Abstract: A system can be used to analyze a wellbore operation using symbolic dynamics. The system can receive baseline data and subsequent data about a downhole tool. The system can transform the baseline data and the subsequent data into symbolic representations thereof. The system can determine, using symbolic dynamics to compare the symbolic representations, a degree of difference between the symbolic representations. The system can provide the degree of difference between the symbolic representations via an output device. The degree of difference can be used to control the wellbore operation.

Abstract: Aspects and features of this disclosure relate to projecting physical drilling parameters to control a drilling operation. A computing system applies Bayesian optimization to a model incorporating the input data using varying values for an adverse drilling factor to produce a target function. The computing system determines a minimum value for the target function. The computing system provides a projected value for the physical drilling parameters based on the minimum value. The computing system generates an alert responsive to determining that the projected value for the physical drilling parameters exceeds a prescribed limit.

Abstract: Processes to receive user input parameters and system input parameters associated with a borehole undergoing active drilling operations to continually update drilling directions with wholistically applied optimizations to bring the actual borehole trajectory closer to the planned borehole trajectory. The processes can project ahead of the drilling assembly to determine the actual trajectory of the borehole and generate corrections to reduce the gap between the actual and planned trajectory paths. Various optimizations can be applied to the corrections to avoid overstressing systems or reducing the borehole productivity. Conflicts between optimizations can be resolved using a weighting or ranking system. More than one set of corrections can be determined and a user or a machine learning system can be used to select the one set of corrections to use as the results to be communicated and applied to the drilling operation plan or a borehole system, such as a geo-steering system.

Abstract: A method and system to drill a wellbore and identify drill bit failure by deconvoluting sensor data. The method comprises drilling the wellbore using a drill bit; and measuring data indicative of a parameter associated with the drill bit using a sensor located in the wellbore. The method also comprises decomposing the data to generate an intrinsic mode function of the drill bit data; and analyzing the intrinsic mode function to identify a drill bit failure. The system for drilling the wellbore comprises a drill bit; a sensor; and a processor. The sensor is located in the wellbore and operable to measure data indicative of a parameter associated with the drill bit. The processor is in communication with the sensor and operable to decompose the data to generate an intrinsic mode function of the drill bit data; and analyze the intrinsic mode function to identify a drill bit failure.

Abstract: The disclosure presents processes and methods for determining an adjusted drag friction factor, where the adjusting utilizes a hole cleaning function. In some aspects, the drag friction factor utilizes viscous drag. In some aspects, the drag friction factor utilizes viscous torque. In some aspects, the drag friction factor can be utilized to determine one or more decomposed friction factors. The decomposed friction factors or the adjusted drag friction factor can be utilized in a friction processor to improve the efficiency of borehole operations. The hole cleaning function can utilize various parameters, for example, a cuttings density, a cuttings load, a cuttings shape, a cuttings size, a deviation, a drill pipe rotation rate, a drill pipe size, a flow regime, a hole size, a mud density, a mud rheology, a mud velocity, a pipe eccentricity, and other parameters. A system is disclosed that is capable of implementing the processes and methods.
