    2020 Performance Highlights (page 28) The unprecedented global health and economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 resulted in the most challenging environment that we and our industry have ever experienced. The profound global economic shock caused by the pandemic resulted in both a swift collapse in oil demand and in oversupply, which together caused a dramatic decline in demand for our services and products. Against this backdrop, we took swift and decisive actions to execute on our performance strategy, cut operating costs, and reinvent ourselves to adapt to an evolving industry landscape shaped by capital discipline, increased efficiency, operational resilience through industry cycles, sustainability and a reduced carbon footprint. Highlights of our 2020 financial, strategic and operational performance include:

  18. HOW TO CAST YOUR VOTE

    | We ended 2020 by restoring fourth-quarter adjusted EBITDA margins to pre-COVID levels, despite a 33% decline in our revenue year-on-year. We also generated strong free cash flow in 2020, despite severe industry headwinds. | In line with our focus on capital stewardship, we high-graded our portfolio by exiting certain commoditized businesses. In North America, we contributed our OneStim® pressure pumping business to Liberty Oilfield Services Inc., in exchange for a 37% equity interest in Liberty, and we divested our North America low-flow artificial lift business. | | We accelerated the most comprehensive corporate restructuring in our history, with our new structure organized on the basis of divisions, which are aligned with our customers’ workflows, and key basins. By the end of 2020, we had realized more than 90% of the benefits of our structural cost-reduction program, which will permanently remove more than $1.5 billion of annual fixed cash costs. | We formed Schlumberger New Energy, our portfolio of business and technology ventures dedicated to exploring new opportunities in low-carbon or carbon-neutral energy technologies. New Energy activities include ventures in the domains of hydrogen, lithium, carbon capture and sequestration, geothermal power and geoenergy for heating and cooling buildings. |

  19. HOW TO CAST YOUR VOTE

    As a result of our actions in 2020, we increased our earnings power and improved our margin profile, which position us to capitalize on growth drivers for the future of our industry and the next recovery cycle. We came through the turbulence of 2020 with drive and purpose and reinvented ourselves for the future. We believe that we are poised to deliver superior results for our shareholders, informed by our vision of a more efficient, sustainable industry.

    2020 Executive Compensation Highlights (pages 28-65) As more fully discussed in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this proxy statement:

  22. HOW TO CAST YOUR VOTE

    | • | We made no changes to the performance goals in our 2020 long-term incentive (“LTI”) program despite the pandemic. In fact, we increased the overall rigor of our 2020 LTI program as compared to 2019, by significantly increasing all performance targets for our free cash flow conversion performance share units (“PSUs”), and by raising the minimum performance target for our return on capital employed (“ROCE”) PSUs. | | • | We did not increase the 2020 target LTI grant values for any of our named executive officers, other than in the case of Stephane Biguet, who was promoted to the role of EVP and CFO. In addition, Olivier Le Peuch, our CEO, did not receive an LTI award in 2020. The Board granted him PSUs with a target value of $10.5 million in August 2019 in connection with his promotion to CEO and in lieu of his estimated 2020 target LTI award. As a result, the Board determined that Mr. Le Peuch should not receive an LTI award in 2020. | | • | Our CEO and CFO’s 2020 target direct compensation places them at approximately the 50th percentile among CEOs and CFOs, respectively, in our main peer groups. | | • | Despite the unprecedented global economic and industry downturn, and due to our rapid introduction of a decisive cost management program: |

  23. HOW TO CAST YOUR VOTE

    | • | our executives were able to generate cash flow of $2.67 billion in 2020; and | | • | our 2020 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, excluding charges and credits (“adjusted EBITDA”), was $4.31 billion. |

    For details regarding our 2020 cash incentive program and certain modifications that our Compensation Committee approved in response to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Elements of Total Direct Compensation; 2020 Decisions—Annual Cash Incentive Awards—Financial Objectives” beginning on page 34. 2020 Sustainability Highlights (pages 15 and 28) Our vision is to define and drive high performance, sustainably. We are committed to being at the forefront of our industry’s shift toward more sustainable energy production—challenging not only ourselves, but also our customers, suppliers, and peers to partner on delivering measurable social and environmental progress. Highlights of our 2020 sustainability performance include:

  25. HOW TO CAST YOUR VOTE

    | We delivered a 14% reduction of our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions intensity within one year—well on our path to our stated 2025 emissions reduction goal of 30%. | Our broad portfolio includes more than 100 impact-reducing technologies to help our customers decrease their environmental footprint, use cleaner chemistry, reduce waste, and decarbonize elements of the exploration and production (“E&P”) process. | We achieved our record-best safety and driving performance metrics, recording our lowest ever lost-time injury rate and our lowest ever automotive accident rate. |

