What this does not establish

Acquisition is complete, but the announced AI model collaboration and integration work remain prospective in the reviewed evidence. Do not frame the acquired software installed base as SLB AI adoption.

Analyst inference: The acquisition buys workflow distribution and an installed subsurface user base, while the AI strategy remains prospective until post-close products and adoption are documented.
