incremental you're just investing I revenue I things was your the would wondering the the incremental if way investment? you could of from look what some growing engineering return think that we like of to mean, or you're a could any about think how on market addressable on expand more what and expense? little

Blake DeBerry

Sure.

portion to So, if a X.X additional per to subsea the you to tree. tree, controls about million be add $X is that take is of going million going

Right. price. So, the that's

So, control having trees. to million of million going sales you're as side. SPS basically million a It's your price X.X additive per in to the to grow the add you a $X the business, tree

Jeff Bird

gain the And world you effect And other the on out we then is at fees and as there's other to awarded think at year a the tree built that I have controls drive have that's that in opportunity you share you for as the well. as fact XXXX, really look and I think, the us trees a every well. plus there class XXX you essentially nine look controls an trees knock booked market within

in the the industry drive share So, a win that's also you every really tree, as time the get opportunity as more well. sell market to a. but

Connor Lynagh

you have innovation we're how share up? market Okay, mean, sense. much a of if in etc do would level to you drive to guys that for I relatively expect that market argument, for sake market any growth flat that bring the higher makes just relative targets

Blake DeBerry

market different our in subsea now, other we relatively just the and that sub we there's runway share needs. products X% didn't low varieties breadth lot and right the tree the fulfill of couldn't there customer we've So, of so trees all is our a is challenge the had that

XX%, thing trees XXX XXX so to the moving some that up that's of to local to market us of the was XX% XX% is first more still We're now of we've market, and expanded on. of available areas content. available challenging us are our always There's our getting market. available bid we what XX%, them So, because had a year, the that we maybe

believe have some that design operators our areas reviewing Right major But, now with one. make new a the our we first as won't VXTE we four participate differentiated products, there's we product definitely So we in. we have customers. our we, that's to attractive

bid, Dril-Quip something quickly us giving of opportunity can systems we accepted, that's the really that it in they four said, elusive, present it I we but been been a at had and in good them to an get that the production independents, subsea moment. right. haven't qualify interested getting operator that past, So, like interested the We've has major with got

Connor Lynagh

helpful. That's it. Got

one Just to here the market just in wellheads broader more on sneak more and side of a things.

guys about go little that. restocking. I is to there uncertainty think out on years, the of sort or that's appreciate and a talked you past catch more price there's bit you couple of quarter up a played the say been point within the at have for of a a effect this oil I a Would

Blake DeBerry

Yeah. mean. I

Let's the oil set price aside.

bit little has inventory every different a position. think customer I

them and We're that independents. they've is dormant have think winding, to had. consuming up even picking reorder and years winding four the the for in these getting feedback back time that inventory down. are it's from it are of or three been Hey, are most people I arena, offshore

forward portion And to normal a order more in we're more cycle. so, consumption is our the back going of view

Connor Lynagh

Alright. Thanks much. very

Operator

And of Please ahead. from Vaishnav the question come our Scotiabank. go next Vebs will

Vebs Vaishnav

Hey.

any typically not same about year. bookings product in you this you of So, should that in Brazil XX get wellhead the that up tender why about coming Brazil hold XX% any product reason spoke

Blake DeBerry

So, Brazil is interesting. They're changing their model a bit.

quantity, shorter tender base. to shorter going more they're And cycle, broader but so, a

the of waning think, is Vebs. So, I the think I past model

I use process, bid lot very, good. they're so will with with done competitive is because think, I additional work a even driven We've to that them to that more to is I their our and new changed of many and that's made say it's own technical existing Petrobras qualification, We've per-well some it their a relationship inventory, allow IOCs partnering or done changed allowed some on though lot of wellheads it's they've their model. them think very a basis. bidding our specifications. to a of what's consume them products,

a the going about not yeah we're open tender but, arrangement necessarily they've optimistic past. So, in split be to as the tender process, an there's done

Vebs Vaishnav

it. Got

Okay.

you about seen have increased talk that. or the product shifted bookings, has mix way We Can one other? the

Blake DeBerry

backlog. our within mean You

Vebs Vaishnav

roll the going higher on we as little into we're So, mix. bit earlier, shift booking in percentage to which Jeff XXXX, subsea wellheads, to confidence gives that have more us we XXXX as normal a seen spoke the

Vebs Vaishnav

maybe Jeff. for And it. Got question

is two? cost guys this maybe to about a about thinking talking gap correctly, bridge to and between $XXX had. I'm despite million XX the $XX million XX if Can million R&D. million the SG&A me So, you $X off of million savings you're that higher That help

Jeff Bird

manufacturing those late were of in chain of engineering million lines those just million SG&A XX flat SG&A happened early and year The early all engineering. R&D. cost majority actually SG&A XX SG&A versus supply 'XX, and not and 'XX. But up wins is year, So the vast There million Vebs. to R&D really and more on XX the lines, million very XXX on side that is savings the some comes the that the comes the on across

So, have the full in year would booked been 'XX. late savings from those

that had year savings You full there.

not 'XX. 'XX chain going going manufacturing in incremental that . You're from much not SG&A to that be a and to and incremental to see savings, come million needs supply savings R&D of remaining out XX Most to is

Vebs Vaishnav

But in in quarter saw some half virus. should had would And is yes of due maybe first the 'XX we to margins margins the that implication where shift get corona be, headwinds to of because second beyond better? the back that the or

Jeff Bird

year. of on of see bit those profile improve headwinds there to the back will But lower the and that through $XX backend as pressure and candidly, just as year mean, well. well back the margins a you then that start off, of of to Yes, back obviously volume half should I little is because the million see on a the you that of the as think bit margins you puts go margins to a with roll the I through little be look

bit margin QX. little probably and we'll headwind of up ramping a So, through in start QX, with

Blake Gendron

totally Got you, fair. that's

larger This keep to any deals framework it it the or kind like preclude you doesn't as stands So, that's same. small? of would all currently
