(UNAUDITED)
1. General
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Weatherford International Ltd. and all majority-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”) are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2011, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Although we believe the disclosures in these financial statements are adequate to make the interim information presented not misleading, certain information relating to our organization and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period and disclosure of contingent liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible accounts receivable, lower of cost or market of inventories, equity investments, intangible assets and goodwill, property, plant and equipment, income taxes, percentage-of-completion accounting for long-term contracts, self-insurance, pension and post retirement benefit plans and contingent liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Weatherford International Ltd., all majority-owned subsidiaries, all controlled joint ventures and variable interest entities where the Company has determined it is the primary beneficiary. When referring to Weatherford and using phrases such as “we”, “us”, and “our”, the intent is to refer to Weatherford International Ltd. and its subsidiaries as a whole or on a regional basis, depending on the context in which the statements are made.
Investments in affiliates in which we exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
2. Business Combinations
We have acquired businesses we feel are important to our long-term growth strategy. Results of operations for acquisitions are included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income from the date of acquisition. The balances included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to recent acquisitions are based on preliminary information and are subject to change when final asset valuations are obtained and the potential for liabilities has been evaluated. The purchase price is allocated to the net assets acquired based upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we paid cash consideration of $47 million, net of cash acquired, and issued share consideration of approximately 3.1 million shares valued at $59 million for acquisitions.
Our results for the six months ended June 30, 2010 include a loss of $92 million related to the revaluation of contingent consideration issued in connection with the acquisition of the Oilfield Services Division of TNK-BP. This loss was recorded in the Selling, General and Administrative Attributable to Segments line in the Condensed

3. Inventories

$ | 2,939,356 | $ | 2,590,008 | |||||
Work in process and finished goods inventories include the cost of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead.
4. Goodwill
Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on at least an annual basis. Our goodwill impairment test involves a comparison of the fair value of each of our reporting units with its carrying amount. We perform our annual goodwill impairment test as of October 1. Our 2010 impairment test indicated goodwill was not impaired. We will continue to test our goodwill annually as of October 1 unless events occur or circumstances change between annual tests that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2011, were as follows:

Short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt | $ | 1,113,724 | $ | 235,392 | ||||
At June 30, 2011, we maintained a $1.75 billion unsecured, revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement had a scheduled maturity date of October 15, 2013, subject to extension, and could be used for a combination of borrowings, support for our commercial paper program and issuances of letters of credit. The Credit Agreement required that we maintain a debt-to-capitalization ratio of less than 60%. We were in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2011. There were $49 million in outstanding letters of credit under this facility at June 30, 2011.
On July 13, 2011, we amended the Credit Agreement to increase the facility size from $1.75 billion to $2.25 billion and extend the scheduled maturity date to July 13, 2016. The amendment also decreased interest rate margins under the facility. The Credit Agreement, as amended, remains available to support our commercial paper program and issuances of letters of credit. The amended Credit Agreement did not change the required debt-to-capitalization ratio.
We have a $1.5 billion commercial paper program under which we may from time to time issue short-term unsecured notes. The commercial paper program is supported by our revolving credit facility. The weighted average interest rate related to outstanding commercial paper issuances at June 30, 2011 was 1% per annum.
We have short-term borrowings with various domestic and international institutions pursuant to uncommitted facilities. At June 30, 2011, we had $34 million in short-term borrowings under these arrangements with a weighted average interest rate of 9% per annum.
The current portion of long-term debt at June 30, 2011 includes $183 million for our senior notes due November 2011 and $273 million for our senior notes due June 2012.
6. Financial Instruments
Financial Instruments Measured and Recognized at Fair Value
There is a hierarchy that classifies valuation inputs into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based upon our own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. Classification of a financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Other than disclosed below under derivative instruments, we had

Table of Contents
WEATHERFORD INTERNATIONAL LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
no assets or liabilities measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments
Our other financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. With the exception of long-term debt, the carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair value due primarily to their short-term nature.
The fair value of outstanding debt fluctuates with changes in applicable interest rates. Fair value will exceed carrying value when the current market interest rate is lower than the interest rate at which the debt was originally issued. The fair value of a company’s debt is a measure of its current value under present market conditions. It does not impact the financial statements under current accounting rules. The fair value of our long-term debt was established based on quoted market prices.
The fair value and carrying value of our long-term debt and current portion of long-term debt is as follows:
June 30, | December 31, | |||||||
2011 | 2010 | |||||||
(In thousands) | ||||||||
Fair value | $ | 7,503,486 | $ | 7,329,299 | ||||
Carrying value | 6,751,162 | 6,747,389 |
7. Derivative Instruments
We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency and changes in interest rates. From time to time, we may enter into derivative financial instrument transactions to manage or reduce our market risk. We manage our debt portfolio to achieve an overall desired position of fixed and floating rates and we may employ interest rate swaps as a tool to achieve that goal. The major risks from interest rate derivatives include changes in the interest rates affecting the fair value of such instruments, potential increases in interest expense due to market increases in floating interest rates and the creditworthiness of the counterparties in such transactions. In light of events in the global credit markets and the potential impact of these events on the liquidity of the banking industry, we continue to monitor the creditworthiness of our counterparties, which are multinational commercial banks.
The fair values of all our outstanding derivative instruments are determined using a model with Level 2 inputs including quoted market prices in active markets for contracts with similar terms and maturity dates.
Interest Rate Swaps
We may use interest rate swaps to help mitigate exposures related to interest rate movements. Amounts paid or received upon termination of interest rate swaps accounted for as fair value hedges represent the fair value of the agreements at the time of termination and are recorded as an adjustment to the carrying value of the related debt. These amounts are amortized as a reduction (in the case of gains) or as an increase (in the case of losses) to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt. As of June 30, 2011, we had net unamortized gains of $50 million associated with interest rate swap terminations.
Cash Flow Hedges
In 2008, we entered into interest rate derivative instruments to hedge projected exposures to interest rates in anticipation of a debt offering. Those hedges were terminated at the time of the issuance of the debt, and the loss on these hedges is being amortized from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt. As of June 30, 2011, we had net unamortized losses of $12 million associated with our cash flow hedge terminations.

Other Derivative Instruments
As of June 30, 2011, we had foreign currency forward contracts with notional amounts aggregating to $687 million, which were entered into to hedge exposure to currency fluctuations in various foreign currencies. The total estimated fair value of these contracts at June 30, 2011, resulted in a net liability of approximately $4 million. These derivative instruments were not designated as hedges and the changes in fair value of the contracts are recorded each period in Other, Net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
We have cross-currency swaps between the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar to hedge certain exposures to the Canadian dollar. At June 30, 2011, we had notional amounts outstanding of $215 million. The total estimated fair value of these contracts at June 30, 2011, resulted in a liability of $40 million. These derivative instruments were not designated as hedges and the changes in fair value of the contracts are recorded each period in Other, Net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

8. Income Taxes
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we had a tax provision of $46 million and $65 million on income before taxes of $161 million and $242 million, respectively. Our tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2011 includes discrete tax benefits of $15 million which lowered our effective tax rate for the period to 28.6%. Our tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2011 includes discrete tax benefits of $29 million which lowered our year-to-date effective tax rate to 27.0%.
For the three months ended June 30, 2010, we had a tax provision of $40 million on a pretax loss of $5 million that includes an $82 million loss on the fair value adjustment to the put option issued in connection with the OFS acquisition for which no tax benefit has been recorded. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, we had a tax provision of $43 million on a pretax loss of $66 million that includes the loss related to the put option issued in connection with the OFS acquisition and curtailment expense on our Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) for which no related tax benefit was recorded. Our tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2010 also includes minimum tax in Mexico and the tax impact of changes in our geographic earnings mix, both of which are partially offset by a tax benefit related to the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar.

