Exemplifying Viridien's commitment to innovation and sustainability, the talented team behind the groundbreaking UK HPC Hub discuss their roles in developing the unique facility and the features that make it truly different.

Pursuing knowledge knows no boundaries, and embracing change can lead to extraordinary outcomes. Just ask Viridien’s data scientist recruit (and astrophysicist), Maria Campos Varillas, who recently joined Viridien’s Data Hub Team.

As a Data Geoscientist in Data Hub, I am responsible for maximizing the value of subsurface legacy data. Subsurface data is a key compound in the energy industry, which allows experts to explore fossil reservoirs. Many companies have vast volumes of trapped subsurface data, saved in variable data formats and stored in unstructured databases. By integrating data science tools with geoscience expertise, I am capable of updating legacy data and providing new data management strategies to improve data quality, decision-making, and new insights for ongoing and planned geoscientific investigations.
