SLB, the world’s largest offshore drilling company headquartered in Texas, continues to operate in Russia despite international sanctions, according to documents published by the analytical firm @dallasparkua. 🧵Thread:
2/ In March 2022, SLB publicly announced that it would suspend all new investments in the Russian market in response to international sanctions. This was in the statement from Chief Executive Officer Olivier Le Peuch, issued from the company’s Houston headquarter
3/ In October 2022, the company underwent a global rebranding, changing its name from Schlumberger to SLB. The Russian subsidiary retained the name Schlumberger Technology Company. However, leaked correspondence point that it continues to be integrated into SLB’s global framework
4/ For example, according to leaked emails, Russian entity maintains a web presence under the domain slb dot ru, identical to that of the global brand, and its employees continue to use corporate email addresses ending in slb dot com
5/ On February 17, 2025, Schlumberger signed a transfer and acceptance certificate with Russian company proton PROTON with a package of engineering drawings required for the production of a rotor and stator for a 117 mm submersible electric motor
6/ These electric motors are key components of electric submersible pumps (ESP) used in oil extraction.
7/ In effect, Western technology owned by SLB was passed to an intermediary in Russia. This is quite worrying, given that without Western technology, Russia’s oil infrastructure would rapidly deteriorate.
8/ We recommend reading the full investigation from @dallasparkua, and inspect evidence yourself: https://dallas-park.com/americ...
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua Upstream devices extend field life, extend output extends the war chest. Oil and gas fund a huge slice of russias budget, and we comply with sanctions means nothing if subsidiaries keep the spigots open.
@Tatarigami_UA @gillinghamdonn2 @dallasparkua Some companies left Russia. Others like SLB just rebranded their conscience.
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua Wow, what a find! Thank you for sharing. Yes, they need out technology, as the reserves they have are becoming more and more challenging to extract. They are risking a Venezuelan outcome if they don’t have the resources to invest.
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua two bucks is always two bucks, right, bastards?
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua And let me guess? All of you in your kindergarten are upset about it. Right?
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua I doesn't change your point, but SLB is not a drilling company, it's a service company.
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua aka Schlumberger
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua 👏👏👏☝️
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua @POTUS are you aware of this!
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua I mean what can do if they are an Oil related company?!
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua There is no international sanctions only unalitaral ones from the west and one or two lapdogs in asia so..
@Tatarigami_UA @dallasparkua cant trust people or companies in texas. their attorney general is criminal. their governor lies about being crippled to get massive payout. election fraud and ted cruz also rapes his daughter.
