In 1920, Jim Abercrombie, Ed Lorehn, Harry Cameron and several other partners incorporated an oilfield repair shop in Houston, Texas under the name Cameron Iron Works (CIW). Abercrombie subsequently invented and CIW manufactured the industry’s first blowout preventer for use in oil and gas well drilling. CIW grew rapidly due to sales of blowout preventers and other oilfield equipment. In the early 1940’s, CIW entered the market for defense-related equipment becoming a major supplier of anti-submarine and other naval armaments to the U.S. Navy. CIW also became a leading supplier of forged metal products for both defense and oilfield applications replacing less durable cast metal components of the day. CIW subsequently expanded into various other flow control, valve and pressure control equipment businesses acquiring Joy Petroleum Equipment and McEvoy-Willis wellhead equipment prior to its acquisition by Cooper Industries, Inc. in 1989.
Cameron was incorporated in its current form as a Delaware corporation on November 10, 1994, when Cooper Industries transferred all of the assets and liabilities of its Petroleum and Industrial Equipment segment into this new entity. Following this, the Company operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cooper Industries from 1994 until June 30, 1995, when it was spun-off as a separate stand-alone company and renamed Cooper Cameron Corporation. The Company subsequently changed its name to Cameron International Corporation in May 2006. Since becoming a stand-alone company, Cameron has made numerous acquisitions, including the 1996 acquisition of Ingram Cactus Company, the 1998 acquisition of Orbit Valve International, Inc., 2004’s acquisition of Petreco International, Inc., the purchase of substantially all of the businesses within the Flow Control segment of Dresser, Inc. in 2005, the acquisition of NATCO Group Inc. (NATCO) in 2009, the purchase of LeTourneau Technologies Drilling Systems, Inc. in 2011 and the acquisition of the TTS Energy Division from TTS Group, ASA in 2012. In 2013, Cameron and Schlumberger Limited joined together to form OneSubsea™, a venture established to manufacture and develop products, systems and services for the subsea oil and gas market. Cameron is a 60% owner and manager of OneSubsea. Today, Cameron is a Fortune 500 company with annual revenues of $9.8 billion and a workforce of over 29,000 employees. Cameron also has legal entities in more than 50 countries worldwide.

Business Segments
Markets and Products
Drilling & Production Systems Segment
The DPS segment includes businesses that provide systems and equipment used to drill, control pressures and direct flows of oil and gas wells. Its products are employed in a wide variety of operating environments including basic onshore fields, highly complex onshore and offshore environments, deepwater subsea applications and ultra-high temperature geothermal operations.
The products within this segment include drilling equipment packages, blowout preventers (BOPs), drilling risers, top drives, draw works, complete wellhead and Christmas tree systems for onshore and offshore applications, subsea production systems and manifolds and aftermarket parts and services. In addition, the DPS segment designs and manufactures structural components for land and offshore drilling rigs. The segment’s businesses also manufacture elastomers, which are used in pressure and flow control equipment and other petroleum industry applications, as well as in the petroleum, petrochemical, rubber molding and plastics industries.
The businesses within this segment primarily market their products directly to end-users through a worldwide network of sales and marketing employees, supported by agents in some international locations. Due to the technical nature of many of the products, the marketing effort is further supported by a staff of engineering employees. Customers include oil and gas majors, national oil companies, independent producers, engineering and construction companies, drilling contractors, rental companies and geothermal energy producers.
The businesses included in this segment are as follows:
Drilling Systems -
Drilling Systems is one of the leading global suppliers of integrated drilling systems for onshore and offshore applications. Drilling equipment designed and manufactured includes ram and annular BOPs, control systems, drilling risers, drilling valves, choke and kill manifolds, diverter systems, top drives, draw works, mud pumps, pipe handling equipment, other rig products and aftermarket parts and services. The products are marketed under the Cameron®, Guiberson™, H&H CUSTOM™, H&H Melco™, LeTourneau®, Lewco®, OEM®, Sense™ and Townsend™ brand names.
Drilling Systems significantly enhanced its product offerings to its customers with the late 2011 acquisition of LeTourneau Technologies Drilling Systems, Inc. (LeTourneau) from Joy Global Inc., and the mid-2012 acquisition of TTS Energy Division from TTS Group ASA, a Norwegian company (TTS). LeTourneau provides drilling equipment and rig designs and components for both the land and offshore rig markets. LeTourneau’s products include elevating systems, skidding systems, cranes, top drives, rotary tables, draw works, mud pumps and rig control and power systems. TTS provides high performance drilling equipment, rig packages and rig solutions for both onshore and offshore rigs internationally.
