| 摘要 |
The disclosed embodiments include a system, method, or computer-program product configured to performing automated wellbore trajectory control for correcting between an actual wellbore trajectory path and a planned wellbore trajectory path. For example, in one embodiment, a 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 wellbore trajectory control to change the actual wellbore trajectory path to a minimum-incremental wellbore energy correction path using provided correction constraints. The correction path may optionally include spline, catenary, circular arc, or clothoid curves. |
