Riteks, Inc. Named Authorized Channel Partner for Baker Hughes Cementing Products in North America

Press Release

Houston-based specialty chemical company joins Baker Hughes’ qualified global channel partner network to deliver Baker Hughes cementing technology, products, and services to operators across the United States and Canada.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE · Houston, Texas · April 2026

HOUSTON, TX — Riteks, Inc., a specialty chemical company headquartered in Houston, Texas, today announced that it has been designated as an authorized Channel Partner for Baker Hughes (NASDAQ: BKR), with responsibility for distributing and servicing Baker Hughes cementing technology, products, and services across North America, including the United States and Canada.

As a member of Baker Hughes’ global channel partner network — which consists of qualified resellers, distributors, sales representatives, value-added resellers, and service providers — Riteks will serve as a local point of access for Baker Hughes cementing technology and products, enabling operators in North America to benefit from Baker Hughes’ proven technology backed by Riteks’ regional presence, inventory, and technical service capability.

What Operators Access Through Riteks

Baker Hughes’ channel partner program is structured to extend the reach of Baker Hughes technology and services through qualified regional partners. As an authorized channel partner, Riteks provides North America operators with:

Baker Hughes Reliable Technology and Products

Direct access to Baker Hughes’ cementing technology and product portfolio, backed by Baker Hughes’ global engineering and quality standards, delivered through Riteks’ qualified and trained local team.

Local-Level Inventory and Service

Riteks’ Houston-based operations and regional infrastructure enable rapid fulfillment and on-the-ground technical service, giving operators fast access to Baker Hughes products without extended supply chain lead times.

Customized Solutions Fit for Your Application

Riteks’ in-house laboratory and application engineering resources support operators in identifying and deploying the right Baker Hughes cementing solutions for specific well conditions and project requirements.

Maximum Project Value Through Flexible Commercial Models

Consistent with Baker Hughes’ on-demand solutions framework, Riteks supports flexible commercial arrangements — including alternative business models, direct sales, and service options — that maximize value for each operator program.

Riteks’ Role in the Baker Hughes Channel Partner Network

Baker Hughes’ global channel partner network is designed to bring Baker Hughes technology, products, and service to operators through qualified regional partners with established local commercial relationships and technical capability. Channel partners are selected and authorized by Baker Hughes to operate as trusted extensions of its commercial and service infrastructure.

Riteks brings more than 40 years of oilfield chemical expertise to this role, with deep familiarity with cementing applications, well conditions, and operator requirements across North America. Riteks’ Houston-based blending, manufacturing, and laboratory operations provide the logistical proximity and technical depth required to serve as an effective and responsive channel partner for Baker Hughes in the region.

The channel partner designation allows Riteks to extend its commercial offering to North America oilfield operators by adding Baker Hughes’ globally recognized cementing technology and products alongside Riteks’ established specialty chemical expertise — giving operators a single, qualified regional relationship for both Baker Hughes cementing products and Riteks’ own oilfield chemical solutions.

Strategic Context

The North America oilfield services market continues to be shaped by operator demand for consolidated supplier relationships, efficient regional supply chains, and partners who can provide both product access and application-level technical service. Baker Hughes’ channel partner model directly addresses these needs by qualifying independent regional partners with the expertise and infrastructure to deliver Baker Hughes technology effectively at the local level.

For Riteks, the Baker Hughes channel partner designation represents a significant expansion of the company’s commercial capabilities in North America, enabling it to offer operators access to one of the world’s leading cementing technology portfolios alongside Riteks’ established specialty chemical products and services. Both parties anticipate a long-term relationship with potential to expand scope as the partnership matures.
