Abstract: A plurality of input data to be used to compute a first output is received. The first output is computed. It is determined that the computed first output is outside a pre-determined first-output limit. A plurality of hyperlinks is displayed on a display device. Each hyperlink provides a link to a process for making adjustments to the plurality of input data to bring the first output within the pre-determined first-output limit. Selection of one of the plurality of hyperlinks (the “selected hyperlink”) is detected. A process associated with the selected hyperlink is followed to produce an adjustment to the plurality of input data to bring the first output within the first pre-determined first-output limit. The adjusted plurality of input data is used to plan implementation of a system. The sequence of selection of hyperlinks is tracked in order to reinforce the prioritization and order of future suggestions. The system is implemented.

Abstract: System and methods for optimizing coiled tubing string configurations for drilling a wellbore are provided. A length of a rotatable segment of a coiled tubing string having rotatable and non-rotatable segments is estimated based on the physical properties of the rotatable segment. A friction factor for the rotatable segment is calculated based on the estimated length. An effective axial force for one or more points of interest along the non-rotatable and rotatable string segments is calculated, based in part on the friction factor. Upon determining that the effective axial force for at least one point of interest exceeds a predetermined maximum force threshold, an effective distributive friction factor is estimated for at least a portion of the non-rotatable segment of the string. The rotatable and non-rotatable string segments are redefined for one or more sections of the wellbore along a planned trajectory, based on the effective distributive friction factor.

Abstract: Estimating casing wear for individual portions or lengths of a casing may take into account that individual drill string sections cause different amounts of casing wear based on the physical and material properties of each drill string section. In some instances, a method performed during a drilling operation may involve tracking a location of the plurality of drill string sections along the wellbore; corresponding a casing section with the drill string wear factors of the drill string sections radially proximate to the casing section the drilling intervals of the drilling operations; and calculating a drilling casing wear for the casing section based on the drill string wear factors corresponding to the casing section.

Abstract: A directional tendency prediction system or method that provides: determining geometric parameters of a bottomhole assembly having at least a stabilizer, a bit, and an eccentering mechanism that provides a range of eccentricity settings; deriving a side force on the bit across the range of eccentricity settings; and based at least in part on the side force on the bit, determining a walk angle or dogleg severity (DLS) across the range of eccentricity settings. The resulting DLS range may be compared with requirements for a desired borehole trajectory and if suitable, the parameters may be used to configure the bottomhole assembly, and the DLS dependence may be expressed in a tabular or functional form to control steering.

Abstract: Predicting casing wear, riser wear, and friction factors in drilling operations may be achieved with data-driven models that use discrete inversion techniques to updated casing wear models, riser wear models, and/or friction factor models. For example, a method may applying a linear inversion technique or a nonlinear inversion technique to one or more parameters of at least one of a casing wear model, a riser wear model, or a friction factor model using historical data from a previously drilled well as input data to produce at least one of an updated casing wear model, an updated riser wear model, or an updated friction factor model, respectively; and implementing the at least one of the updated casing wear model, the updated riser wear model, or the updated friction factor model when designing and/or performing a drilling operation.
