NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of Schlumberger Limited (“Schlumberger”) and its subsidiaries, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying unaudited financial statements. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2003. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included in Schlumberger’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.

Reclassification

Certain items from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Earnings Per Share

The following is a reconciliation from basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share:

Charges – Continuing Operations

The first quarter 2002 included a $29 million charge (pretax $30 million and minority interest credit of $1 million; $0.05 per share – diluted) related to the financial/economic crisis in Argentina where, in January, the government eliminated all US dollar contracts and converted US dollar-denominated accounts receivable into pesos. As a result, Schlumberger’s currency exposure increased significantly. With currency devaluation, an exchange loss (net of hedging) on net assets, primarily customer receivables, was incurred. In addition, a provision was recorded for downsizing facilities and headcount. The small SchlumbergerSema exposure in Argentina was also provided for. The pretax charge is classified in Cost of goods sold and services in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

-6-

An analysis of the fourth quarter 2002 pretax severance and facility charges as of March 31, 2003 is a follows:

The remaining severance costs are expected to be paid before September 30, 2003.

Investments in Affiliated Companies

Schlumberger and Smith International Inc. operate a drilling fluids joint venture of which Schlumberger owns a 40% interest and records income using the equity method of accounting. Schlumberger’s investment on March 31, 2003 was $606 million and on December 31, 2002 was $592. Equity in income of investments carried under the equity method (first quarter 2003 and 2002 – $15 million) are included in Interest & other income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

New Accounting Standards

In June 2001, SFAS 143 (Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations) was issued. SFAS 143 was adopted by Schlumberger commencing January 1, 2003. The implementation of this standard did not have any material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

On July 29, 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 146 (Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities). The standard required companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. Examples of costs covered by the standard include lease termination costs and certain employee severance costs that are associated with a restructuring, discontinued operation, plant closing, or other exit or disposal activity. Previous accounting guidance was provided by EITF Issue No. 94-3, (Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity [including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring]). SFAS 146 replaced Issue 94-3. Schlumberger adopted SFAS 146 prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.

In November 2002, FASB Interpretation No. 45 (Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others) was issued. It requires certain accounting and disclosures of guarantees to third parties including indebtedness. The statement is effective on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The implementation of this statement did not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued No. 00-21 (Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables). This EITF establishes the criteria for recognizing revenue in arrangements when several items are bundled into one agreement. EITF 00-21 does not allow revenue recognition unless the fair value of the undelivered element(s) is available and the element has stand-alone value to the customer. EITF 00-21 also provides guidance on allocating the total contract revenue to the individual elements based upon the available fair value of each deliverable. The implementation of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Securitization

In September 2000, a wholly owned subsidiary of Schlumberger entered into an agreement to sell, on an ongoing basis, up to $220 million of an undivided interest in its accounts receivable, and subsequently amended up to $250 million. The amount of receivables sold under this agreement totaled $174 million at March 31, 2003 and $155 million at December 31, 2002. Unless extended by amendment, the agreement expires in September 2003.

Financing

During January 2002, two principal subsidiaries of Schlumberger in Europe initiated a Euro commercial paper program, which is guaranteed by Schlumberger Limited. At March 31, 2003, Euro commercial paper borrowings totaled $638 million and the UK Pound commercial paper borrowing totaled $492 million. Both the Euro and the UK Pound commercial paper borrowings are supported by a long-term revolving credit facility.

On April 4, 2002, the principal US subsidiary of Schlumberger issued $1 billion of 10 year senior unsecured notes with a coupon rate of 6.50% (6.634% including amortization of debt discount and expense) in the US capital markets. The notes were issued under rule 144A without registration rights for life. The proceeds partially replaced US commercial paper borrowings. At March 31, 2003, US commercial paper borrowings totaled $981 million. US commercial paper borrowings are supported by a long-term revolving credit facility.

A summary of intangible assets follows:

The amortization charged to income for the first quarter 2003 was $26 million.

