Cross-Portfolio NPT Pattern Recognition
Reads daily drilling reports across the full field portfolio to surface recurring non-productive-time causes before a well spuds.

The Challenge
Non-productive time averages ~$2M per well for wellbore-stability events alone. After acquisitions no single engineer holds the cross-portfolio memory needed to recognize repeat failure modes.
How It Works
- Ingests historical DDRs, end-of-well reports, NPT codes, mud logs and BHA records.
- Clusters NPT events by cause - stuck pipe, losses, kicks - across legacy datasets.
- Briefs the team before each DWOP and alerts on patterns in real time during drilling.
What It Removes
- Repeating an NPT event the portfolio already solved
- Cross-portfolio memory held by one engineer
- NPT causes reviewed only after the well is done
Input Data RequirementsHistorical DDRs, end-of-well reports, NPT codes, mud logs, BHA records across every field
Output FormatPre-DWOP analogue briefing with root causes and mitigations, live NPT pattern alerts
“Before we spud, I know which failures this formation has already caused us elsewhere.”
