Abstract

During deep-water drilling, the pressure window between pore pressure and leakage pressure is narrow, leading to frequent gas kick incidents. Loss of control can lead to severe gas kick or well blowout, resulting in incalculable losses. Therefore, the early detection of gas kick to allow for efficient well control strategies has been a focus of research in recent years. This paper presents a machine learning-based approach and research framework for early warning of gas kick during deep-water drilling. This approach is also applicable to handle other complex downhole incidents.
