Exhibit 99.1
Baker Hughes Announces Fourth Quarter and Annual Results
HOUSTON, Texas January 25, 2011. Baker Hughes Incorporated (BHI NYSE) today announced
net income attributable to Baker Hughes for the fourth quarter 2010 of $335 million or $0.77 per
diluted share compared to $84 million or $0.27 per diluted share for the fourth quarter 2009 and
$255 million or $0.59 per diluted share for the third quarter 2010. Net income attributable to
Baker Hughes for the year 2010 was $812 million or $2.06 per diluted share, compared to $421
million or $1.36 per diluted share for the year 2009.
Income attributable to Baker Hughes for the fourth quarter 2010, excluding acquisition-related
costs and a gain on investment, was $366 million or $0.84 per diluted share.
Revenue for the fourth quarter 2010 was $4.42 billion, up 82% compared to $2.43 billion for the
fourth quarter 2009 and up 8% compared to $4.08 billion for the third quarter 2010. Revenue for
the year 2010 was $14.41 billion, up 49% compared to $9.66 billion for the year 2009.
Results for the year 2010 include results of BJ Services starting from May 2010 unless otherwise
stated.
Chad C. Deaton, Baker Hughes chairman and chief executive officer, said, In North America, margins
increased almost 500 basis points sequentially reflecting the ongoing strength of customer spending
in unconventional oil and gas plays and price realization. Given high oil prices and relatively
low gas prices, customers are increasing drilling in crude oil and liquids rich natural gas plays
where service intensity continues to increase. The trend toward longer horizontal wells with more
frac stages is benefitting our directional drilling systems, completions and pressure pumping
sales.
We continue to make good progress with the integration of BJ Services and Baker Hughes. We are
increasing the pull through of Baker Hughes products into pressure pumping projects and have also
been able to leverage our leadership in drilling and completions technology to pull through
pressure pumping.
Given the ongoing delays in permitting new work offshore in the Gulf of Mexico, particularly in
the deepwater, many operators have increased workover activity in order to offset production
Baker Hughes Incorporated News Release | Page 2 | |
Baker Hughes Announces Fourth Quarter and Annual Results |
declines from existing fields. In the fourth quarter 2010, we benefitted from increased share of
the incremental workover and completion activity as well as increased interest in drilling deep
high pressure high temperature wells on the shelf. However, we remain concerned about the pace of
permit approval, for both deepwater and shelf drilling, which continues to weigh on the outlook for
the Gulf of Mexico.
International operating profit margins improved 375 basis points sequentially in the quarter as a
result of reduced support costs, improving productivity and seasonally strong product sales.
Margins improved sequentially in all regions except Africa where margins were unchanged.
International pricing appears to have bottomed in some markets and in some product lines. We are
continuing to execute our plans to increase international profit margins.
Looking ahead, we expect the economic recovery to continue resulting in increased oil demand and
support for higher oil prices and a sustained multi-year expansion of international spending.
However, at the current pace, we do not expect meaningful price leverage in our international
markets until late 2011.
Debt increased by $39 million to $3.88 billion and cash and short-term investments decreased by
$150 million to $1.71 billion compared to the third quarter 2010. Capital expenditures were $486
million, depreciation and amortization expense was $326 million and dividend payments were $66
million in the fourth quarter 2010. Capital expenditures were $1.49 billion, depreciation and
amortization expense was $1.07 billion and dividend payments were $241 million in the year 2010.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization or EBITDA per diluted share for
fourth quarter 2010 was $2.18, up $1.07 or 96% compared to $1.11 for the fourth quarter 2009 and up
$0.54 or 33% compared to $1.64 for the third quarter 2010. EBITDA for the year 2010 was $6.63 per
diluted share up $1.93 or 41% from $4.70 for the year 2009. EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and is
calculated in Table 1 (Calculation of EBIT and EBITDA (non-GAAP measures)).
In addition to reported results, we are also providing Supplemental Financial Information in
Table 3 for revenue and operating profit before tax (a non-GAAP measure). This information
presents pro forma combined revenue and operating profit before tax for Baker Hughes and BJ
Services for all periods referenced and reflects the current estimated depreciation and
amortization expense associated with the acquisition of BJ Services.