At December 31, 2010, we had outstanding warrants to purchase up to 12.9 million of our shares at a price of $15.00 per share. On March 4, 2011, 4.3 million of these warrants were exercised through net share settlement resulting in the issuance of 1.7 million shares. At June 30, 2011, 8.6 million of our warrants remain outstanding and are exercisable until February 28, 2012. These warrants are subject to adjustment for changes in our capital structure or the issuance of dividends. Future settlements may occur through physical delivery, net share settlement, net cash settlement or a combination of those methods. The net cash settlement option is available at our sole discretion.

10. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share for all periods presented equals net income divided by the weighted average number of our shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of our shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of our stock options, restricted shares, performance units and our outstanding warrants. Our diluted earnings per share calculation excludes three million and two million potential shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and three million potential shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, due to their anti-dilutive effect. Our diluted earnings per share calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 also excludes five million and six million potential shares, respectively, that would have been included if we had net income for those periods, but are excluded as we had a net loss and their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
The following reconciles basic and diluted weighted average of shares outstanding:

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we issued approximately one million performance units, which will vest assuming continued employment and assuming the Company meets certain market-based performance goals. The performance units have a weighted average grant date fair value of $30.49 per share based on the Monte Carlo simulation method. As of June 30, 2011, there was $23 million of unrecognized compensation related to our performance units. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of two years.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we also granted three million restricted share awards at a weighted average grant date fair value of $24.12 per share. As of June 30, 2011, there was $151 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to all of our unvested restricted share grants. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of less than two years.

Our SERP was amended effective March 31, 2010 to freeze the benefits under the plan. This resulted in the net curtailment loss shown above.
We previously disclosed in our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, that we expected to contribute less than $1 million in the U.S. and approximately $8 million internationally to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans during 2011. As of June 30, 2011, we have contributed approximately $7 million to these plans and currently anticipate total annual contributions to approximate $11 million.

In early 2011, our operations in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and to a lesser extent Yemen and Bahrain were disrupted by political revolutions and uprisings in these countries. Civil war in Libya and lesser political disturbances elsewhere in the Middle East and North Africa are ongoing. We do not expect our operations in Libya to resume in 2011. At June 30, 2011, we had in Libya inventory, property, plant and equipment (net) with a carrying value of approximately $142 million, as well as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets totaling approximately $80 million, including approximately $57 million of accounts receivable that currently are subject to sanctions recently imposed by western governments. In Libya, we determined the safest course of action was to evacuate most of our personnel. In cases where we must evacuate personnel, it may be difficult, if not impossible, for us to safeguard and recover our operating assets, and our ability to do so will depend on the local turn of events. In these areas we also may not be able to perform the work we are contracted to perform, which could lead to forfeiture of performance bonds. We currently have outstanding approximately $18 million of performance bonds related to contracts in Libya. Based on information available to us and our current assessment of the situation in Libya, we believe that we will recover our assets there, and we have not impaired these assets.
14. Disputes, Litigation and Contingencies
U.S. Government and Internal Investigations
We are currently involved in government and internal investigations involving various areas of our operations.
Until 2003, we participated in the United Nations oil-for-food program governing sales of goods and services into Iraq. The U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and the SEC have undertaken investigations of our participation in the oil-for-food program and have subpoenaed certain documents in connection with these investigations. We have cooperated fully with these investigations. We have retained legal counsel, reporting to our audit committee, to investigate this matter. We have begun negotiations with the government agencies to resolve these matters, but we cannot yet anticipate the timing, outcome or possible impact of the ultimate resolution of the investigations, financial or otherwise.
The U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry & Security, Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), DOJ and SEC have undertaken investigations of allegations of improper sales of products and services by the Company and its subsidiaries in certain sanctioned countries. We have cooperated fully with this investigation. We have retained legal counsel, reporting to our audit committee, to investigate these matters and to cooperate fully with these agencies. We have begun negotiations with the government agencies to resolve these matters, but we cannot yet anticipate the timing, outcome or possible impact of the ultimate resolution of the investigation, financial or otherwise.

In light of this investigation, the U.S. and foreign policy environment and the inherent uncertainties surrounding these countries, we decided in September 2007 to direct our foreign subsidiaries to discontinue doing business in countries that are subject to comprehensive U.S. economic and trade sanctions, specifically Cuba, Iran, and Sudan, as well as Syria. Effective September 2007, we ceased entering into any new contracts in these countries and began an orderly discontinuation and winding down of our existing business in these sanctioned countries. Effective March 31, 2008, we substantially completed our winding down of business in these countries. We can complete the withdrawal process only pursuant to licenses issued by OFAC. Our remaining activities in Iran, Sudan and Syria include ongoing withdrawal activities such as attempts to collect accounts receivable, attempts to settle tax liabilities or legal claims and attempts to recover or liquidate assets, including equipment and funds. Certain of our subsidiaries continue to conduct business in countries such as Myanmar that are subject to more limited U.S. trading sanctions.
The DOJ and SEC are investigating our compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) and other laws worldwide. We have retained legal counsel, reporting to our audit committee, to investigate these matters and to cooperate fully with the DOJ and SEC. As part of our investigations, we have uncovered potential violations of U.S. law in connection with activities in West Africa. We have begun negotiations with the government agencies to resolve these matters, but we cannot yet anticipate the timing, outcome or possible impact of the ultimate resolution of the investigations, financial or otherwise.
The DOJ, SEC and other agencies and authorities have a broad range of civil and criminal penalties they may seek to impose against corporations and individuals for violations of trade sanctions laws, the FCPA and other federal statutes including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, disgorgement, fines, penalties and modifications to business practices and compliance programs. In recent years, these agencies and authorities have entered into agreements with, and obtained a range of penalties against, several public corporations and individuals in similar investigations, under which civil and criminal penalties were imposed, including in some cases fines and other penalties and sanctions in the tens and hundreds of millions of dollars. These agencies are seeking to impose penalties against us for past conduct, but the ultimate amount of any penalties we may pay currently cannot be reasonably estimated. Under trade sanctions laws, the DOJ may also seek to impose modifications to business practices, including immediate cessation of all business activities in specific countries or other limitations that decrease our business, and modifications to compliance programs, which may increase compliance costs. Any injunctive relief, disgorgement, fines, penalties, sanctions or imposed modifications to business practices resulting from these investigations could adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, our historical activities in sanctioned countries, such as Sudan and Iran, could result in certain investors, such as government sponsored pension funds, divesting or not investing in our registered shares. Based on available information, we cannot predict what, if any, actions the DOJ, SEC or other authorities will take in our situation or the effect any such actions will have on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. To the extent we violated trade sanctions laws, the FCPA, or other laws or regulations, fines and other penalties may be imposed. Because these matters are now pending before the indicated agencies, there can be no assurance that actual fines or penalties, if any, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.
Through June 30, 2011, we have incurred $49 million for costs in connection with our exit from sanctioned countries and incurred $117 million for legal, professional and related fees in connection with complying with and conducting these on-going investigations.
In addition, the SEC is investigating the circumstances surrounding the material weakness in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting for income taxes that was disclosed on Forms 12b-25 and 8-K on March 1, 2011 and the related restatement of historical financial statements. We are cooperating with the investigation.
Macondo Litigation
On April 20, 2010, the Deepwater Horizon rig operating under contract with BP at the Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico exploded and sank, resulting in 11 deaths, several injuries and significant damages to property and the environment.

