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 […]

The complexity inherent to operating a successful underground mine is easily missed by those who have never visited one—after all, the sprawling maze of tunnels and workings are hidden deep below the Earth’s surface. These mines are often located in geographically remote areas, making it difficult to get personnel and equipment onsite at short notice, […]
