International Classification:

G06G 7/48
G06F 19/00

US Classification:

703 7, 702 9

Abstract:

Apparatus and method of conducting a drilling operation are provided. One embodiment of the method includes drilling a borehole, predicting a value of a first parameter relating to the drilling of the borehole using a geomechanical model, estimating a value of a second parameter from measurements taken by a sensor, updating the geomechanical model based at least in part on the estimated value of the second parameter, predicting a second value of the first parameter using the updated geomechanical model, and altering a drilling parameter for drilling the borehole based on the predicted second value of the first parameter.

International Classification:

E21B 47/00
E21B 43/00

US Classification:

16625001, 166 66

Abstract:

An alert system for a downhole operation including a tubular string in a borehole. The tubular string having at least one sensor positioned in the borehole for measuring at least one parameter during operation of the tubular string. A unit in data communication with the tubular string and operatively arranged to enable an operator to obtain information regarding operation of the tubular string. A work area positioned proximate to the unit and operatively arranged to receive the operator when the operator is interfacing with the unit. A vibration module operatively arranged to vibrate the work area or a structure therein, wherein the vibration module is triggered in response to a first parameter being outside of a predetermined range set by a first threshold value. Also included is a method of alerting an operator during a drilling operation.

US Classification:

702 9, 702 5, 702188, 3408532, 455507

Abstract:

A system to monitor drilling rig activity and to provide and manage drilling rig information, program product, and associated methods are provided. The system can include a communication network, a drilling rig information management server, a database accessible to the processor of the server, and drilling rig information management program product stored in the memory of the drilling rig information management server and including instructions that when executed by the processor of the drilling rig information management server cause the server to perform the operations of retrieving drilling rig location data from the database responsive to user selection of a geospatial location attribute, accessing digital mapping data to display a digital map associated with the user selected geospatial location attribute, and providing data to display indicia of a drilling rig location for at least one drilling rig overlaid upon and spatially oriented to at least portions of the digital map.

International Classification:

E21B 44/00
G05B 13/04

Abstract:

A method of generating, at an IIOT device mounted to equipment of a drilling system, a relay variable, a measurement variable, or a control variable and a message having an IP address. Classifying, by application services of a cloud service provider, the relay variable, the measurement variable, or the control variable; identifying a category or a category and sub-category from a plurality of categories and sub-categories based on variable; cataloguing the relay variable, the measurement variable, or the control variable based on the category or the category and the sub-category; selecting from a library of catalogued relay variables, measurement variables, and control variables, at least one selected from a group comprising a parameter and a value; and identifying a pattern using a statistics based algorithm, the statistics based algorithm using a standard operating procedure, the parameter and the value, the pattern indicating a deviation in the standard operating procedure.

International Classification:

G06N 5/04
G06F 16/2455
G06N 20/00

Abstract:

An apparatus used to provide preprocessed variables to a predictive engine. The predictive engine generates predictive results, based on the variables, to automate well site operations. The apparatus comprises an analysis module, a pattern recognition module, and a library module. The analysis module identifies a well site operation by examining a well site operation variable, determines categories and standard operating procedures associated with the categories using the well site operation and a-priori information, and searches a library of historical information using the categories. The historical information comprising classified procedures and recommendations of historic well site operations. The pattern recognition module identifies a pattern using a statistics based algorithm. The algorithm uses the standard operating procedures, the categories, and the classified procedures and recommendations. The pattern indicating a deviation in the standard operating procedure. The library module classifies the well site operation variables and stores the classified variables.
