Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Accounting Policies	2. Summary of Accounting Policies The Consolidated Financial Statements of SLB have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, SLB evaluates its estimates, including those related to collectibility of accounts receivable; revenue recognized for certain long-term construction-type contracts over time; recoverability of fixed assets, goodwill, intangible assets, Asset Performance Solutions investments, and investments in affiliates; income taxes; exploration data; contingencies and actuarial assumptions for employee benefit plans. SLB bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Revenue Recognition SLB recognizes revenue upon the transfer of control of promised products or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for these products or services. The vast majority of SLB’s services and product offerings are short-term in nature. The time between invoicing and when payment is due under these arrangements is generally between 30 to 60 days . Revenue is recognized for certain long-term construction-type contracts over time. These contracts involve significant design and engineering efforts in order to satisfy custom designs for customer-specific applications. Revenue is recognized as work progresses on each contract. Progress is measured by the ratio of actual costs incurred to date on the project in relation to total estimated project costs. The estimate of total project costs has a significant impact on both the amount of revenue recognized as well as the related profit on a project. Revenue and profits on contracts can also be significantly affected by change orders and claims. Due to the nature of these projects, adjustments to estimates of contract revenue and total contract costs may be required as work progresses. Progress billings are generally issued upon completion of certain phases of work as stipulated in the contract. Any expected losses on a project are recorded in full in the period in which they become probable. Due to the nature of its businesses, SLB does not have significant backlog. Total backlog was $ 5.9 billion at December 31, 2023, of which approximately 60 % is expected to be recognized as revenue during 2024. Short-term Investments Short-term investments are comprised primarily of money market funds, time deposits, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, bonds, and notes, substantially all of which are denominated in US dollars and are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. For purposes of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows , SLB does not consider Short-term investments to be cash equivalents. Investments in Affiliated Companies Investments in companies in which SLB does not have a controlling financial interest, but over which it has significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method. SLB’s share of the after-tax earnings of equity method investees is included in Interest & other income . Investments in privately held companies in which SLB does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the cost method. Investments in publicly traded companies in which SLB does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of Interest & other income . Exploration Data SLB’s exploration data library consists of completed and in-process seismic surveys that are licensed on a nonexclusive basis. SLB capitalizes costs directly incurred in acquiring and processing the exploration data. Such costs are charged to Cost of services based on the percentage of the total costs to the estimated total revenue that SLB expects to receive from the sales of such data. However, an individual survey generally will not carry a net book value greater than a 4-year, straight-line amortized value. The carrying value of the exploration data library is reviewed for impairment annually as well as when an event or change in circumstance indicating impairment may have occurred. Adjustments to the carrying value are recorded when it is determined that estimated future cash flows, which involve significant judgment on the part of SLB, would not be sufficient to recover the carrying value of the surveys. Significant adverse changes in SLB’s estimated future cash flows could result in impairment charges in a future period. Asset Performance Solutions Asset Performance Solutions (“APS”) projects are generally focused on developing and co-managing production of customers’ assets under long-term agreements. SLB invests its own services and products into the field development activities and operations and is compensated on a fee-per-barrel basis or based on cash flow generated. This includes certain arrangements whereby SLB is only compensated based on incremental production that it helps deliver above a mutually agreed baseline. SLB capitalizes its investments in a project including the direct costs associated with providing its services or products. These capitalized investments are amortized to the Consolidated Statement of Income as the related production is achieved based on the units of production method, whereby each unit produced is assigned a pro-rata portion of the unamortized costs based on estimated total production, resulting in a matching of revenue with the applicable costs. Concentration of Credit Risk SLB’s assets that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, short-term investments, receivables from clients, and derivative financial instruments. SLB places