Abstract

A system and method can be used for implementing self-adapting digital twins. The system may include operations for estimate a state matrix characterizing behavior of a hydrocarbon recovery process implemented by a hydrocarbon recovery tool. Observed values of one or more sensors for at least one process parameter may be obtained from sensors deployed throughout the drilling environment. These sensors may be physical sensors acquiring information about physical changes within the drilling environment; and processes monitoring output of system functions and/or other processes. A data assimilation tool may be applied to the estimated state matrix and the observed values to produce an updated state matrix. The updated state matrix may be used as the previous state matrix in a subsequent time step, thus implementing a self-adapting digital twin model.
