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

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

As a multinational company, Schlumberger conducts business in approximately 85 countries. Schlumberger’s functional currency is primarily the US dollar, which is consistent with the oil and gas industry. However, outside the United States, a significant portion of Schlumberger’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 Schlumberger conducts business, the US dollar–reported expenses will increase (decrease).

Schlumberger is exposed to risks on future cash flows to the extent that local currency expenses exceed revenues denominated in local currency that are other than the functional currency. Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options to provide a hedge against a portion of these cash flow risks. These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with the effective portion of 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. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of hedging instruments, if any, is recorded directly to earnings.

At June 30, 2012, Schlumberger recognized a cumulative net $52 million loss in Equity relating to revaluation of foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options designated as cash flow hedges, the majority of which is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months.

Schlumberger is also exposed to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities, including certain of its long-term debt, which are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options to hedge this exposure as it relates to certain currencies. These contracts are accounted for as fair value hedges with the fair value of the contracts recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and changes in the fair value recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income along with the change in fair value of the hedged item.

At June 30, 2012, contracts were outstanding for the US dollar equivalent of $6.9 billion in various foreign currencies, of which $3.9 billion relate to hedges of debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.

Commodity Price Risk

Schlumberger is exposed to the impact of market fluctuations in the price of certain commodities, such as metals and fuel. Schlumberger utilizes forward contracts to manage a small percentage of the price risk associated with forecasted metal purchases. The objective of these contracts is to reduce the variability of cash flows associated with the forecasted purchase of those commodities. These contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment and therefore, changes in the fair value of the forward contracts are recorded directly to earnings.

The notional amount of outstanding commodity forward contracts was $23 million at June 30, 2012.

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.

Schlumberger has an outstanding interest rate swap for a notional amount of $450 million in order to hedge changes in the fair value of its $450 million 3.00% Notes due 2013. Under the terms of this swap, Schlumberger receives interest at a fixed rate of 3.0% annually and will pay interest quarterly at a floating rate of three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 0.765%. This interest rate swap is designated as a fair value hedge of the underlying debt. This derivative instrument is marked to market with gains and losses recognized currently in income to offset the respective losses and gains recognized on changes in the fair value of the hedged debt. This results in no net gain or loss being recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income .

Table of Contents

At June 30, 2012, Schlumberger had fixed rate debt aggregating $7.4 billion and variable rate debt aggregating $3.1 billion, after taking into account the effects of the interest rate swaps.

Short-term investments and Fixed income investments , held to maturity , totaled $2.2 billion at June 30, 2012, and were comprised primarily of money market funds, eurodollar time deposits, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, euro notes and Eurobonds, and were substantially all denominated in US dollars. The carrying value of these investments approximated fair value, which was estimated using quoted market prices for those or similar investments.

The fair values of outstanding derivative instruments are summarized as follows:

12. Contingencies

In 2007, Schlumberger received an inquiry from the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) related to the DOJ’s investigation of whether certain freight forwarding and customs clearance services of Panalpina, Inc., and other companies provided to oil and oilfield service companies, including Schlumberger, violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Schlumberger is cooperating with the governmental authorities.

In 2009, Schlumberger learned that United States officials began a grand jury investigation and an associated regulatory inquiry, both related to certain Schlumberger operations in specified countries that are subject to United States trade and economic sanctions. Also in 2009, prior to being acquired by Schlumberger, Smith received an administrative subpoena with respect to its historical business practices in certain countries that are subject to United States trade and economic sanctions. Schlumberger is cooperating with the governmental authorities.

On April 20, 2010, a fire and explosion occurred onboard the semisubmersible drilling rig Deepwater Horizon , owned by Transocean Ltd. and under contract to a subsidiary of BP plc. Pursuant to a contract between M-I SWACO and BP, M-I SWACO provided certain services under the direction of BP. A number of legal actions, certain of which name an M-I SWACO entity as a defendant, have been filed in connection with the Deepwater Horizon incident, and additional legal actions may be filed in the future. Based on information currently known, the amount of any potential loss attributable to M-I SWACO with respect to potential liabilities related to the incident would not be material to Schlumberger’s consolidated financial statements.

Schlumberger and its subsidiaries are party to various other 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 is remote. However, litigation is inherently uncertain and it is not possible to predict the ultimate disposition of these proceedings.

15. Discontinued Operations

During the second quarter of 2012, Schlumberger sold its Wilson distribution business to National Oilwell Varco Inc. (“NOV”) for $906 million in cash. A pretax gain of $137 million ($16 million after-tax) was recognized in connection with this transaction.

During July 2012, Schlumberger completed the sale of its 56% interest in CE Franklin Ltd. to NOV for $122 million in cash.

As Wilson and CE Franklin comprised Schlumberger’s Distribution segment, the results of this entire segment have been classified as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Income .

