What Management Said

Here are the key debates and direct quotes from Halliburton Company's Q4 2025 earnings call:

Potential Reentry into Venezuela

Sentiment: Positive

"We move equipment around all over the world. So we can move equipment quite quickly. We still have a footprint there in Venezuela... and so, you know, getting equipment there to work is fairly straightforward." — Jeffrey Miller
"I’m excited about the tremendous opportunity for Halliburton in Venezuela. The early steps are already well underway." — Jeffrey Miller

North America Stimulation Market and Pricing Stability

Sentiment: Positive

"Attrition is accelerating at a time when new capital investment is falling. Equipment is working harder than it ever has due to widespread adoption of continuous pumping and simul frac." — Jeffrey Miller
"Pricing is fairly stable at this point... I think we’re at a bottom, and I would expect that improves over time." — Jeffrey Miller

Middle East Activity and Growth Outlook

Sentiment: Mixed

"Middle East... think it’s flattish, flattish, maybe even down slightly. But overall, the rest of the Middle East is very, very solid business." — Jeffrey Miller
"We’re taking a bit more conservative view of the timing and pacing of [Saudi Arabia’s activity] coming back, but rigs being added in Saudi Arabia is very positive." — Jeffrey Miller

Power Market Expansion and VoltaGrid Partnership

Sentiment: Positive

"There’s just no question that there’s not enough electricity power generation in the world today... very confident in this, and I think it could be a very big business over time." — Jeffrey Miller
"These are typically very long-term contracts... and if we look at North America, you could say the returns are probably higher than what we have today." — Eric Carre

2026 Margin Progression and SAP Spending

Sentiment: Positive

"We anticipate the project to complete in Q4 of this year... with expected savings of about $100 million a year, after the project is completed." — Eric Carre
"The second half looks stronger than the first half, most certainly... North America is taking a conservative posture." — Jeffrey Miller
