HALLIBURTON COMPANY
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements and should be read together with our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our accounting policies are in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect:
-
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and
-
the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.

Ultimate results could differ from our estimates.

In our opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2019 and the results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, and our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

In addition, certain reclassifications of prior period balances have been made to conform to the current period presentation. In conjunction with our adoption of the new lease accounting standard, capital leases, which are now referred to as finance leases, have been reclassified on our balance sheet as of December 31, 2018. This consisted of $88 million reclassified from property, plant and equipment to other assets and $109 million reclassified from long-term debt to other liabilities. See Note 5 and Note 11 for further information on the new lease standard.

The results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 may not be indicative of results for the full year.

Note 2. Impairments and Other Charges
    
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized certain impairments and other charges as we continue to adjust our cost structure and footprint to the current operating environment. The following table presents various pre-tax charges we recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, in addition to the six months ended June 30, 2018, which are reflected within "impairments and other charges" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. There were no impairments and other charges recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Note 3. Business Segment and Geographic Information

We operate under two divisions, which form the basis for the two operating segments we report: the Completion and Production segment and the Drilling and Evaluation segment. Intersegment revenue was immaterial. Our equity in earnings and losses of unconsolidated affiliates that are accounted for using the equity method of accounting are included within cost of services and cost of sales on our statements of operations, which is part of operating income of the applicable segment.

The following table presents information on our business segments.

(a) Corporate and other includes certain expenses not attributable to a particular business segment, such as costs related to support functions and corporate executives.
(b) For the three months ended June 30, 2019, amount includes $77 million attributable to Completion and Production, $142 million attributable to Drilling and Evaluation, and $28 million attributable to Corporate and other. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, amount includes $127 million attributable to Completion and Production, $153 million attributable to Drilling and Evaluation, and $28 million attributable to Corporate and other. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized a pre-tax charge of $265 million related to a write-down of all of our remaining investment in Venezuela. See Note 2 for further discussion on these impairments and other charges. There were no such impairments and other charges recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Receivables
As of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, 43% of our net trade receivables were from customers in the United States. Other than the United States, no other country or single customer accounted for more than 10% of our trade receivables at these dates. We routinely monitor the financial stability of our customers and employ an extensive process to evaluate the collectability of outstanding receivables. This process, which involves a high degree of judgment utilizing significant assumptions, includes analysis of our customers’ historical time to pay, financial condition and various financial metrics, debt structure, credit agency ratings, and production profile, as well as political and economic factors in countries of operations and other customer-specific factors.

Note 4. Revenue

Revenue is recognized based on the transfer of control or our customers' ability to benefit from our services and products in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services and products. The vast majority of our service and product contracts are short-term in nature. In recognizing revenue for our services and products, we determine the transaction price of purchase orders or contracts with our customers, which may consist of fixed and variable consideration. We also assess our customers' ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including our customers' historical payment experience and financial condition. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 20 to 60 days. Other judgments involved in recognizing revenue include an assessment of progress towards completion of performance obligations for certain long-term contracts, which involve estimating total costs to determine our progress towards contract completion and calculating the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize.

Disaggregation of revenue
We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into types of services or products, consistent with our two reportable segments, in addition to geographical area. Based on the location of services provided and products sold, 54% and 59% of our consolidated revenue was from the United States for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. No other country accounted for more than 10% of our revenue. The following table presents information on our disaggregated revenue.

Contract balances
We perform our obligations under contracts with our customers by transferring services and products in exchange for consideration. The timing of our performance often differs from the timing of our customer’s payment, which results in the recognition of receivables and deferred revenue. Deferred revenue represents advance consideration received from customers for contracts where revenue is recognized on future performance of service. Deferred revenue, as well as revenue recognized during the period relating to amounts included as deferred revenue at the beginning of the period, was not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent firm contracts for which work has not been performed and future revenue recognition is expected. We have elected the practical expedient permitting the exclusion of disclosing remaining performance obligations for contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. We have some long-term contracts related to software and integrated project management services such as lump sum turnkey contracts. For software contracts, revenue is generally recognized over time throughout the license period when the software is considered to be a right to access our intellectual property. For lump sum turnkey projects, we recognize revenue over time using an input method, which requires us to exercise judgment. Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations for these long-term contracts is not material.