Drilling Systems continues to be a primary supplier of BOPs and related equipment to the drilling industry. The level of major project awards for new drilling equipment is often influenced by construction cycles for new build deepwater drillships and semi-submersibles, as well as shallow water jack-up rigs. In recent years, the level of such awards was strong during the 2006 - 2008 and 2011 - 2012 time periods but has tapered off in 2013. During 2012, orders for drilling equipment nearly doubled from 2011 as a result of the LeTourneau and TTS acquisitions mentioned above and due to a high level of major awards for drilling stacks and related equipment for new deepwater drilling rigs and as spares for existing rigs. Additionally, land drilling has been bolstered in recent years by increased investment in unconventional markets like the major shale areas in North America and higher activity levels in the Middle East, Caspian and Far East.
Tighter regulations for the industry and an increased focus on safety have caused drilling contractors and operators, both on land and in deepwater environments, to turn to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) for service, equipment repair and related parts, in many cases to re-certify BOP stacks back to OEM specifications or for new equipment to replace an aging fleet. This has led to increased demand for aftermarket services and for additional drilling stacks, BOP’s and related equipment for use as spares to supplement or replace existing equipment currently in use. The strong level of demand for aftermarket parts and services has contributed to a record backlog in this business, including a 13% increase from year end 2012 levels.
Drilling Systems has had efforts underway in the last couple of years to expand its global aftermarket capabilities as a result of the renewed industry emphasis on safety and enhanced focus on use of OEMs. In order to meet increased customer demand, Drilling Systems increased its capital spending in 2013 by nearly 15% as compared to 2012 in order to expand its manufacturing capabilities in Singapore and Berwick, Louisiana, and to continue to add to its aftermarket capabilities worldwide.
Surface Systems -
Surface Systems designs and manufactures complete wellhead and Christmas tree systems for onshore and offshore applications - from conventional to high-pressure, high temperature systems, to specialized systems for dry completions and heavy oil.

Surface Systems provides a complete portfolio of API 6A valves, chokes, actuators and artificial lift technologies marketed under the Cameron®, Camrod™, IC™, McEvoy®, Precision™, SBS™, Tundra™, Willis® and WKM® brand names.
New technology developments, along with robust customer spending in recent years for exploration and production within unconventional resource regions of North America, has resulted in increased demand for the Company’s equipment and services. In order to further enhance its worldwide surface product and service offerings, the Company acquired Elco Filtration and Testing, Inc., CairnToul Well Equipment Services Limited and ICI Artificial Lift, Inc. during 2012. As a result of these acquisitions, continued high demand for equipment and hydraulic fracturing support services in unconventional resource regions of North America, expansion into Iraq and higher activity and market penetration levels in certain other regions of the world, Surface Systems was able to exceed its previous record bookings level in 2012 by 23%, setting a new record in 2013.
Capital spending by Surface Systems increased 18% in 2013 as compared to 2012. During 2013, the business added machine tools to increase its global capacity, continued to expand its fleet of rental equipment and added additional office space in connection with the Company’s continued growth.
OneSubsea -
On June 30, 2013, Cameron and Schlumberger Limited completed the formation of OneSubsea. Cameron contributed its existing subsea business unit and received $600 million from Schlumberger, while Schlumberger contributed its Framo, Surveillance, Flow Assurance and Power and Controls businesses. As 60% owner, Cameron is managing the venture and reflecting a noncontrolling interest in its financial statements for Schlumberger’s 40% interest in the venture.
Now established, OneSubsea is a leading provider of subsea production systems, subsea processing, controls, manifolds & wellheads. Furthermore, OneSubsea has an extensive service offering that spans all phases of production over the full life of the field.

Market Issues
Cameron is one of the leaders in the global market for the supply of petroleum production equipment. Cameron believes that it is well-positioned to serve these markets. Plant and service center facilities around the world in major oil and gas producing regions provide broad market coverage. Information relating to revenues generated from shipments to various geographic regions of the world is set forth on page 29 of “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Cameron International Corporation” incorporated by reference in Part II, Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and incorporated herein by reference.
