Potential of Al-powered directional drilling

摘要

A system looks to optimize value in directional drilling by minimizing deviation from planned wellbore trajectory, minimizing tortuosity and more. Directional drilling is a challenging task even during the best of conditions, with many aspects described as more art than science. Successful and cost-effective directional drilling often comes down to an expert who has a good feel of how to navigate thousands of feet underground, site unseen. Therefore, the art of drilling often comes down to the artists, who are in high demand and short supply.
