"I am pleased with our performance in 2024. We generated over $2.6 billion dollars of free cash flow, and returned over $1.6 billion dollars of cash to our shareholders," commented Jeff Miller, Chairman, President and CEO.

"While we expect 2025 to be sequentially softer in North America, we begin the second half of this decade in a great position, with a transformed balance sheet, leading returns, and strong free cash flow.

"I am excited about the long term outlook for Halliburton. I expect to execute our value proposition, deepen our technology portfolio, and drive value through our growth engines: drilling technology, unconventionals, well intervention, and artificial lift," concluded Miller.

Operating Segments

Completion and Production

Completion and Production revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 was $3.2 billion, a decrease of $121 million, or 4% sequentially, while operating income was $629 million, a decrease of $40 million, or 6%. These results were primarily driven by lower stimulation activity in North America and decreased pressure pumping services in Latin America. Partially offsetting these decreases were higher year-end completion tool sales and improved artificial lift activity in North America and the Middle East, and increased stimulation activity in Africa and the Middle East.
