Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure include a casing installation monitoring system that monitors surface equipment (that is, equipment of a rig), provides information on casing installation operations (for example, hook load, torque, RPM, and cumulative fatigue) at various times and depths, provides initial casing installation guidelines, and provides alarms before and during the casing installation operation.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for installing a casing in a well, comprising:
 receiving data associated with a rig, the data comprising electronic drilling recorder (EDR) data, wherein the EDR data comprises hook load, string depth, revolutions-per-minute (RPM), torque, and block height;   determining, using the EDR data, a rig state associated with the rig; and   determining, using the EDR data, the rig state, or a combination thereof, casing installation data; and   providing the casing installation data on an interactive visualization platform on a display.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , comprising installing the casing the well. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the data associated with the rig comprises block weight. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the rig state is selected from the group consisting of running in hole (RIH), reaming in, tripping out of hole (TOOH), backreaming, rotating on and off Bottom (ROB), in slips, making a connection, a static state, and an unknown state. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the casing installation data comprises a plot of hook load vs depth or a plot of surface torque vs depth. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the casing installation data comprises a plot of cumulative fatigue vs depth. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the casing installation data comprises casing installation guidelines. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the casing installation data comprises well trajectory data comprising at least one of well position, well depth, or dogleg severity (DLS). 
     
     
         9 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having executable code stored thereon for monitoring a casing installation, the executable code comprising a set of instructions that causes a processor to perform operations comprising:
 receiving data associated with a rig, the data comprising electronic drilling recorder (EDR) data, wherein the EDR data comprises hook load, string depth, revolutions-per-minute (RPM), torque, and block height;   determining, using the EDR data, a rig state associated with the rig; and   determining, using the EDR data, the rig state, or a combination thereof, casing installation data; and   providing the casing installation data on an interactive visualization platform on a display.   
     
     
         10 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of  claim 9 , wherein the data associated with the rig comprises block weight. 
     
     
         11 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of  claim 9 , wherein the rig state is selected from the group consisting of running in hole (RIH), reaming in, tripping out of hole (TOOH), backreaming, rotating on and off Bottom (ROB), in slips, making a connection, a static state, and an unknown state. 
     
     
         12 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of  claim 9 , the operations comprising activating an alarm based on the EDR data. 
     
     
         13 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of  claim 9 , wherein the casing installation data comprises a plot of cumulative fatigue vs depth. 
     
     
         14 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of  claim 10 , wherein the casing installation data comprises a plot of hook load vs depth or a plot of surface torque vs depth. 
     
     
         15 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of  claim 9 , wherein the casing installation data comprises casing installation guidelines. 
     
     
         16 . A system for monitoring a casing installation, comprising:
 a processor;   non-transitory computer-readable storage memory accessible by the processor and having executable code stored thereon for monitoring a casing installation, the executable code comprising a set of instructions that causes the processor to perform operations comprising:
 receiving data associated with a rig, the data comprising electronic drilling recorder (EDR) data, wherein the EDR data comprises hook load, string depth, revolutions-per-minute (RPM), torque, and block height; 
   determining, using the EDR data, a rig state associated with the rig; and   determining, using the EDR data, the rig state, or a combination thereof, casing installation data; and   providing the casing installation data on an interactive visualization platform on a display.   
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 16 , wherein the data associated with the rig comprises block weight. 
     
     
         18 . The system of  claim 16 , wherein the rig state is selected from the group consisting of running in hole (RIH), reaming in, tripping out of hole (TOOH), backreaming, rotating on and off Bottom (ROB), in slips, making a connection, a static state, and an unknown state. 
     
     
         19 . The system of  claim 16 , wherein the casing installation data comprises a plot of cumulative fatigue vs depth. 
     
     
         20 . The system of  claim 16 , wherein the casing installation data comprises a plot of hook load vs depth or a plot of surface torque vs depth.
