TGS is accelerating its AI/ML-driven seismic imaging and analytics by building solutions on AWS to surpass current industry performance. It will modernise TGS Imaging AnyWare on AWS and leverage cloud elasticity to further optimise processing workflows. TGS uses Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) to execute highly parallelised workloads, scaling quickly to millions of CPUs to achieve rapid turnaround times. By leveraging the latest NVIDIA instances and selectively adopting specialised AWS hardware accelerators will enable high-definition seismic imaging, including compute-intensive Elastic Full Waveform Inversion (eFWI), and deliver petabyte-scale multi-client data to customers on demand, said TGS. These solutions are built on a multi-region architecture, leveraging the AWS Nitro System to isolate and protect sensitive customer workloads.
Kristian Johansen, CEO of TGS, said: ‘By moving TGS Data Verse, the largest subsurface seismic library, and the TGS Imaging AnyWare platform to AWS, we are co-innovating to deliver an exploration-ready atlas of the subsurface. This collaboration translates subsurface data into strategic intelligence with unprecedented scale and speed, marking a fundamental shift that will accelerate prospect generation.’
TGS is deploying a multi-modal Subsurface Foundation Model (SFM) built on Amazon Bedrock and powered by Amazon SageMaker HyperPods. This model will simultaneously process diverse data types, to achieve a comprehensive subsurface understanding that has been previously unattainable.
Uwem Ukpong, vice president, AWS Industries, said: ‘Through Open Subsurface Data Universe (OSDU) Energy Data Integration with TGS, companies across the energy sector can seamlessly integrate data, optimise exploration workflows, reduce risk, and make more confident decisions through intelligent analysis of complex subsurface data.’
TGS has already migrated petabytes of data to the AWS cloud. Leveraging AWS global infrastructure, TGS has delivered advanced projects including eFWI in Brazil using in-country GPU capability, ensuring data sovereignty and low-latency processing for regional operations.
