据离岸工程4月23日报道，根据能源服务公司贝克休斯(Baker Hughes)报告称，2021年第一季度净亏损4.52亿美元，而去年同期亏损102亿美元。
该公司公布的去年第四季度盈利6.53亿美元。其记下了亏损，因为其将其投资的人工智能公司C3.ai的价值减记了7.88亿美元。
在截至2021年3月31日的季度，该公司的收入同比下降了12%，至48亿美元。该公司本季度收到的订单价值45.4亿美元，同比下降18%。
该公司将订单同比下降归因于油田服务和油田设备订单量下降，部分被数字解决方案、涡轮机械和工艺解决方案的增长所抵消。
该公司在新闻声明中称，设备订单同比下降18%，服务订单也下降了18%。
该季度的营业收入为1.64亿美元，而去年同期的营业亏损为160.6亿美元。
贝克休斯董事长兼首席执行官Lorenzo Simonelli表示，我们对第一季度的业绩感到满意，因为我们创造了强劲的自由现金流，继续推进我们的成本支出努力，并在执行我们的战略方面采取了进一步有意义的措施。

Baker Hughes net loss narrows to $452m in Q1
Energy services firm Baker Hughes has reported a net loss of $452m for the first quarter of 2021, compared with a $10.2bn loss in the same quarter last year.
The company posted a profit of $653m in the fourth quarter of 2020. It booked losses as it wrote down the value of its investment artificial intelligence company C3.ai by $788m.
For the quarter ending 31 March 2021, the company’s revenue declined 12% year-over-year to $4.8bn.
The company received orders worth $4.54bn during the quarter, which represents a decline of 18% year-over-year.
The company attributed a year-over-year decline in orders to lower order intake in oilfield services and oilfield equipment, partially offset by growth in digital solutions and turbomachinery and process solutions.
Year-over-year equipment orders plummeted by 18% and service orders also fell by 18%, the company said in its press statement.
Operating income for the quarter stood at $164m as against an operating loss of $16.06bn a year ago.
Baker Hughes chairman and CEO Lorenzo Simonelli said: “We are pleased with our first-quarter results as we generated strong free cash flow, continued to drive forward our cost-out efforts and took further meaningful steps in the execution of our strategy.
