近年来，钻井行业面临的最大问题之一是，钻井人员如何才能从来自钻机和井下的大量数据中获得最佳可操作见解？在 2024 年 IADC 先进钻机技术会议上，Canrig 和 Nabors Drilling Solutions 高级副总裁 Subodh Saxena 表示，数据可以成为帮助钻井人员在现场做出最佳决策的“绝佳均衡器”，使操作员能够从油井中释放更高的效率。8 月 28 日，在DC发表主题演讲后，Saxena 先生在会议上解释了他对数据驱动钻井的定义，以及公司内部可以帮助实现这一目标的个人和协作思维方式。他还讨论了如何通过彻底了解数据驱动钻井来帮助钻井人员更好地将自动化融入到他们的操作中。

One of the biggest questions facing the drilling industry in recent years is how can drillers best derive actionable insights from the significant amounts of data coming from the rig and downhole? At the 2024 IADC Advanced Rig Technology Conference, Subodh Saxena, Senior VP at Canrig and Nabors Drilling Solutions, said that data can be a “great equalizer” in helping drillers make optimal decisions onsite, allowing operators to unlock greater efficiencies from their wells. Speaking with DC from the conference following his keynote address on 28 August, Mr Saxena explained his definition of what data-driven drilling is, as well as the individual and collaborative mindsets within a company that can help enable it. He also discussed how a thorough understanding of data-driven drilling can help drillers better incorporate automation into their operations.
