Gulf of Mexico Opportunities Continued focus on HPHT market Deep and ultra-deep gas markets Secured market leadership Depths reaching 35,000 ft HTHP Service ~250 o C X Standard Product Performance ~100Mpa ~175Mpa ~240Mpa
Gulf of Mexico Opportunities Offshore pressure pumping Newly combined capabilities post-divestiture Blue Dolphin supported Macondo recovery effort Technology to be deployed as rig-dedicated kill pumps rigs New P&A regulation Inactive wells must be P&A within five years Current backlog exceeds 5,000 wells Strong position due to Baker Hughes/BJ Services synergies
Response to New Regulations Safety and Environmental Management System (SEMS) Competency assurance Quality standards Higher barriers to entry increases opportunities for Baker Hughes
Back to Work in the Gulf of Mexico Gulf of Mexico permitting activity Chief Bromwich announced near-term approval of deepwater permits Noble Energy MC 519 approved Feb 28 (6,500 ft water depth) Stone MC109 (TLP) sidetrack approved Feb 24 (1,030 ft water depth) Water injector drilling for reservoir maintenance outside of the moratorium
