In other recent news, Halliburton has secured a significant drilling contract from Petrobras, marking the company’s most extensive service contract with the Brazilian state-controlled oil firm to date. The deal, which will commence in 2025, involves integrated drilling services for offshore fields in Brazil. Halliburton will deploy a suite of its advanced technologies, including the iCruise® intelligent rotary steerable system and LOGIX™ automation platform, to improve drilling efficiency and precision.

Meanwhile, several analysts have revised their price targets for Halliburton. Benchmark cut its price target from $40 to $35, Stifel reduced it from $42 to $37, and Goldman Sachs lowered its target from $36 to $34, all maintaining a Buy rating. Conversely, JPMorgan raised its target from $33 to $35 and also retained an Overweight rating. These adjustments follow Halliburton’s revised 2025 outlook and recent quarterly earnings.
