Abstract
A method can include receiving sensor data during drilling of a portion of a borehole in a geologic environment; determining a drilling mode from a plurality of drilling modes using a trained neural network and at least a portion of the sensor data; and issuing a control instruction for drilling an additional portion of the borehole using the determined drilling mode.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving sensor data during drilling of a portion of a borehole in a geologic environment;
- determining a drilling mode from a plurality of drilling modes using a trained neural network and at least a portion of the sensor data;
- and
- issuing a control instruction for drilling an additional portion of the borehole using the determined drilling mode.
A system comprising:
- a processor;
- memory accessible to the processor;
- processor-executable instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to instruct the system to:
- receive sensor data during drilling of a portion of a borehole in a geologic environment;
- determine a drilling mode from a plurality of drilling modes using a trained neural network and at least a portion of the sensor data;
- and
- issue a control instruction for drilling an additional portion of the borehole using the determined drilling mode.
One or more computer-readable storage media comprising computer-executable instructions executable to instruct a computing system to:
- receive sensor data during drilling of a portion of a borehole in a geologic environment;
- determine a drilling mode from a plurality of drilling modes using a trained neural network and at least a portion of the sensor data;
- and
- issue a control instruction for drilling an additional portion of the borehole using the determined drilling mode.
