    Net debt was $4.3 billion at June 30, 2011—$320 million higher than at the end of the previous quarter.
 
    Liquidity was used primarily due for stock repurchases of $707 million and capital expenditures of $951 million during the quarter, offset in part by $385 million from divestiture of Global Connectivity Services.
 
 
  Net Debt represents gross debt less cash, short-term investments and fixed income investments, held to maturity.

6)   How did interest income and interest expense change during the second quarter of 2011?
 
    Interest income of $9 million was down $1 million sequentially. Interest expense of $69 million decreased $5 million sequentially.
 
7)   Why was there a difference between the consolidated Schlumberger pretax income and the total pretax income of Oilfield Services and Distribution?
 
    The difference consisted of such items as corporate expenses and interest income and interest expense not allocated to the segments, as well as interest on postretirement medical benefits, stock-based compensation expense and the amortization expense associated with intangible assets recorded in connection with the Smith merger.
 
8)   What was the effective tax rate (ETR), excluding charges, for the second quarter of 2011?
 
    The ETR for the second quarter of 2011 was 24.8% compared to 23.6% in the prior quarter, excluding charges in both periods.
 
    The ETR for full-year 2011 is expected to be in the mid twenties, although some volatility may be experienced in the ETR on a quarterly basis primarily due to the geographic mix of earnings.
 
9)   What is the capex guidance for 2011?
 
    Schlumberger capex is expected to approach $4.2 billion for the full-year 2011. Capex in 2010 was $2.91 billion.
 
10)   How was the segment reporting changed in the first quarter of 2011?
 
    Beginning with the first quarter of 2011, Schlumberger’s primary reporting is based on the three Product Groups: Reservoir Characterization, Drilling and Reservoir Production. These three groups comprise what is now referred to as “Oilfield Services”. In addition, we now report our Distribution business as a separate and distinct segment. Geographical results now reflect the results of all three of the Groups, including the legacy Smith Oilfield and M-I SWACO businesses. Furthermore, the results of WesternGeco are also now included in both the Group and Geographic results and are no longer reported separately. The Distribution business, which is predominantly North American-centric, is not included in the geographic results.
 
    All prior period amounts have been restated to conform to the new structure.
