51. Seismic data processing/ simulations
- Scalable, High Performance compute
- Large amount of data acquisition & transfer
- Security of highly sensitive data
- High availability and throughput
AWS cloud accelerates HPC capabilities, providing
instant scalability and elasticity to analyze massive
amounts of scientific data:
• Optimized tools to move large data stored on local
data center
• Performance-optimized Hadoop framework
• CPU intensive instances + placement groups
• Low latency & complete control over virtual
networking environment

52. Reservoir management
- Data collection of multiple sub-surface sensors
- Predictive analytics
- High availability in remote location
- High security level
AWS allows you to increase the speed of research by
running high performance computing in the cloud and to
reduce costs by providing Cluster Compute or Cluster
GPU servers on-demand without large capital
investments:
• Cluster GPU Instances for 3d processing and
visualization rooms
• AppStream for remote offices and on-site 3d
visualization

53. Production optimizations/ digital oil field
- Data collection of multiple surface & sub-surface
sensors
- Prediction to prevent failures and breakdowns
- All components integrate and communicate
- High availability in remote locations
The AWS cloud provides building blocks to create
innovative new applications:
• Big M2M – the convergence of M2M with Big
Data, we provide Big Data services such as EMR
(Hadoop on AWS), S3 and DynamoDB (NoSQL)
• AWS Marketplace provides a software
marketplace for the AWS cloud where clients can
buy third party M2M software platforms

57. Hess Uses AWS to Streamline Data Center Migration
• When Hess divested its Energy Marketing
division, the IT department had to create
a separate environment that could be
handed off to a buyer
• Working with APN partner, Nimbo, Hess
packaged and moved the infrastructure,
including 300 servers and almost 500 TB
of data, to the AWS Cloud
• Hess met the six-month divestiture
deadline and transferred the business to
the buyer in a 30-minute meeting
“The flexibility and scale of
AWS enabled us to rapidly
migrate a fully functional
infrastructure for our divested
business in just 6 months.”

Hess Corporation is a leading global independent
energy company

58. British Gas brings central heating control to smartphones with AWS
“ • British Gas started a project called Hive, part of its
We launched Hive towards the
end of 2013 and today we
have 75,000 customers… The
speed at which we delivered
Hive is directly related to our
decision to use AWS cloud
Seb Chakraborty
Head of Web and Platform Design
”
Connected Homes Strategy.
• Hive Active Heating allows users to control heating
and hot water remotely from mobile, laptop or
smartphones.
• Such a flexibility allows users to control heating
exactly how they need it and save up to £150 a year
on utility bills
British Gas uses AWS cloud for scaling the
project and to deliver API toolsets around it.

59. Oil & Gas area of cloud benefit
Exploration for new oil
Reservoir management
Risk management &
compliance
Cost optimization
Next generation energy
Extensive geophysical data, comprehensive analytics, faster workflows, and
access to specialized and often scarce expertise
Significantly faster data acquisition, processing, real-time simulation and
optimization of oil & gas reservoir to increase production and reserves
Secure and available data, audit trails and records management for safety,
regulatory and risk management purposes.
IAAS and PAAS’s pay-per-use model will allow companies to respond to
intensifying global competition, constant regulatory changes and cyclical
production to optimize costs, increase flexibility and scalability
Higher pace of innovation of what and how we consume energy – e.g. engaging
customers and suppliers, finding new energy sources, optimising consumptions mix
