Title: Method to detect real-time drilling events

Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This application claims the benefit of and priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/815,973, filed Mar. 8, 2019, which is hereby incorporated by reference. 
    
    
     BACKGROUND 
     Throughout the lifetime of a well from construction to decommission operational parameters are monitored for trends and events, this may involve vigilance and focus across multiple well-site operations at differing geographic locations. Due to focus requirements on operations there may be limits on the number of operations an operator may monitor simultaneously. As used herein, an operator may include anyone who may monitor well operations. In a non-limiting example, operators may include but are not limited to, a monitoring engineer, an optimization engineer, the like, and/or any combination thereof. By monitoring specific real-time measured and predicted data characteristics and processing said data, detection of when an event is possible or when it is occurring may be automatically highlighted and/or may automatically notify the operator of said event and its occurrence or possible occurrence. Automatic notification of said event(s) may require less attention from the operator thereby increasing the amount/number of operations and/or well-sites an operator may monitor at any given time.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The disclosed methods and systems may provide a way to automatically detect and alert an operator concerning an event downhole or an event at the surface of the wellsite. Any event downhole may be detected including, but not limited to, hole cleaning, pack off, plugged bit nozzle, influx, losses, sag, pit movements, stuck pipe, surge and swab, hole enlargement, wellbore breathing, bit balling, the like, and/or any combination thereof. Any event at the surface may be detected, including but not limited to, unplanned bulk transfer, spill to sea, unplanned fluid treatment, washout of surface equipment, the like, and/or any combination thereof. Each event may be characterized by a predetermined rule and/or a set of rules based on known parameters and characteristics. Any suitable parameters and/or characteristics may be used. Each rule or set of rules may be specific to an event in which occurrence may be determined. Any suitable rule and/or set of rules may be used and should not be limited herein. Data collected in real-time may be used to calculate scores. In an embodiment, data may be collected from simulations, calculations, in real-time, from coefficient values, the like, and/or any combination thereof. These scores may be compared to the predetermined rule and/or set of rules. In an embodiment, if the scores do not follow the predetermined rules, then the occurrence of an event may have been detected and the operator may be automatically notified of said event. In an embodiment, if the scores do not follow the predetermined rules, then the probability of an event occurring at a time in the future may be detected and the operator may be automatically notified of the possible event. The operator may then adjust the parameters and/or take action to account and/or correct for the detected event and/or possible event. In an embodiment, the automatic detection of an event may be advantageous as it may allow an operator to monitor more operations and/or well-sites. It should be noted that while the present disclosure may be directed towards drilling operations, the disclosed system and methods may be used in any suitable application and should not be limited herein. Suitable downhole applications may include but are not limited to, lost circulation operations, fracturing operations, cementing operations, completion operations, production operations, the like, and any combinations thereof. In an embodiment, the present disclosure may be used to detect and/or plan for any surface events that may occur. In an embodiment, the present disclosure may be used to predict failure of well-site equipment and/or automated well-site equipment.

     In Equation (2), ( ) may denote the oldest data collected within the window being analyzed. In an embodiment, ( ) may also be referred to as the first section of the window being analyzed. ( ) may denote the most recent data collected within the window being analyzed. In an embodiment, ( ) may also be referred to as the third section of the window being analyzed. In an embodiment, the second section may not be used to calculate the score but rather may be used to separate the first section and the third section of the window. In certain embodiments, if the calculated score is above the predetermined rule and/or set of rules for all three sections, an event may have occurred and/or an event may be occurring and/or an event may occur within a specified time frame. In certain embodiments, if the calculated score for at least one section is not is above the predetermined rule and/or set of rules, an event may have not occurred. 
     In another embodiment, a score may be calculated if it is desired to determine a value above or below a set limit. In an embodiment, the score may be calculated using Equation (3), as shown below.

