Comments:
Weak international oil prices have led to a decline in performance, which provides strong support for diversified business. Affected by the decline in international oil prices since 2016, domestic and foreign oil companies have reduced capital expenditure to varying degrees, and their oil field equipment sales have dropped significantly. In addition, the increase in expenses during the company period led to a decline in performance in the reporting period. In view of the obvious seasonal characteristics of the industry, the company's performance in the first half of the year is significantly lower than that in the second half of the year. The company adapts to the oil price level by reducing costs, and constantly diversifies oil field equipment and oil field service business, actively develops oil field environmental protection business and invests in nuclear power equipment market. With the stabilization of international oil prices and the emergence of diversified layout results, the future development prospect is promising.
