The integration focuses on improving productivity and accuracy, allowing tasks to be completed more swiftly.
RiVA, developed by GeoComputing, is a comprehensive hardware and software solution tailored for the exploration and production (E&P) industry.
It combines embedded storage, a shared parallel file system, virtualised servers and workstation management.
The system can be deployed on-premises, in a private cloud or as a fully managed service by GeoComputing.

By GlobalDataGeoComputing Group head of business development Jay Kirby said: “The Leostream platform is an essential element of RiVA to provide E&P employees with security, reliability and power for complex workloads, from anywhere, on any device.
“Leostream was built to accommodate sophisticated environments and applications including high performance/low latency and advanced visual requirements like geospatial mapping, imaging, 3D rendering and modelling.”
GeoComputing created RiVA to address challenges such as insufficient performance, complex work environments, large data sets and high costs.
The platform leverages components like NVIDIA graphics processing units, Lenovo hardware and the Leostream platform to optimise petro-technical workflows.
The companies said this integration has resulted in significant returns on investment for users, with some achieving savings up to four-times their initial purchase price.
The Leostream platform offers secure access to high-end 3D workstations that are compatible with the Mechdyne TGX display protocol, ideal for scientific applications.
It enables E&P workers to access essential data and applications from any location and device, enhancing flexibility and efficiency in exploration projects.
By managing end-user access, Leostream allows companies to analyse field data in real time from any location, reducing the need for large field deployments.
Leostream VP sales and alliances Randy Foster said: “Companies supplying the world’s energy needs are challenged to find infrastructure capable of supporting their work, but the RiVA platform is the result of years of battle-testing in GeoComputing’s projects and deployments.
“RiVA combines multiple enterprise-class products to give oil and gas companies the tools to be productive, and with Leostream that can be fully remote, in the field or in the office.”
The RiVA platform is specifically designed to handle large data sets and support both local and remote work, addressing the cost challenges of public cloud infrastructure.
The Leostream Remote Desktop Access Platform provides a comprehensive solution for remote access, maintaining productivity, controlling costs and ensuring security with zero-trust authentication and authorisation.
Its connection management system replaces traditional virtual private networks with an efficient gateway, granting users access to authorised resources based on their location and device.
