Re:	Schlumberger Investment SA and Schlumberger N.V. (Schlumberger Limited)
	Registration Statement on FormS-3 (FileNo. 333-231029)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Schlumberger Investment SA, asociété anonyme organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (the “Company”) and Schlumberger N.V. (Schlumberger Limited), a Curaçao company (the “Guarantor”) in connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) of a Registration Statement on FormS-3, file no.333-231029 (the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the prospectus included therein, the prospectus supplement, dated June 17, 2020 , filed with the Commission on June 18, 2020 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act (the “Prospectus Supplement”), and the offering by the Company pursuant thereto of $900,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 2.650% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Notes”).

The Notes have been issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated December 3, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantor and The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated June 26, 2020, relating to the Notes (the “Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee, and are guaranteed pursuant to the terms of the Indenture by the Guarantor (the “Guarantee”).

In arriving at the opinion expressed below, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction as being true and complete copies of the originals, of the Base Indenture, the Supplemental Indenture, the Notes, the Guarantee and such other documents, corporate records, certificates of officers of the Company and the Guarantor and of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable to enable us to render these opinions. In our examination, we have assumed, without independent investigation, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all

natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. As to any facts material to these opinions, we have relied to the extent we deemed appropriate and without independent investigation upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company, the Guarantor and others.

We are not admitted or qualified to practice law in Luxembourg or Curaçao. Therefore, we have relied upon the opinions of Loyens & Loeff Luxembourg S.à r.l. and STvB Advocaten (Europe) N.V., filed as exhibits to the Guarantor’s Current Report on Form8-K filed with the Commission on June 26, 2020, with respect to matters governed by the laws of Luxembourg and Curaçao.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, exceptions, qualifications and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the Notes are legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms, and the Guarantee of the Notes is a legal, valid and binding obligations of the Guarantor obligated thereon, enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms.

The opinion expressed above is subject to the following additional exceptions, qualifications, limitations and assumptions:

This opinion is limited to the effect of the current state of the laws of the State of New York and the United States of America and the facts as they currently exist. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion in the event of future changes in such laws or the interpretations thereof or such facts.

B.    The opinions above are each subject to (i) the effect of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, arrangement or similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors’ generally, including without limitation the effect of statutory or other laws regarding fraudulent transfers or preferential transfers, and (ii) general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

C.    We express no opinion regarding the effectiveness of (i) any waiver of stay, extension or usury laws or of unknown future rights; (ii) any waiver (whether or not stated as such) under the Indenture, the Guarantee or the certificates evidencing the global Notes (collectively, the “Specified Note Documents”) of, or any consent thereunder relating to, unknown future rights or the rights of any party thereto existing, or duties owing to it, as a
