NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Schlumberger Limited and its subsidiaries (“Schlumberger”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of Schlumberger management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement have been included in the accompanying unaudited financial statements.  All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.  Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2019.  The December 31, 2018 balance sheet information has been derived from the Schlumberger 2018 audited financial statements.  For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Schlumberger Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 23, 2019.   

2.   Charges and Credits

2019

There were no charges or credits recorded during the first six months of 2019.

2018

During the second quarter of 2018, Schlumberger recorded a $184 million pretax charge ($164 million after-tax) associated with headcount reductions, primarily to further streamline its support cost structure.  This charge is classified in Impairments & other in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

There were no charges or credits recorded during the first quarter of 2018.

In April 2019, Schlumberger completed a debt exchange offer, pursuant to which it issued $1.500 billion in principal of 3.90% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “New Notes”) in exchange for $401 million of 3.00% Senior Notes due 2020, $234 million of 3.63% Senior Notes due 2022 and $817 million of 4.00% Senior Notes due 2025.  In connection with the exchange of principal, Schlumberger paid a premium of $48 million, substantially all of which was in the form of New Notes.  This premium is being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the New Notes.

The estimated fair value of Schlumberger’s Long-term Debt, based on quoted market prices at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, was $17.4 billion and $14.6 billion, respectively.

At June 30, 2019, Schlumberger had separate committed credit facility agreements aggregating $6.5 billion with commercial banks, of which $3.3 billion was available and unused.   These committed facilities support commercial paper programs in the United States and Europe, of which $1.0 billion matures in February 2020,  $1.5 billion matures in November 2020, $2.0 billion matures in February 2023 and $2.0 billion matures in February 2024.  Interest rates and other terms of borrowing under these lines of credit vary by facility.

Borrowings under Schlumberger’s commercial paper programs at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $3.2 billion and $2.4 billion, respectively, all of which were classified in Long-term Debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

9.   Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Schlumberger is exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.  To mitigate these risks, Schlumberger utilizes derivative instruments.  Schlumberger does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

Schlumberger is subject to interest rate risk on its debt and its investment portfolio.  Schlumberger maintains an interest rate risk management strategy that uses a mix of variable and fixed rate debt combined with its investment portfolio, and occasionally interest rate swaps, to mitigate the exposure to changes in interest rates.  

During 2017, a Canadian-dollar functional currency subsidiary of Schlumberger issued $1.1 billion of US-dollar denominated debt.  Schlumberger entered into cross-currency swaps for an aggregate notional amount of $1.1 billion in order to hedge changes in the fair value of its $0.5 billion 2.20% Senior Notes due 2020 and its $0.6 billion 2.65% Senior Notes due 2022. These cross-currency swaps effectively convert the US-dollar notes to Canadian-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 1.97% and 2.52%, respectively.

These cross-currency swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. The changes in the fair values of the hedges are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. Amounts recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss are reclassified to earnings in the same periods that the underlying hedged item is recognized in earnings.

At June 30, 2019, Schlumberger had fixed rate debt aggregating $13.5 billion and variable rate debt aggregating $3.6 billion, after taking into account the effect of interest rate swaps.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

As a multinational company, Schlumberger generates revenue in more than 120 countries. Schlumberger’s functional currency is primarily the US dollar.  However, outside the United States, a significant portion of Schlumberger’s expenses are incurred in foreign currencies.  Therefore, when the US dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the foreign currencies of the countries in which Schlumberger conducts business, the US dollar-reported expenses will increase (decrease).  

Schlumberger is exposed to risks on future cash flows to the extent that the local currency is not the functional currency and expenses denominated in local currency are not equal to revenues denominated in local currency.  Schlumberger is also exposed to risks on future cash flows relating to certain of its fixed rate debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.  Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts to provide a hedge against a portion of these cash flow risks.  These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with the changes in the fair value of the hedge recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.  Amounts recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss are reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods that the hedged item is recognized in earnings.  

Schlumberger is exposed to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.  While Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options to economically hedge this exposure as it relates to certain currencies, these contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes.  Instead, the fair value of the contracts is recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and changes in the fair value are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income as are changes in fair value of the hedged item.

At June 30, 2019, contracts were outstanding for the US dollar equivalent of $4.4 billion in various foreign currencies, of which $1.1 billion relates to hedges of debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.

At June 30, 2019, Schlumberger recognized a cumulative $13 million loss in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss relating to the revaluation of foreign currency forward contracts, cross-currency swaps and changes in the fair value of interest-rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges.