We provided the following services and products to BP on the Macondo well: (1) connected and tightened four intermediate casing strings and one tapered production string (“long string”); (2) furnished a liner hanger on one casing string; (3) furnished centralizers, most of which were not used in the well, and (4) provided float equipment on the long string. The float equipment consisted of a reamer shoe, a float collar and wiper plugs. The float collar is designed to control backflow or ingress of the cement through the shoe track while the cement hardens. At the time of the explosion, we had two employees on the Deepwater Horizon; they sustained minor injuries.
As a result of the explosion, approximately 400 lawsuits were filed, mainly for personal injuries, wrongful death and pollution damage. We currently are named, along with BP and other defendants, in several dozen of these lawsuits. The United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation issued an order centralizing most of these cases in the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. The pollution damage complaints generally refer to the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (“OPA”) and allege, among other things, negligence and gross negligence by us and other defendants. They allege that we and the other defendants are responsible for property damage, trespass, nuisance and economic loss as a result of environmental pollution and generally seek awards of unspecified economic, compensatory, and punitive damages, as well as injunctive relief. Additional lawsuits may be filed in the future relating to the Macondo incident.
We were not designated as a “Responsible Party,” as that term is defined by OPA. Therefore, we were not charged with responsibility for cleaning up the oil or handling any claims. The Responsible Party may make a claim for contribution against any other party it alleges contributed to the oil spill. Since we have not been named a Responsible Party, we have sought to be dismissed from any and all OPA-related claims.
In June 2011, we reached an agreement with BP wherein BP agreed to indemnify us for the vast majority of our potential exposure related to the Macondo incident, including OPA claims. Pursuant to this agreement, we agreed to pay BP $75 million, an amount covered by our insurance policies.
We might be held liable in one or more of the civil actions brought as a result of the aforementioned deaths, personal injuries, property and/or environmental damage. The cause of the Macondo incident remains under investigation and has yet to be determined. We believe our exposure, to the extent it is not covered by the agreement with BP, is within the limits of our remaining insurance coverage. We have a self-insured retention of $2 million. Above that amount, we have aggregate liability insurance coverage with limits of $303 million. With regard to the Macondo incident, $228 million of that coverage remains extant following the agreement with BP. However, given the complexity of the litigation surrounding these matters, it is possible that we could be adjudged to be liable in an amount in excess of our policy limits.
The litigation surrounding these matters is complex and likely to continue for some time and the damages claimed are significant. We cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these claims.
We are cooperating fully with the investigations of the accident initiated by various agencies of the U.S. government and, to the extent requested, have responded to several subpoenas, information and document requests and requests for testimony of employees.
Shareholder Litigation
In June and July 2010, shareholders filed suit in Weatherford’s name against those directors in place before June 2010 and certain current and former members of management relating to the U.S. government and internal investigations disclosed above and in our SEC filings since 2007. Separately, shareholders have also filed suit relating to the material weakness in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting for income taxes that was disclosed on Forms 12b-25 and 8-K on March 1, 2011 and the related restatement of historical financial statements. These suits name the Company as well as current and former members of management as well as our directors. We will investigate these claims appropriately. We cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these claims.

Other Disputes
Our former Senior Vice President and General Counsel (the “Executive”) left the Company in June 2009. The Executive had employment agreements with us that terminated on his departure. There is currently a dispute between the Executive and us as to the amount of compensation we are obligated to pay under these employment agreements based on the Executive’s separation. This dispute has not resulted in a lawsuit being filed. It is our belief that an unfavorable outcome regarding this dispute is not probable, and as such, we have not accrued for $9 million of the Executive’s claimed severance and other benefits.
Additionally, we are aware of various disputes and potential claims and are a party in various litigation involving claims against us, some of which are covered by insurance. For claims, disputes and pending litigation in which we believe a negative outcome is probable and a loss can be reasonably estimated, we have recorded a liability for the expected loss. These liabilities are immaterial to our financial condition and results of operations. In addition we have certain claims, disputes and pending litigation in which we do not believe a negative outcome is probable. If one or more negative outcomes were to occur, the impact to our financial condition could be as high as $180 million.
15. New Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2011, we adopted an update to existing guidance on revenue recognition for arrangements with multiple deliverables. This update allows companies to allocate consideration for qualified separate deliverables using estimated selling price for both delivered and undelivered items when vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence is unavailable. It also requires additional disclosures on the nature of multiple element arrangements, the types of deliverables under the arrangements, the general timing of their delivery and significant factors and estimates used to determine estimated selling prices. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or existing revenue recognition policies.
In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements between U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial Reporting Standards. This new guidance amends current fair value measurement and disclosure guidance to include increased transparency around valuation inputs and investment categorization. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We do not believe our adoption of the new guidance will have an impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In June 2011, the FASB issued new guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. The new guidance allows an entity to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate, but consecutive statements. The new guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes of shareholders’ equity. While the new guidance changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current accounting guidance. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We do not believe our adoption of the new guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, apart from the changes in presentation.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) begins with an executive level overview, which provides a general description of our company today, a synopsis of industry market trends, insight into management’s perspective of the opportunities and challenges we face and our outlook for the remainder of 2011. Next, we analyze the results of our operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the trends in our overall business. Then we review our liquidity and capital resources. We conclude with a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates and a summary of recently issued accounting pronouncements. When using phrases such as “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” the intent is to refer to Weatherford International Ltd.
Overview
General
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements included with this report and our financial statements and related MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended. Our discussion and analysis includes various forward-looking statements about our markets, the demand for our products and services and our future results. These statements are based on certain assumptions we consider reasonable. For information about these assumptions, you should refer to the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements.”
Our principal business is to provide equipment and services to the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry both on land and offshore, including our ten product and service lines, as described in our Form 10-K. We may sell our products and services separately or may bundle them together to provide integrated solutions, up to and including integrated well construction where we are responsible for the entire process of drilling, constructing and completing a well. Our customers include both exploration and production companies and other oilfield service companies. Depending on the service line, customer and location, our contracts vary in their terms, provisions and indemnities. We earn revenues under our contracts when products and services are delivered. Typically, we provide products and services at a well site where our personnel and equipment may be located together with personnel and equipment of our customer and third parties, such as other service providers.
Industry Trends
Changes in the current price and expected future prices of oil and natural gas influence the level of energy industry spending. Changes in expenditures result in an increased or decreased demand for our products and services. Rig count is an indicator of the level of spending for the exploration for and production of oil and natural gas reserves.
The following chart sets forth certain statistics that reflect historical market conditions:

