Deep Learning Applications for Drilling Performance: Forecasting, Diagnostics, Telemetry, and Predictive Maintenance

This book presents data driven approaches to improve drilling performance in geothermal, coiled tubing, and conventional operations. It begins with transformer models for forecasting rate of penetration in geothermal wells, followed by methods for predicting both penetration and downhole shock in coiled tubing drilling. A variational autoencoder framework is introduced for diagnosing resistivity t...
