GeoComputing Launches GEN 6 RiVA Platform with AI Tool Support of Key Oil & Gas Software Vendors
Share
GeoComputing's RiVA private cloud platform is the most powerful platform in the E&P industry. RiVA addresses all challenges common to E&P users, such as insufficient performance, complex work environments, large data sets, local and remote locations, lack of specialty support resources, high cost and time to deploy. Highly efficient and performant, RiVA can increase productivity and accuracy so dramatically that tasks that took days on previous infrastructure can be completed in hours.
With key software vendors adding AI tools to their existing applications, GeoComputing's GEN 6 Platform ships with AI-ready GPUs and workstation profiles capable of adding AI toolkits designed to enhance operational efficiency. This approach builds insight and confidence in leveraging AI tools in the search for hydrocarbons by utilizing sophisticated algorithms within familiar applications that geoscientists and operators already trust.
To further achieve these advancements, the GEN 6 platform incorporates AI-supported GPUs from NVIDIA, providing the necessary computational power for demanding AI workloads. Additionally, the platform introduces configurable workstation profiles to accommodate varying GPU memory requirements, ensuring flexibility based on specific user needs. Recognizing modern deployment practices, the platform also supports containerization, enabling seamless integration of AI solutions that require this architecture.
'At Eliis, we are very happy to be collaborating with GeoComputing to continue our mission to accelerate and automate subsurface workflows,' said Alex Wilson, Principal Geoscience Advisor, Eliis SAS. 'By coupling the PaleoScan™ geoscience and RiVA private cloud platforms, we will develop and deliver AI solutions that will unlock new geoscience insights with unprecedented performance.'
By focusing on maintaining the integrity of the overall environment and providing a measured and controlled approach to both operational and cost efficiency as clients progress along the AI journey, GeoComputing ensures it remains a reliable partner for operators navigating the complexities of AI. By utilizing the latest edition of RiVA, operators can harness the advantages of a well-established system that supports comprehensive geoscience application workflows while seamlessly integrating AI tools both now and in the future.
The RiVA Private Cloud Platform offers a compelling alternative to the public cloud or other emerging technologies for those dealing with a tremendous amount of unstructured data with challenges that are not easy to overcome. Operators moving to the public cloud with AI initiatives that are not fully vetted often experience a degradation of the user experience that significantly increases IT operating costs, negating the offset by AI efficiencies.
'GeoComputing differentiates itself by maintaining an unwavering commitment to delivering peak performance for end users while simultaneously reducing operating costs,' said Jay Kirby, VP of Strategic Solutions at GeoComputing. 'Unlike other platforms, we achieve this balance by enabling AI from application vendors without compromising the foundational capabilities that users rely on. Our approach ensures that operators can embrace AI-enhanced workflows without the trade-offs of inflated expenses or degraded performance, providing a harmonious integration of cutting-edge technology with practical efficiency.'

ORANGE, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avangrid, Inc., a leading energy company and member of the Iberdrola Group, today announced that it has placed its 80 th U.S. power generation project into operation, marking a major milestone for the company as it provides energy to homes and businesses in 23 states across the country. Over the past six months, Avangrid announced that it achieved commercial operation on three new solar projects in Texas, Ohio, and California, adding nearly 600 megawatts (MW) to the grid, enough energy to power over 100,000 homes. This achievement builds on Avangrid's commitment to helping the nation meet its growing demand for energy while bolstering the U.S. economy. 'For over two decades, Avangrid has been delivering energy to homes and businesses across the nation, and today that portfolio has grown to 80 facilities spanning from coast to coast,' said Jose Antonio Miranda, Avangrid CEO. 'Achieving this milestone comes at a critical time as we work to bring new energy capacity online to meet growing electricity demand from a variety of sources, particularly the construction of new data centers. In just the past six months, Avangrid has achieved commercial operation at three new projects, demonstrating our ability to meet the needs of our customers and bring needed capacity to increasingly strained electric grids. We will continue to collaborate with our partners as we work to secure American energy independence and support jobs and economic growth across the U.S.' In March 2025, Avangrid announced that it achieved commercial operations at its True North Solar project in Falls County, Texas. This 321 MWdc project is supporting Meta's operations, including its upcoming data center in Temple, TX. In June 2025, Avangrid announced commercial operations at Camino Solar, a 57 MWdc project in Kern County, California as well as commercial operations at Powell Creek Solar, a 202 MWdc project in Putnam County, Ohio. Communities across the country realize tangible economic and social benefits thanks to Avangrid's portfolio of projects. These 80 operating projects supported over 12,000 jobs (direct, indirect, and induced) last year. Additionally, the company's power generation business contributed $112 million in taxes to state and local jurisdictions, paid $97 million in lease payments, and delivered $2.1 million in community support in 2024.