10.   Contingencies

Schlumberger is party to various legal proceedings from time to time.  A liability is accrued when a loss is both probable and can be reasonably estimated.  Management believes that the probability of a material loss with respect to any currently pending legal proceeding is remote.  However, litigation is inherently uncertain and it is not possible to predict the ultimate disposition of any of these proceedings.

Second-quarter revenue of $8.3 billion increased 5% sequentially with North America revenue of $2.8 billion increasing 2% while international revenue of $5.5 billion increased 8%.

International revenue growth of 8% sequentially, was led by the Europe/CIS/Africa area, where revenue increased sequentially by 11% driven by activity that strengthened beyond the seasonal recovery in the Russia & Central Asia and United Kingdom & Continental Europe GeoMarkets. Sequential international growth was also driven by a 19% improvement in the Far East Asia & Australia GeoMarket and a 12% increase in the Latin America area, while revenue in the Middle East region grew 3%.

North America revenue improved 2% sequentially, driven by a 10% sequential increase in offshore revenue from stronger exploration-led activity driven mainly by WesternGeco^® multiclient seismic license sales. North America land revenue increased 1% sequentially despite the impact of the spring breakup in Canada, as OneStim^® activity was higher offset by weak hydraulic fracturing pricing and a general decrease in drilling activity.

From a macro perspective, Schlumberger expects oil market sentiments to remain balanced. The oil demand forecast for 2019 has been reduced slightly on trade war fears and current global geopolitical tensions, but Schlumberger does not anticipate a change in the structural demand outlook for the mid-term. On the supply side, Schlumberger continues to see US shale oil as the only near- to medium-term source of global production growth, albeit at a slowing growth rate, as exploration & production (E&P) operators continue to transition from an emphasis on growth to a focus on cash and returns, with consequent restraining effects on investment levels. These effects, combined with the decision by OPEC and Russia to extend production cuts through the first quarter of 2020, are likely to keep oil prices range bound around present levels. Although the markets are well supplied from production added by projects that were sanctioned before 2015, this added supply will begin to fall in 2020 and create risk for the future as the decline rates in many mature production basins become an increasingly significant challenge. In addition, while the number of new projects Schlumberger expects to receive final investment decision approval in 2019 is likely to increase again for the fourth consecutive year, their size and number account for supply additions far below the required global annual production replacement rates. Schlumberger therefore maintains its view that international E&P investment will grow 7% to 8% in 2019, further supported by the increase in international rig count. In contrast, spending in North America land is tracking Schlumberger's expectations of a 10% decline this year.

Reservoir Characterization

Reservoir Characterization revenue of $1.6 billion increased 7% sequentially due to higher activity beyond the seasonal rebounds from winter in the Northern Hemisphere. Growth was driven by higher offshore exploration activity internationally benefiting Wireline and Testing Services. The increase in Reservoir Characterization revenue was also driven by higher WesternGeco multiclient seismic license sales in the Mexico Bay of Campeche and the US Gulf of Mexico.

Reservoir Characterization pretax operating margin of 20% was 81 basis points (bps) higher sequentially due to the seasonal recovery in higher-margin Wireline activity and stronger WesternGeco multiclient seismic license sales.

Drilling

Drilling revenue of $2.4 billion increased 1% sequentially. Stronger international activity beyond the seasonal rebounds in the Northern Hemisphere was supported by the international rig count increase of 6%, but growth was offset by reduced shale drilling activity in North America land as the US land rig count declined 5%. International growth was driven by higher activity benefiting M-I SWACO and Drilling & Measurements.

Drilling pretax operating margin of 12% declined 45 bps sequentially as margin improvements internationally for Drilling & Measurements and M-I SWACO were more than offset by lower margins from Integrated Drilling Services (IDS) projects in the Middle East region.

Production

Production revenue of $3.1 billion increased 6% sequentially driven primarily by higher international activity for Well Services. Increased artificial lift sales across the international areas, higher intelligent completions activity in Saudi Arabia, and increased Schlumberger Production Management (SPM) project activity mainly in Ecuador, all contributed to the increase in Production revenue. In North America land, despite the impact of the spring breakup in Canada, Production revenue was up 3% sequentially driven by higher cementing activity and improved OneStim hydraulic fracturing fleet utilization on increased market demand. These effects, however, were partially offset by softer hydraulic fracturing pricing.

Production pretax operating margin of 8% was essentially flat sequentially as the improvement in international margin from higher activity was offset by the effects of pricing pressure in North America land.

Cameron

Cameron revenue of $1.2 billion increased 5% sequentially driven by higher international revenue for OneSubsea, Surface Systems, and Drilling Systems. By geography, international revenue grew 24% sequentially while North America revenue was essentially flat.

Cameron pretax operating margin of 13% increased 94 bps sequentially primarily due to improved profitability in OneSubsea and Surface Systems.