    Our COVID-19 Response At Schlumberger, we pride ourselves on being leaders in managing health, safety, and environmental (HSE) risks. Our top priority in 2020 remained the health and safety of our employees, their families, and the communities in which we live and work. Since January 2020, we have sustained our global COVID-19 crisis management response, using an approach that was independently audited against pandemic preparedness best practices. We promoted a protective mindset, crafted into powerful and simple COVID-19 Life Saving Rules visibly supported by senior management. We continuously review and improve our safety procedures as new scientific evidence becomes available, and communicate any updated procedures across our global operations. We also used enabling technologies, such as virtual trainings and online modules, in our employee development, recruiting, training, and support activities. These technologies enabled our people to continue their career growth, advance their skills and continuously learn in 2020, which is strategically important to our talent pipeline. We delivered approximately 89,000 training days virtually during 2020.

    ITEM 1. Election of Directors All of our directors are elected annually at our annual general meeting of stockholders. Our stockholders are requested to elect eight nominees to the Board, each to hold office until the next annual general meeting of stockholders and until a director’s successor is elected and qualified or until a director’s death, resignation or removal. Each of the nominees is now a director and was previously elected by our stockholders at the 2020 annual general meeting of stockholders, except for Maria Moræus Hanssen, who was appointed by the Board to serve as a director effective October 15, 2020, based upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board. Having exceeded the normal retirement age of 70 under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, Leo Rafael Reif will not stand for re-election at our annual general meeting of stockholders. Lubna S. Olayan also will not stand for re-election at our annual general meeting of stockholders. Our Board extends gratitude to Dr. Reif and Ms. Olayan for 14 years of service and 10 years of service, respectively. All of the nominees for election have consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected. If any nominee is unable or unwilling to serve, the Board may designate a substitute nominee. If the Board designates a substitute nominee, proxies may be voted for that substitute nominee. The Board knows of no reason why any nominee would be unable or unwilling to serve if elected. At this annual general meeting, votes may not be cast for a greater number of persons than the number of director nominees named in this proxy statement. Shares represented by properly executed proxies will be voted, if authority to do so is not withheld, for the election of each of the eight nominees named below. In 2016, our stockholders voted to fix the number of directors constituting the Board at 12, as permitted under our Articles of Incorporation. However, only eight directors have been nominated for election at the 2021 annual general meeting of stockholders. The Board believes that it is advisable and in the best interests of our stockholders for the authorized number of directors constituting the Board to remain at 12. This will allow the Board to conduct a search for, and add, up to four additional directors prior to the 2022 annual general meeting. Required Vote Each director nominee must receive a majority of the votes cast to be elected. Brokers do not have discretion to vote on this proposal without your instruction. If you do not instruct your broker how to vote on this proposal, your broker will deliver a non-vote on this proposal.

    Corporate Governance We are committed to adhering to sound principles of corporate governance and have adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that our Board believes are consistent with our values, and that promote the effective functioning of our Board, its committees and the Company. At least annually, our Board reviews and, if appropriate, revises our Corporate Governance Guidelines to reflect the Board’s corporate governance objectives and commitments. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on our website at https://www.slb.com/who-we-are/corporate-governance/guidelines. We have also adopted a code of conduct entitled The Blue Print and The Blue Print in Action (together, our “Code of Conduct”), which applies to all of our directors, officers and employees. Our Code of Conduct is available on our website at https://www.slb.com/who-we-are/guiding-principles/our-code-of-conduct. Our governance practices, as detailed in our Bylaws, Corporate Governance Guidelines, Code of Conduct, policies and other business practices, include:

    Board Leadership Structure One of the Board’s key responsibilities is to evaluate and determine an appropriate board leadership structure to provide for independent oversight of management. The Board believes that there is no single, generally accepted board leadership structure that is appropriate for all companies, and that the right structure may vary for a single company as circumstances change.As such, our independent directors consider the Board’s leadership structure at least annually. The independent members of the Board have determined that the appointment of an independent Chairman of the Board is an appropriate Board leadership structure at this time because it allows our CEO to focus on leading the Company’s complex international business operations, while providing the Board experienced and independent leadership. The independent members of the Board appointed Mark Papa as the Chairman of the Board in August 2019. As independent Chairman, Mr. Papa sets the agenda for, and leads, all Board meetings and all executive sessions of the non-executive directors. In light of Mr. Papa’s appointment as the independent Chairman of the Board, the Board does not currently have a designated lead independent director. The Board may modify this structure to best address the Company’s unique circumstances and advance the best interests of all stockholders, as and when appropriate. In the event that the Company modifies this leadership structure in the future and appoints a lead independent director, that director’s responsibilities would be expected to include setting the agenda for all Board meetings (together with the Chairman), setting the agenda for and leading all executive meetings of the non-executive directors, and providing consolidated feedback, as appropriate, from those meetings to the Chairman. It is expected that the lead independent director would also have authority to call meetings of the Board in executive session; facilitate discussions, outside of scheduled Board meetings, among the independent directors on key issues as appropriate; and serve as a non-exclusive liaison with the Chairman and CEO, in consultation with the other independent directors. Schlumberger’s current governance practices provide for strong independent leadership, active participation by our independent directors and independent evaluation of, and communication with, many members of senior management. These governance practices are reflected in our Corporate Governance Guidelines and our committee charters, which are available on our website. The Board believes that its risk oversight programs, discussed on the following page, would be effective under a variety of board leadership frameworks and therefore do not materially affect the Board’s choice of leadership structure.

