• Delete. The Forbes story would appear to be the only source that's both reliable, and not of limited interest and circulation. The rest would appear to be various white papers from industry groups and the like. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:22, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per Smerdis' assessment of the sources. Does not pass WP:CORP. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:40, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. I think the company passes the general notability guideline. The specialized publications (Arabian Oil & Gas and Upstream (newspaper)) cited as references in the article are both reliable sources. – Eastmain (talk • contribs) 23:37, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to Schlumberger. The company is pretty obviously notable, and the consulting arm is a significant part of the company.--Michig (talk) 07:03, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