Second-quarter 2019 revenue of $8.3 billion was essentially flat year-on-year as North America revenue declined 11% year-on-year, while international revenue increased by 8%. These results reflect the normalization in global E&P spend that Schlumberger anticipated as international investment increased in response to the accelerating decline in the mature production base, and North America land investment decreased due to E&P operator cash flow constraints.

Reservoir Characterization

Second-quarter 2019 revenue of $1.6 billion was essentially flat year-on-year. Higher Wireline, Testing, and Software Integrated Solutions revenue from increased international activity was offset by reduced OneSurface project revenue.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 153 bps to 20% primarily due to reduced profitability from OneSurface as projects wound down at the end of 2018.

Drilling

Second-quarter 2019 revenue of $2.4 billion increased 8% year-on-year primarily due to higher demand for drilling services, largely in the international markets that benefited M-I SWACO, IDS, and Drilling & Measurements.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 53 bps to 12% despite higher revenue as margins were affected by competitive pricing, and start-up costs from a number of integrated contracts internationally.

Production

Second-quarter 2019 revenue of $3.1 billion decreased 5% year-on-year with most of the revenue decline attributable to lower OneStim activity in North America as customers reduced spending due to higher cost of capital, lower borrowing capacity and expectation of better returns from their shareholders.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 207 bps to 8% primarily due to reduced profitability in OneStim in North America.

Six-month 2019 revenue of $16.1 billion was essentially flat year-on-year as international revenue increased 6% while North America land revenue declined 12%.  These results reflect the normalization in global E&P spend that Schlumberger anticipated as international investment increases in response to the accelerating decline in the mature production base, and North America land investment decreases due to E&P operator cash flow constraints.

Reservoir Characterization

Six-month 2019 revenue of $3.2 billion was essentially flat year-on-year, driven primarily by higher Wireline and Testing from increased international activity that was offset by reduced OneSurface project revenue and the absence of WesternGeco marine seismic acquisition revenue following the divestiture of this business during the fourth quarter of 2018.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 112 bps to 19% due to lower profitability from OneSurface as projects wound down at the end of 2018.

Drilling

Six-month 2019 revenue of $4.8 billion increased 10% year-on-year primarily due to higher demand for drilling services, largely in the international markets that benefited M-I SWACO, IDS, and Drilling & Measurements.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 71 bps to 13% despite higher revenue  as margins were affected by competitive pricing, and start-up costs from a number of integrated contracts internationally.

21

Production

Six-month 2019 revenue of $6.0 billion decreased 4% year-on-year with most of the revenue decline attributable to lower OneStim activity in North America as customers reduced spending due to higher cost of capital, lower borrowing capacity, and expectation of better returns from their shareholders. This decline was partially offset by higher production revenue internationally, which benefited all other technologies.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 100 bps to 8% primarily due to reduced profitability in OneStim in North America.

Cameron

Six-month 2019 revenue of $2.4 billion decreased 7% year-on-year primarily due to lower revenue for OneSubsea.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 63 bps to 12% primarily due to the reduced profitability in OneSubsea.

^{(1) “}Net debt” represents gross debt less cash and short-term investments.  Management believes that Net debt provides useful information regarding the level of Schlumberger’s indebtedness by reflecting cash and investments that could be used to repay debt.  Net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, total debt.

⁽²⁾ Includes depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets, multiclient seismic data costs and SPM investments.

⁽³⁾ Includes severance payments of approximately $71 million and $160 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

⁽⁴⁾ “Free cash flow” represents cash flow from operations less capital expenditures, SPM investments and multiclient seismic data costs capitalized. Management believes that free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for the company and that it is useful to investors and management as a measure of our ability to generate cash.  Once business needs and obligations are met, this cash can be used to reinvest in the company for future growth or to return to shareholders through dividend payments or share repurchases.  Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures.  Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that should be considered in addition to, not as substitute for or superior to, cash flow from operations.

Key liquidity events during the first six months of 2019 and 2018 included:

• On January 21, 2016, the Board approved a $10 billion share repurchase program for Schlumberger common stock.  Schlumberger had repurchased $922 million of Schlumberger common stock under this program as of June 30, 2019.

The following table summarizes the activity under the share repurchase program:

(Stated in millions, except per share amounts)
	Total cost		Total number		Average price
	of shares		of shares		paid per
	purchased		purchased		share
Six months ended June 30, 2019	$	199		4.8	$	41.40
Six months ended June 30, 2018	$	200		2.9	$	69.10

• Capital expenditures were $0.8 billion during the first six months of 2019 compared to $1.0 billion during the first six months of 2018.  Capital expenditures for full-year 2019 are expected to be approximately $1.5 billion to $1.7 billion as compared to $2.2 billion in 2018.

