Halliburton reported flat total revenue of $5.4 billion in Q1 2026 versus the prior year, despite a 4% revenue decline in North America and a 13% contraction in the geopolitically challenged Middle East/Asia region. The company’s Completion and Production segment saw a revenue dip largely due to lower stimulation activity and Middle Eastern pressure pumping declines, while Drilling and Evaluation advanced by 4%, driven by Latin America and Europe growth. Operational focus remains on capital efficiency, digital transformation, and international expansion amid ongoing geopolitical and inflationary pressures. Liquidity remains robust with $2 billion cash, manageable debt, disciplined capex near $1.1 billion forecasted for the year, and continued shareholder returns through dividends and buybacks.
