Energy
Energy companies and energy services companies are always looking for ways to reduce risk in seeking new sources of energy and improve operational efficiencies.
In addition to the challenges of exploring, extracting, refining and delivering energy sources they are also grappling with fluctuating margins, challenging political environments, regulatory constraints and capacity pressures. To succeed in such a difficult environment, Energy companies have turned to solutions based on vSMP Foundation across the entire workflow: to increase production yields, discover new energy sources, and run simulations. As with other industries, solutions based on vSMP Foundation have the advantage of offering high memory and memory bandwidth required by most reservoir and volume interpretation applications and the higher number of processors required by the seismic processing applications. In addition, leveraging the power of commodity x86 infrastructure coupled with the significantly lower costs of system hardware provides the high performance they expect and the significantly lower costs Energy companies appreciate.