Intangible assets principally comprise patents, software, technology and other. At March 31, 2003, the gross book value, accumulated amortization and amortization periods of intangible assets were as follows:

The weighted average amortization period for all intangible assets is approximately 7 years.

-9-

Stock Compensation Plans

As of March 31, 2003, Schlumberger had two types of stock-based compensation plans, which are described below. Schlumberger applies APB Opinion 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plans and its stock purchase plan. Had compensation cost for the stock-based Schlumberger plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans, consistent with the method of SFAS 123, Schlumberger net income and earnings per share would have been the pro forma amounts indicated below:

Income Tax Expense

Pretax book income from continuing operations subject to US and non-US income taxes was as follows:

Schlumberger has net deferred tax assets of $569 million on March 31, 2003 including a partial valuation allowance of $165 million relating to a certain European net operating loss. Significant components of net deferred tax assets at March 31, 2003 included postretirement and other long-term benefits ($204 million), current employee benefits ($222 million), fixed assets, inventory and other ($115 million) and net operating losses ($193 million less a partial valuation allowance of $165 million).

-10-

The components of consolidated income tax expense from continuing operations were as follows:

Schlumberger reported charges in continuing operations in 2002. These are more fully described in the note Charges – Continuing Operations. A reconciliation of the US statutory federal tax rate (35%) to the consolidated effective tax rate is:

Schlumberger’s effective tax rate, excluding charges was, 32% and 25% in 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Contingencies

The Consolidated Balance Sheet includes accruals for the estimated future costs associated with certain environmental remediation activities related to the past use or disposal of hazardous materials. Substantially all such costs relate to divested operations and to facilities or locations that are no longer in operation. Due to a number of uncertainties, including uncertainty of timing, the scope of remediation, future technology, regulatory changes, the risk of personal injury, natural resource or property damage claims and other factors, it is possible that the ultimate remediation costs may exceed the amounts estimated. However, in the opinion of management, such additional costs are not expected to be material relative to consolidated liquidity, financial position or future results of operations.

In addition, Schlumberger and its subsidiaries are party to various other legal proceedings. Although the ultimate disposition of these proceedings is not presently determinable, in the opinion of Schlumberger any liability that might ensue would not be material in relation to the consolidated liquidity, financial position or future results of operations.

Schlumberger’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and receivables from clients. Schlumberger places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and corporations, and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one of them. Schlumberger actively evaluates the creditworthiness of the issuers in which it invests. The receivables from clients are concentrated within a few significant industries and geographies.

Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

BUSINESS REVIEW

First Quarter 2003 Compared to First Quarter 2002

Operating revenue for the first quarter was $3.34 billion and net income was $149 million. Earnings from continuing operations were $0.26 per share. This compares to $0.28 per share last year, a 7% decrease.

Oilfield Services revenue of $1.98 billion decreased 1% versus the fourth quarter of 2002, but increased 4% compared to the first quarter of last year. Pretax operating income was $315 million, increases of 14% sequentially and 3% year-on-year.

WesternGeco revenue of $307 million decreased 8% versus the fourth quarter of 2002, and 20% compared to the first quarter of last year. Pretax operating income broke even compared to $6 million in the fourth quarter of last year, and $47 million in the first quarter of last year.

SchlumbergerSema revenue of $793 million decreased 2% sequentially, but was up 12% year-on-year. Pretax operating income was $15 million, a decrease of 55% sequentially, and an increase of $14 million year-on-year.

OILFIELD SERVICES

First quarter Oilfield Services revenue of $1.98 billion decreased 1% sequentially, but increased 4% year-on-year. This contrasted with M-I rig count growth of 12% sequentially and 11% year-on-year.

Pretax operating income of $315 million rose 14% sequentially and 3% year-on-year. Savings from restructuring programs initiated in Europe and Africa the previous quarter and the recovery following the storms in the Gulf of Mexico, coupled with exceptional growth in Drilling & Measurements contributed to the sequential increase.

