Weatherford International: The Progress in Digital & Technological Adaptation

Weatherford International’s third-quarter 2025 performance exceeded expectations, demonstrating resilience despite ongoing market challenges. The company navigated a soft macroeconomic environment and operational headwinds, showing slight sequential growth in North America due to a seasonal boost in Canadian activity and a modest recovery in offshore businesses, although offset by a decline in U.S. land operations. Latin America marked a 10% revenue increase, primarily in Mexico, suggesting emerging stability after prior declines. Meanwhile, the Middle East, North Africa, and Asia regions contributed positively to sequential growth, with particularly strong performances in the UAE, Qatar, Australia, and Thailand. Despite these regional variations, Weatherford faces pricing pressures in certain commodity services, especially in the Middle East. However, the company remains committed to maintaining margins and margins expansion by avoiding unfavorable cash outcomes. Notably, the Middle East and North America continue to encounter pricing challenges, impacting margins and revenues.
