1.    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Schlumberger Limited and its subsidiaries (Schlumberger) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America 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 Schlumberger management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement have been included in the accompanying unaudited financial statements.  All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.  Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2018.  The December 31, 2017 balance sheet information has been derived from the Schlumberger 2017 audited financial statements.  For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Schlumberger Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 24, 2018.  

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.  This ASU amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition and requires companies to recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.  Schlumberger adopted this ASU on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018.   Prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reflected in accordance with Schlumberger’s historical accounting.  The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on Schlumberger’s Consolidated Financial Statements.  

Schlumberger recognizes revenue upon the transfer of control of promised products or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for these products or services.  The vast majority of Schlumberger’s services and product offerings are short-term in nature.  The time between invoicing and when payment is due under these arrangements is generally 30 to 60 days.

Revenue is occasionally generated from contractual arrangements that include multiple performance obligations.  Revenue from these arrangements is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price.  Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using expected costs plus margin.

Revenue is recognized for certain long-term construction-type contracts over time.  These contracts involve significant design and engineering efforts in order to satisfy custom designs for customer-specific applications.  Revenue is recognized as work progresses on each contract.  Progress is measured by the ratio of actual costs incurred to date on the project in relation to total estimated project costs.  The estimate of total project costs has a significant impact on both the amount of revenue recognized as well as the related profit on a project.  Revenue and profits on contracts can also be significantly affected by change orders and claims.  Due to the nature of these projects, adjustments to estimates of contract revenue and total contract costs may be required as work progresses.  Progress billings are generally issued upon completion of certain phases of work as stipulated in the contract.  Any expected losses on a project are recorded in full in the period in which they become probable.

Revenue in excess of billings related to contracts where revenue is recognized over time was $0.2 billion at June 30, 2018 and $0.3 billion at December 31, 2017.  Such amounts are included within Receivables less allowance for doubtful accounts in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Due to the nature of its business, Schlumberger does not have significant backlog.  Total backlog was $2.5 billion at June 30, 2018, of which approximately 56% is expected to be recognized as revenue over the next 12 months.

Billings and cash collections in excess of revenue was $0.8 billion at both June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.  Such amounts are included within Accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases.  This ASU requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases, with the exception of short-term leases.  This ASU is effective for Schlumberger on

January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted.  Based on its current lease portfolio, Schlumberger estimates that the adoption of this ASU will result in approximately $1.2 billion of additional assets and liabilities being reflected on its Consolidated Balance Sheet.
