WesternGeco is a geophysical services company. It is headquartered in the Schlumberger House on the property of London Gatwick Airport in Crawley, West Sussex, in Greater London.
==Background==
The company provides reservoir imaging, monitoring, and development services. The company, a business segment of Schlumberger, offers 3D and time-lapse seismic surveys, electromagnetic surveys, and multicomponent surveys for delineating prospects and reservoir management. It also provides geophysical, land and transition-zone acquisition, marine acquisition, electromagnetics, and data processing and reservoir seismic services. The company, formerly known as Western Geophysical Company, was founded in 1933.
The company was formed by the merger in 2000 of two of the world's largest seismic contractors, Western Geophysical and Geco-Prakla. Schlumberger, owners of Geco-Prakla paid cash to Baker Hughes, which then owned Western, for a 70% stake in a joint venture of the combined companies.〔(Completed merger of the surface seismic data acquisition and data processing interests of Schlumberger Limited and Baker Hughes Incorporated ), ''United Kingdom Office of Fair Trading'', 2000-12-21.〕 In May 2006, Schlumberger bought out Baker Hughes' 30% stake for a reported $2.4 billion, making WesternGeco one of its subsidiaries.〔(Schlumberger Financial News ), 2006-07-21〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2000s: Building on core strengths )〕