Oil prices increased during the first six months of 2011, ranging from a low of $84.32 per barrel in mid-February to a high of $113.93 per barrel at the end of April. Natural gas prices decreased during the first six months of 2011 and ranged from a high of $4.87 MM/BTU in early June to a low of $3.78 MM/BTU at the beginning of March. Factors influencing oil and natural gas prices during the period include hydrocarbon inventory levels, realized and expected economic growth, realized and expected levels of hydrocarbon demand, levels of spare

production capacity within the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”), weather and geopolitical uncertainty.
Outlook
We believe the long-term outlook for our businesses is favorable. As decline rates accelerate and reservoir productivity complexities increase, our clients will face growing challenges securing desired rates of production growth. These challenges increase our customers’ requirements for technologies that improve productivity and efficiency and increase demand for our products and services. These phenomena provide us with a positive outlook over the longer term.
We anticipate our 2011 revenues will increase approximately 25% from 2010. The year-on-year growth should be stronger in North America than in the international markets, but the international markets will have a strong second half finish to the year.
Our 2011 increase in North America is expected to be primarily driven by continued strengthening in shale activity in the U.S., an increase in Canadian activity after years of lagging the U.S. and improved volume and pricing of a number of product lines. We are anticipating gradually higher margins in North America for the remainder of the year.
For our international segments we expect low double-digit growth in 2011. We expect that Latin America growth will be primarily driven by Colombia, Brazil and Argentina. Mexico should be down year-on-year, but we anticipate the second half of 2011 will be stronger than the second half of 2010. In the Eastern Hemisphere, despite political and weather related disruptions, Middle East/North Africa/Asia should still experience growth in 2011, secured by strength in our Asia-Pacific operation and progression in Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, Turkmenistan and India and the beginning of a strong recovery in Saudi Arabia. We do not expect the return of our business in Libya this year. Finally, we expect our operations in the North Sea and Russia to show growth in the second half of 2011. Overall, we anticipate international margins to improve in the second half of 2011.
The level of improvement in our businesses in 2011 will continue to depend heavily on volume increases and our ability to further penetrate existing markets with our younger technologies as well as to successfully introduce these technologies to new markets. In addition, our ability to grow our business aggressively will rely on our demonstration of a high level of operational efficacy for our clients including the efficiency of mobilization related to planned startups. The recruitment, training and retention of personnel will also be a critical factor in growing our businesses. The continued and increasing strength of the industry, including client spending, will be highly dependent on many external factors, such as world economic and political conditions, member-country quota compliance within OPEC and weather conditions, including the factors described under “—Forward-Looking Statements.”

Consolidated revenues increased $615 million, or 25%, in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the second quarter of 2010. This increase outpaced the 14% increase in average rig count over the comparable period. Our revenues in North America increased $427 million, or 46%, in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the same quarter of the prior year. International revenues increased $188 million, or 12%, in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the second quarter of 2010. Our stimulation and chemicals, artificial lift systems, and drilling services product lines were the strongest contributors to the increase over the year-ago period.
For the first six months of 2011, consolidated revenues increased $1,140 million, or 24%, as compared to the first six months of 2010. Similar to what was experienced in the second quarter of 2011, the increase in revenues during the first six months of 2011 compared to the first six months of 2010 was mostly driven by North America. International revenue increased $241 million, or 8%, as compared to the first six months of 2010.
Operating Income
Consolidated operating income increased $192 million, or 183%, in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the second quarter of 2010. Our operating segments contributed $111 million of incremental operating income during the current quarter as compared to the same quarter of the prior year. Severance, exit and other adjustments during the second quarter of 2011 decreased $9 million as compared to the second quarter of 2010. In addition, the second quarter of 2010 included an $82 million loss related to the revaluation of contingent consideration associated with our acquisition of the Oilfield Services Division of TNK-BP (“OFS”). The contingent consideration terms were settled in the fourth quarter of 2010. These incremental gains were partially offset by an increase in corporate and research and development expenditures of $9 million. The increase in corporate expenses was primarily attributable to higher employee compensation costs and professional fees.
During the first six months of 2011, consolidated operating income increased $296 million, or 139%, as compared to the first six months of 2010. Our operating segments contributed $207 million of this increase. Additionally, the first six months of 2010 included a $93 million loss related to the revaluation of contingent consideration associated with our acquisition of OFS.
The six months ended June 30, 2011 includes $27 million for severance and exit costs, $4 million for legal, professional and related fees incurred in connection with our on-going investigations and $9 million in connection with the termination of a corporate consulting contract.

Table of Contents
Severance, exit and other adjustments during the six months ended June 30, 2010 include (i) a $38 million charge related to our Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”), which was frozen on March 31, 2010, (ii) $36 million for severance and facility closure costs and (iii) $2 million for legal, professional and related fees incurred in connection with our on-going investigations. These charges were offset by a $5 million benefit related to the reversal of prior cost accruals for our exit from sanctioned countries.
Devaluation of Venezuelan Bolivar
In January 2010, the Venezuelan government announced its intention to devalue its currency and move to a two tier exchange structure. The official exchange moved from 2.15 to 2.60 for essential goods and 4.30 for non-essential goods and services. In connection with this devaluation, we incurred a charge of $64 million in the first quarter of 2010 for the remeasurement of our net monetary assets denominated in Venezuelan bolivars at the date of the devaluation.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net increased $18 million, or 19%, in the second quarter of 2011 and $35 million, or 18% for the first six months of 2011 as compared to the same periods of the prior year. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of replacing our short term debt with higher-rate senior notes through the debt offering and bond tender completed in the second half of 2010.
Income Taxes
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we had a tax provision of $46 million and $65 million on income before taxes of $161 million and $242 million, respectively. Our tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2011 includes discrete tax benefits of $15 million which lowered our effective tax rate for the period to 28.6%. Our tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2011 includes discrete tax benefits of $29 million which lowered our year-to-date effective tax rate to 27.0%.
For the three months ended June 30, 2010, we had a tax provision of $40 million on a pretax loss of $5 million that includes an $82 million loss on the fair value adjustment to the put option issued in connection with the OFS acquisition for which no tax benefit has been recorded. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, we had a tax provision of $43 million on a pretax loss of $66 million that includes the loss related to the put option issued in connection with the OFS acquisition and curtailment expense on our SERP for which no related tax benefit was recorded. Our tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2010 also includes minimum tax in Mexico and the tax impact of changes in our geographic earnings mix, both of which are partially offset by a tax benefit related to the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar.
Segment Results
North America
North American revenues increased $427 million, or 46%, in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the second quarter of 2010. This increase outpaced the 20% increase in the average North American rig count over the comparable period. Revenues increased $898 million, or 50%, during the first six months of 2011 as compared to the same period of the prior year, again outpacing the 23% increase in the average North American rig count over the comparable period. Revenues from our stimulation and chemicals, artificial lift systems and drilling product lines were the strongest contributors to the year-over-year increase.

