Method and criteria for trajectory control

The disclosed embodiments include a method, apparatus, and computer program product configured to performing automated downhole wellbore trajectory control for correcting between an actual wellbore trajectory path and a planned wellbore trajectory path. For example, in one embodiment, a PID controller is configured to obtain real-time data gathered during the drilling operation, determine whether the actual wellbore trajectory path deviates from the planned wellbore trajectory path, and automatically initiate the downhole wellbore trajectory control to change the actual wellbore trajectory path to a modified correction path that is determined using a minimum incremental wellbore energy method.

A pressure control device maintains a pressure within a target of pressure control at a set pressure. The pressure control device includes a correction circuit that corrects a pressure signal, which represents the pressure within the target of pressure control that is detected by a pressure sensor, such that the pressure signal approaches a set pressure signal representing the set pressure; a comparison circuit that compares the corrected pressure signal with the set pressure signal; and a valve drive circuit that controls an opening and closing of a flow control valve based on a comparison result from the comparison circuit. The correction circuit is a filter circuit. The frequency characteristic of the filter circuit has a peak at a prescribed frequency, and corrects the pressure signal so as to raise a component of the prescribed frequency of the pressure signal.

INDUSTRIAL MACHINE DIAGNOSIS AND MAINTENANCE USING A CLOUD PLATFORM

A cloud-based diagnosis and maintenance system facilitates discovery and indexing of plant-wide data residing on various data platforms across multiple industrial facilities. The system includes an indexing system that automatically inventories industrial devices and other data sources located throughout the facilities, and identifies available data items on each data source. The indexing system indexes the discovered data items in a federated data model that can subsequently be searched to locate data items or tags of interest. The diagnosis and maintenance system also includes analysis tools that facilitate cross-facility analysis of the data model, allowing performance metrics to be compared across similar automation systems at different facilities. The system can also generate recommendations for improving performance metrics based on results of the comparative analysis.
