Innovation often starts with a shift in perspective — seeing possibilities where others see constraints, applying knowledge in unexpected ways and challenging long-held assumptions about what can be done. As SLB celebrates 100 years of innovation, our people are applying decades of energy expertise in new ways across the globe. Here are some of their stories. Nestor Campos, senior drilling engineer in Ecuador, explores how the Retina™️ at-bit imaging system marks the beginning of a new era in formation characterization and rock property evaluation, saving rig time and reducing operational risk: https://ow.ly/FPsY50ZlAVC Ahmed El-Toukhy, one of our directors for critical minerals, explains how lithium offers new opportunities to meet the demand for reliable, affordable energy in the Middle East — and how SLB is solving the long-standing technical challenges of lithium extraction: https://ow.ly/k2V650ZlAVE Romain Griffon, senior drilling engineer in the Netherlands, shares how fulfilling a client’s counterintuitive vision resulted in delivering the world’s first commercial closed-loop advanced geothermal system: https://ow.ly/aiLW50ZlAVA Together, these stories show that innovation is more than developing new technology. It’s about shifting mindsets, transferring knowledge across applications and challenging accepted limitations to create new possibilities. These approaches have driven SLB’s success for the past century and continue to help us shape the future of energy. #SLB100 #OurCenturyOurStories #Innovation