During the second quarter of 2011, Schlumberger completed the divestiture of its Global Connectivity Services business for approximately $385 million in cash. An after-tax gain of $220 million was recognized in connection with this transaction, and is classified in Income from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Income . The historical results of this business were not significant to Schlumberger’s consolidated financial statements and, as such, have not been reclassified to discontinued operations.

OILFIELD SERVICES

Second-quarter revenue of $10.45 billion increased 5% sequentially. Revenue increased in all Groups as higher exploration offshore and in key land markets, together with strong deepwater activities, continued to benefit the Reservoir Characterization and Drilling Groups. Higher sales of Artificial Lift and Completions products combined with increased Schlumberger Production Management (SPM) project activity helped the Production Group post a sequential increase despite lower Well Services revenue in North America land. All Geographical Areas grew sequentially with the exception of North America as a result of the seasonal spring break-up in Western Canada and continued pricing pressure in the US land hydraulic fracturing market. Excluding Western Canada, North America grew sequentially on increased offshore activity, particularly in the US Gulf of Mexico. Internationally, revenue grew sequentially by 9% following a seasonal rebound of activity in Russia, the North Sea and China; more project-related revenues, robust product sales and higher offshore activity in the Mexico & Central America GeoMarket*; the commencement of an SPM project in the Ecuador GeoMarket; and increased offshore rig activity in the Australia & Papua New Guinea GeoMarket.

Increased Reservoir Characterization Group revenue was driven primarily by a rebound in Schlumberger Information Solutions (SIS) software sales together with strong Testing Services and Wireline activity on deepwater exploration projects in Africa, and in the North Sea and Australia & Papua New Guinea GeoMarkets. WesternGeco grew slightly as higher UniQ* land seismic productivity in the Saudi Arabia & Bahrain GeoMarket more than offset lower Marine vessel utilization from planned transits and dry-docks during the quarter. Drilling Group revenue expanded on robust international and offshore demand for Drilling & Measurements and M-I SWACO technologies. Integrated Project Management (IPM) operations in Latin America and in the North Africa and Australia & Papua New Guinea GeoMarkets were also stronger. Production Group revenue grew as increased sales of Artificial Lift and Completions products across all Areas in addition to the start of an SPM project in Ecuador more than compensated for lower Well Services revenue on land in North America.

On a geographical basis, North America Area revenue decreased due to the seasonal spring break-up in Western Canada and the weaker US land hydraulic fracturing market. Revenue in North America however, excluding Western Canada, improved sequentially due to increased offshore activity—particularly in deepwater US Gulf of Mexico operations. In the Latin America Area, the increase in revenue came mainly from the Mexico & Central America GeoMarket—driven by IPM land activity, SIS software sales, and demand for Drilling Group technologies offshore. The Ecuador GeoMarket was also up significantly with the start of an SPM production incentive contract. In the Europe/CIS/Africa Area, revenue increased from the strong seasonal rebound of exploration and development activity in the North Sea GeoMarket while the seasonal pick-up of activity in Russia—particularly in Sakhalin, the Caspian and Western Siberia—also contributed to the sequential improvement. Sub-Sahara Africa also grew due to high exploration activity in Tanzania and Mozambique as well as strong exploration and development activity in the Nigeria & the Gulf of Guinea GeoMarket. In the Middle East & Asia Area, the revenue increase was led by the Australia & Papua New Guinea GeoMarket as a result of strong offshore drilling activity. The China GeoMarket also posted a strong seasonal pick-up in onshore activity while the Saudi Arabia & Bahrain GeoMarket continued to register growth in both rig and rig-less operations.

Second-quarter pretax operating income of $2.1 billion increased 8% sequentially. Pretax operating margin increased 50 basis points (bps) sequentially. International pretax operating margin expanded 161 bps sequentially to 20.8% due to the seasonal rebounds of activity in Russia, the North Sea and China combined with strong results in Europe and Africa, and in other GeoMarkets in the Asia-Pacific countries and Latin America Area. The continued shift to higher-margin exploration and deepwater activities helped sustain international margins. In North America, pretax operating margin decreased 208 bps sequentially to 20.8% as a result of the spring break-up in Canada and continued cost inflation and pricing pressure in the US land hydraulic fracturing market.

Reservoir Characterization Group

Second-quarter revenue of $2.78 billion increased 7% sequentially. Pretax operating income of $784 million was 17% higher than the first quarter.

Sequentially, the revenue increase was driven primarily by a rebound in SIS software sales. Strong performances by Testing Services and Wireline Technologies on deepwater exploration projects in Africa, the North Sea and the Australia & Papua New Guinea GeoMarkets also contributed to growth. WesternGeco was slightly higher as increased productivity from the land seismic UniQ crew in the Saudi Arabia & Bahrain GeoMarket more than offset lower Marine vessel utilization resulting from planned transits and dry-docks during the quarter.

