Oil States Sells Houston Ship Channel Facility for $24.8 Million
(P&GJ) — Oil States International Inc. has finalized the sale of its idled Houston Ship Channel facility, generating $24.8 million in net proceeds. The sale is part of the company’s broader strategy to optimize its operations and improve financial flexibility.
The company announced the development during its third-quarter earnings call, outlining efforts to exit underperforming U.S. business lines, consolidate operations, and invest in new technologies like Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) systems.
“The consolidation of our Houston operations and completion of the sale of our Houston Ship Channel facility combined with the repurchase of our common stock adds momentum to the execution of our long-term strategy and demonstrates our commitment to enhance stockholder value,” said Cindy B. Taylor, President and CEO of Oil States.
The proceeds from the facility sale, coupled with cash on hand and operating cash flows, are expected to help reduce the company’s net debt.
Additionally, under its recently implemented $50 million share repurchase program, Oil States has bought back 1.5 million shares of its common stock for $7.9 million.
Taylor emphasized the company’s focus on offshore and international growth opportunities, technology investments, and domestic operational efficiency to maximize free cash flow and enhance shareholder returns.
