Abstract

A method, and a computer readable medium for performing the method, for determining a drilling malfunction for a drilling unit, comprises determining a correspondence between at least one drilling operating parameter and at least one drilling response parameter; predicting a value of the drilling response parameter based on the correspondence and measurements of the drilling operating parameter; determining existence and at least one source of the malfunction when the predicted value is substantially different from a measured value of the drilling response parameter; and using the determination to select and implement corrective action to the at least one source, by replacement or adjustment of at least one component of the drilling unit. The invention provides improved accuracy and effectiveness in identifying and addressing malfunctions of the drilling unit.

Claims (8)

1. A method for determining a drilling malfunction, comprising:
determining a correspondence between at least one drilling operating parameter and at least one drilling response parameter;
predicting a value of the drilling response parameter based on the correspondence and measurements of the drilling operating parameter; and determining existence of the malfunction when the predicted value is substantially different from a measured value of the drilling response parameter.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the drilling operating parameter comprises at least one of weight on bit, rotary torque and drilling fluid flow rate.
3. The method of claim 1 or claim 2 wherein the at least one drilling response parameter comprises rate of penetration.
4. The method of any one of claims 1 to 3 wherein the determining the correspondence comprises training an artificial neural network.
5. A computer readable medium having recorded thereon computer readable instructions for performing steps comprising:
determining a correspondence between at least one drilling operating parameter and at least one drilling response parameter;
predicting a value of the drilling response parameter based on the correspondence and measurements of the drilling operating parameter; and determining existence of a drilling malfunction when the predicted value is substantially different from a measured value of the drilling response parameter.
6. The computer readable medium of claim 5 wherein the drilling operating parameter comprises at least one of weight on bit, rotary torque and drilling fluid flow rate.
7. The computer readable medium of claim 5 or claim 6 wherein the at least one drilling response parameter comprises rate of penetration.
8. The computer readable medium of any one of claims 5 to 7 wherein the determining the correspondence comprises training an artificial neural network.