1 | Before April 2010 we reported results for two segments Drilling and Evaluation and Completion and Production. In May 2009, we announced a new organization for Baker Hughes and began a transition period in which both product line and geographic information were used to allocate resources and assess performance. That transition was completed at the beginning of the second quarter 2010 and we are now disclosing results for five segments: North America (Canada, US and Trinidad), Latin America (including Mexico), Europe/Africa/Russia Caspian (excluding Egypt), Middle East/Asia Pacific (including Egypt), and Industrial and Other (downstream chemicals, process and pipeline equipment, and reservoir technology and consulting). Information on Baker Hughes historical results by these new segments can be found on our website at www.bakerhughes.com/investor in the Financial Information section. | |
2 | Profit before tax margin is a non-GAAP measure defined as profit before tax (income before income taxes) divided by revenue. Management uses the profit before tax margin because it believes it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors and analysts to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance. |

Table 3: Supplemental Financial Information (Pro Forma Combined Basis)1
The following table contains non-GAAP measures of segment revenue, operating profit before
tax2, and operating profit before tax margin3. Management uses this
information to perform meaningful comparisons between quarters and believes that this information
may be useful to investors. It is based on revenue and operating profit before tax: (1) previously
reported by Baker Hughes in all periods; and (2) previously reported by BJ Services for the quarter
ended December 31, 2009. Revenue and operating profit before tax have been reclassified into Baker
Hughes new segments. Operating profit before tax for all periods includes pro forma charges of
$33 million per quarter for depreciation and amortization of tangible and intangible assets
associated with the acquisition of BJ Services and a credit to corporate interest expense of $3
million, for a net of $30 million. The historical allocation to segments of depreciation and
amortization of tangible and intangible assets associated with the acquisition of BJ Services is
the same as the actual allocation of these charges in May through December 2010. No adjustments
have been made for cost or revenue synergies or any other integration related items that may have
affected these quarters. Operating profit before tax for Baker Hughes and BJ Services also excludes
expenses for reorganization, severance, impairment, and increases to allowance for doubtful
accounts identified by each of the companies in their respective earnings news releases for the
quarter ended December 31, 2009. Supplemental financial information for the first quarter 2008
through the fourth quarter 2010 can be found on our website at www.bakerhughes.com/investor in the
Financial Information section.

Operational Highlights
North America
The service intensity of land-based drilling in North America continues to escalate as we advance
our capability to leverage pressure pumping and Baker Hughes legacy product lines. For example we
were recently awarded a multi-well 90-stage program in the Williston Basin that includes drilling,
completions, wireline perforating, bits, cementing and pressure pumping.
In the Alberta oil sands, our Xtreme Temperature ESP system set a record run life in a Steam
Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) application of more than 800 days of continuous operation in one
of the harshest ESP environments. In addition, 17 CENtigrate UltraTemperature ESP systems were
installed and now have more than 2,570 days of operation.
Also in Canada, we have received an exclusive award from EnCana to utilize our 43/4 TruTrak
systems on coil-tubing rigs in the Entice coal bed methane project where the customer plans to
drill 1,200 shallow vertical and directional wells over the next 18 months.
In the Gulf of Mexico, we have been awarded a four-year contract by Chevron for deepwater pressure
pumping services. The award recognizes the unique capacity and delivery capabilities of our two
world-class pressure pumping vessels.
We successfully continue to meet operational performance requirements and develop new technologies
through collaborative contracts at McMoRans Deep Gas Projects in the Gulf of Mexicos most
challenging HPHT environments, with temperatures of 450° F and pressures of 27,000 psi.
Latin America
In the Brazil geomarket, we recently achieved a milestone, having drilled more than 2,000,000 feet
mostly at water depth greater than 1,000 feet, where our customers challenges for drilling
operations are greatest. We have been awarded the installation of complete cuttings handling and
drying systems for seven rigs being built for Petrobras. Once the installations are completed, the
number of deepwater rigs serviced by BHI Fluids Environmental Services in Brazil will increase to
34.
In Bolivias San Alberto gas field, we installed one of the worlds deepest HPHT Level IV
Multilateral well completion Intelligent Well Systems (IWS) at 14,400 ft.