20

Table of Contents

Pretax operating margin increased 223 bps sequentially to 28.2% primarily due to strong SIS software sales combined with the more favorable revenue mix that resulted from higher deepwater and exploration activity.

Drilling Group

Second-quarter revenue of $4.00 billion increased 6% sequentially. Pretax operating income of $738 million was 12% higher compared to the prior quarter.

Sequentially, revenue increased primarily on strong international and offshore activity for Drilling & Measurements and M-I SWACO technologies. In particular, Drilling & Measurements performance was driven by both stronger activity and an improved technology revenue mix that led to some pricing gains. In addition, M-I SWACO also posted strong results from deepwater operations in the US Gulf of Mexico as M-I SWACO activity returned to pre-Macondo levels. IPM operations in Latin America, and the North Africa and Australia & Papua New Guinea GeoMarkets were also higher with the start of several new projects.

Sequentially, pretax operating margin increased 107 bps to 18.4% due to increasing high-margin deepwater activity both in North America and internationally. Margin expansion was also the result of a favorable revenue mix that led to selected pricing gains—particularly for Drilling & Measurements services.

Production Group

Second-quarter revenue of $3.74 billion increased 6% sequentially. Pretax operating income of $612 million was 1% lower sequentially.

Sequentially, revenue grew as increased sales of Artificial Lift and Completions products across all Areas and the start of an SPM project in Ecuador more than compensated for lower Well Services revenue on land in North America. Well Services revenue from offshore and international activities also grew sequentially to further offset the lower Well Services land activity due to the Canadian spring break-up and the downward pricing trend.

Second-quarter pretax operating margin decreased 117 bps to 16.4%. This decline was largely attributable to the North American land hydraulic fracturing market as a result of the spring break-up in Canada and the continued cost inflation and pricing pressure in US land. This was offset in part by better margins posted by the other Production Group Technologies.

OILFIELD SERVICES

Second-quarter 2012 revenue of $10.45 billion was 16% higher than the same period last year largely due to the significantly improved exploration and development activities of M-I SWACO, Drilling & Measurements, Wireline and Well Services Technologies in a number of international GeoMarkets and in North America offshore, particularly in the US Gulf of Mexico. Geographically, the increase was led by the Europe/CIS/Africa Area, primarily in Russia and in the Nigeria & Gulf of Guinea, Angola, the North Sea and East Africa GeoMarkets. Latin America was also higher, mainly in the Mexico & Central America Geomarket driven by strong IPM activity on land and robust offshore activity for Wireline and Drilling technologies.

Second-quarter 2012 pretax operating margin increased 63 bps to 20.1% due to the robust contributions from the Reservoir Characterization and Drilling Groups as both benefited from higher-margin exploration activities in North America offshore and in the international markets. However, this increase was partially offset by a decline in margins for Well Services technologies, primarily in North America, as a result of pricing pressure and cost inflation.

Reservoir Characterization Group

Second-quarter 2012 revenue of $2.78 billion was 13% higher than the same period last year led by Wireline and Testing Services driven by improved offshore exploration activities across all Areas, namely in North America offshore, Latin America, and in Europe/CIS/Africa. SIS was also higher on strong software sales while WesternGeco decreased on lower Marine vessel utilization from planned transits and dry-docks during the quarter.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin increased 377 basis points to 28.2% largely due to the higher-margin exploration activities that benefited Wireline and Testing Services and higher software sales of SIS.

Drilling Group

Second-quarter 2012 revenue of $4.00 billion was 19% higher than the previous year primarily due to the significantly improved exploration and development activities of Drilling & Measurements and M-I SWACO in North America offshore and in the international markets.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin increased 253 basis points to 18.4% primarily due to the improved revenue mix of Drilling & Measurements and M-I SWACO.

Production Group

Second-quarter 2012 revenue of $3.74 billion increased 19% year-on-year primarily attributable to Well Services technologies. Well Services grew equally in North America and internationally, with international growth led by Latin America and by Europe/CIS/Africa. Well Intervention, Artificial Lift and Completions Technologies also contributed to the strong growth.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 313 basis points to 16.4% as a result of the decline in margins for Well Services technologies, primarily in North America as a result of pricing pressure and cost inflation.

OILFIELD SERVICES

Six-months 2012 revenue of $20.4 billion increased 19% versus the same period last year with the North America Area 24% higher and International Areas 17% higher. The increase in North America was led by strong growth offshore, particularly in the US Gulf of Mexico with robust deepwater and exploration activity benefiting the Reservoir Characterization and Drilling Groups Technologies. The Production Group also experienced significant improvement in activity in North America land. Internationally, higher exploration and development activities in a number of GeoMarkets both offshore and in key land markets contributed to the increase. The increase is led by the Europe/CIS/Africa Area, mainly in Russia and in the Nigeria & Gulf of Guinea, Angola, the North Sea and East Africa GeoMarkets. Latin America was also higher, mainly in the Mexico & Central America and Venezuela, Trinidad & Tobago GeoMarkets driven by strong IPM activity on land and robust offshore activity for Wireline and Drilling technologies.

