Abstract

Drilling operation relies on observing various devices, such as weight indicator, drilling equipment parameters, and logging display screen. This leads to high work intensity and difficulty in ensuring wellbore engineering safety and drilling speed, especially in complex well sections. To address these problems, this paper presents a smart driller pilot system for future automatic drilling. The paper introduces the working principle, calculation model, hardware composition, functional architecture, and field application of the system. The system can optimize parameters, provide drilling risk tips, engineering early warnings, expert instructions, and other functions in text, graphic, and voice modes. It aims to improve the driller’s precise operation and reduce the drilling accident and complexity rate. Field tests of 65 wells show that the system can increase drilling speed by 2% and decrease the drilling complexity rate by 3%.
