SLB and NVIDIA’s collaboration dates back to 2008. By utilising NVIDIA’s graphics processing units for subsurface imaging and geoscience interpretation, the companies have set a precedent for innovation.

Through the years, they have worked in tandem to enhance every generation of SLB’s high-performance computing and visualisation technologies on the Delfi platform.

The integration of NVIDIA NeMo and NVIDIA NIM inference microservices into SLB’s offerings will provide customers with a platform to exploit generative AI within their technical workflows.

NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang stated: “AI offers the energy industry an extraordinary tool for sustainably providing the resource that powers life across our planet.

“Custom models created by SLB leveraging NVIDIA NeMo will provide the industry’s scientists and engineers unprecedented insight to speed their work in optimising the energy supplies today and unlocking the clean energy innovations of tomorrow.”
