AUTOMATED DRILLING SYSTEM

摘要

A drilling system comprises a drilling parameter sensor in communication with a sensor application 22 that generates processed data from raw data that is received from the drilling parameter sensor. A process application 24 is in communication with the sensor application 22 and generates an instruction based on the processed data. A priority controller is in communication with the process application 24 and evaluates the instruction for release to an equipment controller 14 that then issues the instruction to one or more drilling components.