Table of Contents
Operating income increased $117 million, or 92%, in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the second quarter of the prior year. For the first half of 2011, operating income increased $292 million, or 124%, compared to the same period of the prior year. Operating margins were 18% in the second quarter of 2011 and 14% in the second quarter of 2010. Operating margins improved to 19% for the first six months of 2011 compared to 13% for the first six months of 2010. Increases in volume and pricing contributed to the improved margins over the comparable periods of the prior year.
Middle East/North Africa/Asia
Middle East/North Africa/Asia revenues increased $15 million, or 2%, in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the second quarter of 2010. Our integrated drilling and artificial lift systems product lines were the strongest contributors to the increase in revenue. Revenues increased $28 million, or 2%, during the first six months of 2011 as compared to the first six months of 2010.
Operating income decreased $40 million, or 54%, during the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter of the prior year and decreased $105 million, or 70%, during the first six months of 2011 compared to the first six months of 2010. Operating margins were 6% in the second quarter of 2011 and 12% in the second quarter of 2010. On a year-to-date basis, operating margins were 4% for the first six months of 2011 as compared to 13% for the first six months of 2010. Political disruptions in the Middle East and North Africa and challenging weather events in Australia and China were large drivers of the year-over-year decrease.
Europe/West Africa/FSU
Revenues in our Europe/West Africa/FSU segment increased $86 million, or 17%, in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter of the prior year. On a year-to-date basis, revenues increased $143 million, or 15%, compared to the first six months of 2010. Our stimulation and chemicals, drilling services and artificial lift systems product lines were the strongest contributors to the increase in the current quarter as compared to the same period of the prior year.
Operating income increased $25 million, or 37%, in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter of the prior year and increased $16 million, or 14%, during the first six months of 2011 compared to the first six months of 2010. Operating margins were 16% in the second quarter of 2011 and 13% in the second quarter of 2010. Operating margins were 12% for the first six months of 2011 and 2010.
Latin America
Revenues in our Latin America segment increased $87 million, or 21%, in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to the same quarter of the prior year. Revenues increased $70 million, or 8%, during the first six months of 2011 compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase in revenue was mostly due to improved demand in our drilling services and artificial lift systems product lines.
Operating income increased $9 million, or 22%, in the second quarter of 2011 over the comparable period of the prior year and increased $4 million, or 6%, during the first six months of 2011 as compared to the first six months of 2010. Operating margins remained flat at 10% for the second quarter of 2011 and 2010 and 8% for the year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
Our sources of liquidity include current cash and cash equivalent balances, cash generated from operations and committed availabilities under bank lines of credit. We also historically have accessed banks for short-term loans from uncommitted borrowing arrangements and the capital markets with debt, equity and convertible bond offerings and may from time to time dispose of businesses or capital assets that are no longer core to our long-term growth strategy.

Committed Borrowing Facilities
Prior to July 2011, we maintained a $1.75 billion unsecured, revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement had a scheduled maturity date of October 15, 2013, subject to extension, and could be used for a combination of borrowings, support for our commercial paper program and issuances of letters of credit. The Credit Agreement required that we maintain a debt-to-capitalization ratio of less than 60%. We were in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2011. There were $49 million in outstanding letters of credit under this facility at June 30, 2011.
The following is a recap of our availability under our committed borrowing facility at June 30, 2011 (in millions):
Facilities | $ | 1,750 | ||
Less: | ||||
Amount drawn | — | |||
Commercial paper | 585 | |||
Letters of credit | 49 | |||
Availability | $ | 1,116 | ||
On July 13, 2011, we amended the Credit Agreement to increase the facility size from $1.75 billion to $2.25 billion and extend the scheduled maturity date to July 13, 2016. The amendment also decreased interest rate margins under the facility. The Credit Agreement, as amended, remains available to support our commercial paper program and issuances of letters of credit. Similarly, the Credit Agreement did not change the required debt-to-capitalization ratio.
Commercial Paper
We have a $1.5 billion commercial paper program under which we may from time to time issue short-term unsecured notes. The commercial paper program is supported by our revolving credit facility.
Cash Requirements
During 2011, we anticipate our cash requirements will include interest payments on our outstanding debt, the payment of $183 million of senior notes due in the fourth quarter of 2011, working capital needs, capital expenditures and may include opportunistic business acquisitions. We anticipate funding these requirements from cash generated from operations, availability under our committed borrowing facility, the issuance of commercial paper and, if appropriate, the proceeds of disposals of non-core businesses.
Capital expenditures for 2011 are projected to be approximately $1.6 billion. The expenditures are expected to be used primarily to support anticipated near-term growth. Capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $743 million.
Our senior notes due June 2012 in the amount of $273 million were reclassified from long-term debt to current maturities of long-term debt at June 30, 2011.
Derivative Instruments
Interest Rate Swaps
We may use interest rate swaps to help mitigate exposures related to interest rate movements. Amounts paid or received upon termination of interest rate swaps accounted for as fair value hedges represent the fair value of the agreements at the time of termination and are recorded as an adjustment to the carrying value of the related debt. These amounts are amortized as a reduction (in the case of gains) or as an increase (in the case of losses) to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt. As of June 30, 2011, we had net unamortized gains of $50 million associated with interest rate swap terminations.
33
Table of Contents
Cash Flow Hedges
In 2008, we entered into interest rate derivative instruments to hedge projected exposures to interest rates in anticipation of a debt offering. Those hedges were terminated at the time of the issuance of the debt, and the loss on these hedges is being amortized from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt. As of June 30, 2011, we had net unamortized losses of $12 million associated with our cash flow hedge terminations.
Other Derivative Instruments
As of June 30, 2011, we had foreign currency forward contracts with notional amounts aggregating to $687 million, which were entered into to hedge exposure to currency fluctuations in various foreign currencies. The total estimated fair value of these contracts at June 30, 2011, resulted in a net liability of approximately $4 million. These derivative instruments were not designated as hedges and the changes in fair value of the contracts are recorded each period in Other, Net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
We have cross-currency swaps between the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar to hedge certain exposures to the Canadian dollar. At June 30, 2011, we had notional amounts outstanding of $215 million. The total estimated fair value of these contracts at June 30, 2011, resulted in a liability of $40 million. These derivative instruments were not designated as hedges and the changes in fair value of the contracts are recorded each period in Other, Net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

