The Company
SeaSCAN was founded in 1984 by Harold P. Barber, Sr., who remains the president today.
The History
SeaSCAN worked closely with Shell Development Company in Houston to develop the Tri-Cluster® portable point seismic energy source. In 1988, the Tri-Cluster® point source worldwide
license was exclusively awarded to SeaSCAN. SeaSCAN has sublicensed the Tri-Cluster® to Veritas DGC, Western Geco, Grant Geophysical, Input/Output, Paulsson Geophysical, Terra Seismic Services, Fugro, Williamson & associates, Halliburton, Baker, Atlas, and Shell.
Research and development
Projects include Energy Research Clearing House (ERCH) and Texaco for the Teal South 4-C/4-D project, multiple modeling projects as well as Far-Field data acquisition and report by Dr. W. Rodney Cotton, Western Atlas, and Dr. Les Hatton, Oakwood Computing, UK.
