Case Study: CGG achieves scalable, high-performance geoscience processing of hundreds of petabytes with NetApp E-Series

CGG Fuels Resource Discovery with On-Demand Geoscience Processing

CGG, a global geoscience leader with 30 imaging centers, analyzes hundreds of petabytes of seismic data to produce detailed 3D images of the Earth’s subsurface. The company needed a cost-effective, high-performance storage solution that could scale to hundreds of petabytes and support timely, uninterrupted processing for its Geovation analytics.

CGG standardized on NetApp E-Series storage across its centers—an easily scalable, modular system that offered the best price/performance for its workloads. The deployment enabled high-throughput processing of massive datasets with zero downtime for 20 years, accelerating project delivery, supporting nondisruptive growth, and consistently delivering actionable insights to clients.
