     Item 5.  Other Events.

     On June 15, 1995, Baker Hughes Incorporated ("BHI")
repurchased 4,000,000 shares of its Convertible Preferred stock
with a face value of $200 million, previously issued to Sonat Inc.
in connection with the acquisition of Teleco Oilfield Services,
Inc. by BHI from Sonat Inc. for a purchase price of $167 million in
cash funded from cash on hand and additional borrowings.  The
estimated fair market value of the 4,000,000 shares of Convertible
Preferred Stock was $149.4 million at the date of acquisition
(April 1992).  The repurchase price in excess of this amount($17.6
million), will be deducted from net income in arriving at net
income per share of common stock in the quarter ending June 30,
1995.  The $17.6 million excess equates to $.12 per share of common
stock.
