Claim 7:
8. The method of claim 6, further comprising:
determining, by a computer processor, a correlation coefficient between the predicted ROP curve and the actual ROP curve for the field of interest;
determining, by a computer processor, an “efficiency” type if the obtained optimum MSE value is within the targeted efficient MSE range and the correlation coefficient between the predicted ROP curve and/or the actual ROP curve is above a threshold; and
determining, by a computer processor, an “inefficiency” type if the obtained optimum MSE is outside the targeted efficient MSE range and the correlation coefficient between the predicted ROP curve and/or the actual ROP curve is below a threshold.