Note 5. Leases

We adopted a comprehensive new lease accounting standard effective January 1, 2019. The details of the significant changes to our accounting policies resulting from the adoption of the new standard are set out below. We adopted the standard using the optional modified retrospective transition method; accordingly, the comparative information as of December 31, 2018 and for the three and six months ending June 30, 2018 has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under the previous lease standard. Under the new lease standard, assets and liabilities that arise from all leases are required to be recognized on the balance sheet for lessees. Previously, only capital leases, which are now referred to as finance leases, were recorded on the balance sheet. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recognition of approximately $1.1 billion of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact our condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. See Note 11 for additional information about the new accounting standard.

Beginning January 1, 2019, for all leases with a term in excess of 12 months, we recognized a lease liability equal to the present value of the lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing our right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For operating leases, lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, while finance leases include both an operating expense and an interest expense component. For all leases with a term of 12 months or

7
Table of Contents

less, we elected the practical expedient to not recognize lease assets and liabilities. We recognize lease expense for these short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

We are a lessee for numerous operating leases, primarily related to real estate, transportation and equipment. The vast majority of our operating leases have remaining lease terms of 10 years or less, some of which include options to extend the leases, and some of which include options to terminate the leases. We generally do not include renewal or termination options in our assessment of the leases unless extension or termination for certain assets is deemed to be reasonably certain. The accounting for some of our leases may require significant judgment, which includes determining whether a contract contains a lease, determining the incremental borrowing rates to utilize in our net present value calculation of lease payments for lease agreements which do not provide an implicit rate, and assessing the likelihood of renewal or termination options. We also have some lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for as a single lease component. For certain equipment leases, such as offshore vessels and drilling rigs, we account for the lease and non-lease components separately.

The following tables illustrate the financial impact of our leases as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, along with other supplemental information about our existing leases:

As of December 31, 2018, future total rentals on our noncancellable operating leases were $975 million in the aggregate, which consisted of the following: $275 million in 2019; $146 million in 2020; $122 million in 2021; $100 million in 2022; $78 million in 2023; and $254 million thereafter.

Note 6. Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. In the United States, we manufacture certain finished products and parts inventories for drill bits, completion products, bulk materials and other tools that are recorded using the last-in, first-out method, which totaled $189 million as of June 30, 2019 and $186 million as of December 31, 2018. If the average cost method had been used, total inventories would have been $21 million higher than reported as of June 30, 2019 and $24 million higher as of December 31, 2018. The cost of the remaining inventory was recorded using the average cost method. We had $3.3 billion of inventory as of June 30, 2019, an 11% increase from December 31, 2018, primarily associated with a build-up of our artificial lift and directional drilling inventory. Inventories consisted of the following:

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental
We are subject to numerous environmental, legal and regulatory requirements related to our operations worldwide. In the United States, these laws and regulations include, among others:
-
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act;
-
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act;
-
the Clean Air Act;
-
the Federal Water Pollution Control Act;
-
the Toxic Substances Control Act; and
-
the Oil Pollution Act.

In addition to the federal laws and regulations, states and other countries where we do business often have numerous environmental, legal, and regulatory requirements by which we must abide. We evaluate and address the environmental impact of our operations by assessing and remediating contaminated properties in order to avoid future liabilities and comply with environmental, legal and regulatory requirements. Our Health, Safety and Environment group has several programs in place to maintain environmental leadership and to help prevent the occurrence of environmental contamination. On occasion, we are involved in environmental litigation and claims, including the remediation of properties we own or have operated, as well as efforts to meet or correct compliance-related matters. We do not expect costs related to those claims and remediation requirements to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated financial position. Our accrued liabilities for environmental matters were $64 million as of June 30, 2019 and $42 million as of December 31, 2018. Because our estimated liability is typically within a range and our accrued liability may be the amount on the low end of that range, our actual liability could eventually be well in excess of the amount accrued. Our total liability related to environmental matters covers numerous properties.

Additionally, we have subsidiaries that have been named as potentially responsible parties along with other third parties for six federal and state Superfund sites for which we have established reserves. As of June 30, 2019, those six sites accounted for approximately $14 million of our $64 million total environmental reserve. Despite attempts to resolve these Superfund matters, the relevant regulatory agency may at any time bring suit against us for amounts in excess of the amount accrued. With respect to some Superfund sites, we have been named a potentially responsible party by a regulatory agency; however, in each of those cases, we do not believe we have any material liability. We also could be subject to third-party claims with respect to environmental matters for which we have been named as a potentially responsible party.

