Streamed memorial 24th July details at https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/sugar-land-tx/tebis-llobet-10271079

Gordon Mowat advised with great sadness that that Tebis Llobet died peacefully at home in Sugar Land, Texas, with his wife Monica and his sons Eric and Alan by his side.

Tebis had been fighting cancer for several years, even as he continued to work for Geomechanics International/BHI. Just on Saturday Tebis texted me, asking me to come to see him and say our farewells, but I  was regrettably unable to do so. But we were able to exchange some lovely words by text, he was very weak and unable to talk for more than a very short time.

I have been in touch with another close old friend, Pedro Ivo de Assis, in Rio de Janeiro, who was able to visit Tebis a couple of weeks ago, he travelled to Houston for that, the three of us had worked closely together in the early days of GeoQuest (later SIS) in Latin America in the early 1990s. And another old friend, Sergio Kostek, graduated from Universidade de São Paulo in the same class as Tebis, and who was a colleague of mine in SDR Ridgefield in late 1980s was also able to visit Tebis from his home in Florida. So the Schlumberger family of friends were with Tebis.

Tebis started his career with Wireline in Brazil in 1982 and worked extensively across Latin America before moving to Schlumberger Interpretation Services in Caracas in 1991

Tebis Llobet passed away peacefully in his home on July 14th, 2021 surrounded by his loving family. He fought a brave 7-year battle with cancer. Tebis was born in São Paulo, Brazil on October 14th, 1957 to Marcela and Joan Llobet. He had an incredibly curious mind and a life-long passion for learning. After graduating as a Naval Engineer from the University of São Paulo, Tebis entered the Oil & Gas Industry. He was passionate about engineering and had a wonderful 39 year career with assignments across the globe, including Brazil, Peru, Venezuela, Argentina, Mexico, Russia and the USA. He continued working throughout his fight with cancer until just weeks before his passing. Tebis had many hobbies and interests including home brewing, cheese-making, distilling, bread-making, tinkering with engines and solving mechanical challenges. Yet he also had a deep love of music (especially British prog rock such as King Crimson) and films, most notably Sci-Fi flicks such as Blade Runner. Furthermore he was an avid soccer/futebol fan and was especially supportive of FC Barcelona. He spent countless hours coaching his sons to play competitive soccer and watching international competitions with them. Indeed spending time with his family and friends was his greatest pleasure. He especially enjoyed entertaining and cooking, and he had a natural ability to make people laugh, engage, relax and feel welcome. He is survived by his loving wife of 40 years, Monica, as well as sons Eric & Alan, his mother Marcela, his brothers Robbis & Erbis, and his nieces Gisela & Daniela.The family request friends and family that attend to dress comfortably. Tebis had a tremendous love for children and their presence always brought him much joy.
