Abstract: A system for performing operations on a work center disposed on a drill rig floor includes a robotic system having a base disposed on a track for movement thereon, a robot arm supported on the base, and one or more end effector tools selectively attachable to an end of the robot arm. A control system has a robot controller in communication with the robotic system. The robot controller is configured to command the robotic system to enter a mode for performing a selected operation, command the robot arm to engage one of the one or more end effector tools related to the selected operation from a tool storage, command the robotic system to move along the track to a position adjacent to the work center, and command the robotic system to perform the selected operation at the work center using the robot arm and the engaged end effector tool.

Abstract: The system for automating well construction operations includes a plurality of sensors, such as a fingerboard latch position sensor for providing position of a fingerboard latch, a stick-up height sensor for determining a height of a portion of a tubular section extending from a well center, a pipe handler rotation sensor for detecting a position of a pipe handler, a bell guide clearance sensor for measuring a distance between a bell guide and a tool joint, a link tilt position sensor for measuring an angle of a bail with respect to a top drive, an elevator latch status sensor for detecting whether an elevator latch is open or closed, and a power slips sensor for detecting whether a power slips is open or closed. Further, the system includes a controller in communication with the plurality of sensors and configured to command one or more equipment based on inputs from the sensors.

Abstract: An end-to-end well construction system includes an e-program for receiving a first input selected from well planning data, rig historical performance data, rig parameters, drilling engineering input, management of change, and a combination thereof, and configured to produce a first output selected from a machine and/or human readable sequence, a time depth curve, a drilling program, and a combination thereof, and a second output including analytics data. Further, the end-to-end well construction system includes a drilling control layer, configured to receive the first output from e-program, and to produce a third output including an automated sequence, and a smart well analytics system configured to receive the analytics data from the e-program and a second input selected from drilling data, downhole data, base data from the e-program, a modeling software, and a combination thereof, and to produce a fourth output to the drilling control layer for automated adjustment.
