Abstract:The rate of penetration (ROP) is a manifestation of drilling efficiency, and optimizing drilling parameters is an important way to improve it. To achieve a low ROP for a Permian formation in a certain oil and gas field, three single wells in this formation were selected for optimization. An improved fireworks optimization algorithm was proposed for drilling parameter optimization. We first established the objective function that predicted the ROPs for the three wells. The objective function employed a multilay… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
