Thread regarding Schlumberger Ltd. layoffs

Wow I just heard that WesternGeco is to be sold next year.

This is very surprising as it is one of a very few that are actually making money. Obviously somebody knows a lot about the future of seismic exploration

Whoever said WesternGeco has great managers is really ignorant. This company is extremely mismanaged from top to bottom. Take a poll of clients and you'll find WesternGeco is rated as one of the worst (if not the worst) seismic processing company out there. Clients tend to throw bids out from WesternGeco due to the bid being extremely high and WesternGeco has very bad reputation for not handling the basics of wavelet processing correctly. I'm surprised they are still in business.

Awesome. Sooner the better. The only segment that has superb knowledge, great managers who take pride in their work and people. Separation will do a lot of good to Westerngeco.