its cash and short-term investments with financial institutions and corporations and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one of them. SLB regularly evaluates the creditworthiness of the issuers in which it invests. By using derivative financial instruments to hedge certain exposures, SLB exposes itself to some credit risk. SLB minimizes this credit risk by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties, limiting the exposure to each counterparty and monitoring the financial condition of its counterparties. As a large multinational company, SLB’s accounts receivable are spread over many countries and customers. The United States and Mexico represented 11 % and 13 %, respectively, of SLB’s net accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2023. No other countries accounted for greater than 10% of SLB’s accounts receivable balance. SLB maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable based on expected collectibility and performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. If the financial condition of SLB’s customers were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, adjustments to the allowance may be required. Earnings per Share The following is a reconciliation from basic to diluted earnings per share of SLB: (Stated in millions, except per share amounts) Net Income Attributable to SLB Average Earnings per Share 2023: Basic $ 4,203 1,425 $ 2.95 Dilutive impact of stock options and restricted stock - 18 Diluted $ 4,203 1,443 $ 2.91 2022: Basic $ 3,441 1,416 $ 2.43 Dilutive impact of stock options and restricted stock - 21 Diluted $ 3,441 1,437 $ 2.39 2021: Basic $ 1,881 1,400 $ 1.34 Dilutive impact of stock options and restricted stock - 27 Diluted $ 1,881 1,427 $ 1.32 The number of outstanding employee stock options to purchase shares of SLB common stock that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because to do so would have had an anti-dilutive effect, were as follows: (Stated in millions) 2023 2022 2021 Employee stock options 21 25 42

Charges and Credits	3. Charges and Credits 2023 SLB recorded the following charges and credits during 2023: (Stated in millions) Pretax Charge (Credit) Tax Benefit (Expense) Noncontrolling Interests Net First quarter: Gain on sale of Liberty shares $ ( 36 ) $ ( 8 ) $ - $ ( 28 ) Fourth quarter: Merger and integration 56 8 8 40 Currency devaluation loss in Argentina 90 - - 90 $ 110 $ - $ 8 $ 102 First quarter 2023: • On December 31, 2020, SLB contributed its onshore hydraulic fracturing business in the United States and Canada, including its pressure pumping, pumpdown perforating and Permian frac sand business, to Liberty Energy Inc. (“Liberty”) in exchange for an equity interest in Liberty. During the first quarter of 2023, SLB sold all of its remaining approximately 9 million shares of Liberty and received net proceeds of $ 137 million. As a result, SLB recognized a gain of $ 36 million which is classified in Interest & other income in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Fourth quarter 2023: • In connection with SLB’s acquisition of the Aker Solutions (“Aker”) subsea business (see Note 6 – Acquisition ), SLB recorded the following charges: $ 23 million of acquisition-related transaction costs, including advisory and legal fees; $ 11 million relating to the amortization of purchase accounting adjustments associated with the write-up of acquired inventories to its estimated fair value; and $ 22 million of other merger and integration-related costs. $ 45 million of these costs are classified in Merger & integration in the Consolidated Statement of Income with the remaining $ 11 million classified in Cost of sales . • Although SLB’ s functional currency in Argentina is the US dollar, a portion of its transactions are denominated in pesos. During the fourth quarter of 2023, Argentina devalued its peso relative to the US dollar by approximately 55 %. As a result, SLB recorded a $ 90 million devaluation charge. $ 61 million of this charge is classified in Cost of services in the Consolidated Statement of Income , with the remaining $ 29 million classified in Cost of sales . SLB’ s peso-denominated net assets in Argentina were approximately $ 75 million at December 31, 2023, primarily consisting of cash. 2022 SLB recorded the following charges and credits during 2022, all of which are classified in Interest & other income, net in the Consolidated Statement of Income : (Stated in millions) Pretax Charge (Credit) Tax Benefit (Expense) Net First quarter: Gain on sale of Liberty shares $ ( 26 ) $ ( 4 ) $ ( 22 ) Second quarter: Gain on sale of Liberty shares ( 215 ) ( 14 ) ( 201 ) Gain on sale of real estate ( 43 ) ( 2 ) ( 41 ) Fourth quarter: Gain on sale of Liberty shares ( 84 ) ( 19 ) ( 65 ) Loss on Blue Chip Swap transactions 139 - 139 Gain on ADC equity investment ( 107 ) ( 3 ) ( 104 ) Gain on repurchase of bonds ( 11 ) ( 2 ) ( 9 ) $ ( 347 ) $ ( 44 ) $ ( 303 ) • During 2022, SLB sold 47.8 million of its shares of Liberty and received proceeds of $ 730 million. These transactions resulted in gains of $ 325 million. As of December 31, 2022, SLB had a 5 % equity interest in Liberty. • The Central Bank of Argentina maintains certain currency controls that limit SLB’s ability to access US dollars in Argentina and remit cash from its operations in Argentina. A legal indirect foreign exchange mechanism exists, in the form of capital market transactions known as Blue Chip Swaps, which effectively results in a parallel US dollar