Guarantee arrangements
In the normal course of business, we have agreements with financial institutions under which approximately $2.1 billion of letters of credit, bank guarantees or surety bonds were outstanding as of June 30, 2019. Some of the outstanding letters of credit have triggering events that would entitle a bank to require cash collateralization. None of these off balance sheet arrangements either has, or is likely to have, a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 9. Income per Share

Basic income per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share includes additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares with a dilutive effect had been issued. Antidilutive shares represent potential common shares which are excluded from the computation of diluted income per share as their impact would be antidilutive.

A reconciliation of the number of shares used for the basic and diluted income per share computations is as follows:

Note 10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash and equivalents, receivables and accounts payable, as reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximates fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments.

The carrying amount and fair value of our total debt, including short-term borrowings and current maturities of long-term debt, is as follows:
 
June 30, 2019
 
December 31, 2018

Our debt categorized within level 1 on the fair value hierarchy is calculated using quoted prices in active markets for identical liabilities with transactions occurring on the last two days of period-end. Our debt categorized within level 2 on the fair value hierarchy is calculated using significant observable inputs for similar liabilities where estimated values are determined from observable data points on our other bonds and on other similarly rated corporate debt or from observable data points of transactions occurring prior to two days from period-end and adjusting for changes in market conditions. Differences between the periods presented in our level 1 and level 2 classification of our long-term debt relate to the timing of when third party market transactions on our debt are executed. We have no debt categorized within level 3 on the fair value hierarchy.

Note 11. New Accounting Pronouncements
    
Leases
Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted an accounting standard update issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) related to accounting for leases, which requires lessees to record assets and liabilities that arise for all leases on their balance sheet and expanded financial statement disclosures for both lessees and lessors. Previously, only capital leases were recorded on the balance sheet. This update requires lessees to recognize a lease liability equal to the present value of its lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term for all leases longer than 12 months. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and liabilities and instead recognize lease expense for such leases

Table of Contents

generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with a term of longer than 12 months will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement.

We adopted this standard using the optional modified retrospective transition method. As such, the comparative financial information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the lease standard in effect during those periods. We also elected other practical expedients provided by the new standard, including the package of practical expedients, the short-term lease recognition practical expedient in which leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recognized on the balance sheet, and the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for the majority of our leases. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recognition of approximately $1.1 billion of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on our balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. Additionally, capital leases have been reclassified on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 to conform to current period presentation. This consisted of $88 million reclassified from property, plant and equipment to other assets and $109 million reclassified from long-term debt to other liabilities. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. See Note 5 for our expanded lease disclosures required by the new standard.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Organization
We are one of the world's largest providers of products and services to the energy industry. We help our customers maximize value throughout the lifecycle of the reservoir - from locating hydrocarbons and managing geological data, to drilling and formation evaluation, well construction and completion, and optimizing production throughout the life of the asset. Activity levels within our operations are significantly impacted by spending on upstream exploration, development and production programs by major, national and independent oil and natural gas companies. We report our results under two segments, the Completion and Production segment and the Drilling and Evaluation segment:
-
our Completion and Production segment delivers cementing, stimulation, intervention, pressure control, specialty chemicals, artificial lift, and completion products and services. The segment consists of Production Enhancement, Cementing, Completion Tools, Production Solutions, Pipeline and Process Services, Multi-Chem and Artificial Lift.
-
our Drilling and Evaluation segment provides field and reservoir modeling, drilling, evaluation and precise wellbore placement solutions that enable customers to model, measure, drill and optimize their well construction activities. The segment consists of Baroid, Sperry Drilling, Wireline and Perforating, Drill Bits and Services, Landmark Software and Services, Testing and Subsea, and Consulting and Project Management.

The business operations of our segments are organized around four primary geographic regions: North America, Latin America, Europe/Africa/CIS and Middle East/Asia. We have manufacturing operations in various locations, the most significant of which are located in the United States, Canada, Malaysia, Singapore and the United Kingdom. With approximately 60,000 employees, we operate in more than 80 countries around the world, and our corporate headquarters are in Houston, Texas.

