Uk bjs used sap years before bhi you idiot. You really are ill informed.. Show yourself as a fool again.......... come on
I am new at pressure pumping less than 5 years but before that I worked at Rankin road . From what I see pressure pumping was a complete joke in the industry . The people that came from BJ Services were lazy and did not want to learn SAP or any of the Baker culture . For this reason our company is struggling today !
Rubbish. The BHI integration team made a real hash of the mapping across of sap . The UK and the US was a shambles. Never the less ! BJS was a better company than BHI , moral, employees were much more at home than in Baker !!!!!! Baker is a small Halliburton. Pushed by greed and substandard treatment of employees. Ask yourself this. Were you happier at BJS or BHI ?????? then comes Hal....... You just have to read into the corruption, ethics, and the lack of humanity and respect to the environment , personnel to see where you would be heading.... Think for a few minutes on that. You have been warned...
Pressure pumping is almost finished , stick a fork in them ! We should have never bought those losers . pressure pumping brought Baker Hughes down .
The downslide in PP started right after the BJS purchase by BHI. Someone at BHI decided that BJS could convert from JDE to SAP in record time, something like 9 months. The BHI conversion team came in and did it, they completed their project on time and walked away. The aftermath was PP region and district managers had no idea how to get the data they needed to operate. Employees got about a 15 minute intro to using SAP and were on their own after that. To this day, you can't get what you need to manage a district.
Pressure pumping and cementing UK were ran into the ground for years before Baker took over. All they got was scraps and abandonments. It is even worse now with the UK present PP management. It is a dead useless product line with prehistoric equipment, tools and an inefective senior management that the company would do better without. The situation in the UK for cementing and pumping divisions was writing on the wall years ago. Serves Baker right for that lame buy. If Aberdeen PP and Cementing was a stock on its own . i would dump this as fast as possible. Rubbish division.
If it was not for Baker Hughes pressure pumping would have been gone a few years ago . It was a poorly run company that Baker tried to help but it would not embrace the Baker way . PP is a complete failure Baker should have never bought that company .
Pressure pumping needs to go. It must be sold.

Its not pressure pumping management that ran the former BJ Services into the groud it is Baker Hughes...prior to the "merger" it was a pretty good company. That is until Uncle Bill decided he needed to maximize his stock options and selling out...just like cousin Martin!
Another product line you don't want to wish on HAL is the non core polymers chemical business. It has nothing to do with HAL's business and the remaining misfits in that business need to do their back stabbing elsewhere.
Eli is coming , days are running shorter Pressure Pumping was a thorn in Baker Hughes side . Now that the pressure pumping management have run it to the ground. It will probably fail to exist ,
HAL will sell off pressure pumping. If a buyer is not available the equipment that HAL doesn't choose to keep will be sold. There could possibly be some employees HAL may cherry pick, highly doubtful. Just one spectator ' s observation.