exchange rate. During the fourth quarter of 2022, SLB entered into Blue Chip Swap transactions that resulted in a loss of $ 139 million. • During the fourth quarter of 2022, SLB repurchased $ 395 million of its 3.75 % Senior Notes due 2024 , and $ 409 million of its 4.00 % Senior Notes due 2025 for $ 790 million, resulting in a gain of $ 11 million after considering the write-off of the related deferred financing fees and other costs. • SLB accounts for its investment in the Arabian Drilling Company (“ADC”), an onshore and offshore gas and oil rig drilling company in Saudi Arabia, under the equity method. During the fourth quarter of 2022, ADC completed an initial public offering (“IPO”). In connection with the IPO, SLB sold a portion of its interest in a secondary offering that resulted in SLB receiving net proceeds of $ 223 million. As a result of these transactions, SLB’s ownership interest in ADC decreased from 49 % to approximately 34 %. SLB recognized a gain of $ 107 million, representing the gain on the sale of a portion of its interest as well as the effect of the ownership dilution of its equity investment due to the IPO. As of December 31, 2023, the fair value of SLB’s investment in ADC, based on the quoted market price of ADC’s shares, was approximately $ 1.4 billion and the carrying value of its investment was $ 602 million. SLB accounts for its share of ADC’s net income on a one-quarter lag. • During the second quarter of 2022, SLB sold certain real estate and received proceeds of $ 120 million. As a result of this transaction, SLB recognized a gain of $ 43 million. 2021 SLB recorded the following charges and credits during 2021, all of which are classified in Interest & other income, net in the Consolidated Statement of Income : (Stated in millions) Pretax Charge (Credit) Tax Benefit (Expense) Net Third quarter: Unrealized gain on marketable securities $ ( 47 ) $ ( 11 ) $ ( 36 ) Fourth quarter: Gain on sale of Liberty shares ( 28 ) ( 4 ) ( 24 ) Early repayment of bonds 10 - 10 $ ( 65 ) $ ( 15 ) $ ( 50 ) Third quarter 2021: • During the third quarter of 2021, a start-up company that SLB previously invested in was acquired. As a result of this transaction, SLB’s ownership interest was converted into shares of a publicly traded company. SLB recognized an unrealized pretax gain of $ 47 million to increase the carrying value of this investment to its estimated fair value of approximately $ 55 million. Fourth quarter 2021: • SLB sold 9.5 million of its shares of Liberty and received proceeds of $ 109 million. As a result of this transaction SLB recognized a gain of $ 28 million. • On November 30, 2021, SLB deposited sufficient funds with the trustee for its $ 1.0 billion of 2.40 % Senior Notes due 2022 to satisfy and discharge all of its obligations relating to such notes. As a result of this transaction, SLB recorded a charge of $ 10 million.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisition	6. Acquisition On October 2, 2023, SLB, Aker, and Subsea7 closed their previously announced joint venture. The new business, OneSubsea, will drive innovation and efficiency in subsea production by helping customers unlock reserves and reduce cycle time. OneSubsea now comprises SLB’s and Aker’s subsea businesses, which include an extensive complementary subsea production and processing technology portfolio, world-class manufacturing scale and capacity, access to industry-leading reservoir and digital domain expertise, unique pore-to-process integration capabilities, and strengthened research and development capabilities. In addition to contributing its subsea business to the joint venture, at closing SLB issued 5.1 million shares of its common stock valued at $ 306.5 million to Aker. Concurrently, Subsea7 purchased a 10 % interest in exchange for $ 306.5 million in cash to Aker. The joint venture also issued a promissory note valued at $ 87.5 million to Aker. SLB owns 70 % of the joint venture, while Aker owns 20 % and Subsea7 owns 10 %. The formation of the joint venture was accounted for as a business combination. As the majority owner and controlling entity, SLB is considered the acquirer and reflects OneSubsea as a consolidated subsidiary in its Consolidated Financial Statements . The transfer of the SLB subsea business to the joint venture was accounted for at historical cost, while the Aker subsea business was recorded based on the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of approximately $ 1.3 billion. The combination of the historical cost and fair value, discussed above, resulted in net assets of the joint venture of approximately $ 2.8 billion upon formation. Aker and Subsea7’s combined 30 % interest in the initial net assets of OneSubsea of $ 0.8 billion was recognized in Noncontrolling interests in the Consolidated Balance Sheet . The $ 0.1 billion difference between the noncontrolling interest recognized and the fair value of Aker’s net assets acquired less the fair value of the SLB shares of common stock issued to Aker was recorded as an increase to Common stock in the Consolidated Balance Sheet . The following amounts represent the preliminary estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the formation of the joint venture. The final determination of fair value for certain assets and liabilities will be completed as soon as the information necessary to complete the analysis is obtained. These amounts, which may differ materially from these preliminary estimates, will be finalized as soon as possible, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

