    Abstract: There is described a computer-implemented method of controlling a drilling operation. In particular, there is described a computer-implemented method of determining that a differential pressure is in an oscillating state. In response to determining that the differential pressure is in the oscillating state, a weight on bit setpoint is decreased so as to decrease the differential pressure. There is also described a computer-implemented method of determining a difference between a differential pressure and a target differential pressure. The target differential pressure is less than a differential pressure limit. A weight on bit setpoint is adjusted as a function of the difference between the differential pressure and the target differential pressure so as to adjust the differential pressure and thereby reduce the difference between the differential pressure and the target differential pressure.