• During the first quarter of 2019, Schlumberger issued $750 million of 3.75% Senior Notes due 2024 and $850 million of 4.30% Senior Notes due 2029.

Schlumberger generates revenue in more than 120 countries.   As of June 30, 2019, four of those countries individually accounted for greater than 5% of Schlumberger’s net receivables balance, of which only the United States accounted for greater than 10% of such receivables.

As of June 30, 2019, Schlumberger had $2.3 billion of cash and short-term investments on hand.  Schlumberger had separate committed debt facility agreements aggregating $6.5 billion that support commercial paper programs, of which $3.3 billion was available and unused.  Schlumberger believes these amounts are sufficient to meet future business requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Borrowings under the commercial paper programs at June 30, 2019 were $3.2 billion.

Certain non-US subsidiaries of Schlumberger maintain depository accounts at the Dubai branch of Bank Saderat Iran (“Saderat”), and at Bank Tejarat (“Tejarat”) in Tehran and in Kish for the deposit by NIOC of amounts owed to non-US subsidiaries of Schlumberger for prior services rendered in Iran and for the maintenance of such amounts previously received. One non-US subsidiary also maintained an account at Tejarat for payment of local expenses such as taxes. Schlumberger anticipates that it will discontinue dealings with Saderat and Tejarat following the receipt of all amounts owed to Schlumberger for prior services rendered in Iran.

2.Term and Extent of Services:  During the Term, as defined below, Executive shall be employed as Senior Advisor reporting to the Chief Operating Officer.  The term hereof shall commence April 1, 2019 (the “Effective Date”) and shall continue until the close of business on March 31, 2021 (the “Term”).  It is expected that as of, or as soon as practicable following, the beginning of the Term, Executive’s employment shall be transferred to SGRL in its offices in Dubai, and Executive agrees and consents to such relocation and transfer of employment. Unless the context requires otherwise, following Executive’s transfer to SGRL, references to the Company shall be deemed to be references to SGRL. During the Term, Executive agrees to provide advisory services as reasonably requested and the parties currently expect that he will perform services at a mutually agreed level over the course of the Term. At the expiration of the Term, Executive’s employment with the Company and all Affiliates (as defined in Section 4(e) hereof) shall terminate.  For purposes of clarity and the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that Executive is permitted to commence employment with another employer during the Term and such employment shall not cause the Term to end or otherwise cause or result in the compensation and benefits payable to Executive under this Agreement to cease or otherwise be diminished, nor shall it cause Executive’s employment to be deemed terminated under this Agreement, provided that (i) such employer is not one of the “Restricted Companies” as defined in Section 6 hereof, (ii) Executive complies with the notice requirements in Section 6(b), and (iii) such employment does not interfere with Executive’s ability to provide the services during the Term as provided in this Section 2.

(b) Welfare Benefits:  During the Term, Executive and his eligible dependents shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s medical plans applicable to employees in Dubai on a basis comparable to that of other employees consistent with the plan terms.

Following Executive’s voluntary termination at the end of the Term, Executive and his eligible dependents will be eligible to elect coverage under the Deferred Medical Program Free Cover  subject to the terms of the Company’s Plan as such plan may be amended from time to time

(c) Pension and Profit Sharing:  During the Term, Executive will continue to accrue additional benefits under the Company’s qualified and non-qualified pension and profit sharing plans and retiree medical plans, in each case for which Executive is otherwise eligible.

During the Term, Executive will not receive any new grants of long-term incentive awards.  During the Term, or if Executive’s employment is terminated sooner pursuant to Section 4, until such termination, Executive will qualify for special retirement under the company’s long-term incentive award agreements.

(b) Termination Due to Death: In the event Executive’s employment terminates during the Term as a result of Executive’s death, Executive’s beneficiary or beneficiaries shall receive any base salary and benefits accrued but unpaid as of his death, plus any amounts payable on account of Executive’s death pursuant to any other plan or program of the Company.

ii. Executive will return to a Company representative all computers and electronic storage devices including thumb drives, back-up devices, etc. that contain Company information.  To the extent that Executive owns electronic devices that contain Company information (e.g. personal computers, phones or home computers), Executive agrees to allow access to such devices to Company IT personnel to remove the Company information.  To the extent Company-owned electronic devices contain Executive personal information, Executive and Company agree to cooperate in the removal or copying of the personal information to a separate device for Executive.  Executive agrees to sign an inventory of the devices returned and steps taken to remove Company information from Executive personal computers and devices.

