Schlumberger Workers Sought by U.S. on Iran, Sudan Sanctions

The U.S. government has interviewed one Schlumberger Ltd. worker and wants access to four other current and former employees as part of a probe into potential sanctions violations in Iran and Sudan, according to federal court documents.

The unnamed worker for the world’s biggest oil-services provider was interviewed on March 8 about a matter related to a company Schlumberger acquired in 2014. That undisclosed company was under investigation by the Justice Department, and Schlumberger later disclosed a potential “matter” related to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, according to filings.