These obligations could be called by the beneficiaries should we breach certain contractual or performance obligations. If the beneficiaries were to call the letters of credit under our committed facilities, our available liquidity would be reduced by the amount called.
New Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements. We prepare these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
34
Table of Contents
expenses during the periods presented. We base our estimates on historical experience, available information and various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no material changes or developments in our evaluation of the accounting estimates and the underlying assumptions or methodologies that we believe to be Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates as disclosed in our Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Exposures
An investment in our registered shares involves various risks. When considering an investment in our Company, you should consider carefully all of the risk factors described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, under the heading “Item 1A.Risk Factors”as well as the information below and other information included and incorporated by reference in this report.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report, as well as other filings made by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and our releases issued to the public contain various statements relating to future results, including certain projections and business trends. We believe these statements constitute “Forward-Looking Statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.
From time to time, we update the various factors we consider in making our forward-looking statements and the assumptions we use in those statements. However, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this report. The following sets forth the various assumptions we use in our forward-looking statements, as well as risks and uncertainties relating to those statements. Certain of the risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to be materially different from projected results contained in forward-looking statements in this report and in our other disclosures. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:
• | Global political, economic and market conditions could affect projected results.Our operating results and the forward-looking information we provide are based on our current assumptions about oil and natural gas supply and demand, oil and natural gas prices, rig count and other market trends. Our assumptions on these matters are in turn based on currently available information, which is subject to change. The oil and natural gas industry is extremely volatile and subject to change based on political and economic factors outside our control. Worldwide drilling activity, as measured by average worldwide rig counts, increased in each year from 2002 to 2008. However, activity began declining in the fourth quarter of 2008, particularly in North America. The weakened global economic climate resulted in lower demand and lower prices for oil and natural gas, which reduced drilling and production activity, which in turn resulted in lower than expected revenues and income in 2009 and 2010 and may affect our future revenues and income. Worldwide drilling activity and global demand for oil and natural gas may also be affected by changes in governmental policies and debt loads, laws and regulations related to environmental or energy security matters, including those addressing alternative energy sources and the risks of global climate change. For 2011, worldwide demand may be significantly weaker than we have assumed. | ||
• | We may be unable to recognize our expected revenues from current and future contracts. Our customers, many of whom are national oil companies, often have significant bargaining leverage over us and may elect to cancel or revoke contracts, not renew contracts, modify the scope of contracts or delay contracts, in some cases preventing us from realizing expected revenues and/or profits. In 2011, western governments imposed trading sanctions on Libya that require approvals to collect outstanding accounts receivable from government-affiliated customers. This may slow, and could ultimately prevent, collection of certain accounts receivable generated in Libya before the sanctions were imposed. Our projections assume that our customers will honor the contracts we have been awarded and that those contracts and the business that we believe is otherwise substantially firm will result in anticipated revenues in the periods for which they are scheduled. |

• | Currency fluctuations could have a material adverse financial impact on our business.A material change in currency rates in our markets, such as the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar experienced during the first quarter of 2010, could affect our future results as well as affect the carrying values of our assets. World currencies have been subject to much volatility. In addition, due to the volatility we may be unable to enter into foreign currency contracts at a reasonable cost. As we are not able to predict changes in currency valuations, our forward-looking statements assume no material impact from future changes in currency exchange rates. | ||
• | Our ability to manage our workforce could affect our projected results.In a climate of decreasing demand, we are faced with managing our workforce levels to control costs without impairing our ability to provide service to our customers. Conversely, in a climate of increasing demand, we are faced with the challenge of recruiting and retaining a skilled workforce at a reasonable cost. Our forward-looking statements assume we will be able to do so. | ||
• | Increases in the prices and availability of our raw materials could affect our results of operations.We use large amounts of raw materials for manufacturing our products and some of our fixed assets. The price of these raw materials has a significant impact on our cost of producing products for sale or producing fixed assets used in our business. We have assumed that the prices of our raw materials will remain within a manageable range and will be readily available. If we are unable to obtain necessary raw materials or if we are unable to minimize the impact of increased raw material costs or to realize the benefit of cost decreases in a timely fashion through our supply chain initiatives or pricing, our margins and results of operations could be adversely affected. | ||
• | Our ability to manage our supply chain and business processes could affect our projected results.We have undertaken efforts to improve our supply chain, invoicing and collection processes and procedures. These undertakings include costs, which we expect will result in long-term benefits for our business processes. Our forward-looking statements assume we will realize the benefits of these efforts. | ||
• | Our long-term growth depends upon technological innovation and commercialization.Our ability to deliver our long-term growth strategy depends in part on the commercialization of new technology. A central aspect of our growth strategy is to improve our products and services through innovation, to obtain technologically advanced products through internal research and development and/or acquisitions, to protect proprietary technology from unauthorized use and to expand the markets for new technology by leveraging our worldwide infrastructure. The key to our success will be our ability to commercialize the technology that we have acquired and demonstrate the enhanced value our technology brings to our customers’ operations. Our major technological advances include, but are not limited to, those related to controlled pressure drilling and testing systems, expandable solid tubulars, expandable sand screens and intelligent well completion. Our forward-looking statements have assumed successful commercialization of, and above-average growth from, these new products and services, as well as legal protection of our intellectual property rights. | ||
• | Nonrealization of expected benefits from our redomestication could affect our projected results.We operate through our various subsidiaries in numerous countries throughout the world including the United States. During the first quarter of 2009, we completed a transaction in which our former parent Bermuda company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Weatherford International Ltd., a Swiss joint-stock corporation, and holders of common shares of the Bermuda company received one registered share of the Swiss company in exchange for each common share that they held. Consequently, we are or may become subject to changes in tax laws, treaties or regulations or the interpretation or enforcement thereof in the U.S., Bermuda, Switzerland or any other jurisdictions in which we or any of our subsidiaries operate or are resident. Our income tax expense is based upon our interpretation of the tax laws in effect in various countries at the time that the expense was incurred. If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authorities do not agree with our assessment of the effects of such laws, treaties and regulations, this could have a material adverse effect on us, including the imposition of a higher effective tax rate on our worldwide earnings or a reclassification of the tax impact of our significant corporate restructuring transactions. In addition, our realization of expected tax benefits is based upon the assumption that we take successful planning steps and that we maintain and execute adequate processes to support our planning activities. If we fail to do so, we may not achieve the expected benefits. |

