  • Patent number: 11053792
    Abstract: A system for use in a wellbore can include a computing device that includes a processing device and a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processing device. The instructions can cause the processing device to generate a predicted value of a parameter associated with a well environment or with a wellbore operation. The instructions can also cause the processing device to receive sensor data that includes a measured value of the parameter; compare the predicted value to the measured value to determine a difference; and generate an interface for display that includes a data point associated with the difference plotted on a probability-mass distribution graph. The system can also include a sensor in electrical communication with the computing device and positionable proximate to the wellbore for generating the measured value of the parameter and transmitting the measured value of the parameter to the computing device.

  • Patent number: 10876391
    Abstract: A system for use in a wellbore can include a computing device including a processing device and a memory device that stores instructions executable by the processing device. The instructions can cause the processing device to generate a predicted value of a parameter associated with a well environment or a wellbore operation. The instructions can also cause the processing device to determine a tuning factor for adjusting the predicted value based on historical data. The instructions can also cause the processing device to apply the tuning factor to the predicted value to generate a tuned predicted value. The instructions can further cause the processing device to generate an interface for display that includes a data point associated with the tuned predicted value plotted on a graph.
