Cluster processing of reservoir data takes supercomputing mainstream Mark M. Ades - Microsoft; Jim Thom - JOA Oil and Gas
High-performance computing (HPC) is becoming more affordable and easier to use. Combined with today’s volume interpretation, modeling, and simulation software, cluster-based HPC is entering the oil and gas mainstream. Exploration and production companies are using HPC for exploration and to tackle complex, production-oriented algorithmic challenges.
Cluster-based computing and advanced reservoir modeling are used to drive production and to save costs in mature and offshore fields.
The nature of computing in the oil and gas sector is changing. Advances in computing and modeling systems and the need to find reserves under more challenging geological conditions, and to affordably produce older and more challenging fields, drives E&P companies to leverage HPC and sophisticated modeling and simulation systems. The goal is to tackle geomechanics and uncertainty management and to more effectively manage complex problems in mature fields....
