Ternitz, January 18, 2006. Schoeller-Bleckmann Oilfield Equipment AG
(SBO), listed on the prime market of the Vienna Stock Exchange,
posted a clear rise in profit in 2005 according to preliminary
figures. Profit before tax went up to around MEUR 24 (following MEUR
15.5), an increase of approx. 55%. Based on preliminary figures,
group sales reached MEUR 172.6, some 13% above last year’s MEUR
152.2.
Bookings received were worth MEUR 268.8, up 66% against the previous
year (MEUR 161.5). With an all-time high order backlog of MEUR 134.0
as at December 31, 2005, the volume more than tripled over the
previous level of MEUR 38.8.
The overall economic environment in 2005 was highly gratifying for
the oilfield service industry. In the medium run, the strong demand
for oil and gas by the booming economies of Asia can be covered only
by exploring new reservoirs, which resulted in a sharp increase of
drilling activities in 2005. As a consequence, demand for oilfield
service equipment went up markedly.
SBO will publish the final results for fiscal 2005 having ended on
December 31, 2005 on March 15, 2006.
Schoeller-Bleckmann Oilfield Equipment AG is the global market leader
in high-precision components for the oilfield service industry. The
business focus is on non-magnetic drillstring components for
directional drilling. Worldwide, SBO employs a workforce of 913
(Dec.31, 2004: 809; adjusted for the Bafco subsidiary divested in the
first quarter of 2005), currently 234 at Ternitz, Lower Austria and
468 in North America (including Mexico).
