News flow this week centers on contract wins and Middle East geopolitical exposure. SLB expanded real-time production monitoring work for Equinor's Johan Sverdrup Phase 3 in the North Sea, and Arabian Drilling signed a five-year deal with SLB Middle East for eight land rigs in Saudi Arabia tied to gas lump-sum turnkey operations. Against this, shares fell nearly 5% on 14 September after a Saudi Arabian oil pipeline closure following drone attacks, with Citigroup flagging SLB's high exposure to the Saudi market and the risk to drilling activity if the shutdown persists. Shares also declined 3.51% on 16 September, a steeper drop than the broader market's 0.45% decline.
Looking ahead, SLB reports next earnings on 16 October 2026, 26 days out and inside a typical 20-trading-day holding window; the prior quarter beat estimates ($0.55 versus $0.51) with a 9.1% reaction, and the company has beaten in 7 of the last 8 quarters. Seasonality over the next 20 trading days has averaged a 7.1% gain across 5 years, rising in 3 of them. All 18 covering analysts rate the stock buy, with a consensus target of $62.34.
