Generator output adaptation with in-line drive-sense circuit

A rotating equipment system with in-line drive-sense circuit (DSC) electric power signal processing includes rotating equipment, in-line drive-sense circuits (DSCs), and one or more processing modules. The in-line DSCs receive input electrical power signals and generate motor drive signals for the rotating equipment. An in-line DSC receives an input electrical power signal, processes it to generate and output a motor drive signal to the rotating equipment via a single line and simultaneously senses the motor drive signal via the single line. Based on the sensing of the motor drive signal via the single line, the in-line DSC provides a digital signal to the one or more processing modules that receive and process the digital signal to determine information regarding one or more operational conditions of the rotating equipment, and based thereon, selectively facilitate one or more adaptation operations on the motor drive signal via the in-line DSC.

A feedback control device that takes information regarding a control deviation between a measured value and a desired value of a controlled object as input, and outputs a manipulated variable for the controlled object, includes: a first control unit that takes information regarding the control deviation as input, and outputs a manipulated variable for the controlled object; a second control unit that takes information regarding the control deviation as input, and that includes a learning control unit in which a parameter for outputting a manipulated variable for the controlled object is determined by machine learning; and an adder that adds a first manipulated variable output from the first control unit and a second manipulated variable output from the second control unit. A manipulated variable from the adder is output to the controlled object, and the second control unit includes a limiter that limits the second manipulated variable.

Automated production optimization technique for smart well completions using real-time nodal analysis

Systems and methods include a method for multi-segmented oil production. A multi-segmented well production model representing production at a multi-segmented oil production facility is calibrated. The model models production based on well rates and flowing bottom-hole pressure data at various choke settings for multiple flow conditions for each segment of the multi-segmented well. Real-time updates to the well rates and the flowing bottom-hole pressure data are received. Changes to triggers identifying thresholds for identifying production improvements are received. The model is re-calibrated based on the changes to the triggers and the real-time updates. An optimization algorithm is executed to determine new optimal inflow control valve (ICV) settings. Using the re-calibrated multi-segmented well production model, a determination is made whether the new optimal ICV settings improve production. If so, the optimal ICV settings are provided to a control panel for the multi-segmented oil production facility.

Machine control using real-time model

A priori geo-referenced data is obtained for a worksite, along with field data that is collected by a sensor on a work machine that is performing an operation at the worksite. A predictive model is generated, while the machine is performing the operation, based on the geo-referenced data and the field data. A model quality metric is generated for the predictive model and is used to determine whether the predictive model is a qualified predicative model. If so, a control system controls a subsystem of the work machine, using the qualified predictive model, and a position of the work machine, to perform the operation.