Europe/Africa/Russia Caspian
Baker Hughes continues to see success in the introduction of new technology into the Continental
Europe geomarket. As operators extend their reach into more difficult and hostile environments,
they see the cost benefits that technology can bring. As an example, in Southeastern Poland we are
drilling a two well exploration program with depth at 18,000 feet for conventional oil for POGC
utilizing the AutoTrak-V system.
The Russia Caspian geomarket was recently awarded cementing services, liner hangers, completion
systems, drill bits and advanced wireline for the giant South Yoletan field in Turkmenistan. This
field is believed to be one of the largest and most challenging natural gas fields in the world.
The customer expects to drill up to 25 wells over the next three years.
In the Sub-Saharan Africa geomarket, we were recently awarded a contract to provide oilfield
chemicals and associated services for the Jubilee deepwater project located offshore Ghana.
Middle East/Asia Pacific
In the Saudi Arabia/Bahrain geomarket Baker Hughes is packaging Microwash remediation fluid with
coiled tubing services. Treatment with Microwash cleans screens used in the completions of a large
number of wells in Saudi Arabia, in some cases doubling production from treated wells.
Also in Saudi Arabia we have performed the inaugural deployment of the Ultra-Slim Equalizer, which
has the same proven functionality as the larger size Equalizers; however, it enables clients to
drill slim laterals (less than 5 hole size) and complete them ensuring higher recovery.
Across the Middle East we have completed a series of successful field trials with the new
Mechanical Pipe Cutter. The new wireline tool is proving its ability to efficiently make multiple
cuts per run, reducing rig time required to retrieve stuck drill pipe or tubing during workover
operations. In Saudi Arabia, where a rig had suffered from stuck drillpipe for almost four weeks
and where several competitors had been unsuccessful, the MPC severed the pipe on the first attempt,
allowing drilling operations to resume.
In the Australasia geomarket, a US super major has recently awarded Baker Hughes an ultra-deepwater
drilling and evaluation contract for a period of up to seven years. The first well is planned to
commence in November 2011 from the drillship using a wide selection of advanced Baker Hughes
drilling systems, logging-while-drilling technology and drill bits.

Baker Hughes Announces Fourth Quarter and Annual Results |
An international oil company (IOC) recently awarded Baker Hughes an ultra-deepwater drilling and
evaluation contract on the SAIPEM-10K drillship for a period of two years plus a one-year option.
The scope of work includes Indonesia, India and Sub-Sahara Africa.
In the Southeast Asia geomarket, Baker Hughes achieved a significant milestone in the Ultra HTHP
play winning Drilling Fluids and FES work from an IOC in Malaysia. Work is expected to start in
fourth quarter 2011. The work scope is very challenging with well depths of 4,500 m (14,765 ft)
TVD, expected Bottom Hole Temperature (BHT) of 260°C (500°F) and mud weights greater than 2.25 SG
(18.8 lb/gal).
The North Asia geomarket was awarded a major portion of the multi-segment services contract for the
Chuandongbei Gas Project in Southwestern China by an IOC for a three-year period with options for
another two years, based on our sour gas services experience. The contracts awarded include
directional drilling and LWD, bits, fishing and milling, liner hangers, drilling fluids and waste
management (FES). The 28-35 wells will range in depth from 4500 m to 7000 m and will be highly
deviated. The production zones can have up to 17% H2S and 9% CO2 and elemental sulfur in a
carbonate tight gas reservoir.
In China we have successfully installed a SubSepTM downhole oil-water separator in one
of an IOCs wells and delivered high water separation efficiency, pumping the separated water into
a disposal zone thereby freeing up surface process capacity, which allowed the operator to
significantly increase oil production by ramping up other wells. Based on these findings the IOC
is planning to run two more systems in 2011.
