Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a system, apparatus and method for guiding a drill bit based on forces applied to a drill bit, and drilling methods related to same.

Claim (Index 1):
A control system configured to guide a drill bit along a well path during a drilling operation, the control system comprising:\n at least one sensor configured to be carried by a drill string component adjacent to the drill bit, the at least one sensor configured to obtain measurements indicative of one or more forces applied to the drill bit during a drilling operation; at least one communications module in communication with the at least one sensor; and at least one controller in communication with the at least one communications module, the at least one controller configured to, in response to receipt measurements indicative of the one or more forces applied to the drill bit, determine 1) if the one or more forces applied to the drill bit has caused the drill bit to deviate from a planned well path, and 2) cause the redirection of the drill bit in a direction toward the planned well path.