6.Covenant Not to Compete, Non-solicitation and Non-disparagement: Executive acknowledges that the skills, processes and information developed at the Company are highly proprietary and global in nature and could be utilized directly and to the Company’s detriment (or the detriment of any of the Company’s Affiliates or ventures) by several other businesses.  Executive also acknowledges that the nature of his duties and responsibilities under the Agreement will bring him into close contact with much of the Company’s Confidential Information, and the Company has affirmatively agreed to provide him with Confidential Information.  Accordingly, for the consideration provided to Executive in this Agreement, Executive agrees to be bound by the following restrictive covenants:

(a) During the period of the Term, herein referred to as the “Restricted Period”, Executive shall not accept employment with or render services or otherwise become involved either directly or indirectly, on his own behalf or on behalf of any other person, firm or company, in any capacity throughout the world (whether as agent, consultant, director, employee, owner, partner, shareholder or in any other capacity) in the following organizations’ operations or business, which organizations are herein referred to as the “Restricted Companies”:

1) Baker Hughes, a GE company

2) Halliburton Company

3) Weatherford International Limited

4) National Oilwell Varco (NOV)

5) OilServ

6) any North American land oilfield services company in which more than 50% of its gross revenue is derived from hydraulic fracturing services,

6

7) any of the aforementioned companies, affiliated companies of joint ventures, where that affiliated company or joint venture company is principally engaged in any oilfield-services related business, and/or

8) any entity that is acquired by or a successor to any of the aforementioned companies.

(b) In the event that, during the Restricted Period, Executive becomes engaged or employed (in any form described above) by an organization or business inside the oil & gas industry that is not one of the Restricted Companies listed above, Executive shall give the Company advance notice of his accepting employment in any capacity.  Notice of any subsequent employment shall be in writing and must be received by the Chief Executive Officer, at 5599 San Felipe, Houston, TX  77056 on behalf of the Company at least thirty (30) days before the proposed starting date of the employment.  The request must include the full name and address of the organization with which Executive is seeking employment, the department or area in which Executive proposes to work, the position or job title to be held by Executive, and a complete description of the duties Executive expects to perform for such employer.  

(c) In the event the organization of business in which Executive is involved (in any form described above) becomes a Restricted Company during the Restricted Period, or is acquired during the Restricted Period by one of the Restricted Companies, Executive shall provide written notice of the same immediately to the Chief Executive Officer, as soon as the information is ready to be made public.

(d) Moreover, during the Restricted Period, Executive shall not directly or indirectly, on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any person or entity, recruit, hire, solicit, or assist others in recruiting, hiring, or soliciting any person, who is, at the time of the recruiting, hiring, or solicitation, an employee, consultant, or contractor of the Company to leave the Company, diminish their relationship with the Company, or work for a competing business. This restriction shall be limited to persons: (1) with whom Executive had contact or business dealings while employed by Company; (2) who worked in Executive’s business unit (Group); or (3) about whom Executive had access to confidential information.  In the event of breach by the Executive, the specified period will be extended by the period of time of the breach.

(e) Executive agrees that these restrictions are reasonable in light of the   consideration given.  Executive was given an opportunity to review these restrictions, advised to consult with an attorney, and agreed to these restrictions in exchange for the Company’s provision of confidential information and its agreement to pay the additional consideration described in Section 3.  The Company is relying on Executive’s commitment to comply with the restrictions set forth in this Section 6 in agreeing to pay the

7

consideration set forth in Section 3 and this commitment is ancillary to the Executive’s agreement to protect the Company’s confidential information.  Executive acknowledges that in the event of a breach by Executive of these restrictive covenants, the covenants may be enforced by temporary restraining order, preliminary or temporary injunction and permanent injunction, in addition to any other remedies that may be available by law. In that connection, Executive acknowledges that in the event of a breach, the Company will suffer irreparable injury for which there is no adequate legal remedy, in part because damages caused by the breach may be difficult to prove with any reasonable degree of certainty.  Executive further agrees that in the event that (1) the Company determines that Executive has breached any term of Section 6 or (2) all or any part or of Section 6 is held or found invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever by a court of competent jurisdiction in an action between Executive and the Company, in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity the Company may have available to it, the Company may immediately stop payment of any future amounts due pursuant to Section 3 and may in its sole discretion require that Executive repay to the Company, within five business days of receipt of written demand therefor, an amount equal to the payments or benefits received by Executive pursuant to Section 3.

7.Expenses:  The Company and Executive shall each be responsible for its/his own costs and expenses, including, without limitation, court costs and attorney’s fees, incurred as a result of any claim, action or proceeding arising out of, or challenging the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement or any provisions hereof.

