Drilling rig communication systems, devices, and methods

A method of communicating for a drilling operation, comprising:

• receiving, with a controller in communication with a drilling rig, user input of drilling operation tasks to be executed on the drilling rig;
• wherein a first task must be completed before a second task is started;
• generating, with the controller, a drilling rig schedule to execute the tasks;
• communicating, with the controller, a Request For Quote (RFQ) for a first task of the tasks to a plurality of third parties;
• receiving, with the controller, responses to the RFQ from the plurality of third parties;
• wherein the responses comprise data relating to the plurality of third parties;
• selecting, with the controller, and based on the responses to the RFQ, a first third party to execute the first task;
• notifying, with the controller, the first third party that the first third party has been selected to execute the first task;
• generating, with the controller, a field ticket based on the first task for the first third party;
• wherein the field ticket includes data received in a response to the RFQ from the first third party;
• executing, with the drilling rig, at least a portion of the first task for the third party;
• wherein the drilling rig comprises a drive system and a drawworks;
• measuring, with one or more sensors operably associated with the drilling rig, one or more drilling parameters during the execution of the first task;
• receiving, with the controller, the one or more drilling parameters measured by the one or more sensors during the execution of the first task;
• determining, based on the received one or more drilling parameters, that there is a potential problem with the first task;
• modifying, with the controller, the drilling rig schedule to delay the second task until the potential problem with the first task is resolved;
• sending, with the controller, an alert regarding the delay to the second task to a second third party that is associated with the second task;
• generating, with the controller, a task report of the executed first task based on the received one or more drilling parameters;
• and
• storing, in a database, communications sent to and from the plurality of third parties;
• wherein the communications are correlated in the database by each third party in the plurality of third parties.
