Abstract: We study inclusive b-hadron production in pp collisions at the LHC at different center-of-mass energies and compare with experimental data from the LHCb and CMS collaborations. Our predictions for cross sections differential in the transverse momentum and (pseudo-)rapidity agree with data within uncertainties due to renormalization scale variations. However, our calculations support the observation that the anomalous behaviour of the ratio of cross sections for center of mass energies at 7 and 13 TeV as observed by the LHCb collaboration is unlikely to be compatible with theory predictions.
