In well drilling activities, the execution of a sequence of operations defined in a well project
is a central task. In order to provide proper monitoring, the operations executed during the …

Drilling activities in the oil and gas industry have been reported over decades for thousands
of wells on a daily basis, yet little effort was made to analyze this text in large-scale for …

This work addresses the problem of extracting events from human-written daily drilling
reports (DDRs) in an automated way. Two distinct approaches based on an expert system …

Remarks in daily drilling reports (DDR) and daily mud reports (DMR) are an invaluable
source of information for the analysis of ongoing operations and planning of future wells …

Drilling operations involve substantial planning and execution to achieve safe and cost
effective well delivery. To improve drilling efficiency by minimizing costly non-productive …

Abstract During Drilling and Completion (D&C) operations large volumes of data are
typically collected in oil and gas fields. These datasets typically contain hidden (valuable) …

Structured daily drilling reports (DDRs) are a rich source of information that allows better
planning, more accurate risk analysis, improved key performance indicators (KPIs), and …

In unconventional oil & gas fields, relative high well density and consistent well programs
lead to more data and potentials to improve operation by data-driven methods. In the fields …

Structured daily drilling reports (DDRs) are a rich source of information that allows better
