WesternGeco is not a tiny lizard in the desert Southwest, but a giant seismic monitoring company that provides reservoir imaging, monitoring, and development services to oil and gas clients worldwide. The company's operations include land and marine seismic products and services, as well as multiclient services (including extensive libraries of survey data and database analysis). WesternGeco provides 3-D, 4-D, and multicomponent surveys. Formed in 2000, WesternGeco married the seismic survey and analysis operations of two oil field service titans: Schlumberger's Geco-Prakla unit and Baker Hughes' Western Geophysical unit. In 2006 Schlumberger acquired Baker Hughes' 30% stake in the company for $2.4 billion. To read the full description, subscribe now.
