Abstract
Systems and methods for optimizing oilfield rig fleet scheduling and deployment are disclosed. Wells are identified to have time constraints by which they are grouped into 'ON', 'BY', and “ADD” categories. ON wells have a beginning drilling availability window; BY wells have an ending drilling availability time only; and ADD wells have no beginning or ending time of drilling availability. The systems and methods optimize scheduling with ON wells having higher priority than BY wells, and BY wells having higher priority than ADD wells.
