Polarcus has entered into an agreement with DUG to utilise their hardware and software for data processing and seismic acquisition quality control (QC) onboard the company’s entire fleet of seismic vessels.
DUG will provide workstations, storage, processing nodes, and software onboard Polarcus vessels.
This marks the sixth year of Polarcus’ commitment to DUG technology for the provision of data processing and QC services.
Further, Polarcus also signed a three-year agreement to leverage the DUG McCloud platform to significantly enhance their Priority Processing and imaging offering to E&P clients.
DUG McCloud is a customer-focussed and collaborative cloud solution that encapsulates DUG’s high-performance computing (HPC) environment.
The innovative platform allows clients to combine HPC as a service (HPCaaS), professional services, and software to suit their needs.
The deal includes compute, disk storage, online archive, and DUG’s processing and imaging software, DUG Insight.
Polarcus will utilise the DUG McCloud platform at Polarcus office locations in Houston, London, Singapore, and Dubai.
“The ongoing collaboration between DUG and Polarcus capitalises on the aligned strengths of both organisations: strong cultures of innovation and delivery of excellence, Polarcus CEO Duncan Eley commented.
Furthermore, the DUG McCloud platform is an important component of our CIRRUS™ offering which enables Polarcus to deliver clients near real-time access to high-fidelity seismic data being acquired and allows informed exploration decisions to be made faster.”