    The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight As set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Board routinely assesses major risks facing the Company and options for their mitigation, in order to promote the Company’s stockholders’ and other stakeholders’ interests in the long-term health, financial strength, and overall success of the Company. The Board is actively involved in overseeing risk management for the Company. We believe that our Board composition provides the Company with robust experience in several areas of risk oversight. Several of our Board members, including Dr. Mitrova, Ms. Moræus Hanssen, and Messrs. Galuccio, Le Peuch and Papa, have valuable experience in the regulatory, economic and commodity risks that are specific to the energy industry. Mr. Seydoux has expertise in science and technology issues, and Dr. Mitrova and Ms. Moræus Hanssen have valuable experience addressing risks related to the energy transition and sustainability. In addition, many members of our Board provide expertise in general business governance, capital allocation, management and economic trends relevant to our business. Each of our Board committees considers the risks within its areas of responsibility. The Board and its committees exercise their risk oversight responsibilities in a variety of ways, including as set forth in the chart below. For additional details, see “—Board Responsibilities, Committees and Attendance” below. The Board also manages risk, in part, through its oversight of the Company’s Executive Risk Committee (the “ERC”). The ERC is not a committee of the Board; rather, it comprises top Company executives from various functions, each of whom supervises day-to-day risk management throughout the Company. The ERC’s purpose is to identify those risks that have the potential to significantly affect our business over the short-, medium- and long terms — and therefore to impact our strategic objectives — and to implement appropriate mitigation measures. The Company’s risk identification is performed annually at two levels. The ERC performs a corporate-level risk mapping exercise, which involves the CEO and several other members of senior management, and while maintaining oversight, delegates operational (field-level) risk assessment and management to the Company’s various geographies, businesses and functions. To the extent that the ERC identifies recurring themes from the operational risk mapping exercises, they are acted on at the corporate level. Members of the ERC meet formally at least once a year, and more frequently on an ad hoc basis, to define and improve the risk mapping process, and to review and monitor the results of those exercises and those that have been delegated. The ERC reports directly to our CEO and to the Board, and annually presents to the Board a comprehensive report as to its risk mapping efforts for that year.

    Our Commitment to Sustainability Our vision is to define and drive high performance, sustainably.

At Schlumberger, responsible environmental and social sustainability is an integral part of our culture and the way we operate. Our approach to sustainability, which we refer to as “Global Stewardship,” addresses opportunities and risks associated with the energy transition and climate change; protecting the environment; investing in and engaging with our workforce and the communities where we and our customers live and work; and promoting diversity and inclusion and respect for human rights.

