The disclosure now turns to
Logging tools 126 can be integrated into the bottom-hole assembly 125 near the drill bit 114. As the drill bit 114 extends the wellbore 116 through the formations 118, logging tools 126 collect measurements relating to various formation properties as well as the orientation of the tool and various other drilling conditions. The bottom-hole assembly 125 may also include a telemetry sub 128 to transfer measurement data to a surface receiver 132 and to receive commands from the surface. In at least some cases, the telemetry sub 128 communicates with a surface receiver 132 using mud pulse telemetry. In some instances, the telemetry sub 128 does not communicate with the surface, but rather stores logging data for later retrieval at the surface when the logging assembly is recovered.
Each of the logging tools 126 may include one or more tool components spaced apart from each other and communicatively coupled with one or more wires and/or other media. The logging tools 126 may also include one or more computing devices 134 communicatively coupled with one or more of the one or more tool components by one or more wires and/or other media. The one or more computing devices 134 may be configured to control or monitor a performance of the tool, process logging data, and/or carry out one or more aspects of the methods and processes of the present disclosure.
In at least some instances, one or more of the logging tools 126 may communicate with a surface receiver 132 by a wire, such as wired drillpipe. In other cases, the one or more of the logging tools 126 may communicate with a surface receiver 132 by wireless signal transmission. In at least some cases, one or more of the logging tools 126 may receive electrical power from a wire that extends to the surface, including wires extending through a wired drillpipe.
Referring to
The illustrated wireline conveyance 144 provides support for the tool, as well as enabling communication between tool processors 148A-N on the surface and providing a power supply. In some examples, the wireline conveyance 144 can include electrical and/or fiber optic cabling for carrying out communications. The wireline conveyance 144 is sufficiently strong and flexible to tether the tool body 146 through the wellbore 116, while also permitting communication through the wireline conveyance 144 to one or more processors 148A-N, which can include local and/or remote processors. Moreover, power can be supplied via the wireline conveyance 144 to meet power requirements of the tool. For slickline or coiled tubing configurations, power can be supplied downhole with a battery or via a downhole generator.
The example method shown in the flowchart of
At step 202 (T1), an example includes receiving drilling data of a drilling rig such as the wellbore operating environment 100 that can be measured in real-time (RT) at n time positions.
At step 204, the state of the drilling rig (“RigState”) is assessed in real-time by receiving data from a plurality of sensors strategically placed at corresponding areas throughout the drilling rig. Statistical data along with micro and macro activity mapping are evaluated to provide real-time data messages relating to the activity. Further details and descriptions of the RigState is provided below in
At step 206 (T2), the above-mentioned real-time data and corresponding activities are provided from step 204.
At step 208, the uncertainty of the drilling rig is assessed in real-time by receiving the real-time data and activity information at various time positions from step 206. The uncertainty of the drilling rig considers a Y array and a bit depth array at different positions. Thereafter, an automatic model hyper-parameter tuning is performed with the data received from the Y array and bit depth array to perform a model of fitting, training, evaluating, and testing. With this data, a forecast is predicted of the Y array, a Y uncertainty array, the bit depth array, and a bit depth uncertainty array to provide real-time data messages that correspond to the activity, forecast, and forecast uncertainty. Further details and descriptions of the RigState is provided below in
At step 210 (T4), with the data and information provided by step 208, uncertainty ellipses can be produced to assist in real-time predictions and adjustments of the drilling rig.
At step 310, the example workflow of
At step 320, current messages from a real-time data acquisition tool can be continuously collected and assessed based on six criteria that answer the following questions: (1) is the bit on the bottom; (2) is the bit rotating; (3) is there flow in the wellbore; (4) is the pipe moving up, static, or moving down; (5) are the slips in or not; and (6) is the micro-activity brief or long? For example, a plurality of sensors can collect and assess the above-mentioned inquiries. One sensor 321 can measure the position of the drill bit in relation to the bottom of the wellbore. Another sensor 322 can measure a rotational speed of the drill bit. Yet another sensor 323 can measure whether there is a flow of fluid in the wellbore. A different sensor 324 can measure the relative position of the pipe to determine whether the pipe is moving up, static, or moving down. Another sensor 325 can measure whether the slips are in or not. While a separate sensor 326 can measure whether the micro-activity is brief or long.
