## Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for implementing at least one automatically selected reporting protocol. Some embodiments select a particular reporting protocol for use based at least in part on particular location data, for example location data associated with a processing plant, processing unit, and/or multiple processing plants individually. Some embodiments select a particular reporting protocol using a specially configured artificial intelligence model that learns a most probably accurate reporting protocol corresponding to particular location data. Additionally, some embodiments generate an operational report based at least in part on a selected reporting protocol and operations data received for a particular processing plant.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A computer-implemented method for implementing at least one automatically selected reporting protocol comprising:
receiving operations data representing operation of a processing plant;
receiving location data associated with the processing plant;
applying at least the location data to a protocol selection model, wherein the protocol selection model comprises an artificial intelligence model that selects a reporting protocol based at least in part on the location data; and
generating an operational report based at least in part on the reporting protocol and the operations data.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the operations data corresponds to a reporting level, the reporting level selected from at least one of a unit level, a site level, and an enterprise level.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the protocol selection model is further configured to select the reporting protocol based at least in part on industry type data.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, the computer-implemented method further comprising:
generating a user interface alert that indicates at least one regulator required reporting protocol and at least the reporting protocol selected by the protocol selection model.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the protocol selection model receives an indication of internal reporting or external reporting, and wherein the protocol selection model is configured to select the reporting protocol based at least in part on the indication of internal reporting or external reporting.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the protocol selection model comprises a lookup table that indicates at least one candidate protocol for selection based on the location data, wherein the reporting protocol is selected from the at least one candidate protocol.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the protocol selection model generates a ranking for each of at least one candidate protocol, the computer-implemented method further comprising:
causing rendering of a user interface comprising the ranking for each of the at least one candidate protocol.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the artificial intelligence model is configured to predict a probability of each candidate protocol of a plurality of candidate protocols based at least in part on a plurality of historically selected reporting protocol.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the location data is received from a location sensor of a processing unit of the processing plant.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the operational report corresponds to a unit level and the location data represents a location of a processing unit of the processing plant.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

### Claim 12 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:
receiving user input initiating the generation of the operational report, wherein the operational report is generated in response to receiving the user input.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the generation of the operational report is automatically initiated in response to selection of the reporting protocol.

### Claim 14

An apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one non-transitory memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:
receive operations data representing operation of a processing plant;
receive location data associated with the processing plant;
apply at least the location data to a protocol selection model, wherein the protocol selection model comprises an artificial intelligence model that selects a reporting protocol based at least in part on the location data; and
generate an operational report based at least in part on the reporting protocol and the operations data.

### Claim 15 (depends on 14)