Financial results
We demonstrated solid execution in the second quarter of 2019 against the backdrop of a volatile commodity pricing environment. We generated total company revenue of $5.9 billion during the second quarter of 2019, a 4% decrease as compared to the second quarter of 2018. Total company operating income was $303 million during the second quarter of 2019, which included $247 million of impairments and other charges, compared to operating income of $789 million in the second quarter of 2018. Our Completion and Production segment revenue decreased 9% from the second quarter of 2018, primarily driven by lower activity and pricing for stimulation services in North America, while our Drilling and Evaluation segment revenue increased 7% from the second quarter of 2018, with activity improvements across all international geographic regions. We continue to build on the growth momentum internationally and are successfully managing the market dynamics in North America.

Our North America revenue decreased 13% in the second quarter of 2019, as compared to the second quarter of 2018, primarily driven by lower activity and pricing for stimulation services in U.S. land, partially offset by higher artificial lift and well construction activity. However, compared to the first quarter of 2019, our revenue increased 2% as we experienced a modest improvement in hydraulic fracturing activity combined with stable pricing. During the second quarter of 2019, we also more efficiently utilized our equipment and have taken steps to reduce operating costs, which yielded higher operating margins in our Completion and Production segment.

Revenue in our international markets increased 13% in the second quarter of 2019, as compared to the second quarter of 2018, resulting primarily from higher completion tool sales across all international regions, increased well construction services in Europe/Africa/CIS, and activity improvements for the majority of our product service lines in Mexico. We continue to see a broad-based recovery across numerous international geographies, primarily driven by land and shallow water operations.

Business outlook
Our industry is going through a transformation brought on by the shale revolution and the recent down-cycle. The industry has removed substantial costs from the system and introduced significant efficiencies. Many of our customers in North America have shifted their strategy from production growth to operating within cash flow and generating returns. These customers are focused on maximizing production per every dollar of capital spending, and technology that can improve well productivity will be key to their success. We believe we are well positioned to assist our customers achieve this through our value proposition of collaborating with them to engineer solutions that deliver the lowest cost per barrel.


13
Table of Contents

In North America, while we experienced a modest improvement in hydraulic fracturing activity from the first quarter to the second quarter of 2019, we expect activity reductions in the second half of the year. Our customers remain focused on staying within their capital spending budgets and some customers are expected to slow down and scale back their completion programs for the rest of the year. We anticipate this slow down to be more pronounced in gas basins due to persisting lower gas prices. In light of expected softness in activity, we have been taking certain measures to continue to drive growth in our North America business and have been taking steps to reduce operating costs in this market. For example, we recently restructured our North American organization, removing several layers of management, which has changed our cost profile and increased our market responsiveness. We will continue to evaluate cost reduction opportunities across the company, and we intend to manage and adjust the size of our North America operations for the market environment.

Internationally, momentum continues to build and we expect activity improvement to continue in 2020. Pricing is trending upward as equipment supply and demand balance tightens in various geographies, and we have the footprint and the expanded technology portfolio to capitalize on this international growth. Our business in the North Sea has been busy, and we have significantly increased our market penetration in this area. We see similar dynamics in the Asia Pacific markets, with Malaysia, Australia and India all showing strong activity growth, and increased activity should lead to better pricing dynamics. We also anticipate growth in the broader offshore market. In June 2019, the year-over-year change in the monthly offshore rig count was up for the twelfth consecutive month and appears to be gaining momentum. Over the last decade, we have taken strategic actions that have increased the number and type of markets in which we can compete. These actions include substantial investments to grow our international footprint, where we increased our product service line presence in various geographies, expanded our manufacturing capacity in Singapore, and opened technology centers in Saudi Arabia, India and Brazil. In addition, we made strategic investments and closed technology gaps in the product service lines that are critical to our success in international markets. All of these efforts provide us with a strong base to capitalize on the international recovery.

During the first half of 2019, we had $845 million of capital expenditures, a decrease of 21% from the first half of 2018, as we adjusted to market conditions. These capital expenditures were predominantly in our Sperry Drilling, Production Enhancement, Wireline and Perforating, Artificial Lift, and Production Solutions product service lines. We expect our full year 2019 capital expenditures will be $1.6 billion, a 20% decrease from 2018, with the majority of the reduction coming from North America. The capital that we spend this year in the U.S. is mostly directed towards increasing efficiency, reducing emissions and investing in new technologies.

