售可能为这3家全球最大油田服务公司筹集总计8亿美元的资金。哈里伯顿公司去年裁减了超过8%的北美员工，斯伦贝谢公司去年10月减记了127亿美元资产。

据报道，哈里伯顿公司在一份声明中表示：“我们认为这样做是最好的，这样我们就可以专注于油藏生命周期的核心产品和服务。我们希望在年中前完成一笔交易。”

据路透社报道，斯伦贝谢公司和贝克休斯公司拒绝置评。

Big three oilfield service firms start year with asset sales

Schlumberger, Halliburton and Baker Hughes have reportedly kicked off the new year by putting units up for sale, as the three largest names in oilfield services seek to reshape their businesses and adjust to falling demand.

According to Reuters, oilfield service providers are facing reduced spending by oil and gas producers as investors push for higher shareholder returns rather than more drilling activity. Competition also is forcing service companies to exit less profitable businesses.

The trio, which hold about 26% of the global oilfield services market, according to consultancy Spears Associates, recently disclosed plans to review operations in light of declining demand for their services.

The asset sales, which could raise $800 million combined for the trio, come amid cost cutting. Halliburton last year cut more than 8% of its North American staff and Schlumberger booked a $12.7 billion writedown in October.

“We believe this is best so we can focus on products and services core to the lifecycle of the reservoir,” Halliburton was reported to have said in a statement, confirming the marketing of its pipeline and process service business. It hopes to close a sale by mid-year.

Schlumberger and Baker Hughes declined to comment, according to the Reuters report.