8.Indemnification:  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall hold harmless and fully indemnify Executive against any and all liabilities incurred by or for him in connection with any threatened, pending or completed claim, action, suit, investigation or proceeding of any kind to which Executive is made a party or otherwise subjected to by reason of his status as an employee or officer of the Company or its Affiliates (whether Executive is, becomes or may become a party, a witness or otherwise is a participant in any role), other than any action brought in a dispute between the Company and Executive relating to his employment or his post-employment restrictive covenants.  For all matters for which Executive is entitled to indemnification hereunder, Executive shall be entitled to advancement of all expenses (including legal fees) in connection therewith, subject to his execution of an undertaking to repay any amounts so advanced to the extent it is finally determined that he was not entitled to such indemnification under applicable law.

8

9.Notices:  For purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered or when mailed by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed (except as set forth in Section 6 (b) hereof) as follows:

or to such other address as either party may furnish to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notices of changes of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

10.Applicable Law; Venue:  The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement will be governed exclusively by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Texas, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws of such state. Any suit, action or other legal proceeding arising out of this Agreement shall be brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, or, if such court does not have jurisdiction or will not accept jurisdiction, in any court of general jurisdiction in Harris County, Texas. Each of Executive and the Company consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action, or proceeding and waives any objection that it may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding in any such court.

11.Severability:  Any provision in this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction by reason of applicable law shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating or affecting the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

12.Withholding of Taxes:  The Company may withhold from any benefits payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city or other taxes as may be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling.

13. No Assignment; Successors:  Executive’s right to receive payments or benefits hereunder shall not be assignable or transferable, whether by pledge, creation, or a security interest or otherwise, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, other than a transfer by will or by the laws of descent or distribution, and in the event of any attempted assignment or transfer contrary to this Section 13, the Company shall have no liability to pay any amount so attempted to be assigned or transferred.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributes, devises and legatees.

15.Release of Claims:  In consideration for the compensation and other benefits provided pursuant to this Agreement, Executive agrees to execute a “Waiver and Release,” a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.  Executive acknowledges that he was given copies of this Agreement and the Waiver and Release on March 7, 2019 and was given at least 21 days to consider whether to sign the Agreement and the Waiver and Release.  The Company’s obligations under this Agreement are expressly conditioned on the execution of the Waiver and Release contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, no payments will be provided hereunder until the Waiver and Release is executed and delivered, and Executive’s failure to execute and deliver such Waiver and Release, or Executive’s revocation of the Waiver and Release within the seven day period provided in the Release, will void the Company’s obligations hereunder.

16.Section 409A Compliance:

(a) If Executive is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, and the regulations thereunder, to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code, any payments otherwise payable on account of the Executive’s separation from service which are deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code shall not commence until one day after the day which is six (6) months from the date of termination.

Exhibit A

SCHLUMBERGER LIMITED

WAIVER AND RELEASE

Schlumberger Limited has offered to pay me certain benefits (“Benefits”) pursuant to my Employment Agreement with Schlumberger Limited, effective as of April 1, 2019(the “Effective Date”), which are in addition to any remuneration or benefits to which I am already entitled.  These Benefits were offered to me in exchange for my agreement, among other things, to waive all of my claims against and release Schlumberger Limited and its predecessors, successors and assigns (collectively referred to as the “Company”), all of the affiliates (including parents and subsidiaries) of the Company and Schlumberger Limited, the ultimate parent of the Company, (collectively referred to as the “Affiliates”) and the Company’s and Affiliates’ directors and officers, employees and agents, employee benefit plans and the fiduciaries and agents of said plans (collectively, with the Company and Affiliates, referred to as the “Corporate Group”) from any and all claims, demands, actions, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating in any way to my employment with or separation from the Company or the Affiliates; provided, however, that this Waiver and Release shall not apply to any claim or cause of action to enforce or interpret any provision contained in the Agreement.  I have read this Waiver and Release and the Agreement (which, together, are referred to herein as the “Agreement Materials”) and the Agreement is incorporated herein by reference.  The provision of the Benefits is voluntary on the part of the Company and is not required by any legal obligation other than the Agreement.  I choose to accept this offer.

I understand that signing this Waiver and Release is an important legal act.  I acknowledge that the Company has advised me in writing to consult an attorney before signing this Waiver and Release.  I understand that, in order to be eligible for Benefits, I must sign and return to Pat Strong, HR Manager, Schlumberger Limited, 5599 San Felipe, 17th Floor, Houston, TX 77056) this Waiver and Release by 5 p.m. on March 28, 2019.I acknowledge that I have been given at least 21 days to consider whether to sign the Agreement and whether to execute this Waiver and Release, and that no Benefits will be paid or provided to me until I execute this Waiver and Release and deliver it to the Company.

