Schlumberger, the world’s largest oil field services company, which has chopped 20,000 jobs, or 15 percent of its workforce, since the slump started hinted at further cost-cutting measures, but did not say whether any additional jobs are on the chopping block.
“In light of conservative customer budgets for next year, we are therefore entering another period during which we will continually adjust resources in line with activity, as the recovery now appears to be delayed,” Kibsgaard said in a statement.
===============
Halliburton chopped another 4,000 jobs worldwide during the third quarter as oil companies continue to idle rigs and throttle activity, and will consider further reductions if business doesn’t improve, the Houston-based oil field services company said Monday.
The reductions brings the total number of job losses across the company to 18,000, or 21 percent of Halliburton’s global workforce.
“These are always tough decisions affecting great people, but they are simply decisions we have to make,” President Jeff Miller said.
===============
Baker Hughes trimmed another 3,000 jobs from its payroll in the third quarter amid ongoing tough times in the U.S. oil patch that caused the Houston-based oil field services company to swing to a $159 million loss.
The most recent round of job cuts means the Houston-based oil field services company, which is preparing to fuse with rival firm Halliburton, has slashed 16,000 jobs across the world since the start of the year, according to the company’s quarterly filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. That’s about one in every four Baker Hughes employees worldwide.
“We remain focused on proactively managing our cost structure, efficiently reducing our working capital, and strategically targeting revenue opportunities to continue to increase profitability, generate positive cash flow, and maintain a strong balance sheet,” CEO Martin Craighead said in a statement Wednesday.
================
Weatherford International has ratcheted up its layoff plans, announcing Wednesday that it will lay off another 3,000 workers by the end of the year.
The company reached its goal of slashing 11,000 jobs in the third quarter, but a fresh fall in oil prices and slumping international revenues spurred the company to revise the target to 14,000 worldwide, with an increased focus on support positions, Weatherford said.
