Talk:Geco (Geophysical Company of Norway)

Scoping
As of March 31, 2018, this article is mostly about the history of the Norwegian company Geco, 1972 - 1993. Geco-Prakla was established as late as in 1993, after Schlumbergers acquisition of the remaining shares of Prakla and formed Geco-Prakla. The Geco-Prakla company got a lifespan from 1993 to 2000. In 2000, Geco-Prakla was merged with the Western Geophysical division of Baker Hughes in a joint venture named WesternGeco. The Geco-Prakla represented an intermediate period for both Prakla-Seismos, a German owned company until 1991, and the company Geco, a Norwegian company until 1986. Both were acquired by Schlumberger and later joined with Western Geophysical.

Prakla-Seismos deserves its own article, since it was among the 2-5 most important players in the seismic survey marketplace, with a history starting from 1921. A Prakla-Seismos article can possible to be created by a translation from de:Prakla-Seismos. Also Geco needs its separate article, and I move Geco-Prakla to Geco (Geophysical Company of Norway) reasoned by th explained above. --Roarjo (talk) 20:05, 31 March 2018 (UTC)
