摘要: A method for determining gravity toolface azimuth that can include rotating a logging tool about a center axis; positioning an accelerometer sensor within the logging tool at a first radial distance from the center axis; positioning an angular gyroscope sensor within the logging tool at a second radial distance from the center axis; receiving, at a controller, accelerometer sensor data from the accelerometer sensor and angular gyroscope sensor data from the angular gyroscope sensor as the logging tool rotates; determining, via the controller, a radial acceleration component of the accelerometer sensor from the accelerometer sensor data; determining, via the controller, a gain and an offset of the angular gyroscope sensor based on the radial acceleration component; and determining, via the controller, the gravity toolface azimuth of the logging tool as a function of time based on the gain, the offset, and the angular gyroscope sensor data.

摘要: A method for analyzing an environment that can include conducting a subterranean operation within an environment, obtaining sensor data from one or more sensors configured to monitor the environment, identifying an actual well activity within the environment based on the sensor data, identifying an individual within the environment based on the sensor data, and calculating an adherence score for the actual well activity based at least in part on an adherence score of the individual performing a task in the environment.

摘要: A method and apparatus for oil and gas operations according to which a bottom hole trajectory of a drilling well is surveyed using a survey tool located uphole from a drill bit positioned at a bottom hole location. One or more offset wells are identified having a trajectory, or respective trajectories, closing on the bottom hole trajectory of the drilling well. An anti-collision steering strategy for the drilling well to avoid the one or more offset wells is determined.

摘要: A mast assembly for a drilling rig includes a mast formed from a plurality of mast subunits. The mast assembly includes a lower drilling machine, upper drilling machine, and upper mud assembly, each of which is coupled to and movable vertically relative to the mast. The mast subunits are separable when the mast is in a transport configuration such that the LDM is positioned in a first subunit and the UDM is in a second subunit of the mast when the mast is in the transport configuration. The mast assembly may be used during a continuous drilling operation.

摘要: A method of building and operating a land-based drilling rig with a high-capacity mast include providing a platform collapsed on a substructure over a proposed well drilling location and building the high-capacity mast in a horizontal condition by attaching a lower portion of the high-capacity mast to the platform. The high-capacity mast having an opening formed therein sized to accommodate four Range 2 pipes or three Range 3 pipes. The high-capacity mast may be raised from the horizontal condition to a vertical condition by pushing the side of the high-capacity mast to pivot the high-capacity mast about a pivot point on the platform. The platform may be raised from a collapsed condition to a raised condition over the substructure. Some implementations include dual racking boards on the high-capacity mast.

摘要: A drilling rig includes an integrated MPD system. The drilling rig includes a drill rig floor and a substructure. The drilling rig includes a managed pressure drilling (MPD) manifold positioned on the drill rig floor or coupled to the substructure. The drilling rig includes a rotating control device (RCD) coupled to a blowout preventer (BOP), the BOP coupled to a wellbore. The drilling rig includes a flowline coupled to the RCD. The drilling rig includes an MPD line coupled to the BOP, the MPD line fluidly coupled between the annulus of the wellbore and the MPD manifold. The drilling rig includes an MPD outlet line, the MPD outlet line fluidly coupled between the MPD manifold and the flowline.

摘要: A system and method of directionally steering a bottom hole assembly (“BHA”) from a drilling rig to a target location including by receiving data indicative of a directional trend of the BHA and a projection to bit depth; determining a location of the BHA based on a directional trend and the projection; identifying an amount of deviation from a drilling path; automatically creating a modified drilling path that intersects the planned drilling path based on the amount of deviation exceeding a first threshold amount of deviation and being less than a second threshold amount of deviation, automatically creating a modified drilling path that does not intersect the planned drilling path in response to the amount of deviation exceeding the second threshold amount of deviation, and determining a curve profile of the modified drilling path having the smallest rate of curvature to avoid drilling overshoot; and steering the BHA.

摘要: An apparatus for, and method of identifying a potential problem with, drilling equipment that is used in a drilling operation. The method includes monitoring an actual drilling parameter associated with the drilling operation; comparing the actual drilling parameter to a target drilling parameter to determine a deviation between the actual and target drilling parameters; creating, using the controller and in response to the deviation, instructions for a control system that controls an aspect of the drilling operation; drilling, using the instructions and the controller, the wellbore; monitoring, using the controller, a change in deviation in response to drilling using the instructions; determining that the change in deviation is below a threshold; and determining, based on the change in deviation being below the threshold, that there is a potential problem with the drilling equipment.
