EX-95 6 d404756dex95.htm MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES Mine Safety Disclosures

Exhibit 95

Mine Safety Disclosures

The following disclosure is provided pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which requires certain disclosures by companies required to file periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that operate mines regulated under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977.

The table that follows reflects citations, orders, violations and proposed assessments issued by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (the “MSHA”) to M-I LLC, which, following Schlumberger’s acquisition of Smith International, Inc., is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Schlumberger. The disclosure is with respect to the three months ended September 30, 2012. Due to timing and other factors, the data may not agree with the mine data retrieval system maintained by the MSHA at www.MSHA.gov.

Amounts included are the total dollar value of proposed or outstanding assessments received from MSHA on or before September 30, 2012, regardless of whether the assessment has been challenged or appealed, for citations and orders occurring during the three months ended September 30, 2012. Citations and orders can be contested and appealed, and as part of that process, are sometimes reduced in severity and amount, and sometimes dismissed. The number of citations, orders, and proposed assessments vary by inspector and also vary depending on the size and type of the operation.

* Assessments for five additional citations under Section 104(a) (three at Battle Mountain Grinding Plant, one at Galveston GBT Barite Grinding Plant, and one at Greystone Mine) and one order under Section 104(g)(1) at Battle Mountain Grinding Plant have not yet been proposed.