• | Nonrealization of expected benefits from our acquisitions or business dispositions could affect our projected results.We expect to gain certain business, financial and strategic advantages as a result of business acquisitions we undertake, including synergies and operating efficiencies. Our forward-looking statements assume that we will successfully integrate our business acquisitions and realize the benefits of those acquisitions. Further, we may from time to time undertake to dispose of businesses or capital assets that are no longer core to our long-term growth strategy and the disposition of which may improve our capital structure. Our forward-looking statements assume that if we decide to dispose of a business or asset we will find a buyer willing to pay a price we deem favorable to Weatherford and that we will successfully dispose of the business or asset. Our inability to complete dispositions timely and at attractive prices may impair our ability to improve our capital structure as rapidly as our forward-looking statements may indicate. | |
• | The downturn in our industry could affect the carrying value of our goodwill.As of June 30, 2011, we had approximately $4.3 billion of goodwill. Our estimates of the value of our goodwill could be reduced in the future as a result of various factors, including market factors, some of which are beyond our control. Our forward-looking statements do not assume any future goodwill impairment. Any reduction in the fair value of our businesses may result in an impairment charge and therefore adversely affect our results. | |
• | Adverse weather conditions in certain regions could adversely affect our operations. From time to time, hurricanes and severe weather impact our operations in the Gulf of Mexico. These hurricanes and associated hurricane threats reduce the number of days on which we and our customers operate which results in lower revenues than we otherwise would have achieved. Our Canadian operations, particularly in the second quarter of each year, may vary greatly depending on the timing of “break-up”, or the spring thaw, which annually results in a period in which conditions are not conducive to operations. Similarly, unfavorable weather in Russia, Caspian, China, Mexico, Australia and in the North Sea, as well as exceedingly cold winters in other areas of the world, could reduce our operations and revenues from these areas during the relevant period. Our forward-looking statements assume weather patterns in our primary areas of operations will be conducive to our operations. | |
• | U.S. Government and internal investigations could affect our results of operations.We are currently involved in government and internal investigations involving various of our operations. We have begun negotiations with the government agencies to resolve these matters, but we cannot yet anticipate the timing, outcome or possible impact of the ultimate resolution of these investigations, financial or otherwise. The governmental agencies involved in these investigations have a broad range of civil and criminal penalties they may seek to impose against corporations and individuals for violations of trade sanction laws, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other federal statutes including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, disgorgement, fines, penalties and modifications to business practices and compliance programs. In recent years, these agencies and authorities have entered into agreements with, and obtained a range of penalties against, several public corporations and individuals in similar investigations, under which civil and criminal penalties were imposed, including in some cases fines and other penalties and sanctions in the tens and hundreds of millions of dollars. These agencies likely will seek to impose penalties of some amount against us for past conduct, but the ultimate amount of any penalties we may pay currently cannot be reasonably estimated. Under trade sanction laws, the U.S. Department of Justice may also seek to impose modifications to business practices, including immediate cessation of all business activities in specific countries or other limitations that decrease our business, and modifications to compliance programs, which may increase compliance costs. Any injunctive relief, disgorgement, fines, penalties, sanctions or imposed modifications to business practices resulting from these investigations could adversely affect our results of operations. Through June 30, 2011, we have incurred $49 million for costs in connection with our exit from certain sanctioned countries and incurred $117 million for legal and professional fees in connection with complying with and conducting these on-going investigations. This amount excludes the costs we have incurred to augment and improve our compliance function. We may have additional charges related to these matters in future periods, which costs may include labor claims, contractual claims, penalties assessed by customers, and costs, fines, taxes and penalties assessed by the local governments, but we cannot quantify those charges or be certain of the timing of them. In addition, the SEC is investigating the circumstances surrounding the material weakness in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting for income taxes that was disclosed on Forms 12b-25 and 8-K on March 1, 2011 and the related restatement of historical financial statements. We are cooperating with the investigation. |

• | Failure in the future to ensure ongoing compliance with certain laws could affect our results of operations.In 2009, we substantially augmented our compliance infrastructure with increased staff and more rigorous policies, procedures and training of our employees regarding compliance with applicable anti-corruption laws, trade sanctions laws and import/export laws. As part of this effort, we now undertake audits of our compliance performance in various countries. Our forward-looking statements assume that our compliance efforts will be successful and that we will comply with our internal policies and applicable laws regarding these issues. Our failure to do so could result in additional enforcement action in the future, the results of which could be material and adverse to us. | |
• | Political disturbances, war, or terrorist attacks and changes in global trade policies could adversely impact our operations. We operate in over 100 countries, and as such are at risk of various types of political activities, including acts of insurrection, war, terrorism, nationalization of assets and changes in trade policies. We have assumed there will be no material political disturbances or terrorist attacks and there will be no material changes in global trade policies that affect our business. In early 2011, our operations in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and to a lesser extent Yemen and Bahrain were disrupted by political revolutions and uprisings in these countries. Civil war in Libya and lesser political disturbances elsewhere in the Middle East and North Africa regions are ongoing, and our operations in Libya have not resumed. During 2010, these five countries accounted for approximately 3% of our global revenue. We have taken steps to secure our personnel and assets in affected areas and to resume or continue operations where it is safe for us to do so, and our forward-looking statements assume we will do so successfully. In Libya, we have evacuated all of our non-Libyan employees and their families. At June 30, 2011, we had in Libya inventory, property, plant and equipment (net) with a carrying value of approximately $142 million, $57 million of accounts receivable that currently are subject to sanctions recently imposed by western governments as well as cash and other current assets of approximately $23 million. In cases where we must evacuate personnel, it may be difficult, if not impossible, for us to safeguard and recover our operating assets, and our ability to do so will depend on the local turn of events. In these areas we also may not be able to perform the work we are contracted to perform, which could lead to forfeiture of performance bonds. We currently have outstanding approximately $18 million of performance bonds related to contracts in Libya. Based on information available to us and our current assessment of the situation in Libya, we believe that we will recover our assets there, and we have not impaired these assets. Our forward-looking statements assume that we will not incur a substantial loss with respect to our assets or performance bonds located in or related to affected areas. We have assumed our operations in Libya will not resume in 2011. We have assumed that cessation of business activities in other parts of the Middle East and North Africa regions due to political turmoil will be short-lived, that the negative impact on our business will not be material, and that the region will not experience further disruptive political revolution in the near term. However, if political violence were to curtail our activities in other countries in the region from which we derive greater business, such as Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Algeria, and particularly if political activities were to result in prolonged violence or civil war, we may fail to achieve the results reflected in our forward-looking statements. | |
• | The material weakness in accounting for income taxes could have an adverse effect on our share price.If we are unable to effectively remediate this material weakness in a timely manner, we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could have an adverse effect on our share price and could subject us to additional potentially costly shareholder litigation or government inquiries. Our forward-looking statements assume we will be able to remediate the material weakness in a timely manner and will maintain an effective internal control environment in the future. | |
• | Recent turmoil in the credit markets may reduce our access to capital or reduce the availability of financial risk-mitigation tools. The worldwide credit markets experienced turmoil and uncertainty from mid-2008 through most of 2009, and certain markets remained challenging in parts of 2010. Our forward-looking statements assume that the financial institutions that have committed to extend us credit will honor their commitments under our credit facilities. If one or more of those institutions becomes unwilling or unable to honor its commitments, our access to liquidity could be impaired and our cost of capital to fund growth could increase. We use interest rate and foreign exchange swap transactions with financial institutions to mitigate certain interest rate and foreign exchange risks associated with our capital structure and our business. Our forward-looking statements assume that those tools will continue to be available to us at prices we deem reasonable. However, the failure of any counter party to honor a swap agreement could |
38
Table of Contents
reduce the availability of these financial risk mitigation tools or could result in the loss of expected financial benefits. |
Finally, our future results will depend upon various other risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those detailed in our other filings with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. For additional information regarding risks and uncertainties, see our other filings with the SEC. Our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934 are made available free of charge on our internet web sitewww.weatherford.com as soon as reasonably practicable after we have electronically filed the material with, or furnished it to, the SEC.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are currently exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency and changes in interest rates. From time to time, we may enter into derivative financial instrument transactions to manage or reduce our market risk. A discussion of our market risk exposure in these financial instruments follows.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
We operate in virtually every oil and natural gas exploration and production region in the world. In some parts of the world, such as the Middle East and Southeast Asia, the currency of our primary economic environment is the U.S. dollar. We use this as our functional currency. In other parts of the world, we conduct our business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and the functional currency is the applicable local currency.
In January 2010, the Venezuelan government announced its intention to devalue its currency and move to a two-tier exchange structure. The official exchange rate moved from 2.15 to 2.60 for essential goods and from 2.15 to 4.30 for non-essential goods and services. Our Venezuelan entities maintain the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. In connection with this devaluation, we incurred a charge of $64 million for the remeasurement of our net monetary assets denominated in Venezuelan bolivars at the date of the devaluation, which was not tax deductible in Venezuela. We also recorded a $24 million tax benefit for local Venezuelan income tax purposes related to our net U.S. dollar-denominated monetary liability position in the country. Effective January 1, 2011, the Venezuelan government again modified the fixed rate of exchange, eliminating the two-tier structure and establishing 4.30 as the official exchange rate for all goods and services. This modification did not have a material impact to our financial position or results of operations. As of June 30, 2011, we had a net monetary asset position denominated in Venezuelan bolivars of approximately $96 million comprised primarily of cash and accounts receivable. We are continuing to explore opportunities to reduce our exposure but should another devaluation occur in the future, we may be required to take further charges related to the remeasurement of our net monetary asset position. For example, if the Venezuela bolivar devalued by an additional 10% in the future, we would record a devaluation charge of approximately $10 million.
Assets and liabilities of entities for which the functional currency is the local currency are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, resulting in translation adjustments that are reflected in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in the shareholders’ equity section on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. A portion of our net assets are impacted by changes in foreign currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. We recorded a $196 million adjustment to increase our equity account for the six months ended June 30, 2011, to reflect the net impact of the weakening of the U.S. dollar against various foreign currencies.
As of June 30, 2011, we had foreign currency forward contracts with notional amounts aggregating to $687 million, which were entered into to hedge exposure to fluctuations in various foreign currencies. The total estimated fair value of these contracts at June 30, 2011, resulted in a net liability of approximately $4 million. These derivative instruments were not designated as hedges, and the changes in fair value of the contracts are recorded each period in current earnings.
We have cross-currency swaps between the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar to hedge certain exposures to the Canadian dollar. At June 30, 2011, we had notional amounts outstanding of $215 million. The total estimated fair
39
Table of Contents
value of these contracts at June 30, 2011, resulted in a liability of $40 million. These derivative instruments were not designated as hedges and the changes in fair value of the contracts are recorded each period in current earnings.
Interest Rates
We are subject to interest rate risk on our long-term fixed-interest rate debt and variable-interest rate borrowings. Variable rate debt, where the interest rate fluctuates periodically, exposes us to short-term changes in market interest rates. Fixed rate debt, where the interest rate is fixed over the life of the instrument, exposes us to changes in market interest rates reflected in the fair value of the debt and to the risk that we may need to refinance maturing debt with new debt at a higher rate. All other things being equal, the fair value of our fixed rate debt will increase or decrease as interest rates change.
Our long-term borrowings that were outstanding at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, subject to interest rate risk consist of the following:

