Schlumberger Information System (SIS) has developed Intel-based turnkey cluster solutions to simplify and expedite the deployment of advanced simulation capabilities that will allow oil and gas companies to achieve large-scale overnight simulation runs using the SIS ECLIPSE solution.

     

Scope

ECLIPSE Parallel splits a single simulation run into many smaller computations that are each processed by individual processors reducing the time taken to run any given simulation. Numerical computations for reservoir simulation are spread over many Intel Itanium 2 processors, all controlled by a Linux cluster head node. ECLIPSE Parallel automatically manages this process to maximise the available processing power and seamlessly recompiles the results into a single view.

The effect of the Intel technology is to boost instruction throughput and deliver outstanding performance at a very affordable price. It also provides headroom and flexibility to scale for optimum functionality and return on investment as demand grows.

Customer benefits

  • Faster test completions
  • Larger data models
  • More accurate results
  • Lower total cost of ownership.

Key components used in the solution

  • HP Integrity rx2600 server based on Itanium 2 processors
  • Pre-configured clusters of 16-128 nodes with Myrinet high speed interconnect
  • RedHat Linux Advanced Server 2.1
  • Platform Computing Load Scheduling Facility (LSF) 5.0
  • Message Passing Interface (MPICH/GM)
  • Rapid Deployment and other Linux management tools including Scali, Scyld, ClusterWare
  • SIS ECLIPSE Parallel™ software.
