Abstract
Examples described herein provide a computer-implemented method that includes determining, using a digital twin, a task to be performed based at least in part on real-time data. The method further includes initiating at least one of a drone, a collaborative robot, or a warehouse system to perform the task.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- determining, using a digital twin acting as an operational decision-maker, a task to be performed based at least in part on real-time data, the task comprising autonomously controlling at least one of a drilling fluid property of a drilling fluid by controlling a chemical composition of the drilling fluid or a completion fluid property of a completion fluid by controlling a chemical composition of the completion fluid at a hydrocarbon production or recovery operations facility;
- simulating performance of the task using a virtual replica that virtually replicates actions in the performance of the task;
- and
- initiating at least one of a drone, a collaborative robot, or a warehouse system to perform the task.

A system comprising:
- a processing system comprising a memory and a processor, the processing system for executing computer readable instructions, the computer readable instructions controlling a processing device to perform operations comprising:
- determining, using a digital twin acting as an operational decision-maker, a task to be performed based at least in part on real-time data, the task comprising autonomously controlling at least one of a drilling fluid property of a drilling fluid by controlling a chemical composition of the drilling fluid or a completion fluid property of a completion fluid by controlling a chemical composition of the completion fluid at a hydrocarbon production or recovery operations facility;
- simulating performance of the task using a virtual replica that virtually replicates actions in the performance of the task;
- and
- initiating at least one of a drone, a collaborative robot, or a warehouse system to perform the task.