    | 2020 Sustainability Highlights | | | Emissions Reducing Technologies | • Our broad portfolio includes more than 100 impact-reducing technologies to help our customers decrease their environmental footprint, use cleaner chemistry, reduce waste, and decarbonize elements of the E&P process. | | | • In 2020, we announced Schlumberger New Energy, a new portfolio of business and technology ventures with a differentiated approach to participating in the low-carbon economy and expanding our offerings beyond oil and gas. Schlumberger New Energy leverages our intellectual and business capital in the emerging new energy markets, with a focus on low-carbon and carbon-neutral energy technologies. New Energy activities include ventures in the domains of hydrogen, lithium, carbon capture and sequestration, geothermal power and geoenergy for heating and cooling buildings. | | Climate Change | • In 2020, we continued expanding our climate impact assessment, to identify our climate-related risks and opportunities in countries representing a material portion of our operational activities, in alignment with recommendations made by the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). We also completed a risk assessment of the projected impact of sea level rise on our facilities globally. • We were the first company in upstream E&P services to commit to setting a science-based target to reduce our greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions, in line with criteria defined by the Science Based Targets initiative. We announced our initial target to reduce GHG emissions from our fuel and power consumption (Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources) by 30% by 2025. We will revise this initial target once our science-based target has been defined and approved in 2021. In 2020, we delivered a 14% reduction of our Scope 1 and 2 emissions intensity within one year—well on our path to our stated 2025 emissions reduction goal of 30%. | | Safety | • Since January 2020, we have sustained our global COVID-19 crisis management response, using an approach that was independently audited against pandemic preparedness best practices. We promoted a protective mindset, crafted into powerful and simple COVID-19 Life Saving Rules visibly supported by senior management. We continuously review and improve our safety procedures as new scientific evidence becomes available, and communicate any updated procedures across our global operations. • In 2020, we achieved our record-best safety and driving performance metrics, recording our lowest ever lost-time injury rate and our lowest ever automotive accident rate. | | Human Capital and Human Rights | • Our current gender balance goal is to have women comprise 25% of our salaried workforce by 2025. In 2020, women made up approximately 23% of our salaried workforce. Additionally, approximately 21% of management roles in 2020 were held by women. • In 2020, we formulated a plan to address the risks identified in the modern slavery and labor rights risk assessment of our global supply chain. • We are a participant member of, and support the mission of, the United Nations Global Compact and its Ten Principles on human rights, labor, the environment and anti-corruption. | | Executive Compensation | • We incorporated gender balance and diversity targets into the 2020 annual cash incentive opportunity for our CEO, CFO and other members of senior management (see page 38). • We incorporated a CO2 emissions reduction target into the 2020 annual cash incentive opportunity for our CEO and other members of senior management (see page 38). | | Sustainability Frameworks and Ratings | • We use key sustainability frameworks to guide our non-financial disclosures, including Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards, Sustainability Accounting Standards Board Standards (SASB), TCFD Recommendations, U.N. Sustainable Development Goals, U.N. Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights Reporting Framework, and IPIECA Sustainability Reporting Guidelines. | | | • We scored an A- on CDP’s climate change questionnaire in 2020, as compared to our peer group average score of C. We also received an A rating from MSCI, which cited our strong governance and business ethics practices. |

    Stockholder Engagement Our relationship and on-going dialogue with our stockholders are important parts of our Board’s corporate governance commitment. Our investor relations, sustainability, legal and human resources teams engage with stockholders to seek their views on key matters and to inform our management and our Board about the issues and emerging governance trends that our stockholders tell us matter most to them. The chairs of our Compensation and Nominating and Governance committees also participate in our engagement efforts when requested. These engagements routinely cover executive compensation, corporate governance, company strategy and performance, sustainability, human rights and other current and emerging issues. We typically reach out to our largest institutional stockholders at least annually. We then report the feedback we receive to our Board and its relevant committees, allowing the Board to better understand our stockholders’ priorities and perspectives. In addition, we may engage with our large institutional stockholders at other times in the year when we believe that there are appropriate topics to discuss. For more detail on our 2020 engagement with our stockholders, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Framework for Setting Executive Compensation in 2020—Stockholder Engagement; 2020 Say-On-Pay Vote” on page 33 of this proxy statement. Director Independence Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that at least a majority of the Board must consist of independent directors. This minimum standard reflects the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing standards. In addition, our Board has adopted director independence standards that meet or exceed the independence requirements in the NYSE listing standards, and which can be found in our Corporate Governance Guidelines. Based on the review and recommendation by the Nominating and Governance Committee, the Board has determined that each director nominee listed above under “Election of Directors” is “independent” under the listing standards of the NYSE and our director independence standards, except for Mr. Le Peuch, who is our CEO and therefore does not qualify as independent, and Mr. Galuccio. Additionally, Ms. Olayan and Dr. Reif are independent, and Peter Currie, Nikolay Kudryavtsev and Indra Nooyi were independent throughout the period in 2020 that each of them served on the Board. In addition to the Board-level standards for director independence, the Board has determined that each current member of the Audit Committee meets the heightened independence standards required for audit committee members under the NYSE’s listing standards and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and each member of the Compensation Committee meets the heightened independence standards for compensation committee members under NYSE listing standards. Our Board’s independence determinations included a review of transactions that occurred since the beginning of 2018 with entities associated with our directors or members of their immediate family. In making its independence determinations, the Board considered that Dr. Kudryavtsev, Dr. Mitrova, Ms. Moræus Hanssen, Ms. Nooyi, Ms. Olayan, Mr. Papa, Dr. Reif and Mr. Sheets each serve, or have served, as directors, executive officers, trustees, outside consultants or advisory board members at companies and universities that have had commercial business relationships with the Company. All such relationships involved ordinary course commercial transactions involving significantly less than the greater of $1 million or 1% of the other entity’s annual revenues during 2020, 2019 and 2018; except that one entity for which Mr. Sheets currently serves as a director, and one entity for which Mr. Papa previously served as an executive officer, had ordinary course commercial transactions with the Company involving less than 2% of each such entity’s annual revenues during those three years. The Board also considered that the Company made charitable contributions in the form of educational grants and sponsored research of less than $120,000 per year to certain institutions with which some of the directors are affiliated, as well as the following charitable contributions:

