OU study indicates potential for real-time eye tracking to improve driller's situational awareness, decision making

摘要

SITUATIONAL AWARENESS, OR THE lack thereof, can significantly impact an individuals decision making and performance on a drilling rig. "You can make your system as robust as possible, but if someone performing their job isn't aware or is missing some key cues, they can't deliver successfully," Raj Kiran, a PhD candidate in petroleum engineering at the University of Oklahoma (OU), said at the 2018 IADC/SPE Drilling Conference in Fort Worth, Texas, on 7 March.