In exchange for the payment to me of Benefits, which are in addition to any remuneration or benefits to which I am already entitled, I, among other things, (1) agree never to institute, maintain or prosecute, or induce or assist in the instigation, commencement, maintenance or prosecution of any action, suit, proceeding or administrative charge in any forum regarding or relating in any way to my employment with or separation from the Company or the Affiliates, and (2) knowingly and voluntarily waive all claims and release the Corporate Group from any and all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, and damages, whether known or unknown, arising out of or relating in any way to my employment with or separation from the Company or the Affiliates, except to the extent that my rights are vested under the terms of employee benefit plans sponsored by the Company or the Affiliates and except with respect to such rights or claims as may arise after the date this Waiver

A-1

and Release is executed.  This Waiver and Release includes, but is not limited to, claims and causes of action under:  Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended (“Title VII”); the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, including the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990 (“ADEA’’); the Civil Rights Act of 1866, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (“ADA”); the Energy Reorganization Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 5851; the Workers Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988; the Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Occupational Safety and Health Act; claims in connection with workers’ compensation; and/or contract, tort, defamation, slander, wrongful termination or any other state or federal regulatory, statutory or common law.  Further, I expressly represent that no promise or agreement which is not expressed in the Agreement Materials has been made to me in executing this Waiver and Release, and that I am relying on my own judgment in executing this Waiver and Release, and that I am not relying on any statement or representation of the Company, any of the Affiliates or any other member of the Corporate Group or any of their agents.  I agree that this Waiver and Release is valid, fair, adequate and reasonable, is with my full knowledge and consent, was not procured through fraud, duress or mistake and has not had the effect of misleading, misinforming or failing to inform me.  Notwithstanding the above, nothing in this Agreement is intended to (i) release or affect in any way any board resolution or by-law of the Company or other agreement between me and the Company which may provide for indemnity and/or director and officer insurance coverage relating to any potential claim against me arising out of my role as an officer and employee of the Company (ii) release or affect in any way any claims arising under the Agreement, (iii) prevent me from filing a complaint with, providing information to, or testifying or otherwise assisting in any investigation or proceeding brought by any state, federal or local regulatory or law enforcement agency or legislative body, or (iv) prevent me from filing any claims that are not permitted to be waived or released under applicable law. However, I further agree and covenant that I will not seek or accept any personal, equitable or monetary relief from the Corporate Group in any action, suit, proceeding or administrative charge filed on my behalf by any person, organization or other entity against the Corporate Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, I understand and the Company agrees, that nothing in the Agreement or this Waiver and Release prohibits me from reporting to any governmental authority information concerning possible violations of law or regulation, making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation or receiving an award for information provided to any government agency. This Agreement and the Waiver and Release do not limit my right to receive an award for information provided to any governmental agencies. Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, I understand that I will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of any secret or confidential information that (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

A-2

I acknowledge that payment of Benefits to me by the Company is not an admission by the Company or any other member of the Corporate Group that they engaged in any wrongful or unlawful act or that the Company or any member of the Corporate Group violated any federal or state law or regulation.  Except as provided in the Agreement Materials, I acknowledge that neither the Company nor any other member of the Corporate Group has promised me continued employment or represented to me that I will be rehired in the future.   I acknowledge that the Company and I contemplate an unequivocal, complete and final dissolution of my employment relationship following the Term (as defined in the Agreement).  I acknowledge that this Waiver and Release does not create any right on my part to be rehired by the Company or the Affiliates and I hereby waive any right to future employment by the Company or any other member of the Corporate Group.

Should any of the provisions set forth in this Waiver and Release be determined to be invalid by a court, agency or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction, it is agreed that such determination shall not affect the enforceability of other provisions of this Waiver and Release.  I acknowledge that this Waiver and Release and the other Agreement Materials set forth the entire understanding and agreement between me and the Company or any other member of the Corporate Group concerning the subject matter of this Waiver and Release and supersede any prior or contemporaneous oral and/or written agreements or representations, if any, between me and the Company or any other member of the Corporate Group.  I understand that for a period of 7 calendar days following the date that I sign this Waiver and Release, I may revoke my acceptance of the offer, provided that my written statement of revocation is received on or before that seventh day by Pat Strong, HR Manager, in which case the Waiver and Release will not become effective.  In the event I revoke my acceptance of this offer, the Company shall have no obligation to provide me Benefits.  I understand that failure to revoke my acceptance of the offer within 7 calendar days from the date I sign this Waiver and Release will result in this Waiver and Release being permanent and irrevocable.