    Board Refreshment We believe that tenure diversity and Board refreshment are important, as directors with many years of service provide the Board with a deep knowledge of our Company, while newer directors lend fresh perspectives. The following charts reflect the balanced tenure and ages of our director nominees. Under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, non-executive directors are eligible to be nominated or renominated to the Board up to their 70th birthday, and executive directors are eligible to be nominated or renominated up to their 65th birthday, after which directors may no longer be nominated or renominated to the Board. Our Board may waive this policy on a case-by-case basis on the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee if it deems a waiver to be in the best interests of the Company. The Board waived this policy for Mr. Papa upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee because it believes that having Mr. Papa serve as the Board’s independent Chairman is in the best interests of our Company and our stockholders. Identifying Candidates for Director Nominations The Nominating and Governance Committee believes that director nominees should, in the judgment of the Board, be persons of integrity and honesty, be able to exercise sound, mature and independent business judgment in the best interests of our stockholders as a whole, be recognized leaders in business or professional activity, have background and experience that will complement those of other Board members, be able to actively participate in Board and committee meetings and related activities, be able to work professionally and effectively with other Board members and Schlumberger management, be available to remain on the Board long enough to make an effective contribution, and have no material relationship with competitors, customers or other third parties that could present realistic possibilities of conflict of interest or legal issues. The Nominating and Governance Committee also promotes our diversity policy that the Board should ensure that qualified candidates reflecting the gender, cultural and geographical diversity of the Company are considered as potential director nominees. With our diverse workforce representing over 160 nationalities, we value gender, cultural and geographical diversity, and our culture of recruiting, hiring and training where we operate influences the composition of our Board. Directors who are dual citizens are represented by the geographic region in which they currently reside.

    Two of our eight director nominees are women. Of our eight director nominees, three are citizens of France, two are citizens of the United States of America, one is a citizen of Norway, one is a dual citizen of both Russia and Israel, and one is a dual citizen of both Argentina and the United Kingdom. Our geographically diverse Board evidences our commitment to have directors who represent countries where we operate. In addition, the exceptionally broad and diverse experience of our Board nominees is in keeping with our goal of having directors whose backgrounds and experience complement those of other directors. The Nominating and Governance Committee’s evaluation of director nominees takes into account their ability to contribute to the Board’s diversity. The Nominating and Governance Committee annually reviews its effectiveness in balancing these considerations in the context of its consideration of director nominees. Another goal of the Nominating and Governance Committee is to seek out nominees having experience, skills and other attributes that complement the whole Board as a governing body. We believe that our director nominees are able to provide a well-rounded set of expertise that will assist in effective oversight of management at Schlumberger. The matrix below identifies the primary skills, core competencies and other attributes that each director nominee brings to bear in their service to our Board and committees. Each director nominee possesses numerous other skills and competencies not identified below. We believe identifying primary skills is a more meaningful presentation of the key contributions and value that each director nominee brings to their service on the Board and to our stockholders. Further information on each director nominee, including some of their specific experiences, skills and other attributes, is set forth in the biographies beginning on page 9 of this proxy statement.

    Applying the criteria above, the Nominating and Governance Committee recommends to the Board the number and names of persons to be proposed by the Board for election as directors at our annual general meeting of stockholders. In obtaining the names of possible nominees, the Nominating and Governance Committee makes its own inquiries and receives suggestions from other directors and management. Consideration of new Board candidates typically involves a series of internal discussions, review of information concerning candidates, and interviews with selected candidates. From time to time, the Committee retains executive search and board advisory consulting firms to assist in identifying and evaluating potential nominees. To further our diversity policy, we request that any such firms retained by us include women and ethnically diverse candidates in the proposals they present to us. During 2020, the Committee used the services of Spencer Stuart, a third-party executive search firm, for this purpose. Spencer Stuart suggested Ms. Moræus Hanssen as a prospective Board candidate. The Nominating and Governance Committee will consider nominees recommended by stockholders who meet the eligibility requirements for submitting stockholder proposals for inclusion in the next proxy statement and submit their recommendations in writing to: Chair, Nominating and Governance Committee c/o Secretary, Schlumberger Limited 5599 San Felipe, 17th Floor Houston, Texas 77056.