We intend to continue to strengthen our product service lines through a combination of organic growth, investment and selective acquisitions. We plan to continue executing the following strategies through the end of 2019:
-
directing capital and resources that differentiate our service and product offerings into strategic markets around the world;
-
collaborating and engineering solutions to maximize asset value for our customers;
-
leveraging our broad technology offerings to provide value to our customers and enable them to more efficiently drill and complete their wells;
-
investing in technology that will help our customers reduce reservoir uncertainty, increase operational efficiency and improve well productivity;
-
improving working capital and managing our balance sheet to maximize our financial flexibility;
-
seeking additional ways to be one of the most cost-efficient service providers in the industry by maintaining capital discipline and leveraging our scale and breadth of operations; and
-
striving to achieve superior returns and cash flow generation for our shareholders.
 
Our operating performance and business outlook are described in more detail in “Business Environment and Results of Operations.”

Financial markets, liquidity, and capital resources
We believe we have invested our cash balances conservatively and secured sufficient financing to help mitigate any near-term negative impact on our operations from adverse market conditions. As of June 30, 2019, we had $1.2 billion of cash and equivalents and $3.5 billion of available committed bank credit under our revolving credit facility. We believe this provides us with sufficient liquidity to address the challenges and opportunities of the current market. For additional information on market conditions, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Business Environment and Results of Operations.”

Table of Contents

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2019, we had $1.2 billion of cash and equivalents, compared to $2.0 billion of cash and equivalents at December 31, 2018.

Significant sources and uses of cash during the first six months of 2019
Sources of cash
- Cash flows from operating activities were $407 million. This included a negative impact from the primary components of our working capital (receivables, inventories and accounts payable) of a net $755 million, primarily associated with what we expect are short-term changes related to customer payment delays and a build-up of inventory related to our strategic technology deployments.
Uses of cash
- Capital expenditures were $845 million and were predominantly made in our Sperry Drilling, Production Enhancement, Wireline and Perforating, Artificial Lift, and Production Solutions product service lines.
- We paid $314 million in dividends to our shareholders.
- We repurchased approximately 4.5 million shares of our common stock under our share repurchase program at a total cost of $100 million.

Future sources and uses of cash
We manufacture most of our own equipment, which allows us flexibility to increase or decrease our capital expenditures based on market conditions. Capital spending for the full year 2019 is currently expected to be approximately $1.6 billion, a decrease of 20% from 2018, as we remain committed to maintaining capital discipline.
 
Currently, our quarterly dividend rate is $0.18 per common share, or approximately $157 million. Subject to Board of Directors approval, our intention is to continue paying dividends at our current rate during 2019. Our Board of Directors has authorized a program to repurchase our common stock from time to time. Approximately $5.2 billion remained authorized for repurchases as of June 30, 2019 and may be used for open market and other share purchases.

Other factors affecting liquidity
Financial position in current market. As of June 30, 2019, we had $1.2 billion of cash and equivalents and $3.5 billion of available committed bank credit under our revolving credit facility. Furthermore, we have no financial covenants or material adverse change provisions in our bank agreements, and our debt maturities extend over a long period of time. We believe our cash on hand, cash flows generated from operations and our available credit facility will provide sufficient liquidity to address the challenges and opportunities of the current market and our global cash needs, including capital expenditures, working capital investments, dividends, if any, and contingent liabilities.

Guarantee agreements. In the normal course of business, we have agreements with financial institutions under which approximately $2.1 billion of letters of credit, bank guarantees or surety bonds were outstanding as of June 30, 2019. Some of the outstanding letters of credit have triggering events that would entitle a bank to require cash collateralization.

Credit ratings. Our credit ratings with Standard & Poor’s (S&P) remain A- for our long-term debt and A-2 for our short-term debt, though S&P changed the outlook for our debt from stable to negative during the second quarter of 2019. Our credit ratings with Moody’s Investors Service (Moody's) remain Baa1 for our long-term debt and P-2 for our short-term debt, with a stable outlook.
 
