June 9 (Reuters) – Baker Hughes said on Monday it will sell its precision sensors and instrumentation (PSI) product line to aerospace and defense parts manufacturer Crane for $1.15 billion, as the oilfield services provider looks to optimize its portfolio.
CEO Lorenzo Simonelli has been reshaping Baker Hughes to adapt to the global energy transition, shedding non-core assets while investing in cleaner energy solutions.
The company has leaned on its portfolio refinement efforts to boost earnings and cash flow durability as the oil industry grapples with weak spending on oilfield activity.
Baker Hughes last week sold 65% of its surface pressure control business to a unit of equipment maker Cactus for $334.5 million.
The PSI includes three brands — Druck, Reuter-Stokes and Panametrics — which supply pressure sensing, radiation detection and flow measurement technologies used across aerospace, nuclear as well as industrial markets.
The unit is projected to generate about $390 million in revenue and $60 million in adjusted EBITDA in 2025.
The transaction is expected to close at the end of 2025 or early 2026, Baker Hughes said.
