Summary: | Predictive models have been widely used in different engineering fields, as well as in petroleum engineering. Due to the development of high-performance computer systems, the accuracy and complexity of predictive models have been increased significantly. One of the common methods for prediction is artificial neural network (ANN). ANN models in combination with optimization algorithms provide a powerful and fast tool for the prediction and optimization of processes which take a large amount of time if they are simulated using common simulation technics. In the present paper, to predict penetration rate during drilling process, several ANN models were developed based on the data obtained from drilling of a gas well located in south of Iran. Regarding the R2 and RMSE values of the developed models, the best model was selected for prediction of penetration rate. In the next step, artificial bee colony algorithm was used for optimization of the parameters which are effective on rate of penetration (ROP). Results showed that the model is accurate enough for being used in the prediction and optimization of ROP in drilling operations. |
