In an industry where time is critical, ECHELON stands apart as the first GPU-native reservoir simulator. Join the pioneers from Stone Ridge Technology for a live webinar exploring how GPU architecture has revolutionised performance and resolved long-standing bottlenecks in reservoir simulation.
In this session, experts will share real-world insights, the company’s roots in high-performance computing (HPC) and how the founders reimagined reservoir simulation for a new era of hardware. You will also gain valuable takeaways on emerging hardware trends, next-gen accelerators and how ECHELON continues to push the boundaries of HPC in reservoir simulation.
