Prior period information has been restated for the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, which we adopted on January 1, 2018.
“We are now in the second year of our journey as BHGE. The Company’s operations are improving, and we are driving change in the industry with our differentiated portfolio. We are focused on commercial innovation, outcome-based models and leveraging our leading technology offerings to drive significant efficiency and productivity enhancements for BHGE and our customers. We remain focused on our priorities of gaining market share, increasing margin rates and delivering strong free cash flow," said Lorenzo Simonelli, BHGE Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“In the third quarter, we delivered $5.7 billion in orders and $5.7 billion in revenues. Adjusted operating income in the quarter was $377 million. Year-to-date we have generated $350 million of free cash flow. We delivered $224 million of synergies in the quarter and are on track to achieve the $700 million target for the year.
“In Oilfield Services (OFS), the market environment continues to improve, and our well construction product lines are seeing robust activity increases. We remain focused on gaining share in critical markets, and increasing the margin rate, which was up more than 400 basis points year-over-year. This quarter, we secured some critical wins in the Middle East and achieved a number of significant execution milestones with our customers across the Marcellus and Permian basins in North America. We saw strong growth in our Drilling Services and international Pressure Pumping product lines and we outperformed the market in the Middle East and Asia Pacific.

“In our Oilfield Equipment (OFE) segment, the outlook is steadily improving. This quarter we secured several wins across our portfolio, including our first newbuild blowout preventer (BOP) order since 2014. We are leveraging our flexible partnership models and enhancing our technology offering to drive better, more sustainable subsea economics for customers, and we are well positioned as the market continues to improve.
“In our Turbomachinery & Process Solutions (TPS) segment, we continue to see strength in the LNG market and BHGE is well positioned to benefit as customers move forward with new projects. In the quarter, we secured important awards in the upstream production and pipeline segments and are seeing improvements in our transactional services business. We remain focused on maintaining our LNG leadership and delivering on our cost-out initiatives.
“In our Digital Solutions (DS) segment, another quarter of strong execution led to solid revenue growth and over 350 basis points of margin expansion year-over-year. The oil and gas end markets continue to gain momentum, specifically in pipeline inspection. We are also gaining further traction with customers in our digital offerings and driving growth in our core hardware business across multiple industries, including aviation, automotive and consumer electronics.
“We are encouraged by the improved outlook for the macro environment. We expect both the North American and International markets to grow in 2019 as customers increase spending and overall rig and well counts grow. The offshore market is the strongest it has been in many years and the improving tender and order activity is an encouraging sign as we look out to 2019 and beyond. The LNG outlook is also improving, and we conservatively estimate a total of 65 million tons per annum of new capacity to be sanctioned by 2020. We remain well-positioned for the next build-cycle.
“We continue to leverage our differentiated technology, unique portfolio and our focus on customers to build market-leading product companies and deliver productivity solutions to the oil and gas industry. As we enter the second year of our journey as BHGE, we remain focused on what matters most - delivering for our customers and for our shareholders,” concluded Simonelli.

Quarter Highlights
Customer Wins
BHGE’s OFS segment was awarded the first large-scope integrated services contract for the Marjan field in Saudi Arabia, Saudi Aramco’s largest upstream development project this year, and the first of three major offshore expansions in Saudi Arabia. BHGE will provide integrated well construction technology and services, including its AutoTrak™ rotary steerable system, logging-while-drilling services, reservoir navigation services, coiled tubing and drilling fluids engineering services.
OFS also secured the largest-ever oilfield services contract awarded in Qatar, a five-year integrated drilling services contract to support offshore and onshore drilling activities. The Company was selected because of its exceptional performance, solid infrastructure and close customer partnership. This represents an important step in expanding BHGE’s integrated well services offering to customers in the Middle East.
BHGE's OFE segment secured important wins in the North Sea this quarter. Nexen Petroleum awarded the Company a contract to provide subsea production systems for the Buzzard Phase II project in the UK North Sea. BHGE will supply six medium-water horizontal subsea trees (production and water injection), wellheads and subsea and topside control systems for the project. BHGE will also provide oilfield services, including integrated drilling, evaluation, completions, intervention and other well-related services.
Also in the North Sea, OFE secured a three-year extension to a subsea services frame agreement with Equinor. As part of the agreement, BHGE will provide a wide-range of aftermarket and life-of-field management services, including repair, testing, offshore field-service support, well intervention and obsolescence management.
OFE won its first new build blowout preventer (BOP) order since 2014 for a semi-submersible drilling rig in Asia. BHGE will provide the subsea well control package, which consists of a five-cavity BOP stack, wellhead connectors, a subsea control system and a marine drilling riser system.
The TPS segment secured its fourth floating production storage and offloading vessel (FPSO) win of the year, up from just one FPSO in 2017. BHGE will provide gas turbine generators, drivers and electric motor driven compressors, and will work closely with the customer on all commercial and technical aspects of the project.
TPS’ Pipeline & Gas Processing business secured an award to provide turbocompressor packages, using the PGT25 Plus aeroderivative gas turbine technology with dry low emission combustors, at two compression stations on a pipeline in Canada.
The DS segment was awarded a large contract for condition monitoring and control systems at the Bruce Power Plant in Canada. The contract includes the Company’s industry-leading Mark VIe turbine controls as well as BHGE’s Bently Nevada condition monitoring technology, Security ST cybersecurity protection suite and turbine simulator software, which demonstrates BHGE’s unique ability to combine hardware and software successfully.
DS’ Condition Monitoring and Control Systems business is expanding into the mining segment, and this quarter secured a major contract with a customer in Latin America to deploy a plant-wide condition monitoring system across their operations. The wireless condition-based monitoring solution, which enables customers to gain access to data in hard-to-reach areas, is continuing to gain traction with customers in the Middle East, Latin America and North America.

