Schlumberger plans to lay off more workers next year.
In a regulatory filing on Tuesday afternoon, the oilfield services giant said it expects to take a pre-tax restructuring charge of about $350 million related to the job cuts.
The filing did not specify how many jobs could be on the line.
The cuts would come "in light of expected reduced activity for 2016 and to streamline its support structure", Schlumberger said.
Shares were little changed in early afternoon trading, up by less than 1%. Year-to-date, they've dropped 10%.
Schlumberger has cut nearly 10,000 jobs this year in response to lower oil prices.
