A system and method that includes querying a database to obtain offset well data collected while drilling previously drilled wells. The system and method also include determining if at least one risk is identified with respect to a planned well based on the offset well data. The system and method additionally include generating a machine learning model based on the at least one risk that is identified based on the offset well data. The system and method further include predicting at least one drilling risk based on the machine learning model, wherein a drill plan that includes drilling parameters is adjusted based on the at least one predicted drilling risk.

Automated offset well analysis

A method, computing system, and non-transitory computer-readable medium, of which the method includes receiving offset well data collected while drilling one or more offset wells, generating a machine learning model configured to predict drilling risks from drilling measurements or inferences, based on the offset well data, receiving drilling parameters for a new well, determining that the drilling parameters are within an engineering design window, generating a drilling risk profile for the new well using the machine learning model, and adjusting one or more of the drilling parameters for the new well, after determining the drilling parameters are within the engineering design window, and after determining the drilling risk profile, based on the drilling risk profile.

A method can include receiving sensor data from a system; encoding the sensor data to a latent space representation via a trained encoder; generating a control action using the latent space representation; and issuing an instruction that corresponds to the control action for control of the system.
