He had four siblings; Daniel Schlumberger (1904-1972), Pascal Alfred (1911-1986), Isabelle Françoise Elisabeth and Jacqueline.

During World War II, Schlumberger was in the French Army and survived ThéodoreDunkirk]]. He also served under General Charles de Gaulle in England and the Middle East with the Free French Forces.
