    摘要: Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer-readable medium to perform operations including: receiving real-time drilling data of a drilling operation of drilling a wellbore; using the drilling data to calculate at least one indicator of a tripping operation performed during the drilling operation; detecting, based on the least one indicator of the tripping operation, a drilling problem with the drilling operation; determining a corrective action to avoid or mitigate the drilling problem; and performing the corrective action to avoid or mitigate the drilling problem.

    摘要: Systems and methods include techniques for predicting hydrocarbon show indicators classifying a presence of hydrocarbons at a pre-determined distance ahead of a drilling bit. Input data is received that identifies, for different depths of a well that is being drilled, a drill bit location, a depth, a weight on bit, rotations per minute, a rate of penetration, lagged lithology percentages, and real-time mud gas logs. Data cleaning is performed on the input data using an isolation forest algorithm to remove outliers. A sequence of attributes for the well being drilled is identified from the input data, where the sequence of attributes includes the input data measured at a sequence of depths in the well. Hydrocarbon show indicators classifying a presence of hydrocarbons at a pre-determined distance ahead of a drilling bit are predicted in real time using machine learning on the sequence of attributes received while drilling the well.

    摘要: A drilling control system may access a drilling plan for a borehole comprising one or more of planned path for the borehole, drill string information, mud properties, drill bit properties, formation properties, and drill rig properties. The system may receive a plurality of operating parameters from a rig for the borehole including one or more of an observed toolface, a spindle setting, a rate of penetration, a differential pressure, and a weight-on-bit. The system may receive one or more propagation functions for the borehole determined by a model of the drill string. The system may determine one or more spindle changes or block speed changes based at least in part on the propagation functions and the plurality of operating parameters. The system may generate one or more predicted drill properties from a simulator using the one or more spindle changes or the one or more block speed changes.
