Patents by Inventor Vladimir Zhernakov

Vladimir Zhernakov has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12270292
    Abstract: A system and method that include receiving offset well data collected from an offset well, wherein the offset well data comprises data representing a trajectory of an offset. The system and method also include receiving subject well data comprising a trajectory of at least a portion of a subject. The system and method additionally include determining a similarity value between the trajectory of the offset well and the subject well. The system and method also include selecting at least one offset well for offset well analysis based on the similarity value. The system and method further include adjusting at least one parameter of the subject well based on the offset well analysis.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11905821
    Abstract: A method for offset well analysis includes receiving offset well data collected from an offset well, the offset well data including data representing a trajectory of an offset well, receiving subject well data comprising a trajectory of at least a portion of a subject well, partitioning the trajectory of the offset well into a plurality of offset well segments, partitioning the trajectory of the subject well into a plurality of subject well segments, determining a distance between at least some of the plurality of offset well segments and at least some of the plurality of subject well segments, selecting the offset well based in part on the distance, and performing an offset well analysis using the offset well and the subject well.

  • Publication number: 20210374638
    Abstract: A method for conducting an oilfield operation includes obtaining a plan for conducting an oilfield operation, the plan including a planned value for a metric, receiving data collected while performing one or more oilfield activities using the plan, at least a portion of the data representing an actual value for the metric, determining that one or more deviations from the plan occurred based on a difference between the actual value and the planned value, identifying one or more unplanned events of the one or more oilfield activities that are not in the plan that caused the one or more deviations, calculating a contribution to the difference between the actual value and the planned value caused by the one or more unplanned events, and modifying the plan to account for the one or more unplanned events.
