Schlumberger N.V., incorporated on November 6, 1956, is the supplier
of technology, integrated project management and information solutions to the international oil and gas exploration and production industry. The Company operates in the oilfield service markets through three Groups, which include Reservoir Characterization Group, Drilling Group and Production Group.
Reservoir Characterization Group
Reservoir Characterization Group consists of the principal
Technologies involved in finding and defining hydrocarbon resources. These include WesternGeco, Wireline, Testing Services, Schlumberger Information Solutions (SIS) and PetroTechnical Services. WesternGeco is the geophysical services supplier, providing worldwide reservoir imaging, monitoring and development services. WesternGeco provides measurements and images of subsurface geology and rock properties. Wireline provides information to evaluate subsurface formation rocks and fluids to plan and monitor well construction, and to monitor and evaluate well production. Wireline offers both openhole and cased-hole services, including wireline perforating. Testing Services provides exploration and production pressure and flow-rate measurement services both at the surface and downhole. The Technology also provides tubing-conveyed perforating services. Schlumberger Information Solutions sells software and consulting, information management and information technology (IT) infrastructure services that support core oil and gas industry operational processes. PetroTechnical Services supplies interpretation and integration of all exploration and production data types, as well as expert consulting services for reservoir characterization, field development planning production enhancement and multi-disciplinary reservoir and production solutions. PetroTechnical Services also provides industry petrotechnical training solutions.
Drilling Group
Drilling Group consists of the principal Technologies involved in the
drilling and positioning of oil and gas wells and consists of Bits & Advanced Technologies, M-I SWACO, Geoservices, Drilling & Measurements, Drilling Tools & Remedial, Saxon Rig Services and Integrated Project Management well construction projects. Bits & Advanced Technologies designs, manufactures and markets roller cone and fixed cutter drill bits for all environments. M-I SWACO is the supplier of drilling fluid systems, which improve drilling performance. M-I SWACO also provides engineered managed pressure drilling and underbalanced drilling solutions, as well as environmental services and products to manage waste volumes generated in both drilling and production operations. Geoservices supplies mud logging services for geological and drilling surveillance. Drilling & Measurements provide directional drilling, measurement-while-drilling and logging-whiledrilling services for all well profiles, as well as engineering support. Drilling Tools & Remedial provides a range of bottom hole assembly drilling tools, borehole enlargement technologies and impact tools, as well as a collection of tubulars and tubular services for oil and gas drilling operations. Saxon Rig Services provides land drilling and related support services.
Production Group
Production Group consists of the principal Technologies involved in the
production of oil and gas reservoirs and includes Well Services, Completions, Artificial Lift, Well Intervention, Water Services and Schlumberger Production Management field production projects. Well Services provides services, such as pressure pumping, well cementing, stimulation operations, as well as intervention activities that are used during oil and gas well drilling and completion, as well as maintaining the production of a well. Completions, supplies well
completion services and equipment that include packers, safety
valves, sand control technology, as well as a range of well completions technology and equipment. Artificial Lift provides production equipment and optimization services using electrical submersible pumps and gas lift equipment, as well as surface horizontal pumping systems. Well Intervention develops coiled tubing equipment and services and provides slickline services for downhole mechanical well intervention, reservoir monitoring and downhole data acquisition. Water Services specializes in the development, management and environmental protection of water resources.