SLB’s Cost of sales will reflect this increased valuation as the acquired inventory is sold. $ 11 million of this adjustment was expensed as of December 31, 2023. See Note 3 – Charges and Credits . (2) The goodwill recognized is primarily attributable to intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition as well as expected synergies from combining the subsea operations of SLB and Aker. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes . For the period from October 2, 2023 to December 31, 2023, the subsea business acquired from Aker contributed revenue of approximately $ 0.5 billion. The acquired Aker subsea business’ contribution to Net income attributable to SLB for the same period was not material. Aker reported revenue for its subsea business of approximately $ 1.5 billion for the year ended December 31, 2022 and $ 1.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Assuming SLB had acquired Aker’s subsea business as of January 1, 2022, Net income attributable to SLB and diluted earnings per share on a pro forma basis would not be materially different from SLB’s reported results for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities	10. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities SLB’s functional currency is primarily the US dollar. Approximately 72 % of SLB’s revenues in 2023 were denominated in US dollars. However, outside the United States, a significant portion of SLB’s expenses is incurred in foreign currencies. Therefore, when the US dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the foreign currencies of the countries in which SLB conducts business, the US dollar-reported expenses will increase (decrease). Changes in foreign currency exchange rates expose SLB to risks on future cash flows relating to its fixed rate debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. SLB uses cross-currency interest rate swaps to provide a hedge against these risks. These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with the fair value of the derivative 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. Details regarding SLB’s outstanding cross-currency interest rate swaps as of December 31, 2023, were as follows: • During 2019, a US-dollar functional currency subsidiary of SLB issued € 1.5 billion of Euro-denominated debt. SLB entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps in order to hedge changes in the fair value of its € 0.5 billion 0.00 % Notes due 2024, € 0.5 billion 0.25 % Notes due 2027, and € 0.5 billion 0.50 % Notes due 2031. These cross-currency interest rate swaps effectively convert the Euro-denominated notes to US-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 2.29 %, 2.51 % and 2.76 %, respectively. • During 2020, a US-dollar functional currency subsidiary of SLB issued € 0.8 billion of Euro-denominated debt. SLB entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of its € 0.4 billion of 0.25 % Notes due 2027 and € 0.4 billion of 0.50 % Notes due 2031. These cross-currency interest rate swaps effectively convert the Euro-denominated notes to US-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 1.87 % and 2.20 %, respectively. • During 2020, a US-dollar functional currency subsidiary of SLB issued € 2.0 billion of Euro-denominated debt. SLB entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of its € 1.0 billion of 1.375 % Guaranteed Notes due 2026 and € 1.0 billion of 2.00 % Guaranteed Notes due 2032. These cross-currency interest rate swaps effectively convert the Euro-denominated notes to US-dollar denominated debt with fixed annual interest rates of 2.77 % and 3.49 %, respectively. • During 2020, a Canadian dollar functional currency subsidiary of SLB issued $ 0.5 billion of US dollar denominated debt. SLB entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps to hedge changes in the fair value of its $ 0.5 billion 1.40 % Senior Notes due 2025. These cross-currency interest rate swaps effectively convert the US dollar notes to Canadian dollar denominated debt with a fixed annual interest rate of 1.73 %. A summary of the amounts included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet relating to cross currency interest rate swaps follows: (Stated in millions) Dec. 31, 2023 Dec. 31, 2022 Other Assets $ 36 $ 1 Other Liabilities $ 67 $ 326 The fair values were determined using a model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived or corroborated by observable data. SLB had derivative contracts in place that hedged the price of oil related to approximately 75 % of the projected oil production for each of 2023 and 2022 for one of its APS projects. During 2023, SLB entered into derivative contracts that hedge the price of oil relating to approximately 75 % of the projected oil production for the first six months of 2024; approximately 65 % for the third quarter of 2024; and approximately 30 % of the projected oil production for the fourth quarter 2024 for the same project. These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with changes in the fair value of the hedge recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss . Amounts recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss are reclassified to earnings in the same period or periods that the hedged item is recognized in earnings. SLB 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. SLB 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. SLB is also exposed