Drilling automation
This research aims to develop a fluid-advisory system that provides recommendations for optimal amounts of chemical additives needed to maintain desired fluid properties in various drilling-fluid systems.
The SPE Drilling Systems Automation Technical Section has a new name—and a bigger mission. Discover how DSATS is evolving beyond automation to drive smarter, more connected, and more human-centered drilling systems for the future.
This paper presents the development of a digital tool for automatically analyzing the readiness of a borehole to accept casing. The tool integrates data-driven and physics-based models to indicate locations of risk along the wellbore.

The vision of fully automated drilling rigs driven by big data gathered in real time looks so far off but there are people working on a road map to help the oil and gas industry find its way there some day. -
Recently, while preparing to present a seminar on deepwater-well-construction optimization, I tried hard to find a word or a phrase that could be seen as “the secret” for a safe and optimized drilling performance.

Drilling, completion, production, and general surveillance are all areas that benefit greatly from remote real-time analysis. However, several challenges to remote services exist, including communications issues, fear of job loss, and working outside one’s comfort zone. What is considered an important development goal for a business might be regarded as a threat to an…
