Show Information
CERAWeek will be held 23–27, March 2026 in Houston, Texas, at the Hilton Americas-Houston and the George R. Brown Convention Center.
The world is facing its greatest balancing act: meeting growing demand for reliable, accessible, and affordable energy while advancing the transition to lower-carbon energy systems. The path forward will look different in every region, shaped by local resources, priorities, and infrastructure.
At SLB, we believe technology is the key. As a global technology company driving energy innovation for a balanced planet, we work with customers across the energy landscape to improve performance, expand access to energy, and reduce emissions.
At CERAWeek, our executives will share how we are applying technology to address the industry’s biggest challenges—from adapting AI and digital platforms for energy operations to advancing geothermal and accelerating industrial decarbonization at scale.
