Geophysical exploration is a field with huge amount of computational resources needs. Typically, processing a geophysical survey takes from days to months using HPC resources in the range of PFlops. In addition, not one but many different HPC applications need to be in place to fulfil the range of processing needs in geophysical exploration activity. Finally, as HPC resources evolve so fast, a constant development cycle must be implemented so as to guarantee that the developed applications are able to extract the full power of the underlying hardware while giving accurate results.
