    摘要: A method is provided for generating an indicator of potential bit abrasion in a particular wellbore. Forensic wellbore data is obtained from at least one previously drilled wellbore which is determined to be comparable to the particular target wellbore. Typically, the comparable wellbore comprises an “offset” wellbore which is proximate the target wellbore, and which has similar geologic features. An inference engine computer program is provided which consists of executable program instructions. It is adapted to utilize a plurality of wellbore parameters, including the forensic wellbore data. The inference engine includes at least one rule matrix which defines a plurality of fuzzy sets. These fuzzy sets establish correspondence between the plurality of wellbore parameters and the indictor of potential bit abrasion. The inference engine computer program is loaded onto a data processing system. At least the forensic wellbore data is supplied as an input to the inference engine computer program. The data processing system is utilized to execute the program instructions of the inference engine computer program. This causes the application of the inputs to the inference engine computer program. The inference engine computer program produces as an output an indication of potential bit abrasion in the particular target wellbore.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are provided for generating an indicator of potential for abrupt changes in rock strength in a particular wellbore. Forensic wellbore data is obtained from at least one previously drilled wellbore which is determined to be comparable to the target wellbore. An interfacial severity computer program is provided. The program consists of executable program instructions. It is adapted to utilize a plurality of wellbore parameters, including at least one forensic wellbore data element. The interfacial severity computer program is loaded onto a data processing system. At least the forensic wellbore data, and possibly other wellbore parameter data elements, are supplied as an input to the interfacial severity computer program. The data processing system is utilized to execute program instructions of the interfacial severity computer program. This applies the inputs to the interfacial severity computer program which produces an output and indicator of the potential for abrupt changes in rock strength in the particular target wellbore.
