Abstract
A drilling rig site may include at least one tubular configured to be inserted into a wellbore at the drilling rig, at least one imaging device configured to detect a location of an end of the at least one tubular or a feature of the at least one tubular, and a processor receiving an input from the at least one imaging device and configured to calculate a distance between the end of the at least one tubular and another element, a diameter of the at least one tubular, or movement of the at least one tubular. A method for completing a drilling operation at a rig site, may include capturing an image of a tubular at a rig site, the tubular configured to be inserted into a wellbore at the rig site, detecting a location of an end of the tubular or a feature of the tubular from the image, and determining a diameter of the tubular, a distance between the detected end of the tubular and another element, or movement of the tubular.
