Dawson Geophysical Co. has pending applications before county officials to do seismic testing in the towns of Conklin, Binghamton and Kirkwood in Broome County, New York.

In December, 2008 the company was reported doing seismic testing in the Scranton, Pennsylvania area. According to the thedailyreview.com [1], the procedure followed went like this:

A seven- to eight-person crew runs several miles of data lines that are connected to vibration sensors, which are strategically placed along the line by using a global positioning system. Vibrations are then sent into the ground by “thumper trucks” that drive along the route and the sensors record impulses that return. After the data are gathered, they are sent to Dawson’s data processing center in Midland to be interpreted by analysts, who produce three-dimensional seismic data for major and independent oil and gas companies. The data provide a blueprint of the subsurface geology, diminishing the probability of marginal and dry well locations, according to Dawson’s Web site.

The company maintains seismic data processing centers in Houston and Midland, Texas as well as Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Dawson's home office is in Midland, Texas.

Stephen Jumper is the compnay's President and CEO.