On a Product Group basis, Reservoir Characterization and Drilling Group revenues were strong as a result of robust exploration and development activities in a number of international GeoMarkets and in North America offshore, particularly in the US Gulf of Mexico. Reservoir Production revenue increased mostly from Well Services.

Year-to-date pretax operating margin increased 111 basis points to 19.8% due to the robust contribution from the Reservoir Characterization and Drilling Groups as both benefited from higher-margin exploration activities in North America offshore and in the international markets. However, this increase was partially offset by a decline in margins for Well Services technologies, primarily in North America, as a result of pricing pressure and cost inflation.

Reservoir Characterization Group

Six-month 2012 revenue of $5.36 billion was 15.3% higher than the same period last year led by Wireline and Testing Services driven by improved offshore exploration activities across all Areas, namely in North America offshore, Latin America, and in Europe/CIS/Africa. Strong SIS software sales also contributed to the growth.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin increased 434 basis points to 27.2% largely due to the higher-margin exploration activities that benefited Wireline and Testing Services and higher software sales of SIS.

Drilling Group

Six-months 2012 revenue of $7.79 billion was 20% higher than the previous year primarily due to the significantly improved exploration and development activities of M-I SWACO, Drilling & Measurements, and the other Smith technologies in North America offshore and in the international markets.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin increased 248 basis points to 17.9% primarily due to the increase in higher-margin activities of Drilling & Measurements, M-I SWACO and Drilling Tools and Remedial Technologies that benefited from higher-margin exploration activities in North America offshore and in the international markets, mainly in the Europe/CIS/Africa Area.

Production Group

Six-months 2012 revenue of $7.28 billion increased 22% year-on-year. Well Services grew both in North America and internationally, with international growth led by Latin America and by Europe/CIS/Africa. Well Intervention, Artificial Lift and Completions Technologies posted strong growth also across all Areas.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin decreased 227 basis points to 17.0% mainly due to decline in margins for Well Services technologies, primarily in North America, as a result of pricing pressure and cost inflation. This was mitigated in part by the margin expansion experienced in Well Intervention and Completions technologies.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the activity, during the six months ended June 30, under the April 17, 2008 share repurchase program:

	(Stated in millions except per share amounts) — Total cost of shares purchased	Total number of shares purchased	Average price paid per share
Six months ended June 30, 2012	$ 823	11.9	$ 69.13
Six months ended June 30, 2011	$ 1,551	17.9	$ 86.76

• Cash flow provided by operations was $1.5 billion in the first six months of 2012 compared to $2.1 billion in the first six months of 2011 with an increase in working capital requirements offset in part by an increase in earnings before depreciation and amortization expense.

• Capital expenditures were $2.1 billion in the first six months of 2012 compared to $1.7 billion during the first six months of 2011. Capital expenditures for the full year of 2012 are expected to be approximately $4.5 billion as compared to $4.0 billion in 2011.

• During the second quarter of 2012, Schlumberger completed the divestiture of its Wilson distribution business for $906 million in cash.

• During the second quarter of 2011, Schlumberger completed the divestiture of its Global Connectivity Services business for $385 million in cash.

• During the first quarter of 2011, Schlumberger issued $1.1 billion of 4.20% Senior Notes due 2021 and $500 million of 2.65% Senior Notes due 2016.

• During the first quarter of 2011, Schlumberger repurchased all of its outstanding 9.75% Senior Notes due 2019, 8.625% Senior Notes due 2014 and 6.00% Senior Notes due 2016 for approximately $1.26 billion.

At times, Schlumberger experiences delays in payments from certain of its customers. Schlumberger operates in approximately 85 countries. At June 30, 2012, only five of those countries individually accounted for greater than 5% of Schlumberger’s accounts receivable balance of which only one, the United States, represented greater than 10%. A delay in payment or the nonpayment of amounts that are owed to Schlumberger could have a material adverse effect on Schlumberger’s results of operations and cash flows.

As of June 30, 2012 Schlumberger had $3.5 billion of cash and short-term investments on hand. Schlumberger had separate committed debt facility agreements aggregating $4.1 billion with commercial banks, of which $2.3 billion was available and unused as of June 30, 2012. This included $3.5 billion of committed facilities which support commercial paper programs in the United States and Europe. Schlumberger believes that these amounts are sufficient to meet future business requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Schlumberger had $1.4 billion of commercial paper outstanding as of June 30, 2012.
