Baker Hughes has disclosed the final closing of its previously announced joint venture with a subsidiary of Cactus, Inc., in which Baker Hughes has contributed its surface pressure control (SPC) product line.

Cactus, a global manufacturer and service provider of pressure control equipment for oil and gas drilling, completion, and production, holds a 65% equity in the joint venture, with Baker Hughes retaining a 35% stake.

The completion of this transaction represents an important milestone in Baker Hughes’ value-creation strategy, reinforcing the Company’s commitment to disciplined portfolio management, operational execution, and capital efficiency.

This transaction enhances earnings and cash flow durability, enables the redeployment of capital toward higher-return opportunities, and provides cash proceeds to further strengthen the balance sheet, all within a rigorous, returns-focused approach to capital allocation.
