Patterson-UTI Energy Inc.
Patterson-UTI Energy Inc. (PTEN) is a US-based oilfield services company specialising in land drilling rigs and associated pressure‑pumping services. Investors should know the business is highly cyclical: revenue and cash flow depend on drilling activity, oil and gas prices, rig utilisation and contract durations. The company operates a sizeable fleet and often requires significant capital expenditure to maintain or upgrade equipment, while balance-sheet strength and leverage can shape resilience during downturns. With a market capitalisation of about US$2.32bn, PTEN may offer exposure to recovery in onshore U.S. activity, but it also faces commodity price risk, competition and operational complexity. Performance can be volatile and past results do not guarantee future returns.
