About
Diamondback Energy is one of the largest and lowest-cost oil producers in the Permian Basin, founded in 2007 and headquartered in Midland, Texas, trading on Nasdaq (FANG). The company completed the landmark acquisition of Endeavor Energy Resources in September 2024 for approximately $26 billion—the largest private company acquisition in Permian Basin history—transforming Diamondback into the third-largest Permian producer behind ExxonMobil-Pioneer and Occidental Petroleum. Pro forma for Endeavor, Diamondback produces approximately 880,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day from its combined Midland and Delaware Basin acreage. CEO Travis Stice, a founding team member, has built Diamondback through disciplined bolt-on acquisitions and operational efficiency from a small Permian pure-play into a basin titan.

About
Baker Hughes Company is a Houston, Texas-based energy technology and oilfield services company — publicly traded on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ: BKR) as an S&P 500 Energy component — providing oilfield services and equipment (OFSE — drilling, completions, production, and intervention technologies for upstream oil and gas operations) and industrial and energy technology (IET — turbomachinery, compressors, industrial equipment, and digital solutions for LNG terminals, industrial plants, and new energy applications) through approximately 58,000 employees in 120+ countries. Baker Hughes was formed in 2017 through the combination of Baker Hughes (founded 1987) with GE Oil & Gas — GE selling its oil and gas equipment and services business to Baker Hughes — creating a combined company that trades under NYSE: BKR while GE initially held a majority stake, which GE divested by 2022. In fiscal year 2024, Baker Hughes reported revenues of approximately $27.8 billion with adjusted EBITDA of approximately $4.4 billion, with the Industrial & Energy Technology segment (LNG compressors, gas compression, power generation turbines for industrial applications) generating 38% of revenue at above-average margins as LNG terminal construction and industrial decarbonization drove demand for Baker Hughes's turbomachinery and electrification equipment. CEO Lorenzo Simonelli has executed Baker Hughes's "energy transition" strategy — positioning Baker Hughes's equipment and services for both conventional oil and gas (OFSE — growing with global upstream capital expenditure) and the new energy economy (IET — LNG for energy transition, hydrogen compression, carbon capture equipment, geothermal drilling) to reduce Baker Hughes's correlation to oil price cycles.