Customer receivables. In line with industry practice, we bill our customers for our services in arrears and are, therefore, subject to our customers delaying or failing to pay our invoices. In weak economic environments, we may experience increased delays and failures to pay our invoices due to, among other reasons, a reduction in our customers’ cash flow from operations and their access to the credit markets as well as unsettled political conditions. If our customers delay paying or fail to pay us a significant amount of our outstanding receivables, it could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.

Table of Contents

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We operate in more than 80 countries throughout the world to provide a comprehensive range of services and products to the energy industry. A significant amount of our consolidated revenue is derived from the sale of services and products to major, national, and independent oil and natural gas companies worldwide. The industry we serve is highly competitive with many substantial competitors in each segment of our business. During the first six months of 2019, based upon the location of the services provided and products sold, 54% of our consolidated revenue was from the United States, compared to 59% of consolidated revenue from the United States in the first six months of 2018. No other country accounted for more than 10% of our revenue.

Operations in some countries may be adversely affected by unsettled political conditions, acts of terrorism, civil unrest, force majeure, war or other armed conflict, sanctions, expropriation or other governmental actions, inflation, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, foreign currency exchange restrictions and highly inflationary currencies, as well as other geopolitical factors. We believe the geographic diversification of our business activities reduces the risk that an interruption of operations in any one country, other than the United States, would be materially adverse to our consolidated results of operations.

Activity within our business segments is significantly impacted by spending on upstream exploration, development and production programs by our customers. Also impacting our activity is the status of the global economy, which impacts oil and natural gas consumption.

Some of the more significant determinants of current and future spending levels of our customers are oil and natural gas prices and our customers' expectations about future prices, global oil supply and demand, completions intensity, the world economy, the availability of credit, government regulation and global stability, which together drive worldwide drilling and completions activity. Additionally, many of our customers in North America have shifted their strategy from production growth to operating within cash flow and generating returns. Lower oil and natural gas prices usually translate into lower exploration and production budgets and lower rig count, while the opposite is usually true for higher oil and natural gas prices. Our financial performance is therefore significantly affected by oil and natural gas prices and worldwide rig activity, which are summarized in the tables below.

Crude oil prices have been extremely volatile over the past five years. WTI oil spot prices declined significantly beginning in 2014 from a peak price of $108 per barrel in June 2014 to a low of $26 per barrel in February 2016, a level which had not been experienced since 2003. Since the low point experienced in early 2016, oil prices increased substantially, with WTI oil spot prices reaching a high of $77 per barrel in June 2018. In late 2018, oil prices again declined with WTI oil spot prices reaching a low of $44 per barrel in December, but have since risen to a high of $66 per barrel in April 2019 while averaging $60 per barrel during the second quarter of 2019.

In the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA) July 2019 "Short Term Energy Outlook," the EIA projects Brent prices to average $67 per barrel in the second half of 2019 and remain at that level in 2020, while WTI prices are projected to average $62 per barrel in the second half of 2019 and $63 per barrel in 2020. Crude oil production in the United States is now projected to average 12.4 million barrels per day in 2019, a 13% increase from 2018. Additionally, the EIA projects that U.S. production will increase 7% in 2020 to an average of 13.3 million barrels per day. The International Energy Agency's (IEA) July 2019 "Oil Market Report" forecasts the 2019 global demand to average approximately 100.3 million barrels per day, which is down from their April 2019 projection of 100.6 million barrels per day reflecting expectations of weakening demand, but up 1.2% from 2018 demand, driven by an increase in the Asia Pacific region, while all other regions remain approximately the same.

The Henry Hub natural gas spot price averaged $2.56 per MMBtu in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of $0.30 per MMBtu, or 10%, from the second quarter of 2018. The EIA July 2019 “Short Term Energy Outlook” projects Henry Hub natural gas prices to average $2.50 per MMBtu in the second half of 2019 and $2.77 per MMBtu in 2020.

North America operations
During the second quarter of 2019, the average United States land rig count decreased 5%, as compared to the second quarter of 2018. However, we experienced a modest improvement in hydraulic fracturing activity combined with stable pricing from the first quarter to the second quarter of 2019. We expect activity reductions in the second half of 2019 as customers remain focused on staying within their capital spending budgets with some customers expected to slow down and scale back their completion programs for the rest of the year. We anticipate this slow down to be more pronounced in gas basins due to persisting lower gas prices. Overall, we expect customer spending for the full year 2019 to decrease in North America as compared to 2018.

