Community Investment
The Baker Hughes commitment to Angola’s people
does not stop at recruiting and training employees. The
company is committed to furthering the local economy
and social structure through community investments.
In 2008 the Baker Hughes Foundation launched the
Baker Hughes Scholars Program, providing grants to
local undergraduate students committed to furthering
their education to drive Angola’s economic development.
Eighty-four percent of the students in the program are
the first in their families to pursue higher education.

Expanding Infrastructure
    Baker Hughes currently operates in three regions
    in Angola: Luanda, Soyo and Cabinda. In 1999
    Baker Hughes transferred its operations to a
    purpose-built facility in the Sonils Oil Service
    Center in Luanda. This facility serves as the
    primary base of operations for all Baker Hughes
    product lines and the Angola leadership team.
    Soyo and Cabinda serve as operations centers.

    In 2009-2010 Baker Hughes will invest over
    $80 million in capital projects in all of these
    regions, bringing new business to the local
    communities while enhancing our ability to
    support operators in Angola. The infrastructure
