Use or redistribute an asset or product for its original intended purpose or functionality.

The Digital Surface Inspector in the Production Systems Division uses machine learning algorithms to detect defects in valve gate surfaces, increasing the reuse of valve gates and reducing the need for 4,100 new units, thereby preventing more than 122,000 kilograms of scrap waste.

Restore or recondition an asset or product for a new use case, maintaining its original intended functionality or modernizing it to meet current needs.

In Reservoir Performance, the expanded capabilities of the network resulted in the refurbishment of more than 1,400 printed circuit boards to new-like condition, contributing to an estimated 1,600 metric tons reduction of CO₂e emissions.

Repurpose or remanufacture an asset or product to serve a different function than originally intended.

The Repair Network in Technology Lifecycle Management repurposed material from scrapped collars to locally remanufacture parts for different functionalities, avoiding waste. In 2023, they repaired or remanufactured more than 2,800 drilling collars and other components for new uses.

Reclaim material at the end of life to reduce landfill waste and the consumption of virgin materials.

The collection and reprocessing of decommissioned tungsten carbide matrix bits allows the material to be reused rather than discarded.

This program on average yields a minimum of six kilograms of avoided CO₂e emissions per kilogram of material recycled. In the period spanning 2020 through 2023, this has totaled more than 3,000 avoided metric tons of CO₂e emissions.