International operations
The average international rig count for the second quarter of 2019 was up 15% compared to the second quarter of 2018. We continue to see a broad-based recovery across numerous international geographies, primarily driven by land and shallow water operations. Momentum continues to build internationally and we expect activity improvement to continue in 2020. Pricing is trending upward as equipment supply and demand balance tightens in various geographies. We believe we are well-positioned for continued growth as a result of the significant investments we made to grow our global footprint in the last cycle.

Venezuela. As we have previously disclosed, the general license issued by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the U.S. Department of Treasury, which allows us to continue operating in Venezuela despite OFAC sanctions imposed against the Venezuelan energy industry, will expire on July 27, 2019. Consequently, unless OFAC extends the term of the general license, we will cease operations in Venezuela on that date in order to comply with the sanctions. In that event, it is unlikely that we will be able to remove our assets that remain in Venezuela and those assets may be expropriated. Since we have previously written down all of our investment in Venezuela and have maintained limited operations in this country during the general license period, we do not expect the expiration of the license to have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial condition.

Consolidated revenue was $5.9 billion in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of $217 million, or 4%, as compared to the second quarter of 2018. Consolidated operating income was $303 million during the second quarter of 2019, a 62% decrease from operating income of $789 million in the second quarter of 2018. This decline was primarily driven by lower activity and pricing for stimulation services in U.S. land, partially offset by increased well construction activity globally, higher completion tool sales in Middle East/Asia, and increased artificial lift activity in U.S. land. Operating results were also impacted by $247 million of impairments and other charges during the second quarter of 2019. See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on these charges. Revenue from North America was 56% of consolidated revenue in the second quarter of 2019, compared to 62% of consolidated revenue in the second quarter of 2018.

OPERATING SEGMENTS

Completion and Production
Completion and Production revenue in the second quarter of 2019 was $3.8 billion, a decrease of $359 million, or 9%, from the second quarter of 2018. Operating income in the second quarter of 2019 was $470 million, a decrease of $199 million, or 30%, from the second quarter of 2018. These decreases were primarily driven by lower activity and pricing for stimulation services in U.S. land, partially offset by higher completion tool sales and cementing activity globally and increased artificial lift activity in U.S. land.

Drilling and Evaluation
Drilling and Evaluation revenue in the second quarter of 2019 was $2.1 billion, an increase of $142 million, or 7%, from the second quarter of 2018, primarily related to higher wireline activity globally. We also experienced activity improvements across all international geographic regions. Operating income in the second quarter of 2019 was $145 million, a decrease of $46 million, or 24%, compared to the second quarter of 2018, resulting primarily from reduced profitability for drilling-related services and project management services globally as a result of mobilization costs and lower pricing.

GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS

North America
North America revenue in the second quarter of 2019 was $3.3 billion, a 13% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2018. These results were primarily driven by lower activity and pricing for stimulation services in U.S. land, partially offset by higher artificial lift and well construction activity.

Latin America
Latin America revenue in the second quarter of 2019 was $571 million, a 19% increase compared to the second quarter of 2018, resulting primarily from higher activity for the majority of our product service lines in Mexico, increased completion tool sales in Brazil, and increased well construction services in Argentina. These results were partially offset by reduced cementing and fluids activity in Brazil.

Europe/Africa/CIS
Europe/Africa/CIS revenue in the second quarter of 2019 was $823 million, a 13% increase compared to the second quarter of 2018, primarily driven by increased well construction services across the region and higher activity across multiple product service lines in the North Sea.

Middle East/Asia
Middle East/Asia revenue in the second quarter of 2019 was $1.2 billion, a 9% increase compared to the second quarter of 2018, largely resulting from increased completion tool sales across the region, higher stimulation activity in the Middle East, and increased wireline and drilling activity in Asia Pacific. Partially offsetting these increases were lower drilling-related services and project management activity in the Middle East.

OTHER OPERATING ITEMS

Impairments and other charges were $247 million in the second quarter of 2019, primarily related to asset impairments and severance costs. See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on the second quarter charges. There were no such charges in the second quarter of 2018.

