“…These pose high challenges on the underlying control algorithms and equipment, in view of the weakly known environmental dynamics coming from the winds and waves. In harsh sea conditions, the involved crane system must satisfy rigorous requirements in terms of safety and efficiency as shown in [24]. The well-established marine and offshore industry hydraulic systems are mostly space-consuming and require complex power sources and hydraulic circuits, while appearing as only conditionally environmental friendly due to risks related to leakages and openings.…”

“…During normal drilling operations the WF part of the drill-string motion is compensated by the heave control system (Korde (1998); Do and Pan (2008); Kuchler et al (2011b)). However, during connections the drill-string is disconnected from the heave compensation mechanism and rigidly connected to the rig.…”

Abstract:This paper presents a constrained finite horizon model predictive control (MPC) scheme for regulation of the annular pressure in a well during managed pressure drilling from a floating vessel subject to heave motion. In addition the robustness of a controller to deal with heave disturbances despite uncertainties in the friction factor and bulk modulus is investigated. The stochastic model describing sea waves in the North Sea is used to simulate the heave disturbances. The results show that the closed-loop simulation without disturbance has a fast regulation response, without any overshoot, and is better than a proportional-integralderivative (PID) controller. The constrained MPC for managed pressure drilling shows further improved disturbance rejection capabilities with measured or predicted heave disturbance. Monte Carlo simulations show that the constrained MPC has a good performance to regulate set point and attenuate the effect of heave disturbance in case of significant uncertainties in the well parameter values.

Abstract. The following work presents modelling, simulation and results of hydraulic motor and hydraulic cylinder position measurement for a hydraulic active heave compensation system (AHC). In order to perform experimental research the authors developed a test stand. A hydraulic cylinder is used to carry out a simulation of sea waves. The development of a test stand made it possible to compare the simulation with the experimental results. A hydraulic motor is used for compensation of sea waves. Optimization of design parameters for such systems can be done by analysing a model simulation. The main components of this system were modelled. This model was implemented in simulation software Mathlab Simulink and its dynamic performance was tested. The Authors presented the simulation and the experimental results for main components of a hydraulic active heave compensation system.
