摘要: A pressure pulse generator and an RSS may change the pressure of a fluid flow through a BHA. If the dogleg at the BHA is less than a target dogleg, then the pressure pulse generator goes into pass-through mode to increase the pressure at the RSS and thereby increase a pad force of the RSS steering pads, increasing the severity of the dogleg. If a downhole tool is stuck, then the pressure pulse generator and the RSS are simultaneously actuated to unstick the downhole tool. The RSS is used to generate and transmit pressure pulses to a downhole tool.

摘要: An improved total field calibration system and method is disclosed for reducing the rotational misalignment between magnetic and gravity sensors in a directional sensing system. A method of calibrating a tri-axial directional sensor comprising orthonormal accelerometers and orthonormal magnetometers, comprises measuring Earth's magnetic and gravity fields with said directional sensor in at least 4 sensor orientations; obtaining at least one reference field value of dip drift of Earth's magnetic field from at least one source independent of said directional sensor corresponding to said orientations; and, determining and applying rotational misalignments between said magnetometers and said accelerometers so that measured magnetic dip drifts are substantially equal to said reference values. The calibration process can be performed without monitoring the declination change during the calibration process. Directional sensing systems can be calibrated accurately during a period when the Earth's magnetic field changes rapidly.

摘要: Systems and methods include a method for generating a high-resolution advanced three-dimensional (3D) transient model that models multiple wells by integrating pressure transient data into a static geological model. A crude 3D model is generated from a full-field geological model that models production for multiple wells in an area. A functional 3D model is generated from the crude 3D model. An intermediate 3D model is generated by calibrating the functional 3D model with single-well data. An advanced 3D transient model is generated by calibrating multi-well data in the functional 3D model.

摘要: In an example method, a system obtains, during a first subterranean drilling operation, first data indicating one or more characteristics of a drill bit of a drilling system, second data including sensor measurements regarding the drilling system, and third data indicating historical information regarding one or more additional subterranean drilling operations. The system determines a first metric based on the first data, a second metric based on the second data, and a third metric based on the third data. Further, the system determines a fourth metric based on the first metric, the second metric, and the third metric, where the fourth metric is indicative of a risk of a stuck pipe in the drilling system during the first subterranean drilling operation. The system generates a graphical user interface for presentation to a user, including an indication of the fourth metric.

摘要: A method of drilling a wellbore to a target includes measuring attitudes at two adjacent survey stations along a wellbore using a downhole surveying tool. An actual change in wellbore position over a survey leg linking the two survey stations is determined. Corrections are applied to the measured attitude at one or both of the survey stations such that a modeled well path joining the survey stations reflects the determined actual change in wellbore positon between the two survey stations.

摘要: The disclosed embodiments include devices and methods to perform inversion processing of well log data. In one embodiment, a method to perform inversion processing of well log data includes obtaining an initial model of an earth formation based on a plurality of modeling parameters that includes formation parameters of the earth formation and calibration factors associated with orientations of antennas of a logging tool utilized to measure raw measurements of the earth formation. The method also includes performing a forward modeling of the modeling parameters to obtain a modeling response, and performing a joint cost function of the first modeling response and raw measurements obtained by the logging tool. The method further includes readjusting the initial model if a result of the joint cost function is not below a threshold, and providing the modeling response if the result of the joint cost function is below the threshold.

摘要: Methods and systems are described that can be used for locating conductive bodies such as wellbore casing or piping disposed below the earth's surface. An electrical current can be excited in a conductive body in each wellbore in a given area to produce a magnetic field, and the magnetic field can be detected by a ranging tool. Location and current parameters can be determined for an estimated number of wellbores producing non-negligible contributions to the magnetic field, and the estimated number of wellbores can be adjusted until the number of contributing wellbores is determined. Location solutions can be returned for each of the contributing wellbores, and the location solutions can be employed to facilitate exploration of drilling applications such as well avoidance, well intersection and/or steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) steering operations.
