Another part of this duty would taking an active role in the data stewardship, which is to track client data making sure it is correctly segregated, named and stored correctly at all times while in SLB hands, as well as making sure that all data and backups of the data are removed a the end of a project in accordance to both SLB standards and signed agreements with the clients who own the data.