     In Equation (3), d may denote the current data point being evaluated, d set  may denote the set limit, and mad ( ) may represent the median absolute deviation between the normal difference between a simulated property and the actual property. In certain embodiments, if the calculated score is above or below the predetermined rule or set of rules, an event may have occurred and/or an event may be occurring and/or an event may occur within a specified time frame. In certain embodiments, if the calculated score is about the same as the predetermined rule or set of rules, an event may not have occurred. 
     The calculated scores may then be added up and compared to historical data and the predetermined rule and/or set of rules. A predetermined rule or set of rules may be established by a person or operator on-site or off-site and may be based on historical data and a scientific understanding of how the well operates. In a non-limiting example, a predetermined rule or set of rules may be established based on historical data and understanding each parameter and what their thresholds are. This predetermined rule or set of rules may be input into the system. If the scores, when compared to the historical data and the predetermined rule and/or set of rules, do not pass the rule and/or set of rules (e.g. provide a score higher than the rule allows for, etc.) this may indicate that an event may have occurred, may be occurring, may not occur, and/or the possibility of when an event may occur. This information may then be automatically transmitted to a display device thereby alerting an operator of the detected event. In an embodiment, the operator may be notified in any suitable manner of the occurrence of an event and should not be limited herein. The operator may then adjust parameters and/or take action to account and/or correct for the detected event and/or possible event. In an embodiment, the operator may not take action after the notification of the occurrence or possibility of occurrence of an event. In an embodiment, the operator may notify another party of the occurrence or possibility of occurrence of an event before taking action, after taking action, while taking action, or any combination thereof. In certain embodiments, the other party notified may respond to the occurrence or possibility of occurrence of an event. The other party may be located on-site or off-site at a remote location.

     To facilitate a better understand of the present technique, the following examples of some specific embodiments are given. In no way should the following examples be read to limit, or to define, the scope of the invention. 
     Examples 
     In an example, an event such as a pack off may be indicated by an increase in difference between predicted standpipe pressure (SPP) and actual SPP at constant flow. For this example, any data acquired when the flow is not constant was filtered out. Then the predicted SPP was compared to actual SPP and rules were determined. Example rules provided for this example may be related to the following factors, but are not limited to, hole cleaning, torque output, flow rate, pressure, the like, and/or any combination thereof. This scenario may be designed to be an example of a potential rule and not a specific, detailed rule. 
     In this example, the normal difference between simulated SPP and actual SPP was then determined. A profile was create by first defining what the system looks like acting normally and then the profile was searched for a specific divergence. However these systems are very complex. Depth, fluid type, formation, ROP, and a myriad of other parameters may affect measurements throughout our calculations. To simplify the problem, we may compare the current data to a sliding window of recent data as seen in  FIG. 5 . In an embodiment, the window size may be selected by an operator. In an embodiment, an operator may select multiple windows. The window of data being compared may be illustrated in  FIG. 5 . The red arrow may point to the current data being inspected. We then calculate a score to quantify how divergent the data is from normal behavior. Scores were then compared to the rules. It was determined that an event had not occurred and the operator was automatically notified. This is merely an example, and should not limit the present disclosure herein. 
     It should be understood that the compositions and methods are described in terms of “comprising,” “containing,” or “including” various components or steps, the compositions and methods can also “consist essentially of” or “consist of” the various components and steps. Moreover, the indefinite articles “a” or “an,” as used in the claims, are defined herein to mean one or more than one of the element that it introduces. 
     For the sake of brevity, only certain ranges are explicitly disclosed herein. However, ranges from any lower limit may be combined with any upper limit to recite a range not explicitly recited, as well as, ranges from any lower limit may be combined with any other lower limit to recite a range not explicitly recited, in the same way, ranges from any upper limit may be combined with any other upper limit to recite a range not explicitly recited. Additionally, whenever a numerical range with a lower limit and an upper limit is disclosed, any number and any included range falling within the range are specifically disclosed. In particular, every range of values (of the form, “from about a to about b,” or, equivalently, “from approximately a to b,” or, equivalently, “from approximately a-b”) disclosed herein is to be understood to set forth every number and range encompassed within the broader range of values even if not explicitly recited. Thus, every point or individual value may serve as its own lower or upper limit combined with any other point or individual value or any other lower or upper limit, to recite a range not explicitly recited. 
     Therefore, the present disclosure is well adapted to attain the ends and advantages mentioned as well as those that are inherent therein. The particular examples disclosed above are illustrative only, as the present disclosure may be modified and practiced in different but equivalent manners apparent to those skilled in the art having the benefit of the teachings herein. Although individual examples are discussed, the disclosure covers all combinations of all those examples. Furthermore, no limitations are intended to the details of construction or design herein shown, other than as described in the claims below. Also, the terms in the claims have their plain, ordinary meaning unless otherwise explicitly and clearly defined by the patentee. It is therefore evident that the particular illustrative examples disclosed above may be altered or modified and all such variations are considered within the scope and spirit of the present disclosure. If there is any conflict in the usages of a word or term in this specification and one or more patent(s) or other documents that may be incorporated herein by reference, the definitions that are consistent with this specification should be adopted.
