Oil States Announces Third Quarter Earnings of $0.97 per Share

      HOUSTON, Nov. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Oil States International, Inc.
(NYSE: OIS) today reported net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2007
of $50.5 million, or $0.97 per diluted share. These results compare to $50.1
million, or $0.99 per diluted share, reported in the third quarter of 2006.

      Improvements in deepwater and oil sands activity coupled with
contributions from acquisitions completed in the quarter generated improved
year-over-year revenues. However, lower margins at our Tubular Services segment,
which led to a $7.1 million year-over-year decrease in that segment's EBITDA,
resulted in relatively flat year-over-year EBITDA for the Company. The Company
generated $527.4 million of revenues and $94.6 million of EBITDA (defined as net
income plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) in the third quarter
of 2007 compared to $479.5 million and $93.9 million, respectively, in the third
quarter of 2006.(A) Offshore Products EBITDA increased 29% year-over-year due to
strong shipments of deepwater capital equipment across its product lines. Well
Site Services reported higher revenues and EBITDA due primarily to contributions
from two rental tool acquisitions completed in the quarter and increased
activity supporting the Canadian oil sands developments. Well Site Services
growth was partially offset by some regional weakness in its U.S. and Canadian
drilling related operations. Tubular Services reported flat revenues
year-over-year but lower EBITDA due to flattening U.S. drilling activity and a
competitive OCTG pricing environment, negatively impacting margins. Operating
income in the third quarter of 2007 was $74.8 million compared to $75.5 million
for the third quarter of 2006. The Company recognized an effective tax rate of
30.3% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to 34.1% recognized in the third
quarter of 2006. The Company currently expects the effective tax rate to
approximate 34% during the fourth quarter of 2007.

      The Company reported net income of $155.2 million, or $3.05 per diluted
share, on revenues of $1.5 billion and EBITDA of $290.9 million for the first
nine months of 2007. For the same period in 2006, the Company reported net
income of $148.3 million, or $2.91 per diluted share, on revenues of $1.4
billion and EBITDA of $282.4 million. This represents a 5% year-over-year
increase in revenue and a 3% increase in EBITDA. However, increased depreciation
related to higher capital spending over the last twelve months led to relatively
flat operating income year-over-year. The results for 2007 include a $12.8
million pre-tax gain, or an after-tax gain of $0.17 per diluted share, related
to the sale of a portion of its investment in Boots & Coots. Conversely, in
2006, the Company recognized an $11.3 million pre-tax gain, or $0.12 per diluted
share, from the initial sale of its workover business to Boots & Coots.

      BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS

      (Unless otherwise noted, the following discussion compares the quarterly
results from the third quarter of 2007 to the results from the third quarter of
2006 in order to present a more meaningful comparison of the Company's results.)

      Well Site Services

      For the third quarter of 2007, Well Site Services generated revenues of
$179.7 million and EBITDA of $65.4 million compared to $154.4 million and $62.0
million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2006. The 16% year-over-year
increase in revenues and 6% increase in EBITDA were primarily due to organic
growth in support of the Canadian oil sands developments, expansion in rental
tool operations and the contributions from the Well Testing and Schooner
acquisitions closed during the quarter. Partially offsetting this growth was
lower utilization and margins on the Company's drilling rigs and lower margins
reported by the Company's existing rental business.



      The accommodations business reported revenues and EBITDA of $65.9 million
and $22.7 million for the third quarter of 2007, respectively, compared to
revenues of $64.0 million and EBITDA of $20.3 million in the third quarter of
2006. The accommodations business improved as activity and margins continued to
expand in our oil sands support operations in Canada coupled with the
strengthening of the Canadian dollar; however, these gains were partially offset
by lower revenues and margins in the Company's traditional Canadian drilling and
Gulf of Mexico accommodations. Drilling services recognized revenues of $40.2
million and EBITDA of $16.3 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to
$37.1 million of revenues and $18.6 million of EBITDA in the third quarter 2006.
Drilling services benefited from additional capacity from three rigs added to
the fleet since the third quarter of 2006. However, this capacity growth was
offset by reduced utilization and higher costs, primarily in its Texas
operations. Rental tools generated $73.6 million of revenues and $26.4 million
of EBITDA in the third quarter of 2007 compared to revenue and EBITDA in the
third quarter of 2006 of $53.3 million and $23.0 million, respectively. This
year-over-year growth was due to combined contributions of $18.8 million of
revenue and $5.2 million of EBITDA from the two acquisitions closed during the
quarter, as noted above, partially offset by some regional reductions in
drilling and completion activity, primarily in the Permian Basin and Canada.

      Offshore Products

      During the third quarter of 2007, Offshore Products continued to generate
improved year-over-year results, reporting $132.1 million of revenues and $24.7
million of EBITDA compared to $110.0 million and $19.1 million, respectively, in
the third quarter of 2006. The growth was primarily due to increased volumes and
margins from bearing and connector products. EBITDA margin increased to 19% in
the quarter from 17% in the third quarter of 2006. Backlog was relatively flat
sequentially, totaling $396.0 million at September 30, 2007 compared to $402.2
million at June 30, 2007, but was up significantly from the $349.3 million of
backlog reported as of December 31, 2006.

      Tubular Services

      Tubular Services generated revenues of $215.6 million and EBITDA of $10.2
million during the third quarter of 2007 compared to $215.0 million and $17.3
million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2006. Tubular Services' OCTG
shipments increased 6% to 126,800 tons from 120,000 tons shipped in the third
quarter of 2006. Gross margin in the third quarter of 2007, while down
year-over-year, was essentially flat sequentially at 6.0% from the 6.4% reported
in the second quarter of 2007 due to competitive pricing. The Company's OCTG
inventory as of September 30, 2007 was $208.6 million compared to $221.7 million
as of June 30, 2007 and $261.8 million as of December 31, 2006. As of September
30, 2007, approximately 67% of Oil States' OCTG inventory was committed to
customer orders.

      "With strong deepwater and oil sands activity coupled with contributions
from two acquisitions closed during the quarter, we were able to generate record
quarterly revenue in the third quarter of 2007," stated Cindy B. Taylor, Oil
States' President and Chief Executive Officer. "Regional reductions in drilling
and completion activity in the U.S. and Canada put some pressure on our North
American leveraged businesses. Looking forward, fundamentals for both deepwater
capital spending and oil sands activity continue to look promising in the fourth
quarter and throughout 2008. We expect U.S. activity in the fourth quarter to be
flat to down sequentially due to pockets of regional activity weakness and
holiday slowdowns which are typical for the fourth quarter. Our current
expectation for fourth quarter 2007 earnings is in a range of $0.92 to $0.98 per
diluted share."

(A)   The term EBITDA consists of net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation
      and amortization. EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under
      generally accepted accounting principles. You should not consider it in
      isolation from or as a substitute for net income or cash flow measures
      prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as
      a measure of profitability or liquidity. Additionally, EBITDA may not be
      comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The
      Company has included EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because its
      management believes that EBITDA provides useful information regarding our
      ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures and provides
      investors a helpful measure for comparing its operating performance with
      the performance of other companies that have different financing and
      capital structures or tax rates. The Company uses EBITDA to compare and to
      monitor the performance of its business segments to other comparable
      public companies and as a benchmark for the award of incentive
      compensation under its annual incentive compensation plan. The following
      table sets forth a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, which is the
      most directly comparable measure of financial performance calculated under
      generally accepted accounting principles:
