	Handbook of Texas Online:
		Schlumberger is noted for its decentralized management style and the autonomy extended to its field engineers.
		Schlumberger was founded as the Société de Prospection Electrique by brothers Conrad and Marcel Schlumberger and their father Paul in 1919.
		Schlumberger's most profitable division, North American Wireline Operations, was established in Houston in 1946 and led by Pierre Schlumberger, Marcel's only son.

	Schlumberger brothers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Conrad Schlumberger (2 October 1878 in Guebwiller – 9 May 1936 in Stockholm) and Marcel Schlumberger (21 June 1884 in Guebwiller – 9 May 1953 in Val-Richer) were brothers from Alsace, France (Conrad a physicist -graduated from École Polytechnique (France) in 1900- and Marcel, an engineer graduated from Ecole Centrale Paris in 1907).
		In 1927 the Schlumberger brothers produced the first measurements (SP) of an oil well in France.
		In 1956, Schlumberger Limited was formed in Curaçao as the holding company.

	Southern Strategy, Inc.: Where Wall Street Meets Tobacco Road
		Schlumberger is one of the two biggest oilfield services companies in the world, Halliburton [fn1] being the other.
		While Schlumberger, the company, was formed in Paris in the early 1900s, the intelligence network which operates through it is much older, a part of the banking empire of the interlocked de Neuflize, Schlumberger, and Mallet-Prevost families, which have been running operations against the United States since the American Revolution.
		Schlumberger's links with the intelligence community are also indicated by its close relationship to former CIA director George Bush, and the presence on its board today of former CIA director John Deutch.

	Article U.S. News
		Schlumberger traces its history to 1927, when brothers Marcel and Conrad Schlumberger devised a method of mappinggeological formations by measuring rocks' resistance to electricity.
		Schlumberger engineers are trying to answer that demand with such efficiency-boosting innovations as geological steering, a technique that essentially allows drillers of horizontal wells to see where the borehole is going.
		Schlumberger overcomes this limitation by putting a sensor at the end of the drill bit.

		The Schlumberger story is the unlikely tale of a French physicist from a country that has no oil, who came to Texas to show Americans how to find it.
		Schlumberger was on its way to becoming one of Houston’s major firms and a giant in the well-surveying field.
		Permanent French residents, whether the original corps of Schlumberger engineers, the war brides, or the recently arrived bevy of bakers, typically came to Houston relatively young and married American citizens.

		Schlumberger is the world leader in oilfield wireline operations, with Headquarters in Paris, New York and Tokyo.
		The Schlumberger brothers made the world's first electrical recording of subsurface conditions within the borehole of an oil well in 1927.
		Whilst today's Schlumberger Field Engineer is a specialist of high intellectual caliber, he must possess the qualities of drive, initiative and will to succeed against all the odds which are a part of the Schlumberger tradition.

		The Schlumberger brothers were apparently more talented in physics than in linguistics.
		And yet their discovery was almost fortuitous: they were not looking for it, since they were basically engaged in measuring resistivity to define the structure of the earth's subsurface.
		It was also he who wanted Schlumberger to become truly the crucible in which to blend the best of Europe and the best of America.
