Nabors Industries Ltd. ("Nabors") (NYSE:NBR) reported third-quarter operating revenues of $848 million, compared to $863 million in the second quarter of 2015, and $1.81 billion in the third quarter of last year.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) was the world's sixth-largest oil producer in 2014, and the second-largest producer of petroleum and other liquids in the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), behind only Saudi Arabia.