to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. While SLB uses foreign currency forward contracts 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 derivative 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 the fair value of the hedged item. Transaction losses of $ 154 million in 2023 (including $ 90 million related to the Argentina devaluation in 2023; see Note 3 – Charges and credits for further details), $ 96 million in 2022, and $ 23 million in 2021 were recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income net of related hedging activities. Foreign currency forward contracts were outstanding for the US dollar equivalent of $ 5.4 billion and $ 2.1 billion in various foreign currencies as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Other than the previously mentioned cross-currency interest rate swaps, the fair value of the other outstanding derivatives was no t material as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. The effect of derivative instruments designated as hedges and those not designated as hedges on the Consolidated Statement of Income was as follows: (Stated in millions) Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income Consolidated Statement 2023 2022 2021 of Income Classification Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges: Cross-currency interest rate swaps $ 173 $ ( 254 ) $ ( 422 ) Cost of services/sales Cross-currency interest rate swaps ( 88 ) ( 88 ) ( 83 ) Interest expense Commodity contracts 3 ( 87 ) - Revenue Foreign exchange contracts 15 ( 30 ) 5 Cost of services/sales $ 103 $ ( 459 ) $ ( 500 ) Derivatives not designated as hedges: Foreign exchange contracts $ ( 9 ) $ 42 $ ( 11 ) Cost of services/sales During the fourth quarter of 2023, SLB issued a credit default swap (“CDS”) for a notional amount of $ 275 million to a third-party financial institution. The CDS relates to a secured borrowing provided by the financial institution to SLB’s primary customer in Mexico. The secured borrowing was utilized by this customer to pay certain of SLB’s outstanding receivables. The notional amount of the CDS, which was increased to $ 560 million in January 2024, will reduce on a monthly basis over its 26 -month term. The fair value of this derivative liability was not material at December 31, 2023.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Stock-based Compensation Plans	12. Stock-based Compensation Plans SLB has three types of stock-based compensation programs: (i) a restricted stock unit and performance share unit program (collectively referred to as “restricted stock”), (ii) a discounted stock purchase plan (“DSPP”), and (iii) stock options. Restricted Stock SLB grants performance share units to certain key employees. The number of shares earned is determined at the end of each performance period based on SLB’s achievement of certain predefined targets as described in the underlying performance share unit agreement. In the event SLB exceeds the predefined target, shares for up to a maximum of 250 % of the target award may be awarded. In the event SLB falls below the predefined target, a reduced number of shares may be awarded. If SLB falls below the threshold award performance level, no shares will be awarded. As of December 31, 2023, 3.2 million performance share units were outstanding assuming the achievement of 100% of target. All other restricted stock awards generally vest at the end of three years or vest ratably in equal tranches over a three-year period. Restricted stock awards do not pay dividends or have voting rights prior to vesting. Accordingly, the fair value of a restricted stock award is generally the quoted market price of SLB’s stock on the date of grant less the present value of the expected dividends not received prior to vesting. The following table summarizes information related to restricted stock activity: (Shares stated in millions) 2023 2022 2021 Weighted- Weighted- Weighted- Average Average Average Restricted Grant Date Restricted Grant Date Restricted Grant Date Stock Fair Value Stock Fair Value Stock Fair Value Unvested at beginning of year 18 $ 30.24 22 $ 29.03 19 $ 35.24 Granted 5 $ 56.24 7 $ 36.16 8 $ 25.16 Adjustments for performance achieved 2 $ 32.47 2 $ 35.55 - $ - Vested ( 11 ) $ 29.82 ( 13 ) $ 32.42 ( 5 ) $ 48.44 Unvested at year-end 14 $ 39.88 18 $ 30.24 22 $ 29.03 Discounted Stock Purchase Plan Under the terms of the DSPP, employees can choose to have a portion of their earnings withheld, subject to certain restrictions, to purchase SLB common stock. Until July 1, 2022, the purchase price of the stock was 92.5 % of the lower of the stock price at the beginning or end of the plan period at six-month intervals. Effective July 1, 2022, the purchase price of the stock was changed to 85 % of the lower of the stock price at the beginning or end of the plan period at six-month intervals. The fair value of the employees’ purchase rights under the DSPP was estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions and resulting weighted-average fair value per share: 2023 2022 2021 Dividend yield 1.7 % 1.8 % 2.0 % Expected volatility 50 % 47 % 67 % Risk-free interest rate 5.13 % 1.32 % 0.07 % Weighted-average fair value per share $ 14.93 $ 8.05 $ 6.72 Stock Options Key employees may be granted stock options under SLB stock option plans. The exercise price equals the average of the high and low sales prices of SLB stock on the date of grant. The maximum term is 10 years, and the options generally vest in increments over five years .

