SYSTEM AND CONSOLE FOR MONITORING AND MANAGING WELL SITE OPERATIONS

摘要

A well advisor system and console for monitoring and managing well drilling and production operations. The system may be accessed through one or more workstations, or other computing devices, which may be located at a well site or remotely. The system is in communication with and receives input from various sensors. It collects real-time sensor data sampled during operations at the well site. The system processes the data, and provides nearly instantaneous numerical and visual feedback through a variety of graphical user interfaces ("GUIs"), which are presented in the form of an operation-specific console. The input and data provides information related to rate of penetration concerning a well being drilled, and present the information for related parameters in real time against a plotted "fairway" of determined maximum and minimum values, with a focus on the safety of the drilling operation.
