Exploration and Production

NVIDIA GPU-accelerated computing platforms have been instrumental in supporting Eni’s exploration activity, improving our ability to turn around advanced seismic imaging tasks in a shorter time and with a higher accuracy.

Seismic Data Processing

Whether you’re using reverse time migration (RTM), Kirchhoff, or full-waveform inversion (FWI) algorithms, seismic processing on NVIDIA GPUs can reduce the time to oil by processing seismic data up to 5X faster than using CPUs alone. By using NVIDIA GPUs, geophysicists processing seismic surveys can apply advanced filters and interpret results on the most complex datasets.

Pipeline Optimization

Leverage big data and AI systems to optimize how you fill a pipeline, detect corrosion to identify potential leaks, and automate ultrasonic flow meters to increase throughput.. These technologies can also be used to monitor the locations of transports and verify their security.

Other areas include demand forecasting to optimize commodity trading and  shipping and pipeline capacity optimization.

Using deep learning and machine learning algorithms, oil and gas companies can determine the best way to optimize their operations as conditions change.

Predictive Maintenance

Avoid blackouts, downtimes, and unnecessary maintenance costs by identifying discrepancies in machinery in real time and predicting the remaining useful life of equipment. With GPU-based deep learning servers like NVIDIA® DGX 1™, well operators can visualize and analyze massive volumes of production and sensor data such as pump pressures, flow rates, and temperatures.

Other areas of focus include capacity optimization, economic forecasting, and site surveillance. 

 

Performance Optimization

Increase the reliability and performance of your refining assets by identifying the root cause of underperformance, virtually testing operational or asset changes, and minimizing unanticipated risks of proposed changes.
