Certain aspects and features relate to a system that includes a drilling tool, a processor, and a non-transitory memory device that includes instructions that are executable by the processor to cause the processor to perform operations. The operations include receiving input data that corresponds to characteristics of at least one of drilling fluid, a drillstring, or a wellbore. The operations also include calculating at least one dynamic sideforce and at least one dynamic, hydraulic force based at least in part on the input data. The operations also include determining an equilibrium solution for an output value using the at least one dynamic sideforce and at least one dynamic, hydraulic force. The operations also include applying the output value to the drilling tool for controlling operation of the drilling tool.

A method for predicting and optimizing an ROP for oil and gas drilling based on Bayesian optimization includes: acquiring raw drilling data according to a preset sampling period, constructing an initial sample data set based on the raw drilling data, constructing an ROP prediction model based on the initial sample data set, and predicting an ROP at a next sample point through a Gaussian process regression based on the ROP prediction model. The present invention realizes rapid analysis of historical drilling data and accurate prediction of an ROP range at a sample point in a feasible domain. The method can obtain an optimized ROP and an optimized engineering parameter through Bayesian optimization, and obtain an engineering parameter corresponding to an optimal ROP. The method has few restrictions on the drilling engineering parameter and the raw formation parameter, improves prediction accuracy, and avoids the problem of blurred parameter value boundaries.

A method for downhole measurement operations. The method may include taking one or more measurements with a sensor disposed in a bottom hole assembly, converting the one or more measurements into one or more revolutions-per-minute (RPM) measurements, identifying one or more frequency components of the one or more RPM measurements using a Fast Fourier Transform, identifying one or more peaks of the one or more frequency components, and identifying torsional oscillation based at least in part on the one or more peaks.

A method of optimizing a design of a wellbore drilling operation based on at least one set of offset well data. A drilling path record for each offset well comprises a set of drilling parameters separated into depth segments. An optimization process determines a drilling dysfunction for each set of drilling parameter by comparing the drilling parameter to a maximum value. The optimization process determines the maximum rate of penetration for each depth segment by comparing the sets of drilling parameters without a drilling dysfunction. The optimization process generates an optimum drilling roadmap in response to determining the drilling parameters for the maxim um rate of penetration for each depth segment. A drilling operation can drill a wellbore via the optimum drilling roadmap.
