  • Publication number: 20210312311
    Abstract: A requirements knowledge graph may include nodes for different elements of a requirement's relationship to physical characteristics, such as the requirement and the associated unsafe conditions, control objects, and hazards. A connection between nodes may define a relationship between the corresponding elements. The requirement, that is decomposed into a subject, an object, a predicate, and a context, may define a rule for the control object in the unsafe condition to avoid the hazard. A model for a plan (e.g., drilling plan for a well, design for a drilling tool) may be constructed based on the requirements knowledge graph. The plan may be generated based on the model.