SLB’s tax filings are subject to regular audit by the tax authorities. These audits may result in assessments for additional taxes that are resolved with the tax authorities or, potentially, through the courts. Tax liabilities are recorded based on estimates of additional taxes that will be due upon the conclusion of these audits. Due to the uncertain and complex application of tax regulations, the ultimate resolution of audits may result in liabilities which could be materially different from these estimates. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions is as follows: (Stated in millions) 2023 2022 2021 Balance at beginning of year $ 893 $ 1,001 $ 1,271 Additions based on tax positions related to the current year 66 41 38 Additions for tax positions of prior years 91 64 19 Impact of changes in exchange rates ( 25 ) ( 38 ) ( 24 ) Settlements with tax authorities ( 36 ) ( 37 ) ( 49 ) Reductions for tax positions of prior years ( 176 ) ( 94 ) ( 228 ) Reductions due to the lapse of statute of limitations ( 30 ) ( 44 ) ( 26 ) $ 783 $ 893 $ 1,001 The amounts above exclude accrued interest and penalties of $ 155 million at both December 31, 2023 and 2022, and $ 164 million at December 31, 2021, respectively. SLB classifies interest and penalties relating to uncertain tax positions within Tax expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income .

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies	15. Contingencies SLB 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.

Retirement Benefits [Abstract]
Pension and Other Benefit Plans	17. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans Pension Plans SLB sponsors several defined benefit pension plans that cover substantially all US employees hired prior to October 1, 2004. The benefits are based on years of service and compensation, on a career-average pay basis. In addition to the US defined benefit pension plans, SLB sponsors several other international defined benefit pension plans. The most significant of these international plans are the International Staff Pension Plan and the UK pension plan (collectively, the “International plans”). The International Staff Pension Plan covers certain international employees hired prior to July 1, 2014 and is based on years of service and compensation on a career-average pay basis. The UK plan covers employees hired prior to April 1, 1999, and is based on years of service and compensation, on a final salary basis. The weighted-average assumed discount rate, compensation increases and expected long-term rate of return on plan assets used to determine the net pension cost for the US and International plans were as follows: US International 2023 2022 2021 2023 2022 2021 Discount rate 5.50 % 3.00 % 2.60 % 5.41 % 2.83 % 2.38 % Compensation increases 4.00 % 4.00 % 4.00 % 4.84 % 4.83 % 4.82 % Return on plan assets 6.00 % 4.40 % 6.60 % 6.00 % 5.05 % 6.73 % Net pension cost (credit) included the following components: (Stated in millions) US International 2023 2022 2021 2023 2022 2021 Service cost $ 23 $ 37 $ 44 $ 54 $ 101 $ 117 Interest cost 178 137 127 407 298 267 Expected return on plan assets ( 198 ) ( 202 ) ( 254 ) ( 607 ) ( 530 ) ( 640 ) Amortization of net loss - 5 44 - 80 227 $ 3 $ ( 23 ) $ ( 39 ) $ ( 146 ) $ ( 51 ) $ ( 29 ) The weighted-average assumed discount rate and compensation increases used to determine the projected benefit obligations for the US and International plans were as follows: US International 2023 2022 2023 2022 Discount rate 5.25 % 5.50 % 5.14 % 5.41 % Compensation increases 4.00 % 4.00 % 4.84 % 4.84 % The changes in the projected benefit obligation, plan assets and funded status of the plans were as follows: (Stated in millions) US International 2023 2022 2023 2022 Change in Projected Benefit Obligations: Projected benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 3,315 $ 4,668 $ 7,598 $ 10,618 Service cost 23 37 54 101 Interest cost 178 137 407 298 Contribution by plan participants - - 52 47 Actuarial losses (gains) 117 ( 1,152 ) 302 ( 3,140 ) Currency effect - - 56 ( 148 ) Benefits paid ( 220 ) ( 375 ) ( 360 ) ( 363 ) Other - - - 185 Projected benefit obligation at end of year $ 3,413 $ 3,315 $ 8,109 $ 7,598 Change in Plan Assets: Plan assets at fair value at beginning of year $ 3,396 $ 4,696 $ 8,126 $ 11,221 Actual return on plan assets 242 ( 933 ) 494 ( 2,834 ) Currency effect - - 71 ( 188 ) Company contributions 9 8 7 18 Contributions by plan participants - - 52 47 Benefits paid ( 220 ) ( 375 ) ( 360 ) ( 363 ) Other - - - 225 Plan assets at fair value at end of year $ 3,427 $ 3,396 $ 8,390 $ 8,126 Asset $ 14 $ 81 $ 281 $ 528 Amounts Recognized in Balance Sheet: Postretirement Benefits $ ( 159 ) $ ( 151 ) $ ( 16 ) $ ( 14 ) Other Assets 173 232 297 542 $ 14 $ 81 $ 281 $ 528 Amounts Recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss: Actuarial losses $ 328 $ 255 $ 1,804 $ 1,366 Accumulated benefit obligation $ 3,313 $ 3,221 $ 7,942 $ 7,454 The asset represents the difference between the plan assets and the projected benefit obligation (“PBO”). The PBO represents the actuarial present value of benefits based on employee service and compensation and includes an assumption about future compensation levels. The accumulated benefit obligation represents the actuarial present value of benefits based on employee service and