KNOWLEDGE-ORIENTED DECISION-MAKING METHODS IN SIMULATIONS OF TECHNOLOGICAL PROCESS SIMULATION

Abstract

The article presents the results of research in the field of simulation of drilling processes using modern computer modeling. The main parameters of the drilling process are determined as theoretical considerations aimed at introducing concepts related to simulation modeling and computer modeling in drilling. The analysis of the models used in the simulation of drilling processes is carried out. The basic characteristics of the simulator modeling are highlighted, which provides a holistic perception of technological processes, as well as any degree of their detailing. The main methods of modeling used in the development of automated control systems and simulators of industrial installations, ways of developing their software and some aspects of creating effective software and computer systems are presented. Further, a review of the essence of technological simulators is carried out, from a technical point of view, the current state of training systems for training operators of technological processes is highlighted. The differences between simulators and other teaching aids and the specifics of simulators for technical processes are presented. The characteristic features and prospects of simulator building in various industries are briefly described. The compulsory components of the simulators and the quality criteria of the simulators are determined. A study of the existing technical solutions for systems of the "Drilling simulators" class was carried out. Conclusions are made regarding the practical aspects of using modern engineering solutions for drilling simulators. The advantages are determined as a result of using simulators in various types of operational-tactical exercises, as the main form of improving the optimization of drilling control both for production tasks and training tasks. Particular emphasis is placed on the Drillsimm5000 simulator, which is used in the training of drilling specialists at the Ivano-Frankivsk Technical National University of Oil and Gas. From the standpoint of various services of the enterprise interested in purchasing simulators, the potential benefits of computer training and the tasks that need to be solved for the successful implementation of simulators are analyzed, problems associated with their implementation are presented.
