SandboxAQ, Aramco to deploy new AI platform for oil and gas facilities

January 22, 2025

SandboxAQ announced it has signed an agreement with Aramco, one of the world's leading integrated energy and chemicals companies, to collaborate on developing a multi-GPU enabled differentiable computational fluid dynamics solver for application in oil and gas processing facilities.

Designing, optimizing, and manufacturing new materials and chemicals has traditionally been challenging, slow, and expensive. SandboxAQ attempts to address these challenges by applying its Large Quantitative Models (LQMs) platform, which combines AI and physics to sample outside the known data space and connect computational methods to real-world results. This approach is intended to improve speed and accuracy, allowing products to reach the market faster and with better performance. The LQMs cover a range of techniques including large-scale quantum chemistry, generative chemistry AI, multi-parameter optimization and high-throughput quantitative data extraction.

"Our collaboration with Aramco brings SandboxAQ technology to address key challenges in the energy and chemicals industry,” said Jack D. Hidary, SandboxAQ CEO. “LQMs are the right tool to help Aramco lower its carbon footprint."