I acknowledge that I have read this Waiver and Release, have had an opportunity to ask questions and have it explained to me and that I understand that this Waiver and Release will have the effect of knowingly and voluntarily waiving any action I might pursue, including breach of contract, personal injury, retaliation, discrimination on the basis of race, age, sex, national origin, or disability and any other claims arising prior to the date of this Waiver and Release.  By execution of this document, I do not waive or release or otherwise relinquish any legal rights I may have which are attributable to or arise out of acts, omissions, or events of the Company or any other member of the Corporate Group which occur after the date of the execution of this Waiver and Release.

In April 2019, Schlumberger completed a debt exchange offer, pursuant to which it issued $1.500 billion in principal of 3.90% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “New Notes”) in exchange for $401 million of 3.00% Senior Notes due 2020, $234 million of 3.63% Senior Notes due 2022 and $817 million of 4.00% Senior Notes due 2025.  In connection with the exchange of principal, Schlumberger paid a premium of $48 million, substantially all of which was in the form of New Notes.  This premium is being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the New Notes.

The estimated fair value of Schlumberger’s Long-term Debt, based on quoted market prices at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, was $17.4 billion and $14.6 billion, respectively.

At June 30, 2019, Schlumberger had separate committed credit facility agreements aggregating $6.5 billion with commercial banks, of which $3.3 billion was available and unused.   These committed facilities support commercial paper programs in the United States and Europe, of which $1.0 billion matures in February 2020,  $1.5 billion matures in November 2020, $2.0 billion matures in February 2023 and $2.0 billion matures in February 2024.  Interest rates and other terms of borrowing under these lines of credit vary by facility.

Borrowings under Schlumberger’s commercial paper programs at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were $3.2 billion and $2.4 billion, respectively, all of which were classified in Long-term Debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

9.   Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Schlumberger is exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.  To mitigate these risks, Schlumberger utilizes derivative instruments.  Schlumberger does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

Schlumberger is subject to interest rate risk on its debt and its investment portfolio.  Schlumberger maintains an interest rate risk management strategy that uses a mix of variable and fixed rate debt combined with its investment portfolio, and occasionally interest rate swaps, to mitigate the exposure to changes in interest rates.  

During 2017, a Canadian-dollar functional currency subsidiary of Schlumberger issued $1.1 billion of US-dollar denominated debt.  Schlumberger entered into cross-currency swaps for an aggregate notional amount of $1.1 billion in order to hedge changes in the fair value of its $0.5 billion 2.20% Senior Notes due 2020 and its $0.6 billion 2.65% Senior Notes due 2022. These cross-currency swaps effectively convert the US-dollar notes to Canadian-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 1.97% and 2.52%, respectively.

These cross-currency swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. The changes in the fair values of the hedges are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. Amounts recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss are reclassified to earnings in the same periods that the underlying hedged item is recognized in earnings.

At June 30, 2019, Schlumberger had fixed rate debt aggregating $13.5 billion and variable rate debt aggregating $3.6 billion, after taking into account the effect of interest rate swaps.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

As a multinational company, Schlumberger generates revenue in more than 120 countries. Schlumberger’s functional currency is primarily the US dollar.  However, outside the United States, a significant portion of Schlumberger’s expenses are incurred in foreign currencies.  Therefore, when the US dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the foreign currencies of the countries in which Schlumberger conducts business, the US dollar-reported expenses will increase (decrease).  

Schlumberger is exposed to risks on future cash flows to the extent that the local currency is not the functional currency and expenses denominated in local currency are not equal to revenues denominated in local currency.  Schlumberger is also exposed to risks on future cash flows relating to certain of its fixed rate debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.  Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts to provide a hedge against a portion of these cash flow risks.  These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with the changes in the fair value of the hedge recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.  Amounts recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss are reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods that the hedged item is recognized in earnings.  

Schlumberger is exposed to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.  While Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options to economically hedge this exposure as it relates to certain currencies, these contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes.  Instead, the fair value of the contracts is recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and changes in the fair value are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income as are changes in fair value of the hedged item.

At June 30, 2019, contracts were outstanding for the US dollar equivalent of $4.4 billion in various foreign currencies, of which $1.1 billion relates to hedges of debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.

At June 30, 2019, Schlumberger recognized a cumulative $13 million loss in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss relating to the revaluation of foreign currency forward contracts, cross-currency swaps and changes in the fair value of interest-rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges.

The effect of derivative instruments designated as fair value and cash flow hedges, and those not designated as hedges, on the Consolidated Statement of Income was as follows:

Contingencies

10.   Contingencies

Schlumberger is party to various legal proceedings from time to time.  A liability is accrued when a loss is both probable and can be reasonably estimated.  Management believes that the probability of a material loss with respect to any currently pending legal proceeding is remote.  However, litigation is inherently uncertain and it is not possible to predict the ultimate disposition of any of these proceedings.
