Artisan Value Fund made the following comment about Schlumberger Limited (NYSE:SLB) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:

"Our top Q4 contributor was Schlumberger Limited (NYSE:SLB), the world’s largest oil services company. Shares of SLB rallied along with the broader energy complex, as structural global supply issues have supported rising commodity prices following years of underinvestment in new production. SLB is performing well in a competitive marketplace. The new management team is conservative, forward thinking and executing a good strategic plan to make the company less dependent upon commodity prices and capex. Management has driven the company’s refocused efforts to increase free cash flow and expand profit margins, a task made easier with the cooperating price of oil. We also like that the business model is becoming nimbler and more adaptive to market forces, as evidenced by its recent focus on contributing to the production of cleaner energy. No single customer is more than 10% of revenue, with global exposure very diversified across basins, customers and capital spending exposure. Additionally, in contrast to much of the energy sector, SLB has consistently generated positive free cash flow. Despite solid price appreciation, the stock remains attractively priced based on our estimates of normalized EPS."
