  • Publication number: 20210180439
    Abstract: A method for dynamically constructing a well includes receiving inputs that specify characteristics of a proposed well. An indicator is generated for construction of the proposed well using the inputs and a machine learning model trained using data from actual wells, and the indicator is transmitted.

  • Publication number: 20160237748
    Abstract: A technique facilitates steering during, for example, a borehole drilling operation. A steering tool is employed to control an orientation of a drill bit or other component. The steering tool comprises a tool body and at least one actuator, e.g. piezo actuator. The at least one actuator, e.g. piezo actuator, is selectively displaced via application of appropriate inputs, e.g. electrical inputs. Controlled application of the inputs enables selective deformation of the actuators in a manner which changes the orientation of the drill bit or other component to a predetermined, desired orientation.
