SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PREDICTING AND VISUALIZING DRILLING EVENTS

摘要

Predicting and visualizing drilling events. At least some of the example embodiments are methods including: receiving data indicative of location of a first wellbore; identifying an offset well, the offset well within a predetermined distance of the first wellbore, the identifying by the computer system based on the data indicative of location of the first wellbore; reading data associated with the offset well, the reading by the computer system; generating a value indicative of probability of occurrence of a drilling event based on the data associated with the offset well; plotting the value indicative of probability of occurrence of the drilling event associated with a direction relative to the first wellbore, the plotting on a display device coupled to the computer system; and then adjusting a drilling parameter of the first wellbore based on the value indicative of probability of occurrence of the at least one drilling event.
