Stuck pipe is one of the most frustrating and expensive challenges in drilling operations. It creates hours or days of non-productive time and increases operational risk across the entire campaign. But what if teams could see the warning signs before the event occurs? At Adaga, we’ve been developing a machine-learning module designed to predict stuck […]
In modern drilling, staying in the reservoir is everything. Every extra meter drilled inside the productive zone means more hydrocarbons recovered and higher project profitability. Yet operators often face blind spots in real-time formation evaluation, particularly when relying on a single data source. This case study highlights how integrating cuttings analysis with logging-while-drilling (LWD) data […]
When it comes to horizontal drilling, every foot counts. The closer you keep the wellbore inside the productive reservoir, the more profitable the project becomes. But making those decisions in real time isn’t easy—especially when your sensors are sitting a few meters behind the drill bit. That delay often causes costly detours into non-productive rock. […]
Digital transformation has been altering the way we process and consume information coming from the rig sensors. Gigabytes of real-time log data are being transferred and stored on WITSML servers and are readily available for the end-users. With increased computer and programming capabilities, these data can be utilized for both geosteering and drilling analytics purposes. […]