-13-

North America

Revenue in North America increased 8% sequentially and 6% year-on-year to $595 million. M-I rig count growth of 22% sequentially and 19% year-on-year did not substantially impact onshore revenue growth due to the natural lag effect and ‘trough’ pricing, particularly in pressure pumping. Offshore, Wireline and Drilling & Measurements achieved double-digit sequential increases in Gulf of Mexico revenues versus a reduced rig count. Pretax operating income of $73 million showed a 30% sequential growth, but decreased 9% year-on-year. The sequential improvement was primarily related to the colder than usual winter weather, which propelled the high seasonal upswing in Canada, where rig count rose 68% sequentially and 18% year-on-year, coupled with improved offshore performance.

Premium technology offerings in cementing also contributed to the results, and PowerDrive* rotary steerable activity was particularly strong on deepwater delineation projects due in part to this technology’s capacity for real-time transmission of MWD/LWD information.

Reflecting the growing demand for Integrated Project Management services, Schlumberger signed a 20-year performance-based production management agreement with Dunhill Exploration and Production, LLC to manage operations and maintenance of fields acquired by Dunhill in the Gulf of Mexico and US lower 48 states.

Latin America

Revenue of $290 million decreased 17% sequentially and 11% year-on-year, in contrast to the M-I rig count increase of 1% sequentially and 4% year-on-year. Overall results were largely impacted by the ongoing political turmoil in Venezuela, which also drove the country’s rig count down 43% sequentially and 56% year-on-year. Pretax operating income of $34 million decreased 34% sequentially and 14% year-on-year.

The declines in Venezuela were partially mitigated by sustained growth in offshore and onshore activity in Mexico, where the rig count increased 15% sequentially and 55% year-on-year in response to higher domestic demand for natural gas and light oil, which is spurring PEMEX’s commitment to develop its national resources. Reflecting this trend, PEMEX awarded Schlumberger a four-year, $500 million integrated oilfield services project in partnership with ICA Fluor Daniel; a two-year $60 million information management solution contract which is shared with SchlumbergerSema and representative of the future direction for its Energy IT services offering; and an IndigoPool project to host multiple service contract data rooms.

Europe/CIS/West Africa

Revenue of $588 million decreased 1% sequentially and increased 6% year-on-year, outpacing the M-I rig count, which dropped 2% sequentially and 11% year-on-year. Pretax operating income of $100 million showed a 54% sequential and 2% year-on-year increase primarily due to generally improved GeoMarket activity, as well as savings generated from prior year restructuring efforts.

The Russia, West & South Africa and Scandinavia GeoMarkets recorded the strongest revenue growth both sequentially and year-on-year, with increased demand for fracturing and completions services especially strong in Russia.

North Sea activity benefited from premium technology and superior service quality. In particular, PowerDrive rotary steerable systems not only doubled operating performance but were available for short-notice deployment in response to increasing client needs.

Middle East & Asia

Despite the war in Iraq and relative softness across Asia, revenue of $489 million showed a modest 4% sequential growth, and a 10% year-on-year increase, outpacing the M-I rig count, which rose 1% sequentially and 6% year-on-year. Settlement of revised contract pricing improved revenue by $9 million. Pretax operating income of $116 million remained flat sequentially but increased 11% year-on-year.

Operations in the Saudi Arabia, India and Australia GeoMarkets showed improved revenue both sequentially and year-on-year. There was high demand for Well Services, Drilling & Measurements and, particularly, Wireline technologies, which showed very strong growth across the entire area. This was partially offset by reduced activity in Brunei, Malaysia and the Philippines.

-14-

WESTERNGECO

Revenue of $307 million decreased 8% sequentially and 20% year-on-year. Pretax operating income broke even for the quarter, which included a $7 million provision for a contract loss in Mexico. Flat multiclient sales and declines in other product lines contributed to the year-on-year revenue decrease, while sequential results were impacted by strong land activity in Alaska, Mexico and Africa GeoMarkets; flat data processing activity; and decreased multiclient and marine sales.

Including multiclient pre-commitments, total backlog at the end of the first quarter of 2003 stood at $325 million. The marine seismic backlog stayed relatively strong in the Asia/Pacific, and the North Sea firmed up with Q capacity almost fully booked for the 2003 season. Both the land and data processing backlog remained strong, the former predominantly in the Middle East.