Technology and Innovation
BHGE’s OFE segment is developing a new family of modular products that work together as an integrated subsea system to optimize life-of-well costs. Its new lightweight compact tree is 50% lighter than its predecessor and reduces manufacturing and installation costs. Its new compact block manifold reduces cycle time, cost and footprint. The Company is also developing the world’s first subsea multi-phase pump without a barrier fluid system, which allows the pump to be configured to different field requirements quickly and easily. The connecting system enables fast and reliable connections between all three elements, ensuring better reliability and reducing complexity and risk.
Executing for Customers
BHGE’s advanced drilling portfolio continues to deliver superior performance for customers. In the third quarter, BHGE set a drilling world record, delivering over nine thousand feet in a 24-hour period for a customer in the Marcellus. The team used its remote monitoring capabilities to ensure the well path stayed in the target zone 100% of the time, resulting in 35% lower drilling costs. Over the last three years, BHGE has drilled over a mile a day in more than 200 wells in the Marcellus and Utica basins, demonstrating its ability to deliver world-class results on a consistent and sustainable basis.
In the Permian this quarter, BHGE partnered with a large customer to improve drilling performance on existing assets. The Company’s leading drilling solutions including its AutoTrak™ Curve rotary steerable system, Dynamus™ Extended-Life drill bits and an experienced field crew delivered the first well 50% faster than planned, with very high accuracy.
In September, BHGE announced the successful deployment of its digital Plant Operations Advisor solution across BP’s operated platforms in the Gulf of Mexico, marking the largest "Industrial Internet of Things" deployment in the industry. BHGE has now started implementing the technology with another large international customer, demonstrating its ability to provide advanced software capabilities across different customer environments.

TPS revenue of $1,389 million for the quarter decreased $25 million, or 2%, year-over-year. The decrease was driven by lower equipment volume, partially offset by an increase in revenue in Services as well as Flow and Process Technologies businesses. Equipment revenue in the quarter represented 38% of total segment revenue, and Service revenue represented 62% of total revenue.
Segment operating income before tax for the quarter was $132 million, down $2 million, or 2%, year-over-year. The decline was driven primarily by lower volume, partially offset by deflation benefits and favorable cost productivity.

DS revenue of $653 million for the quarter increased 6% year-over-year, mainly driven by the Bently Nevada and Pipeline and Process Solutions businesses, partially offset with lower volume in the Controls business.
Segment operating income before tax for the quarter was $106 million, up 38% year-over-year. The increase year-over-year was primarily driven by increased productivity including synergy realization, and to a lesser extent by higher volume.

Table 1c reconciles net cash flows from operating activities, which is the directly comparable financial result determined in accordance with GAAP, to free cash flow (a non-GAAP financial measure). Free cash flow is defined as net cash flows from (used in) operating activities less expenditures for capital assets plus proceeds from disposal of assets.
Management provides non-GAAP financial measures in Tables 1a, 1b, and 1c because it believes such measures are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors and analysts to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance and liquidity, and that these measures may be used by investors to make informed investment decisions.
