... to easily study and improve the drilling process and, in turn, accelerate and improve well programs.Utilizing multiple automation technologies simultaneously improves consistency, reduces operating costs and lowers risk potential. Higher quality wellbores are delivered with maximum hydrocarbon production...

... the first two groups we will here denote them predictive safeguards and real-time safety triggers respectively. Predictive safeguards Since simulation models are intended to replicate the drilling process as a digital twin, their input signals have to be the same as the physical input parameters...

... drilling rigs to automatically drill through a sample of material unknown to the students. This paper presents the winning students' summary of the rig design, construction and operation of their test results and how it relates to their new understanding of the drilling process. In the fall of 2014...

... this improves decision making, opens the door for advanced drilling processes such as automated drilling, and gives visibility to downhole conditions where never before possible. Indeed, the numerous deployments in which wired drillpipe has been used have demonstrated that the network provides significant value...

... Abstract Drilling automation is the control of the drilling process by automatic means, ultimately reducing human intervention to a minimum. The concept of automating the drilling process has generated considerable interest, yet there is a lack of agreement on exactly what it is, what...

... However, by modeling the drilling process as a sequence of sub-activities and only using relevant and normalized data for each sub-activity, much better estimates can be made from the data. Selecting relevant reference data requires strong technical knowledge and access to large datasets...

... is the description of the "Drilling Process" over time. The key element is a high level of automation to increase efficiency and improve the quality of conventional morning reporting, e.g. using rig sensor data. In order to fulfill these requirements a new way of reporting, processing of data and analysis...

... and improve the drilling process. Equally critical will be the continuous two-way data flow between the office and rig site. A well's data flow cycle begins during planning and is followed by drilling and a post-well analysis stage (Plan-Execute-Learn). Unfortunately, the data flow cycle often suffers...

A key requirement for enhancing drilling performance is the ability to simply and clearly display information about the drilling process on the rig floor. The prototype display not only informs...

...Improved down hole information The autodriller also has features that perform certain operations during drilling, which give the driller enhanced knowledge about the down hole conditions. Through the improved information about the drilling process, it is possible for the system to detect...
