Baker Hughes Company (NYSE:BKR) is a Houston-based energy technology company that traces its roots back to 1987 when it went public, though the company's heritage extends much further through various predecessor entities. Originally known as Baker Hughes, a GE company following General Electric's acquisition and subsequent merger of its oil and gas business with Baker Hughes in 2017, the company regained its independence and current name in October 2019 when GE spun off its remaining stake. Today, Baker Hughes operates as one of the world's largest oilfield services companies and energy technology providers, serving customers across the global energy value chain from upstream oil and gas exploration to downstream processing and emerging energy technologies.
