Development and Practice of Cloud Collaborative Platform for Downhole Measurement Tools by Che Yang, Yuan Guangjie, Qian Hongyu, Du Weiqiang, Wang Chenlong, Ding Jiping

“…In the paper， based on the remote operation requirements of coreless magnetic steering tool， a platform architecture of five modules， including simulation rehearsal， virtual training， remote operation， smart tool and intelligent decision， was designed in detail， achieving a whole process digitization from predrilling risk assessment and in-drilling acquisition and processing to post-drilling feedback and optimization， and a visual interface was developed. Moreover， to solve the problem of low far-field ranging accuracy， multiple magnetic steering data mining algorithms such as support vector machine （SVM）， decision tree （DT）， multilayer perceptron （MLP） and convolutional neural network （CNN） were built and compared， indicating that the robustness and generalization of the multilayer perceptron algorithm is the best. …”
