  • Patent number: 11748155
    Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for processing a script file generated using a declarative engine for workloads (DEW). A system includes at least one hardware processor coupled to a memory and configured to retrieve a script file. The script file specifies a plurality of tasks forming a plan and an order of execution for the plurality of tasks. The script file is compiled to generate compiled code. The compiled code is executed to generate an in-memory representation of the plan. The in-memory representation of the plan is converted into a graph such as a directed acyclic graph (DAG). The graph includes the plurality of tasks. The plurality of tasks in the graph are executed according to the order of execution.

  • Patent number: 10473810
    Abstract: A downhole drilling tool has a deep-reading logging tool, a near-bit resistivity tool, and a gamma ray detector. Formation information logged using the deep-reading logging tool is used to build a preliminary stratigraphic model with a relatively low resolution. The preliminary stratigraphic model is further refined using data logged using the near-bit resistivity tool and/or the gamma ray detector to obtain a refined stratigraphic model with a higher resolution. The model is used to guide geosteering to achieve better well placement and trajectory control.

  • Patent number: 10253568
    Abstract: A push-the-bit rotary guiding device includes a mandrel having a central passage, a sleeve rotatably sleeved outside the mandrel, a plurality of swing ribs circumferentially arranged in an outer wall of the sleeve with an interval, an actuation mechanism for controlling each swing rib to swing respectively, a plurality of detectors for detecting a distance to a well wall in real-time, and a controller for determining whether the actuation mechanism is required to actuate the swing ribs to swing according to the detected distance. Through a real-time detection of the detectors of the push-the-bit rotary guiding device, a well section having an expanded or reduced diameter is detected in time and guiding of the rotary guiding device herein is avoided. The rotary guiding device has advantages of a simple and compact structure, convenient machining, easy assembling, and a safe and highly-efficient operation, and is easy to be popularized and applied.

  • Publication number: 20180223599
    Abstract: A static push-the-bit rotary guiding device includes: a mandrel having a central passage, wherein a circumferential groove is provided on an outer wall of the mandrel; a sleeve, which is sleeved in the circumferential groove and able to rotate independently; and a clutch, for cutting off or transferring a power from the mandrel to the sleeve. When it is unnecessary for the static push-the-bit rotary guiding device to provide a deviating force in a steady inclined section, a vertical section and a horizontal section, a rotational inertia and an interior energy storage of the rotary guiding device are not decreased, which is beneficial to highly-efficient and stable drilling of a downstream drill bit.
