Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device may include one or more processors, a memory for storing instructions that when executed by the one or more processors perform operations may include: accessing a drill plan for a drilling operation; receiving a plurality of drilling parameters for the drilling operation; generating a report including: a graphical depiction of the drilling operation based on the plurality of drilling parameters for the drilling operation, the graphic depiction including an animated or video illustration of the drilling operation within a past predetermined time period; a plurality of metrics associated with the drilling operation as provided by the drill plan; and a summary of a planned activity for a drilling operation for a future predetermined time period. Also, the device may include saving the report on a sever connected to a network. Further, the device may include providing the report to at least one user.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and technique for automated drilling for optimizing drilling operations. The system and technique includes receiving strategy information from a drilling roadmap. The drilling roadmap provides formation and deposit information. The system and technique includes receiving a plurality of operating parameters from one or more sensors. The system and technique includes receiving a selection of one or more factors for optimizing drilling operations. The system and technique includes generating one or more instructions based at least in part on the drilling roadmap, the plurality of operating parameters, and the one or more selected factors for optimizing drilling operations.

Abstract: Computer vision drilling systems and methods may be used with a drilling rig. The computer vision systems and methods may automatically monitor the drilling site and drilling operations, and may tally pipe in the drill string and monitor equipment for anomalous drilling conditions, and may automatically take corrective action as may be needed. The computer vision system may detect and identify one or more markings, such as symbols, letters, numbers, or other identifying features, on the pipe. Such features may be encoded on the pipe, such as by being etched or engraved or otherwise marked on the pipe, and may uniquely identify each pipe. The system can monitor and record the drilling conditions to which each pipe is exposed during drilling, which can be used to determine, among other things, whether and to what extent the pipe can be expected to have a useful life.

Abstract: Computer vision drilling systems and methods may be used with a drilling rig. The computer vision systems and methods may be used during drilling of a well to monitor the drilling equipment and personnel on the drilling site to provide safer drilling operations. The results from the computer vision drilling system may be used to cause corrective actions to be performed if a safety condition arises. In addition, computer vision systems and methods are provided to automatically monitor the drilling site and drilling operations, such as by tallying pipe in the drill string and by monitoring equipment for anomalous drilling conditions, and automatically taking corrective action as may be needed.

Abstract: A system for drilling a well may be adapted to process signals received from a fiber optic cable located in the casing of a previously drilled well or wells. The fiber optic cable may act as a distributed sensor receiving acoustic signals generated during the drilling of the well, and the system may be programmed to process the signals from the fiber optic cable to locate the borehole of the well being drilled, including its location relative to the previously drilled well or well. The system may be used to automatically update a well plan for the well being drilled responsive to information about the location of the borehole and also may be used to automatically adjust one or more drilling parameters or drilling operations responsive to the location of the second well borehole.

Abstract: Analysis and logging of drilling mud using a mud analysis system and controlling drilling operations responsive to the mud analysis and logging. The system and methods may automatically sample and analyze drilling mud and control the drilling of a well responsive to the mud analysis. The mud analysis system may acquire measurements on a sample of the drilling mud during drilling and may send signals indicative of the drilling mud to a steering control system enabled to control the drilling.

Abstract: Analysis and control of drilling mud and additives is disclosed using a mud analysis system and a mud additive system that may automatically monitor and control the drilling mud during drilling of a well. The mud analysis system may acquire measurements on a sample of the drilling mud during drilling, and may send signals indicative of the drilling mud to a steering control system enabled to control the drilling. The steering control system may receive user input or may make decisions regarding additives to be added to the drilling mud and the timing thereof. The mud additive system may be enabled to receive commands from the steering control system and mix and add additives to the drilling mud.
