Abstract
Methods and systems for updating and/or predicting statistical reliability for downhole devices. In some embodiments, the statistical reliability for a device may be predicted prior to using the device to ensure the statistical reliability stays above a preset threshold. In other embodiments, the statistical reliability for a device is tracked substantially simultaneously with use, again to ensure its statistical reliability stays above a predetermined threshold.