The success of hydraulic fracturing activities in recent periods has led to increased supplies of natural gas in North America which has driven down prices. As a result, operations have begun to shift more to liquid plays such as the Bakken and Eagle Ford shale regions. The increased supplies of fossil fuels in North America resulting from these new exploration and production technologies, as well as a curtailment in demand as a result of economic conditions and energy saving and alternative energy initiatives, have led some organizations to forecast that North America could eventually become a net exporter of oil and natural gas. The success of these activities has also led to a heightened focus by government regulators which could impede the use of these new technologies or increase their cost in the future.
As a result of tighter regulations for the industry and an increased focus on safety, the Company has experienced increased demand, as described above, in its drilling aftermarket business to service and, in many cases, re-certify existing BOP stacks back to original OEM specifications. The Company believes this trend by operators to use OEM’s to service their equipment will continue in the near future.
The market beyond North America continues to be of greater importance to Cameron, accounting for approximately 61% of Cameron’s revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013, up from 55% in 2012. The desire to expand oil and gas resources and transmission capacity in developed and developing countries, for both economic and political reasons, continues to be a major factor affecting market demand. Production and service facilities in North and South America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and West Africa provide the Company with the ability to serve the global marketplace.
Based upon the Company’s broad portfolio of products, Cameron has a significant presence in the offshore oil and gas drilling, production and infrastructure market. The Company provides BOPs, drilling and production risers, subsea production systems, oil and gas separation equipment, chokes, valves and compression equipment to the offshore market. In fact, six of the Company’s divisions participate in this market. Approximately 44% of the Company’s 2013 revenue was derived from the deepwater market.
Cameron is also a significant participant, through its OneSubsea venture with Schlumberger, in serving the subsea systems projects market. This market is significantly different from the Company’s other markets since subsea systems projects are significantly larger in scope and complexity, in terms of both technical and logistical requirements. Subsea projects (i) typically involve long lead times, (ii) typically are larger in financial scope, (iii) typically require substantial engineering resources to meet the technical requirements of the project and (iv) often involve the application of existing technology to new environments and in some cases, new technology. The Company’s OneSubsea business received orders of nearly $3.7 billion during 2013. Total backlog for OneSubsea at December 31, 2013 was almost $4.4 billion, of which approximately $3.0 billion was for subsea systems projects. To the extent the Company experiences unplanned difficulties in meeting the technical and/or delivery requirements of the projects or has difficulty fully integrating the businesses contributed by Schlumberger to OneSubsea into its operations, the Company’s earnings or liquidity could be negatively impacted. For additional information, see the Company’s “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Cameron International Corporation” incorporated by reference in Part II, Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and incorporated herein by reference.
The creation of OneSubsea in 2013 allows the Company to bring together Schlumberger’s expertise in subsea processing and platform integration with Cameron’s capabilities in subsea equipment to provide customers with the ability to greatly increase their subsea reservoir recovery rates.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The information set forth under the caption “Factors That May Affect Financial Condition and Future Results” on pages 45 to 49 in the 2013 Annual Report to Stockholders is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
There were no unresolved comments from the SEC staff at the time of filing of this Form 10-K.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company manufactures, markets and sells its products and provides services throughout the world, operating facilities in numerous countries ranging in size from approximately 200 square feet to approximately 1,100,000 square feet. In addition to its manufacturing facilities, the Company also owns and leases warehouses, distribution centers, aftermarket and storage facilities, sales and administrative offices. The Company leases its corporate headquarters office space and headquarters space for the staff of certain of its segments and divisions in Houston, Texas.
The table below shows the number of significant operating manufacturing, warehouse, distribution and aftermarket facilities and sales and administrative offices by business segment and geographic area at December 31, 2013. DPS and V&M share space in certain facilities and, thus, are being reported together.
The Company’s operations in the “Americas” are mainly located in North and South America. The Company’s operations in the “Asia/Pacific and Middle East” region are mainly located on the Asian continent, in countries considered to be on the Pacific rim of the Asian continent or in the area of the world commonly known as the “Middle East”. The Company’s operations in “Europe/Africa/Caspian/Russia” are mainly located in the United Kingdom, Norway, on the European continent, in Angola, Algeria, Nigeria, Russia and areas surrounding the Caspian Sea.
Cameron believes its facilities are suitable for their present and intended purposes and are adequate for the Company’s current and anticipated level of operations.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is subject to a number of contingencies, including litigation, tax contingencies and environmental matters.
