Operator: Good day and welcome to the Core Laboratories Third Quarter 2023 Earnings Conference Call. [Operator instructions] After today's presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. Please note this event is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to Larry Bruno, Chairman and CEO of Core Laboratories. Please go ahead.

Larry Bruno: Thanks, Merlis. Good morning in the Americas, good afternoon in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, and good evening in Asia Pacific. We'd like to welcome all of our shareholders, analysts, and most importantly, our employees to Core Laboratories third quarter 2023 earnings call. This morning I'm joined by Chris Hill, Core's Chief Financial Officer; and Gwen Gresham, Core's Senior Vice President and Head of Investor Relations. The call will be divided into six segments. Gwen will start by making remarks regarding forward-looking statements, we'll then have some opening comments including a high-level review of important factors in Core's Q3 performance. In addition, we'll review Core's strategies and the three financial tenets that the company employs to build long-term shareholder value.

I'll then review Core's two operating segments, detailing our progress, and discussing the continued successful introduction and deployment of Core Lab’s technologies, as well as highlighting some of Core’s operations and major projects worldwide. Then we'll open the phones for Q&A session. I'll now turn the call over to Gwen for remarks on forward-looking statements.

Gwen Gresham: Before we start the conference this morning, I'll mention that some of the statements that we make during this call may include projections, estimates, and other forward-looking information. This would include any discussion of the company's business outlook. These types of forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to materially differ from our forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties are discussed in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K as well as other reports and registration statements filed by us with the SEC. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Our comments also include non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the press release announcing our third quarter results. Those non-GAAP measures can also be found on our website. With that said, I'll pass a discussion back to Larry.
