Initially promised to suspend investment and technology deployment to its Russia operations. But the company increased its market share in Russia and is expanding. The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption (NACP) has included the leading global oil company SLB (formerly Schlumberger), headquartered in the USA, on the list of international sponsors of the war. On July 14, 2023 SLB announced that it is halting shipments of products and technology into Russia from all SLB facilities worldwide in response to the continued expansion of international sanctions. SLB-based oilfield services provider SLB has said it has no current plans to end its operations in Russia despite the ongoing conflict with Ukraine and resulting Western pressure. The world's largest oilfield services company SLB is expanding in Russia after its main Western competitors exited the market in the wake of a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
