Seismic Interpretation is the extraction of subsurface geologic information from seismic data. Due to the large data volumes and a move to 3D seismic interpretation, end users typically require high-spec workstations with 3D graphics cards and large, high-resolution monitors to make the most efficient use of the expensive data and machines. High latency in the […]

About OSDU OSDU provides an industry initiative that aims to create an open-source technology-agnostic data platform for the energy industry. The OSDU platform supports most data types found in the energy industry. The components of OSDU include a common data model, APIs, and data governance frameworks to facilitate seamless integration and interoperability of energy data […]

A reliable and secure energy supply is at the heart of today’s world. Oil and gas companies are facing a perfect storm of operational and business challenges. Transition to renewable energy sources, volatile commodity prices, increasingly strict environmental regulations, increasing geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty, and all amidst pressure to sustainably find, produce and refine hydrocarbons […]

Overview SGN is a UK gas distribution network operator that manages the distribution network for natural and green gas to almost six million homes and businesses across Northern Ireland, Scotland, and southern England. SGN not only provides the management of the gas network (the company owns and operates 74,000km of gas mains, including high-pressure [HP] […]

This blog is part 1 of a two-blog series on digital rock and outcrop reconstruction and analysis on AWS. Part 1 will focus on digital rock analysis (DRA) and fluid flow simulation on AWS. Part 2 will focus on digital outcrop models for large-scale structural analysis. The key to accelerating research and production in the […]

Energy companies operate sophisticated technical infrastructure with complex requirements, and they need to share data securely across application and company boundaries. These companies are increasingly focused on achieving agile operations, responding rapidly to change, and developing new solutions in an evolving business context, including energy transition. However, conventional approaches to data sharing are often cumbersome, […]

Lunar Energy (Lunar) has a mission to power homes around the world with endless clean energy. Recognizing the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change, Lunar is focused on building the digital infrastructure needed to build a resilient, distributed energy system. As homes electrify by adding distributed energy resources (DERs)—such as solar […]

When was the last time you thought about how the power stays on? Probably not since you lost power in a storm. We take it for granted that the electricity and natural gas will flow. In today’s world, electricity and gas are a core foundation of the economy and of society, making energy one of […]

Operational technology (OT) data refers to the data generated by sensors and other devices used in industrial settings to monitor and control physical processes. Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, data historians, and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are examples of technologies that generate OT data. SCADA systems are used to monitor and control industrial […]

Industry Context In the utility industry, there is a wide range of devices and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems that operate in an on-premises environment. With the growth of renewables and distributed energy resources (DERs), electric utilities need to change their energy planning models and operations to maintain reliability and stability of the […]
