Manufacturing facilities, engineering centres, and service locations support customers operating in diverse geological environments and production conditions.
Operations are organised into Energy Equipment and Energy Products and Services, allowing the company to supply both large-scale capital equipment and ongoing operational support throughout the lifecycle of energy assets.
Operational developments remain focused on technology
Automation continues to play an expanding role across drilling and production activities. NOV has introduced digital systems designed to improve equipment monitoring, drilling efficiency, predictive maintenance, and operational connectivity.
Remote monitoring platforms, intelligent drilling technologies, and data-enabled equipment are increasingly incorporated into customer operations. These systems support real-time operational visibility while complementing traditional mechanical equipment supplied across global energy projects.
The company also continues developing composite materials used in industrial piping applications. These products are designed for corrosion resistance and are deployed across oil, gas, industrial processing, and infrastructure projects.
Within the broader NYSE Composite, technology integration has become an increasingly important theme across industrial energy suppliers as customers modernise operational processes.
Equipment portfolio spans multiple energy applications
The company's drilling technologies include top drives, blowout prevention equipment, drill pipe handling systems, mud pumps, drilling motors, and well construction tools. Production equipment extends to artificial lift technologies, fluid handling systems, completion equipment, and production optimisation solutions.
Beyond conventional oil and gas operations, selected technologies are supplied to geothermal, offshore wind, carbon management, and other industrial energy applications where engineering expertise and specialised equipment remain essential.
Manufacturing capabilities also include marine cranes, offshore structures, flexible piping technologies, and pressure control equipment supporting offshore production environments.
Geographic footprint supports international markets
Operations extend across major hydrocarbon-producing regions through manufacturing plants, engineering facilities, service centres, and distribution networks. Customers include national oil companies, independent exploration companies, integrated energy producers, drilling contractors, and industrial operators.
International diversification allows equipment and services to support a wide range of exploration, development, production, transportation, and maintenance activities. Regional service centres provide equipment refurbishment, replacement components, technical support, inspection services, and maintenance programmes.
Industrial demand continues to originate from conventional drilling, offshore developments, shale production, liquefied natural gas infrastructure, and energy transportation projects operating across numerous countries.
