Energy companies and Energy Services companies are trying to reduce risk in seeking new sources of energy and improve operating efficiencies. They are faced with fluctuating margins, challenging political environments, regulatory constraints and capacity pressures. To succeed in such an environment, solutions based on vSMP Foundation span 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.