Pricing across all business segments remained flat for conventional marine, land and data processing activity. However, Q-Marine continued to command significant pricing premiums as a result of the added value obtained from the delivered product. Additionally, the restructuring effort announced in the fourth quarter of 2002 was completed during the current quarter with thirteen land crews and three 3D vessels decommissioned. Expected annualized cost savings are estimated to be $200 million.

SCHLUMBERGERSEMA

Revenue of $793 million in the first quarter decreased 2% sequentially, but increased 12% year-on-year. The year-on-year improvement was mainly due to the strengthening of European currencies against the US dollar and the continuing growth of the UK public sector favored by the development of e-government projects. The sequential decrease was principally related to the first quarter seasonal slowdown in IT services spending, partially offset by the favorable effect of the strengthening of European currencies against the US dollar.

Pretax operating income of $15 million decreased $18 million, or 55%, sequentially mainly due to lower activity resulting from seasonality, lower daily rates in Western Europe, the depressed IT industry in France and the decline in telecommunications activity in Eastern Europe. However, the $14 million year-on-year increase reflected the significant cost reduction programs carried out in 2002, particularly in North & South America and Asia, combined with a release of employee-related provisions of $7 million.

Revenue in the global energy segment increased 15% year-on-year to $190 million demonstrating the renewed focus that SchlumbergerSema brings to the market by combining systems integration skills, network and infrastructure capabilities, and Schlumberger global reach and sector knowledge. The opportunities generated by this combination include the recent contract awards by PEMEX, Hafslund and HubCo.

Europe, Middle East and Africa

Revenue of $605 million declined 8% sequentially, but increased 14% year-on-year. The year-on-year revenue increase came mainly from the UK, France and the Mediterranean, and reflected the favorable impact of European currencies appreciating 9% overall against the US dollar; as well as significant new public sector contracts in the UK. The sequential revenue decline was mainly due to seasonality, a lackluster telecommunications environment and a sale related to the development of a call center for the UK Department of Works & Pension (DWP) in the fourth quarter of 2002.

Pretax operating income of $13 million decreased 79% sequentially and 63% year-on-year. The sequential decline was mainly attributable to overcapacity in the IT services industry in France, and consequently, low daily rates which dropped by more than 15% during the quarter. Also contributing to the decline was a weak utilization ratio in Systems Integration projects, which were 2% to 3% lower than optimal, and the lower activity and profitability in the telecommunications industry in Germany and the Mediterranean.

-15-

North and South America

Revenue of $136 million increased 9% sequentially, but decreased 7% year-on-year mainly due to the weak IT spending environment, primarily in the telecommunications industry, as clients revise their budget outlays downwards and postpone decisions on major contracts.

Pretax operating income of $4 million increased $15 million from a loss of $11 million sequentially, and $21 million from a loss of $17 million in the same period last year. Despite revenue decreasing year-on-year, pretax operating income increased mainly due to the cost reduction programs carried out in North America throughout 2002, and the release of employee-related cost accruals.

Asia

Revenue of $53 million decreased 9% sequentially, but increased 4% year-on-year mainly due to increased activity on systems integration projects in Japan. The sequential decline was due to the traditional seasonality in the IT service industry coupled with the SARS effect starting to delay projects due to contingency plans and travel restrictions. The energy segment showed strong growth with year-on-year activity climbing 16%.

Pretax operating income of $11 million increased $14 million from the loss of $3 million sequentially, and $7 million from $4 million year-on-year. The sequential pretax operating income increase was primarily due to the release of employee-related cost accruals in the quarter. The year-on-year improvement was mainly due to the benefits of the cost cutting program implemented last year.

OTHER

Revenue for Volume Products of $202 million decreased 22% sequentially, but improved 1% year-on-year. The year-on-year improvement was mainly due to a 7% growth in mobilecom cards principally in North America and Europe, offset by a decline in parking terminals due to the exceptional Euro currency retrofit program that extended into early 2002. The sequential decrease reflected the seasonal drop in mobilecom activity, following telecommunications operators’ traditional Christmas campaigns coupled with reduced activity in prepaid phone cards.

