DHAHRAN, Saudi Arabia, May 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Aramco, one of the world's leading integrated energy and chemicals companies, has signed an agreement with Pasqal, a global leader in neutral atom quantum computing, to install the first quantum computer in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

沙特阿拉伯達蘭,2024年5月20日 /PRNewswire/ — 全球領先的綜合能源和化工公司之一阿美已與中性原子量子計算領域的全球領導者帕斯卡爾簽署協議,在沙特阿拉伯王國安裝第一臺量子計算機。

The agreement will see Pasqal install, maintain, and operate a 200-qubit quantum computer, which is scheduled for deployment in the second half of 2025.

該協議將要求Pasqal安裝、維護和運營一臺200量子比特的量子計算機,該計算機計劃於2025年下半年部署。

Ahmad Al-Khowaiter, Aramco EVP of Technology & Innovation, said: "Aramco is delighted to partner with Pasqal to bring cutting-edge, high-performance quantum computing capabilities to the Kingdom. In a rapidly evolving digital landscape, we believe it is crucial to seize opportunities presented by new, impactful technologies and we aim to pioneer the use of quantum computing in the energy sector. Our agreement with Pasqal allows us to harness the expertise of a leading player in this field, as we continue to build state-of-the-art solutions into our business. It is also further evidence of our contribution to the growth of the digital economy in Saudi Arabia."

阿美石油公司技術與創新執行副總裁艾哈邁德·霍韋特說: “阿美很高興與Pasqal合作,爲沙特帶來尖端的高性能量子計算能力。在快速變化的數字環境中,我們認爲抓住具有影響力的新技術帶來的機遇至關重要,我們的目標是開創量子計算在能源領域的應用。我們與Pasqal的協議使我們能夠利用該領域領先企業的專業知識,繼續爲我們的業務構建最先進的解決方案。這也進一步證明了我們對沙特阿拉伯數字經濟增長的貢獻。”

Georges-Olivier Reymond, Pasqal CEO & Co-founder, said: "The era of quantum computing is here. No longer confined to theory, it's transitioning to real-world applications, empowering organisations to solve previously intractable problems at scale. Since launching Pasqal in 2019, we have directed our efforts towards concrete quantum computing algorithms immediately applicable to customer use cases. Through this agreement, we'll be at the forefront of accelerating commercial adoption of this transformative technology in Saudi Arabia. This isn't just any quantum computer; it will be the most powerful tool deployed for industrial usages, unlocking a new era of innovation for businesses and society."

Pasqal 首席執行官兼聯合創始人 Georges-Olivier Reymond 表示: “量子計算時代已經到來。它不再侷限於理論,它正在過渡到現實世界的應用程序,使組織能夠大規模解決以前棘手的問題。自2019年推出Pasqal以來,我們一直將精力集中在立即適用於客戶用例的具體量子計算算法上。通過該協議,我們將站在加快沙特阿拉伯商業採用這一變革性技術的最前沿。這不僅僅是任何量子計算機;它將是爲工業用途部署的最強大的工具,爲企業和社會開啓一個新的創新時代。”

The quantum computer will initially use an approach called "analog mode." Within the following year, the system will be upgraded to a more advanced hybrid "analog-digital mode," which is more powerful and able to solve even more complex problems.

量子計算機最初將使用一種稱爲 “模擬模式” 的方法。次年內,該系統將升級到更先進的混合 “模數模式”,該模式更強大,能夠解決更復雜的問題。

Pasqal and Aramco intend to leverage the quantum computer to identify new use cases, and have an ambitious vision to establish a powerhouse for quantum research within Saudi Arabia. This would involve leading academic institutions with the aim of fostering breakthroughs in quantum algorithm development — a crucial step for unlocking the true potential of quantum computing.

Pasqal和阿美打算利用量子計算機來識別新的用例,並雄心勃勃地願景是在沙特阿拉伯建立一個強大的量子研究中心。這將涉及領先的學術機構,旨在促進量子算法開發的突破——這是釋放量子計算真正潛力的關鍵一步。

The agreement also accelerates Pasqal's activity in Saudi Arabia, having established an office in the Kingdom in 2023, and follows the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between the companies in 2022 to collaborate on quantum computing capabilities and applications in the energy sector. In 2023, Aramco's Wa'ed Ventures also participated in Pasqal's Series B fundraising round.

該協議還加速了Pasqal在沙特阿拉伯的活動,於2023年在沙特阿拉伯設立了辦事處,此前兩家公司於2022年簽署了諒解備忘錄,在能源領域的量子計算能力和應用方面進行合作。2023年,阿美的Wa'ed Ventures還參與了帕斯卡爾的B輪融資。
