The interactive model for automatic calculation of the well cluster construction complex cost

Abstract

Currently, companies are consuming transitions to the development of the difficult oil and gas fields. The difficulty implies factors: features of geological conditions, remote geographic location, features of the relief. The development of new oil and gas fields requires design approaches that ensure maximum profitability on complex assets. One of the promising development options is the digitalization and automation of design processes. The paper proposes a new approach to assessing capital costs when designing well pads in the field. A new method is proposed for calculating costs and restrictions at the stage of resources for optimizing a well pad, taking into account detailed topography and resource availability through digitalization and automation. The problem was solved using an interactive ontological model with built-in knowledge bases and calculation algorithms. The model was tested at the field, the possible risks of using the model were assessed, and sufficient accuracy of the obtained values was obtained. The results of the work make it possible to improve the stage of optimization of the well pad, taking into account the costs of resources: drilling, engineering preparation, backfilling of the road, supply of communications, availability of resources and unforeseen costs. The work supports the trends of digitalization and technological processes and business processes. The developed model made it possible to digitize the stage of optimizing the location of the well pad, to automate the multifactor calculation of costs and restrictions. The results make the possible full automation for definition well pad placement, later on, taking into account detailed topography and resource availability.