compensation but does not include an assumption about future compensation levels. Actuarial gains and losses arising during 2023 and 2022 were primarily attributable to changes in the discount rate used to determine the PBO. The weighted-average allocation of plan assets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the target allocations by asset category as of December 31, 2023 were as follows: US International Target 2023 2022 Target 2023 2022 Cash and cash equivalents 0 - 3 % 1 % 2 % 0 - 5 % 3 % 2 % Equity securities 0 - 5 - - 0 - 5 1 10 Debt securities 80 - 90 84 83 60 - 70 69 56 Private equity and real estate 5 - 12 10 11 15 - 20 17 19 Private debt 2 - 8 5 4 9 - 15 10 13 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % 100 % The expected rate of return on assets assumptions reflect the long-term average rate of return expected to be earned on plan assets. The assumptions have been determined based on expectations regarding future rates of return for the portfolio considering the asset allocation and related historical rates of return. The appropriateness of the assumptions is reviewed annually. The fair value of SLB’s pension plan assets at December 31, 2023 and 2022, by asset category, is presented below and was determined based on valuation techniques categorized as follows: • Level One: The use of quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. • Level Two: The use of quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data. • Level Three: The use of significant unobservable inputs that typically require the use of management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.

SLB does not expect to make any material contributions to its postretirement benefit plans in 2024. Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions SLB provides healthcare benefits to certain former US employees who have retired. The actuarial assumptions used to determine the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and net periodic benefit cost for the US postretirement medical plan were as follows: Benefit Obligation Net Periodic Benefit At December 31, Cost for the Year 2023 2022 2023 2022 2021 Discount rate 5.25 % 5.50 % 5.50 % 3.00 % 2.60 % Return on plan assets - - 4.41 % 2.94 % 6.21 % Current medical cost trend rate 7.50 % 7.50 % 7.50 % 6.75 % 7.00 % Ultimate medical cost trend rate 4.50 % 4.50 % 4.50 % 4.50 % 4.50 % Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate 2035 2035 2035 2031 2031 The net credit for the US postretirement medical plan included the following components: (Stated in millions) 2023 2022 2021 Service cost $ 16 $ 23 $ 28 Interest cost 42 33 32 Expected return on plan assets ( 41 ) ( 38 ) ( 73 ) Amortization of prior service credit ( 23 ) ( 23 ) ( 23 ) Amortization of net gain ( 12 ) ( 10 ) - $ ( 18 ) $ ( 15 ) $ ( 36 ) The changes in the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation, plan assets and funded status were as follows: (Stated in millions) 2023 2022 Change in Accumulated Postretirement Benefit Obligation: Benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 808 $ 1,146 Service cost 16 23 Interest cost 42 33 Contribution by plan participants 7 9 Actuarial gains ( 7 ) ( 338 ) Benefits paid ( 61 ) ( 65 ) Benefit obligation at end of year $ 805 $ 808 Change in Plan Assets: Plan assets at fair value at beginning of year $ 938 $ 1,318 Actual return on plan assets 87 ( 323 ) Contributions by plan participants 7 8 Benefits paid ( 68 ) ( 65 ) Plan assets at fair value at end of year $ 964 $ 938 Asset $ 159 $ 130 Amounts Recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss: Actuarial gains $ 239 $ 199 Prior service credit 36 59 $ 275 $ 258 The asset balance relating to this plan was included in Other Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet . The assets of the US postretirement medical plan are invested 87 % in debt securities and 13 % in equity securities at December 31, 2023. The fair value of these assets was primarily determined based on Level Two valuation techniques.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, SLB evaluates its estimates, including those related to collectibility of accounts receivable; revenue recognized for certain long-term construction-type contracts over time; recoverability of fixed assets, goodwill, intangible assets, Asset Performance Solutions investments, and investments in affiliates; income taxes; exploration data; contingencies and actuarial assumptions for employee benefit plans. SLB bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition SLB recognizes revenue upon the transfer of control of promised products or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for these products or services. The vast majority of SLB’s services and product offerings are short-term in nature. The time between invoicing and when payment is due under these arrangements is generally between 30 to 60 days . Revenue is recognized for certain long-term construction-type contracts over time. These contracts involve significant design and engineering efforts in order to satisfy custom designs for customer-specific applications. Revenue is recognized as work progresses on each contract. Progress is measured by the ratio of actual costs incurred to date on the project in relation to total estimated project costs. The estimate of total project costs has a significant impact on both the amount of revenue recognized as well as the related profit on a project. Revenue and profits on contracts can also be significantly affected by change orders and claims. Due to the nature of these projects, adjustments to estimates of contract revenue and total contract costs may be required as work progresses. Progress billings are generally issued upon completion of certain phases of work as stipulated in the contract. Any expected losses on a project are recorded in full in the period in which they become probable. Due to the nature of its businesses, SLB does not have significant backlog. Total backlog was $ 5.9 billion at December 31, 2023, of which approximately 60 % is expected to be recognized as revenue during 2024.
