Schlumberger will spend about $1.7 billion for a minority stake in a big Russian energy company at a time when the country's relations with the West are under strain and as energy prices hit multiyear lows. The world's largest oilfield services company will pay about $22 per share to acquire a 45.6 percent stake in Eurasia Drilling Co., which will go private and delist from the London Stock Exchange.
