“Our first quarter results reflect operating in a very volatile market environment during the first few months of 2022. On the positive side, we recorded strong orders from TPS as the LNG order cycle continues to unfold. However, we did see some challenges in other parts of the business, which continue to see pressures from broader global supply chain constraints, as well as some impact from the recent geopolitical events. I would like to thank our team for their hard work and commitment to deliver for our customers and continue to execute our strategy,” said Lorenzo Simonelli, Baker Hughes chairman and chief executive officer.

“As we look ahead to the rest of 2022, we see a favorable oil and gas price backdrop but also a dynamic operating environment. The recent and unfortunate geopolitical events are exacerbating several trends, including broad-based inflation and supply pressures for key materials, commodities and labor. Despite some of the challenges, we are optimistic on the outlook across both of our core business areas and excited about the new energy investments we are making for Baker Hughes. We believe that we are well positioned to benefit from an extended cyclical recovery in upstream oil & gas and longer-term structural growth trends in LNG, new energy and industrial asset management.

“Baker Hughes remains committed to helping deliver energy globally in a safe, clean and reliable manner. We also remain committed to a net-zero future and leadership in the energy transition, while we will continue to perform for shareholders,” concluded Simonelli.
