Abstract

A system for managing well site operations, the system comprising executable partitions, predictive engines, node system stacks, and a blockchain. The predictive engines comprise an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm to generate earth model variables using a physics model, well log data variables, and seismic data variables. The node system stacks are coupled to the blockchain, sensors, and machine controllers. Each node system stack comprises a Robot Operating System (ROS) based middleware controller, with each coupled to each partition, each node system stack, each predictive engine, and an AI process or processes. The blockchain comprises chained blocks of a distributed network. The distributed network comprises a genesis block and a plurality of subsequent blocks, each subsequent block comprising a well site entry and a hash value of a previous well site entry. The well site entry comprises operation control variables. The operation control variables are based on the earth model variables.
