“Our first quarter international tender activity was strong, Halliburton won meaningful integrated offshore work extending through 2026 and beyond. Customers awarded Halliburton several contracts that demonstrate the strength of our value proposition and the power of our service quality execution.
“I am excited by the strong adoption of our groundbreaking technologies. We achieved the world’s first closed-loop, autonomous fracturing operation. I believe this unlocks the next big step in unconventionals.

Operating Segments
Completion and Production
Completion and Production revenue in the first quarter of 2025 was $3.1 billion, a decrease of $253 million, or 8% when compared to the first quarter of 2024, while operating income was $531 million, a decrease of $157 million, or 23%. These results were primarily driven by decreased pressure pumping services and lower completion tool sales in the Western Hemisphere. Partially offsetting these decreases were increased completion tool sales and improved stimulation activity in the Middle East.
Drilling and Evaluation
Drilling and Evaluation revenue in the first quarter of 2025 was $2.3 billion, a decrease of $134 million, or 6% when compared to the first quarter of 2024, while operating income was $352 million, a decrease of $46 million, or 12%. These results were primarily driven by decreased drilling services in Mexico and the Middle East, reduced project management activity in Mexico, and lower wireline activity in the Middle East/Asia. Partially offsetting these decreases was increased fluid services in the Middle East.
Geographic Regions
North America
North America revenue in the first quarter of 2025 was $2.2 billion, a 12% decrease when compared to the first quarter of 2024. This decline was primarily driven by lower stimulation activity in US Land and decreased completion tool sales in the Gulf of America. Partially offsetting these decreases were higher artificial lift activity and improved drilling services in US Land and increased stimulation activity in the Gulf of America.
International
International revenue in the first quarter of 2025 was $3.2 billion, a decrease of 2% when compared to the first quarter of 2024.
Latin America revenue in the first quarter of 2025 was $896 million, a decrease of 19% year over year. This decrease was primarily due to lower activity across multiple product service lines in Mexico and decreased completion tool sales across the region. Partially offsetting these decreases were increased drilling-related services in Argentina, Brazil, and the Caribbean.
Europe/Africa revenue in the first quarter of 2025 was $775 million, an increase of 6% year over year. This increase was primarily driven by improved activity across multiple product service lines in Norway, higher well construction activity in Namibia, as well as improved completion tools sales in the Caspian Area. Partially offsetting these increases was decreased activity across multiple product service lines in Senegal and Italy.
Middle East/Asia revenue in the first quarter of 2025 was $1.5 billion, an increase of 6% year over year. This improvement was due to higher activity across multiple product service lines in Kuwait, increased stimulation activity and improved completion tool sales in Saudi Arabia, and increased fluid services in the United Arab Emirates. Partially offsetting these increases were lower well construction activity in Saudi Arabia and Australia, decreased completion tool sales in Malaysia, and reduced drilling-related activity in Oman.
