Abstract
The disclosure presents solutions for determining a casing wear parameter. Image collecting or capturing devices can be used to capture visual frames of a section of drilling pipe during a trip out operation. The visual frames can be oriented to how the drilling pipe was oriented within the borehole during a drilling operation. The visual frames can be analyzed for wear, e.g., surface changes, of the drilling pipe. The surface changes can be classified as to the type, depth, volume, length, shape, and other characteristics. The section of drilling pipe can be correlated to a depth range where the drilling pipe was located during drilling operations. The surface changes, with the depth range, can be correlated to an estimated casing wear to generate the casing wear parameter. An analysis of multiple sections of drilling pipe can be used to improve the locating of sections of casing where wear is likely.
