Financial results for Q1 2022

Rompetrol Well Services S.A. (PTR) is one of the most important well services companies in Romania. It provides a wide range of services for oil and gas wells in Romania and Eastern Europe (cementing, gravel pack, stimulation, testing, equipment rental, tubular casing, etc.).

 

In the first quarter of this year, the upstream market continued to be volatile, with a low level of new investment and works from our main customers. This evolution was also reflected in volume of operations performed by our customers, decreasing by 12% compared to the level recorded in the similar period of 2021 and by 40% compared to that of than of 1Q 2020.

Moreover, the geopolitical context and the uncertinty facing the region during this period triggered a sharp increase in purchasie prices for goods and services contracted by the Company for current activities, but also a fluctuation in delivery times. All these factors contributed to a negative result in the first quarter.

The Company contuned in 1Q 2022 to manage all its commitments in conditions of financial equilibrium, ensuring all cash availabilities for full and timely payment of commercial commitments, salaries and state budget obligations. The sound liquidity position has allowed the Company to fully finance working capital from own sources.