The company already has approximately 1.5 gigawatts (GW) of capacity that supports data centers with an additional 650 MW under construction or will be under construction soon. Avangrid is actively working on new projects that will help meet expected energy demand growth in the coming years.

BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Visit Bellevue, the official destination marketing organization for Bellevue, Washington, unveils a bold new tourism brand identity and campaign in partnership with creative agency 62ABOVE. The rebrand reflects Bellevue's evolution from a quiet tech and innovation hub into a modern, globally connected basecamp city for Seattle and Pacific Northwest travel. The brand launch kicks off with a new campaign, 'Unexpect It,' to capture the spirit of a city that consistently defies expectations – perfectly positioned between lakes and mountains for easy access to wonder and nature, while offering refined city experiences like a bustling restaurant scene, plush new hotels, and world-class retail and entertainment. 'Bellevue has transformed in ways that even locals are still catching up to,' says Brad Jones, Visit Bellevue's Executive Director. Share 'Bellevue has transformed in ways that even locals are still catching up to,' says Brad Jones, Visit Bellevue's Executive Director. 'This brand reflects Bellevue's pulse – creative, global, welcoming, and constantly evolving. It's a place where culture is celebrated, community is strong, flavor is savored, adventure is invigorating, and discovery is around every corner. Our research suggests that there's only one way to experience Bellevue: Unexpect It.' A SPIRIT OF INNOVATION: The announcement comes at a pivotal moment for the destination, following its strongest tourism year to date in 2024 and a remarkable wave of growth. In the past year alone, Bellevue has welcomed 80 new restaurants, the region's first InterContinental hotel, and new experiences like an award-winning walking food tour, culinary weeks, electric lake cruises, and a downtown recreation center offering easy access to kayaking and paddleboarding. Rooted in its tech-forward DNA, Bellevue is a city built with intention - where innovation isn't just part of the past, but a driving force behind the future. Every detail of the visitor experience reflects years of thoughtful planning and a deep connection to Pacific Northwest values, ultimately creating a destination that provides walkability, sustainability, and accessibility for all. From The Bellhop, the city's all-electric rideshare program, to its ambitious goal of becoming carbon-free by 2040, Bellevue is leading by example. That momentum continues with the launch of the East Link light rail in 2026, just ahead of the FIFA World Cup, which will connect Sea-Tac Airport, Downtown Bellevue, and Downtown Seattle in minutes. Together, these efforts are transforming Bellevue into one of the most connected, car-free, guilt-free, sustainable travel destinations in the country. The new brand arrives right on time to reflect that vision. A BOLD NEW LOOK: LOGO & BRAND IDENTITY As part of the rebrand, Visit Bellevue introduces a new logo that honors the city's roots while looking boldly to the future. Inspired by Bellevue's identity as 'a city within a park', the design blends clean modern fonts with a handwritten script, capturing both its role as a thriving tech hub and its laidback, nature-connected lifestyle. Subtle illustrations of mountain peaks, evergreen trees, and a guiding compass rose reflect Bellevue's unique position as a gateway to adventure with easy access to Greater Seattle, three national parks, ferries and islands, Washington wine country, and endless outdoor pursuits. The result is a visual identity that mirrors the destination: innovative yet grounded, sophisticated yet approachable, and always inviting exploration. 'Working with Visit Bellevue is an incredible opportunity for 62ABOVE. We can't wait to showcase the city's incredible story through a powerful brand narrative that resonates with both locals and visitors alike,' says Greg Carson, President and COO of 62ABOVE. 'Bellevue is a city rich in innovation and natural beauty. Together, we will create a brand that reflects the destination's unique character.' A FRESH NEW MESSAGE: UNEXPECT IT Bellevue's new brand rollout launches with a new campaign: Unexpect It. After months of research and community input, one theme rose to the surface: Bellevue surprises people. The new message captures what travelers consistently say after visiting the destination—that it defied their expectations and delighted them with the unexpected at every turn. From its dynamic dining scene and lush parks to its welcoming local spirit, visitors are continually amazed by all they find here. This spirit of discovery and surprise now anchors the destination's story. The new messaging will unfold across digital, social, print, and experiential platforms, inviting travelers to explore a city that balances the energy of a global hub with the calm of the Pacific Northwest. That same spirit is brought to life in the newly reimagined Mobile Welcome Center, now called The VueFinder, An UnOrdinary Welcome Center. This mobile extension of the brand is designed to meet visitors where they are—whether at local events, parks, or busy downtown corridors. With a playful and people-first approach, the VueFinder helps travelers uncover a place where upscale experiences are approachable, natural beauty is always nearby, and the atmosphere feels warm, inviting, and intentional.