Though each of the above-mentioned sensors are individual sensors that can measure their corresponding parameters, one sensor can also be configured to measure all, some, or more of the above-mentioned parameters. The above-mentioned sensors can provide encoded data signals to the wellbore environment 100 that correspond to 0, 1, or −1.
At step 330, in some aspects, an encoded answer to the six questions can yield a micro-activity evaluation 332 for each message via mapping 333. A statistical evaluation 331 can be performed on the interval of size X and the micro-activity over the interval is determined. Examples of micro-activities can include rotary drilling, slide drilling, making connection, and any other micro-activity suitable for the intended purpose and understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art. That micro-activity 332 coupled with the macro-activity mapping 334 can yield the macro activity evaluation 335 over the entire interval. Examples of macro-activities can include drilling, trip in, trip out, and any other macro-activity suitable for the intended purpose and understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art.
At step 340, both the macro and micro activities 330 are appended to the original real-time data message 320 at the current calculation time and returned as a new message to be consumed by a subsequent micro-service. An example of the new message is provided below in JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format. New parameters can be appended in each section of a logData as an output message.
At step 340, in some approaches, the uncertainty analysis micro-service aims at forecasting the next n points in a 2-D plot of drilling parameters utilizing the real-time data messages and activities 340.
At step 350, for instance,
At step 360, real-time drilling data are independent, time-based, and the measurements can be collected at an approximately constant rate. An automatic model hyper-parameter tuning 361 can be performed with the data received from the Y array 352 and the bit depth array 354 to perform a model of fitting 362, training 363, evaluating 365, and testing 364. For example, the automatic model hyper-parameter 361 can begin with the model fitting 362, which can provide a model that corresponds to the Y array 352 and the bit depth array 354. The model can then be trained 363 and compared with the real-time data from the Y array 352 and the bit depth array 354. The results can then be tested 364 for accuracy and accurateness.
At step 370, the data 340 can be treated as time series data. A time series forecast model can be developed for every parameter of interest (e.g., Y parameter). With this data 340, a forecast can be predicted for the Y array 372, a Y uncertainty array 374, the bit depth array 376, and a bit depth uncertainty array 378 to provide real-time data messages that correspond to the activity, forecast, and forecast uncertainty of the system.
An Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model can be utilized to improve the accuracy of the predictions of step 370 by automatically tuning the following parameters (p, d, and q). The below-referenced parameters of the ARIMA model can be defined as follows:
p: The number of lag observations included in the ARIMA model (i.e., lag order).
d: The number of times that raw observations are differenced (i.e., degree of differencing).
q: The size of a moving average window (i.e., order of moving average).
The p, d, and q parameters as described above can also be processed through the automatic hyper-parameter tuning 361 of step 360. Below is an example of output messages of an uncertainty analysis of mechanical specific energy (MSE) and friction factor as examples of Y parameters. The appended data at the end of the below-referenced logData sections can be used to construct uncertainty ellipses as illustrated in
At step 380, the forecast model can provide a prediction on the next n values for each parameter, as well as the uncertainty and prediction interval for each value at any specified confidence level. For example, in
By combining each predicted 2-D point with uncertainty in every dimension, an ellipse can be built as shown in
In some approaches, this ellipse can represent the prediction area for a forecasted point (center) at a specific confidence level as described above. The n predicted values can yield n ellipses for a confidence level. As shown in
These ellipses can be displayed alongside the real time data 502 in a real-time dashboard similar to the plot shown in
Having disclosed example systems, methods, and technologies for using a real-time predictive analysis to improve monitoring of drilling operations, the disclosure now turns to
