Digital Transformation in Drilling: 25-35% Efficiency Gains Through Automated Reporting, Analytics, and Scheduling

Non-productive time (NPT) and inefficient operational workflows continue to impose substantial economic and operational burdens on drilling programs worldwide. Daily rig costs frequently range from $120,000 to $250,000, with NPT routinely accounting for 20–40% of total operating hours and fragmented processes adding...

A Hybrid Physics-Informed Machine Learning and Causal-Analysis Framework for Real-Time Prediction and Prescriptive Minimization of Non-Productive Time Using Reference Wells

Non-productive time (NPT) continues to represent one of the largest controllable costs in drilling operations, frequently consuming 20–30 % of total rig time and generating losses that can easily reach several hundred thousand dollars per well. The work described here introduces a hybrid analytical framework that com...
