SLB at CERAWeek: Driving Performance and Innovation in a World in Transition

At CERAWeek, Olivier Le Peuch outlined how the industry must respond to a world in transition-where energy demand continues to grow, resources are becoming more complex, and technology is reshaping what's possible. He emphasized the enduring role of oil and gas, the need to unlock supply through innovation and integration, and the accelerating impact of AI on performance and scalability.

"The role of oil and gas in the energy system is more recognized today-and it will remain for decades to come. So, we must unlock supply."

"We are a local-global company-getting closer to our customers and enabling agility. When we partner locally, we invent solutions locally."

"The emergence of generative and agentic AI is where we can transform the industry to new heights-it can completely change the game."

"Being globally diversified means tailoring technology to each local area and resource set-at scale."
