基于人工智能（AI）的数字钻井技术已在厄瓜多尔两个成熟油田实施，这两个油田占该国石油产量的33%。钻井活动的主要策略包括在两台钻机上部署新型自动化解决方案，从而优化建井过程。在完整的论文中，作者介绍了 2022 年应用于 20 口井的钻机自动化解决方案的实施结果。
作者详细介绍了钻井软件的验证、优化和实施，以实现工作流程自动化以及相关硬件组件的安装和调试。制定了以下关键指标和目标：
该数字解决方案是一种先进的软件系统，可为钻机带来自动化功能，类似于汽车中的不同自动化级别。
Artificial intelligence (AI)-based digital drilling technology was implemented in two mature fields in Ecuador that represent 33% of the country’s oil production. The drilling campaign’s main strategy included the deployment of a novel automation solution on two rigs, resulting in the optimization of the well-construction process. In the complete paper, the authors present the results of implementation of a rig-automation solution applied to 20 wells in 2022.
The authors detail the validation, optimization, and implementation of a drilling software to automate work flows and the installation and commissioning of associated hardware components. The following key indicators and objectives were established:
The digital solution is an advanced software system that brings automation capabilities to drilling rigs, analogous to the different levels of automation found in automobiles.