Unsolicited recommendations must contain all of the information that would be required in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of the candidate as a director, a description of all direct or indirect arrangements or understandings between the recommending security holder and the candidate, all other companies to which the candidate is being recommended as a nominee for director, and a signed consent of the candidate to cooperate with reasonable background checks and personal interviews, and to serve as a member of our Board, if elected.

    Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards LTI awards are designed to give NEOs and other high-value employees a long-term stake in the Company, incentivize the creation of sustained stockholder value, act as long-term retention and motivation tools, and directly tie employee and stockholder interests over the long term. In January 2020, our NEOs and other executives received 100% of their LTI awards in the form of PSUs, with payouts contingent on achievement of both absolute and relative Company financial performance goals. Our Compensation Committee believes that our current LTI program serves the following objectives:

  75. 2020 Key Personal Objectives and Results

    | • | creates a stronger and more visible link between executive pay and Company performance; | | • | furthers align our executives’ interests with those of our stockholders; | | • | incentivizes outperformance relative to other companies in our industry; | | • | mitigates the impact of the cyclical nature of our industry on our LTI program; and | | • | ties management incentives to key metrics that our management can more readily control. |

  76. 2020 Key Personal Objectives and Results

    No shares will vest under the PSUs awarded to our NEOs if we do not achieve pre-established minimum performance levels. No dividends will accrue or be paid on any unvested PSUs during the applicable performance periods. In January 2020, our NEOs earned 141% of the target shares of our common stock upon vesting of the three-year PSUs that were granted to our NEOs in 2017, and 250% of the target shares of our common stock upon vesting of the two-year PSUs that were granted in 2018. In January 2021, our NEOs earned 134% of the target shares of our common stock upon vesting of the three-year PSUs that were granted to our NEOs in 2018. See “—Payouts Under PSU Awards” on page 43.

  77. Role of the Independent Executive Compensation Consultant

    Role of the Independent Executive Compensation Consultant Our Compensation Committee has retained Pay Governance as its independent consultant with respect to executive compensation matters. Pay Governance reports only to, and acts solely at the direction of, our Compensation Committee. Pay Governance prepares compensation surveys for review by our Compensation Committee at its October meeting. One of the purposes of the October meeting is to assess compensation decisions made in January of that year in light of comparative data to date; another purpose of the October meeting is to prepare for the annual executive officer compensation review the following January. Pay Governance works with Schlumberger’s executive compensation department to compile annual compensation data for each executive officer, and to compare the compensation opportunities of our officers with those at comparable roles at companies in our main executive compensation peer groups. Our Compensation Committee has also retained Pay Governance as an independent consulting firm with respect to non-employee director compensation matters. Pay Governance prepares an analysis of competitive non-employee director compensation levels and market trends using the same two main peer groups as are used for the annual executive officer compensation review. Our Compensation Committee has assessed the independence of Pay Governance pursuant to SEC rules and has concluded that its work did not raise any conflict of interest that would prevent Pay Governance from independently representing our Compensation Committee.

    Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines Our Compensation Committee and management believe strongly in linking executive long-term rewards to stockholder value. In 2019, our Board, upon recommendation of our Nominating and Governance Committee and our Compensation Committee, adopted revised executive stock ownership guidelines applicable to our executive officers and other key position holders. Senior executives are required to hold the numbers of shares equal to the multiple of base salary set forth below:

  80. Role of the Independent Executive Compensation Consultant

    | Title | Stock Ownership Multiple | | Chief Executive Officer | 6x base salary | | Executive Vice Presidents | 3x base salary | | Executive Officers (non-EVP) | 2x base salary | | Key Staff Positions | 1x base salary |

