Application status and development suggestions of artificial intelligence in drilling engineering

Artificial intelligence technology is an effective means to reduce cost and increase efficiency in oil and gas exploration and development, and is also an effective way to upgrade key technologies and improve competitiveness. This paper introduces the development stage and application advantages of artificial intelligence technology in drilling engineering, researches application status of artificial intelligence technology in drilling engineering at home and abroad, and analyzes the application progress in drilling optimization design, drilling parameters optimization, drilling trajectory control, well integrity monitoring, risk warning and drilling program decision-making. The key technologies applied in drilling engineering are pointed out, including real time sharing of drilling data, interpretation of internal logic rules of artificial intelligence, optimization of artificial intelligence algorithm and collaborative development of cloud computing and edge computing. Finally, analyzes the R&D layout and level of artificial intelligence technology of major oil and gas companies, combined with the demand of cost reduction and increase efficiency in oil and gas exploration and development. The research results can provide reference and research ideas for using artificial intelligence technology to realize drilling speed and efficiency improvement.