Revenue for NPTest of $59 million increased 20% sequentially and 3% year-on-year. The sequential increase reflected improvements in Test Systems sales, including renewed activity from its customer base and penetration into new customers in the US and Asia. NPTest book-to-bill remained above industry averages.

INCOME STATEMENT

Interest income of $13 million decreased 27% reflecting a decrease of $184 million in average investment balances and a decrease in average return investment from 4.1% to 3.6%. Gross margin of 20.7% was 0.6 percentage point below last year. As a percentage of revenue, research and engineering expense was flat and marketing expense decreased 0.1% from last year. General expense as a percentage of revenue decreased from 4.9% to 4.8%. Interest expense of $92.9 million increased $10.6 million compared to same quarter last year with an increase in average borrowing rates from 4.6% to 5.3% due primarily to the US 10 year senior unsecured notes which were issued on April 4, 2002. The average debt balance decreased $65 million compared to same quarter last year. The effective tax rate for the first quarter was 32% compared to 25% for the same period last year. Major causes of the increase over last year was due to the country mix of the pretax results in WesternGeco and valuation allowance relating to a certain European operating loss.

CASH FLOW

During the first quarter, cash provided by operations was $91 million as net income plus depreciation/amortization were only partially offset by increases in customer receivables and decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities was primarily due to traditional, normal funding of employee benefits. Cash used in investing activities was $62 million as investments in fixed assets and multiclient seismic data was offset by reductions in investments. Cash used in financing activities was $174 million representing payment of dividends to shareholders and increases in short-term borrowings to finance working capital and other requirements.

Net Debt is gross debt less cash, short-term investments and fixed income investments held to maturity. Management believes that “Net Debt” provides useful information regarding the level of Schlumberger’s indebtedness by reflecting cash and investments that could be used to repay debt, and that the level of net debt provides useful information as to the results of Schlumberger’s deleveraging efforts. Details of the Net Debt follows:

-16-

On April 4, 2003, Schlumberger sold its investment of 9.7 million shares in Grant Prideco Inc. Net proceeds from the sale were $106 million.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This 10-Q report, the first quarter 2003 earnings release and associated web-based publications and other statements we make contain forward looking statements, which include any statements that are not historical facts, such as our expectations regarding business outlook, economic recovery, expected capex, multiclient and depreciation and amortization expenditures, the funding of pension plans and related pension expense, the likelihood of and benefits to be derived from divestitures, conditions in the oilfield service business, including activity levels during 2003, production increases in non-OPEC areas, issues affecting the seismic industry, including sales pertaining to Q technology, continued deepwater drilling activity, benefits from contract awards, future results of operations, pricing, future effective tax rates, the realization of cost reduction and savings in SchlumbergerSema and expectations regarding the future business and performance of SchlumbergerSema.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Schlumberger does not believe it has a material exposure to financial market risk. Schlumberger manages the exposure to interest rate changes by using a mix of debt maturities and variable- and fixed-rate debt together with interest rate swaps, where appropriate, to fix or lower borrowing costs. With regard to foreign currency fluctuations, Schlumberger enters into various contracts, which change in value as foreign exchange rates change, to protect the value of external and intercompany transactions in foreign currencies. Schlumberger does not enter into foreign currency or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.

Schlumberger Oilfield Services has operations in Venezuela which represented about 4% of the 2002 Oilfield Services operating revenue. In light of the present labor unrest in Venezuela, Schlumberger is reviewing its potential currency and business exposure, and taking appropriate steps to minimize the risks. While the ultimate loss is not determinable at this time, such loss will not have a significant effect on Schlumberger’s consolidated financial position or liquidity.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

Within the 90-day period prior to the filing of this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of Schlumberger’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Schlumberger’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a – 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that Schlumberger’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Schlumberger in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Subsequent to the date of their evaluation, there were no significant changes in Schlumberger’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls.