  81. Role of the Independent Executive Compensation Consultant

    All executives subject to the guidelines must retain 50% of the net shares they acquire upon the exercise of stock options and after the vesting of PSUs and RSUs, after payment of applicable taxes, until they achieve the required ownership level. The guidelines provide that executives have five years to satisfy the ownership requirements. After the five-year period, executives who have not met their minimum stock ownership requirement must retain 100% of the net shares they acquire upon stock option exercises and any PSU and RSU vesting until they achieve their required ownership level. Stock ownership for the purpose of these guidelines does not include shares underlying vested or unvested stock options, unvested RSUs or unvested PSUs. As of December 31, 2020, all of our then-serving NEOs were in compliance with our stock ownership guidelines. Other Executive Benefits and Policies No Employment Agreements with Current NEOs Historically, our named executive officers have not had employment, severance or change-in-control agreements with the Company, and serve at the will of the Board. This enables the Company to terminate their employment using judgment as to the terms of any severance arrangement and based on specific circumstances at the time they cease being executive officers. We do not enter into employment, severance or change-in-control agreements with any newly-hired executive officers. Officer Departure Guidelines In January 2020, our Compensation Committee approved guidelines covering, among other things, LTI vesting, salary, benefits and other compensation matters for officers departing the Company, either because they are eligible for retirement, early retirement or special retirement, or because they are involuntarily terminated (if not eligible for retirement). These guidelines are a non-binding framework for management’s reference in its executive succession planning, with flexibility as required by specific situations. The purpose of the officer departure framework is to incentivize outgoing Company officers to support their successors for a period of time; to provide for a smooth transition; to provide resources to the Company in particular areas of expertise; and to secure outgoing officers’ covenants not to compete with us and not to solicit key employees to leave us. Under the guidelines, we may, at our discretion, enter into agreements with officers who are leaving the Company whereby they would receive annual cash payments that would generally be less than their pre-termination annual base salary. In addition, the officer would receive a prorated cash incentive award payment with respect to the year of his or her departure. The outgoing officer would also receive benefits such as medical and insurance during the agreement term, and would continue to vest in previously-granted LTI awards during the term. In exchange, the officer would agree to be available to Schlumberger for 50% of his or her business time during the term, and agree to non-competition, non-solicitation, and non-disparagement covenants. Agreement with Former CFO As previously disclosed in our definitive proxy statement for our 2020 annual general meeting of stockholders, Schlumberger and Mr. Ayat, our former CFO, entered into an agreement effective as of January 22, 2020 that provides for, among other things, certain benefits and payments through January 21, 2022, including a cash payment in each year of the term equal to his base salary prior to his retirement as CFO, in exchange for three-year non-competition and non-solicitation covenants on the part of Mr. Ayat. Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Ayat agreed to devote 50% of his business time to Schlumberger as Senior Strategic Advisor to our CEO for a two-year period. Under the agreement, Mr. Ayat will also continue to participate during the term in Schlumberger’s health, welfare and insurance plans on a basis comparable to that of other U.S. employees. He also was granted a PSU award on January 16, 2020, as set forth in the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards for Fiscal Year 2020” table in this proxy statement.

    Retirement Benefits In line with Schlumberger’s aim to encourage long-term careers with the Company and to promote retention, retirement plans are provided, where possible, for all employees, including named executive officers, according to local market practice. We consider long-term benefit plans to be an important element of the total compensation package. Our pension plans provide for lifetime benefits for certain employees upon retirement after a specified number of years of service and take into account local practice with respect to retirement ages. They are designed to complement, but not be a substitute for, local government plans (which may vary considerably in terms of the replacement income they provide) and other Company-sponsored savings plans. Employees may participate in multiple retirement plans in the course of their Schlumberger careers, in which case they become entitled to a benefit from each plan based upon the benefits they earned during their years of service related to such plan. We fund these qualified plans through cash contributions based on actuarial valuations and/or regulatory requirements. Some of our U.S. retirement plans are non-qualified plans that provide an eligible employee with additional retirement savings opportunities that cannot be achieved with tax-qualified plans due to limits on annual compensation that can be taken into account or annual benefits that can be provided under qualified plans. Officers and other employees in the United States whose compensation exceeds the qualified plan limits are eligible to participate in non-qualified excess benefit programs for 401(k), profit-sharing and pension. Employees and executive officers assigned outside the United States are entitled to participate in the applicable plans of the country where they are assigned, including supplemental plans where available. Other Benefits We seek to provide benefit plans, such as medical coverage and life and disability insurance, on a country-by-country basis in line with market conditions. Where the local practice is considered to be less than the Schlumberger minimum standard, we generally offer the Schlumberger standard. Our named executive officers are eligible for the same benefit plans provided to other employees, including medical coverage and life and disability insurance as well as supplemental plans chosen and paid for by employees who wish additional coverage. There are no special insurance plans for our named executive officers. Limited Perquisites We provide only limited perquisites to our named executive officers, which are identified in the narrative notes to the Summary Compensation Table. Clawback Policy for Performance-Based Cash and Equity Awards In 2019, our Board, upon the recommendation of our Compensation Committee, adopted a revised policy regarding recoupment of performance-based incentive compensation, whether paid in the form of equity or cash, in the event of specified restatements of financial results. Under the revised policy, if financial results are restated due to fraud or other intentional misconduct, our Compensation Committee will review any performance-based or incentive compensation paid to executive officers who are found to be personally responsible for the fraud or other intentional misconduct that caused, in whole or in part, the need for the restatement. Based on that review, the Committee will take such actions as it deems appropriate or necessary, including recoupment of any amounts paid in excess of the amounts that would have been paid based on the restated financial results. In addition, our performance-based equity awards and any shares of stock that are issued as a result of vesting of these awards are subject to recoupment under the terms of those awards. Impact of Tax Treatment Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the amount of compensation that may be deducted per covered employee, including each of our NEOs, to $1 million per taxable year. Thus, it is expected that compensation deductions for any covered individual will be subject to a $1 million annual deduction limitation. Although the deductibility of compensation is a consideration evaluated by our Compensation Committee, the Committee believes that the lost deduction on compensation payable in excess of the $1 million limitation for our NEOs is not material relative to the benefit of being able to attract and retain talented management. Accordingly, our Compensation Committee will continue to pay compensation that is not deductible. Compensation Committee Report Our Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed with the Company’s management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis included in this proxy statement. Based on that review and discussion, our Compensation Committee has recommended to our Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement.