Litigation
The Company also has been and continues to be named as a defendant in a number of multi-defendant, multi-plaintiff tort lawsuits. At December 31, 2013, the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet included a liability of approximately $14.8 million for such cases. The Company believes, based on its review of the facts and law, that the potential exposure from these suits will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
Tax and Other Contingencies
The Company has legal entities in over 50 countries. As a result, the Company is subject to various tax filing requirements in these countries. The Company prepares its tax filings in a manner which it believes is consistent with such filing requirements. However, some of the tax laws and regulations to which the Company is subject require interpretation and/or judgment. Although the Company believes the tax liabilities for periods ending on or before the balance sheet date have been adequately provided for in the financial statements, to the extent a taxing authority believes the Company has not prepared its tax filings in accordance with the authority’s interpretation of the tax laws and regulations, the Company could be exposed to additional taxes.
The Company has been assessed customs duties and penalties by the government of Brazil totaling almost $50.0 million at December 31, 2013, including interest accrued at local country rates, following a customs audit for the years 2003-2010. The Company filed an administrative appeal and believes a majority of this assessment will ultimately be proven to be incorrect because of numerous errors in the assessment, and because the government has not provided appropriate supporting documentation for the assessment. As a result, the Company currently expects no material adverse impact on its results of operations or cash flows as a result of the ultimate resolution of this matter. No amounts have been accrued for this assessment as of December 31, 2013 as no loss is currently considered probable.
Environmental Matters
The Company is currently identified as a potentially responsible party (PRP) with respect to two sites designated for cleanup under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) or similar state laws. One of these sites is Osborne, Pennsylvania (a landfill into which a predecessor of the PCS operation in Grove City, Pennsylvania deposited waste), where remediation was completed in 2011 and remaining costs relate to ongoing ground water monitoring. The other is believed to be a de minimis exposure. The Company is also engaged in site cleanup under the Voluntary Cleanup Plan of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality at former manufacturing locations in Houston and Missouri City, Texas. Additionally, the Company has discontinued operations at a number of other sites which had been active for many years and which may have yet undiscovered contamination. The Company does not believe, based upon information currently available, that there are any material environmental liabilities existing at these locations. At December 31, 2013, the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet included a noncurrent liability of approximately $3.2 million for these environmental matters.
In 2001, the Company discovered that contaminated underground water from the former manufacturing site in Houston referenced above had migrated under an adjacent residential area. Pursuant to applicable state regulations, the Company notified the affected homeowners. Concerns over the impact on property values of the underground water contamination and its public disclosure led to a number of claims by homeowners. The Company has settled these claims, primarily as a result of the settlement of a class action lawsuit, and is obligated to reimburse approximately 190 homeowners for any diminution in value of their property due to contamination concerns at the time of the property’s sale. Test results of monitoring wells on the southeastern border of the plume indicate that the plume is moving in a new direction, likely as a result of a ground water drainage system completed as part of an interstate highway improvement project. As a result, the Company notified 39 additional homeowners, and may provide notice to additional homeowners, whose property is adjacent to the class area that their property may be affected. The Company is reviewing whether additional remedial measures are appropriate. The Company believes, based on its review of the facts and law, that any potential exposure from existing agreements as well as any possible new claims that may be filed with respect to this underground water contamination will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations. The Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet included a liability of approximately $7.1 million for these matters as of December 31, 2013.
The Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012
The Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012, passed by the United States Congress and signed into law in August 2012, requires companies to report certain prohibited activities or conduct that were knowingly engaged in by the company or any of its affiliates involving Iran or other parties named therein. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company had no such activities or conduct to report.

(a) The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Sarbanes-Oxley Disclosure Committee and the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of December 31, 2013. In conducting management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, the businesses contributed by Schlumberger in connection with the formation of OneSubsea and Douglas Chero, acquired in 2013, were excluded. Excluding goodwill, these operations accounted for less than 15% of total and net assets as of December 31, 2013 and less than 5% of the Company’s consolidated revenues and income before income taxes for the year then ended. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2013 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting - The report of management of the Company regarding internal control over financial reporting is set forth in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K under the caption “Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting” and incorporated herein by reference.
(c) Attestation Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm - The attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting is set forth in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K under the caption “Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” and incorporated herein by reference.
(d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting - Other than the October 2013 conversion of a substantial portion of the operations within the V&M segment to the Company’s upgraded business information systems, there were no changes made in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