We have various other long-term debt instruments of $222 million at June 30, 2011, but believe the impact of changes in interest rates in the near term will not be material to these instruments. The carrying value of our short-term borrowings of $619 million at June 30, 2011 approximates their fair value.
As it relates to our variable rate debt, if market interest rates average 1% more for the remainder of 2011 than the rates as of June 30, 2011, interest expense for the remainder of 2011 would increase by less than $1 million. This amount was determined by calculating the effect of the hypothetical interest rate on our variable rate debt. This sensitivity analysis assumes there are no changes in our financial structure.
Interest Rate Swaps and Derivatives
We manage our debt portfolio to achieve an overall desired position of fixed and floating rates and may employ interest rate swaps as a tool to achieve that goal. The major risks from interest rate derivatives include changes in the interest rates affecting the fair value of such instruments, potential increases in interest expense due to market increases in floating interest rates and the creditworthiness of the counterparties in such transactions. When we employ the use of interest rate swaps, our counterparties are multinational commercial banks. In light of events in the global credit markets and the potential impact of these events on the liquidity of the banking industry, we continue to monitor the creditworthiness of our counterparties.
Amounts paid or received upon termination of interest rate swaps represent the fair value of the agreements at the time of termination and are recorded as an adjustment to the carrying value of the related debt. These amounts

are amortized as a reduction (in the case of gains) or as an increase (in the case of losses) to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt. As of June 30, 2011, we had net unamortized gains of $50 million associated with interest rate swap terminations.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Material Weakness Previously Disclosed
We disclosed on Item 9A of our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K that we identified a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting for income taxes. Our processes, procedures and controls related to financial reporting were not effective to ensure that amounts related to current taxes payable, certain deferred tax assets and liabilities, reserves for uncertain tax positions, the current and deferred income tax expense and related footnote disclosures were accurate. Specifically, our processes and procedures were not designed to provide for adequate and timely identification and review of various income tax calculations, reconciliations and related supporting documentation required to apply our accounting policies for income taxes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This material weakness resulted in the restatement for material errors in the income tax accounts in 2008 and 2009 consolidated financial statements and our condensed consolidated financial statements for each of the quarters within 2009 and 2010.
The principal factors contributing to the material weakness were: 1) inadequate staffing and technical expertise within the company related to taxes, 2) ineffective review and approval practices relating to taxes, 3) inadequate processes to effectively reconcile income tax accounts and 4) inadequate controls over the preparation of the quarterly tax provision.
In response to the identified material weakness, management, with oversight from our Audit Committee, has dedicated resources, including retaining third-party consultants, to improve our internal controls over accounting for income taxes and to remediate the identified material weakness.
During the first six months of 2011, we undertook the following steps:
• | Engaged third-party tax advisors and consultants to assist with enhancing internal controls over financial reporting for income taxes and developing and implementing a remediation plan; | ||
• | Revised the process for the quarterly tax provision including additional resources focused on the review and oversight of the tax accounts and preparation of the income tax provision; | ||
• | Began recruitment of various positions within the tax and financial reporting departments and completed the hiring of some positions during the second quarter; and | ||
• | Conducted training on accounting for income taxes with our regional tax personnel. |
We also expect the remediation plan to include the following areas of focus: |
• | Continued enhancement of the processes and procedures surrounding the review of the income tax provision; | ||
• | Review and validation of both the current and deferred balance sheet accounts at significant locations; | ||
• | Ongoing evaluation of existing roles and responsibilities within the tax function to ensure they are adequately staffed with appropriate personnel; and | ||
• | Continued delivery of our comprehensive income tax accounting training program for tax and financial personnel to a broader audience. |
We anticipate the actions to be taken, and resulting process improvements, to generally strengthen our internal control over financial reporting, as well as our disclosure controls and procedure and over time, will address the material weakness noted in 2010. However, because many of the remedial actions have only recently been undertaken and because some of our remediation plans will be put in place over the remainder of the year, management will not be able to conclude that the material weakness has been remediated until, at the earliest, the completion of the 2011 year-end income tax provision.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation and the evaluation of the previously identified material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting for income taxes disclosed in our 2010 Form 10-K, our CEO and CFO have concluded our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that information relating to us (including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management, including the CEO and CFO, identified no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2011, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting other than the changes resulting from the remediation activities described above.

Under our restricted share plan, employees may elect to have us withhold registered shares to satisfy minimum statutory federal, state and local tax withholding obligations arising on the vesting of restricted stock awards and exercise of options. When we withhold these shares, we are required to remit to the appropriate taxing authorities the market price of the shares withheld, which could be deemed a purchase of the registered shares by us on the date of withholding. During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, we withheld registered shares to satisfy these tax withholding obligations as follows:
No. of | Average | |||||||
Period | Shares | Price | ||||||
April 1 — April 30, 2011 | 110,860 | $ | 21.87 | |||||