Short-term and Investments	Short-term Investments Short-term investments are comprised primarily of money market funds, time deposits, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, bonds, and notes, substantially all of which are denominated in US dollars and are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. For purposes of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows , SLB does not consider Short-term investments to be cash equivalents.
Investments in Affiliated Companies	Investments in Affiliated Companies Investments in companies in which SLB does not have a controlling financial interest, but over which it has significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method. SLB’s share of the after-tax earnings of equity method investees is included in Interest & other income . Investments in privately held companies in which SLB does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the cost method. Investments in publicly traded companies in which SLB does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of Interest & other income .
Multiclient Seismic Data	Exploration Data SLB’s exploration data library consists of completed and in-process seismic surveys that are licensed on a nonexclusive basis. SLB capitalizes costs directly incurred in acquiring and processing the exploration data. Such costs are charged to Cost of services based on the percentage of the total costs to the estimated total revenue that SLB expects to receive from the sales of such data. However, an individual survey generally will not carry a net book value greater than a 4-year, straight-line amortized value. The carrying value of the exploration data library is reviewed for impairment annually as well as when an event or change in circumstance indicating impairment may have occurred. Adjustments to the carrying value are recorded when it is determined that estimated future cash flows, which involve significant judgment on the part of SLB, would not be sufficient to recover the carrying value of the surveys. Significant adverse changes in SLB’s estimated future cash flows could result in impairment charges in a future period.
Asset Performance Solutions	Asset Performance Solutions Asset Performance Solutions (“APS”) projects are generally focused on developing and co-managing production of customers’ assets under long-term agreements. SLB invests its own services and products into the field development activities and operations and is compensated on a fee-per-barrel basis or based on cash flow generated. This includes certain arrangements whereby SLB is only compensated based on incremental production that it helps deliver above a mutually agreed baseline. SLB capitalizes its investments in a project including the direct costs associated with providing its services or products. These capitalized investments are amortized to the Consolidated Statement of Income as the related production is achieved based on the units of production method, whereby each unit produced is assigned a pro-rata portion of the unamortized costs based on estimated total production, resulting in a matching of revenue with the applicable costs.
Concentration of Credit Risk	Concentration of Credit Risk SLB’s assets that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, short-term investments, receivables from clients, and derivative financial instruments. SLB places its cash and short-term investments with financial institutions and corporations and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one of them. SLB regularly evaluates the creditworthiness of the issuers in which it invests. By using derivative financial instruments to hedge certain exposures, SLB exposes itself to some credit risk. SLB minimizes this credit risk by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties, limiting the exposure to each counterparty and monitoring the financial condition of its counterparties. As a large multinational company, SLB’s accounts receivable are spread over many countries and customers. The United States and Mexico represented 11 % and 13 %, respectively, of SLB’s net accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2023. No other countries accounted for greater than 10% of SLB’s accounts receivable balance. SLB maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable based on expected collectibility and performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. If the financial condition of SLB’s customers were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, adjustments to the allowance may be required.
