Systems and methods for determinig depth-dependent drilling paraemter limits

A system, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• memory in electronic communication with the at least one processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable by the at least one processor to:
• segment reference wellbore data from a reference wellbore into a plurality of depth segments using a statistical segmentation model and segmentation parameter data of a segmentation parameter set of the reference wellbore data, wherein the segmentation parameter set is a first subset of one or more drilling parameters from a plurality of drilling parameters in the reference wellbore data;
• generate a drilling parameter roadmap based on identifying a segment threshold for each drilling parameter of the reference wellbore data at each of the plurality of depth segments;
• manage drilling of a target wellbore via an autonomous drilling system according to the drilling parameter roadmap;
• while drilling the target wellbore and responsive to a target drilling parameter being outside an associated segment threshold, update the drilling parameter roadmap with a second subset of drilling parameters to generate an updated drilling parameter roadmap;
• and
• manage drilling of the target wellbore via the autonomous drilling system according to the updated drilling parameter roadmap.

A computer-readable storage medium including instruction that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the processor to:

• segment reference wellbore data from a reference wellbore into a plurality of depth segments using a statistical segmentation model and segmentation parameter data of a segmentation parameter set of the reference wellbore data, wherein the segmentation parameter set is a first subset of one or more drilling parameters from a plurality of drilling parameters in the reference wellbore data;
• generate a drilling parameter roadmap based on identifying a segment threshold for each drilling parameter of the reference wellbore data at each of the plurality of depth segments;
• manage drilling of a target wellbore via an autonomous drilling system according to the drilling parameter roadmap;
• while drilling the target wellbore and responsive to a target drilling parameter being outside an associated segment threshold, update the drilling parameter roadmap with a second subset of drilling parameters to generate an updated drilling parameter roadmap;
• and
• manage drilling of the target wellbore via the autonomous drilling system according to the updated drilling parameter roadmap.
