With more than 80 years of pioneering innovation in reservoir characterization, drilling, production, and exploration, Schlumberger is the leading provider of upstream products and services in the oil and gas industry. It's a highly collaborative business, both internally, with more than 100,000 employees working in 85 countries, and externally, with the world's leading global oil and gas customers depending on Schlumberger products and services. Moving data and expensive resources through a complex network of delivery systems calls for reliable, real-time collaboration and communication for all stakeholders. That's one reason why standardizing on Microsoft 365is a major step forward in the company's strategy to harness the cloud and drive efficient customer service.

Recently, Schlumberger's VP of Information Technology Sebastien Lehnherr had this to say about driving teamwork and productivity on a global scale:

'Operational efficiency and agility are requirements in a highly regulated service industry striving for performance and service quality. We use Microsoft 365as a core element of our digital strategy-Microsoft Teams, Enterprise Mobility + Security, Power BI, and Windows 10 empower our employees globally with the intuitive, feature-rich tools that help them collaborate more efficiently and be more productive working in the office or while on the road.'

With highly secure, collaborative cloud apps at their fingertips, Schlumberger employees working in the field and at head offices in Paris, Houston, London, and The Hague are empowered by agile digital connections that accelerate service delivery and keep customers' products moving to market. Unimpeded communication helps connect the big-picture expertise from Schlumberger's leadership centers with local experience at production sites, adding value to customer relationships. We're also excited to see how Schlumberger's global Windows 10 deployment will add value to its Microsoft cloud business productivity platform.