NONOPERATING ITEMS

Effective tax rate. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a total income tax provision of $74 million on pre-tax income of $151 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 48.5%. Our effective tax rate during the second quarter of 2019 was significantly impacted by the $247 million in pre-tax impairments and other charges recorded during the period as we did not recognize a corresponding financial statement tax benefit for the majority of these charges. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a total income tax provision of $125 million on pre-tax income of $633 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 19.8%. Our effective tax rates for both periods were also impacted by the geographic mix of earnings during the respective periods.

Consolidated revenue was $11.7 billion in the first six months of 2019, a decrease of $220 million, or 2%, as compared to the first six months of 2018. Consolidated operating income was $668 million in the first six months of 2019, a 42% decrease from operating income of $1.1 billion during the first six months of 2018. This decline was primarily driven by lower activity and pricing for stimulation services in U.S. land, partially offset by increased well construction activity globally, increased artificial lift activity in U.S. land, and higher completion tool sales internationally. Operating results in the first six months of 2019 were also impacted by $308 million of impairments and other charges, while operating results in the six months of 2018 included $265 million of impairments and other charges related to Venezuela. See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on these charges. Revenue from North America was 57% of consolidated revenue in the first six months of 2019, compared to 62% of consolidated revenue in the first six months of 2018.

OPERATING SEGMENTS

Completion and Production
Completion and Production revenue in the first six months of 2019 was $7.5 billion, a decrease of $504 million, or 6%, compared to the first six months of 2018. Operating income in the first six months of 2019 was $838 million, a decrease of $331 million, or 28%, compared to the first six months of 2018. These results were primarily driven by lower activity and pricing for stimulation services in U.S. land, partially offset by higher completion tool sales and cementing activity globally, increased artificial lift activity in U.S. land, and increased stimulation activity in Latin America.

Drilling and Evaluation
Drilling and Evaluation revenue in the first six months of 2019 was $4.2 billion, an increase of $284 million, or 7%, compared to the first six months of 2018, primarily related to higher wireline activity globally and increased project management activity in India and Latin America. We also experienced activity improvements across all geographic regions. Operating income in the first six months of 2019 was $268 million, a decrease of $111 million, or 29%, compared to the first six months of 2018, resulting primarily from reduced profitability for drilling-related services globally and project management services in the Middle East as a result of mobilization costs and lower pricing.

North America
North America revenue in the first six months of 2019 was $6.6 billion, a 10% decrease compared to the first six months of 2018. These results were driven by lower activity and pricing for stimulation services in U.S. land, partially offset by higher artificial lift and well construction activity.

Latin America
Latin America revenue in the first six months of 2019 was $1.2 billion, a 24% increase compared to the first six months of 2018, resulting primarily from higher activity for the majority of our product service lines in Mexico and Argentina, increased completion tool sales in Brazil, and higher project management activity in Ecuador. These results were partially offset by reduced cementing and fluids activity in Brazil.

Europe/Africa/CIS
Europe/Africa/CIS revenue in the first six months of 2019 was $1.6 billion, a 9% increase from the first six months of 2018, primarily due to increased well construction services across the region and higher activity across multiple product service lines in the North Sea and Israel.

Middle East/Asia
Middle East/Asia revenue in the first six months of 2019 was $2.3 billion, an 8% increase from the first six months of 2018, primarily resulting from increased completion tool sales and cementing activity throughout the region, higher stimulation activity in the Middle East, improved wireline activity in Asia Pacific, and increased project management activity in India. These results were partially offset by reduced project management and fluids activity in the Middle East.

OTHER OPERATING ITEMS

Impairments and other charges were $308 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily related to asset impairments and severance costs. This compares to $265 million of charges in the six months ended June 30, 2018, representing a write-down of all of our remaining investment in Venezuela. See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on these charges.

NONOPERATING ITEMS

Effective tax rate. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded a total income tax provision of $114 million on pre-tax income of $343 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 33.0%. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a total income tax provision of $267 million on pre-tax income of $822 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 32.5%. Our effective tax rate for these periods were significantly impacted by the impairments and other charges recorded during the respective periods as we did not recognize a corresponding financial statement tax benefit for the majority of these charges. Additionally, our effective tax rate for both periods were impacted by a geographic mix of earnings during the respective periods.
