Aramco says the system will deliver seven times the compute capacity of its current upstream computing infrastructure and is planned for delivery in early 2027. It will be used for seismic data processing and reservoir modeling, to improve exploration efficiency and recovery rates from existing Saudi fields. Abdul Hameed Al-Dughaither, Aramco's executive vice president of EXPEC and drilling, said the project is aimed at unlocking new reserves and optimizing recovery.","ar":"اتفقت أرامكو السعودية و«حلول stc» على نشر حاسوب فائق الأداء من الجيل الجديد لأعمال التنقيب والإنتاج في أرامكو، بعقد تبلغ قيمته 372.5 مليون دولار (1.4 مليار ريال). وتقول أرامكو إن النظام سيوفّر قدرة حوسبة تعادل سبعة أضعاف قدرة البنية الحاسوبية الحالية لأعمال التنقيب والإنتاج، ومن المقرر تسليمه مطلع عام 2027. وسيُستخدم في معالجة البيانات السيزمية ونمذجة المكامن، لرفع كفاءة الاستكشاف ومعدلات الاستخلاص من الحقول القائمة في المملكة. وقال عبدالحميد الدغيثر، النائب التنفيذي للرئيس لهندسة البترول والتطوير والحفر في أرامكو، إن المشروع يهدف إلى اكتشاف احتياطيات جديدة وتحسين معدلات الاستخلاص."},"entities":["Aramco","stc","solutions by stc"],"figures":[{"label":"contract value","label_ar":"قيمة العقد","value":372.5,"unit":"USD m"},{"label":"compute vs current upstream systems (times)","label_ar":"قدرة الحوسبة مقارنة بالأنظمة الحالية (ضعف)","value":7,"unit":"count"}],"sources":[{"url":"https://www.aramco.com/en/news-media/news/2026/aramco-and-solutions-by-stc-collaborate-to-deploy-next-generation-supercomputer","publisher":"Aramco","title":"Aramco and solutions by stc collaborate to deploy next-generation supercomputer, powering Upstream digital excellence","published":"2026-05-06"}],"verification":"verified","urls":{"en":"https://cicadaconsultancy.online/en/news/aramco-solutions-by-stc-supercomputer-2026","ar":"https://cicadaconsultancy.online/ar/news/aramco-solutions-by-stc-supercomputer-2026","markdown_en":"https://cicadaconsultancy.online/en/news/aramco-solutions-by-stc-supercomputer-2026.md","markdown_ar":"https://cicadaconsultancy.online/ar/news/aramco-solutions-by-stc-supercomputer-2026.md"},"image":"https://cicadaconsultancy.online/images/articles/aramco-solutions-by-stc-supercomputer-2026.jpg"}}
