Abstract
In an embodiment, a method is performed by a computer system. The method includes integrating a series of data inputs related to a well. The series of data inputs includes at least one real-time data input and at least one non-real-time data input. The method further includes based, at least in part, on a result of the integrating, facilitating a real-time display of performance data for the well. The real-time display includes information related to at least one of hydraulic surveillance and torque-and-drag surveillance.

A method comprising, by a computer system:
- receiving planned well-performance modeling data for a well currently being drilled;
- receiving non-real-time data inputs in relation to the well;
- receiving real-time data inputs produced by sensors in relation to the well;
- receiving a correction factor that is indicative of drilling conditions;
- calibrating the real-time data inputs based, at least in part, on the correction factor;
- determining well performance based, at least in part, on the non-real-time data inputs and the calibrated real-time data inputs;
- comparing, in real-time, the determined well performance with the planned well-performance modeling data for the well;
- updating, in real-time, the planned well-performance modeling data for the well based, at least in part, on the correction factor;
- and
- facilitating a real-time display of comparison data for the well, wherein the real-time display comprises information related to the determined well performance and the updated planned well-performance modeling data for the well.