  85. PSUs

    PSUs Under our 2017 Schlumberger Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan and subject to the Company’s standard form of PSU awards, PSUs are treated as follows upon the holder’s termination of employment with the Company and its subsidiaries prior to the vesting date (i.e., the third anniversary of the grant date):

  86. PSUs

    | • | If the holder’s employment terminates on account of disability or death, the target number of PSUs will immediately vest. | | • | If the holder’s employment terminates on account of retirement or, with Compensation Committee approval, early retirement or special retirement, the holder will vest on the regularly-scheduled vesting date with the number of PSUs determined as if the holder’s employment had not been terminated. | | • | If an individual terminates employment for another reason, no additional vesting is provided and the individual will automatically forfeit all outstanding PSUs without any additional consideration on the part of the Company. |

  87. PSUs

    For these purposes, “retirement,” “early retirement,” “special retirement” and “disability” have the meanings assigned to such terms in the applicable award agreements.

    Change in Control Under our 2010 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (with respect to stock options), and our 2013 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan and 2017 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (with respect to stock options, PSUs and RSUs), in the event of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, spinoff, reorganization or liquidation (each a “Corporate Transaction”), our Board may, in its sole discretion, (1) provide for the substitution of a new award (or other arrangement) for or assumption of any award, (2) provide for the acceleration of vesting of any awards, or (3) decide to cancel any awards and deliver to the holders cash in an amount that our Board determines in its sole discretion is equal to the fair market value of such awards on the date of such event. However, no current agreement with respect to our outstanding stock options, PSUs and RSUs currently provides for any definitive special treatment upon such a Corporate Transaction. The following table sets forth the intrinsic value of the unvested stock options and the value of the unvested PSUs at target and RSUs held by each NEO as of December 31, 2020, that would become vested upon the occurrence of a Corporate Transaction, assuming that the Board elects to accelerate the vesting of stock options, PSUs and RSUs as provided in the previous paragraph. Due to the various factors that could affect the nature and amount of any benefits provided upon these events, any amounts actually paid or distributed may be different. Factors that could affect these amounts include the time during the year of any such event, the price of Schlumberger common stock and achievement by the Company of any relevant performance metric.

    Retirement Plans Schlumberger’s pension plans and non-qualified deferred compensation plans include the same terms and conditions for all participating employees in the event of a termination or change in control. Other than the Schlumberger Restoration Savings Plans, none of Schlumberger’s non-qualified plans provide for the accelerated payment of benefits upon a change in control. For more information on these plans, see the Pension Benefits for Fiscal Year 2020 table and accompanying narrative above and the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation for Fiscal Year 2020 table and accompanying narrative above.

    Retiree Medical Subject to satisfying certain age, service and contribution requirements, most U.S. employees are eligible to participate in a retiree medical program. Generally, this program provides comprehensive medical, prescription drug and vision benefits for retirees and their dependents until attaining age 65. Historically, for Schlumberger employees who turned age 40 prior to 2014, and excluding those employees who became Schlumberger employees as a result of the Smith acquisition, retiree medical benefits continue beyond age 65, at which time Medicare becomes primary and the Schlumberger plan becomes secondary, paying eligible charges after Medicare has paid. However, effective April 1, 2015, participants who reach age 65 no longer continue in Schlumberger medical coverage after reaching age 65, but instead receive an annual contribution to a health reimbursement arrangement that can be used to purchase Medicare supplemental coverage and pay other tax-deductible expenses.

    Audit Committee Report During 2020, the Audit Committee periodically reviewed and discussed the Company’s consolidated financial statements with Company management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, including matters raised by the independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to applicable Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) requirements. The Audit Committee also discussed with Company management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the evaluation of the Company’s reporting and internal controls undertaken in connection with certifications made by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in the Company’s periodic SEC filings pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Audit Committee also reviewed and discussed such other matters as it deemed appropriate, including the Company’s compliance with Section 404 and other relevant provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules adopted or proposed to be adopted by the SEC and the NYSE.
