Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0004] (1) Traditional drilling engineering design methods: Traditional drilling engineering design mainly relies on professional drilling design software, and designers need to spend a lot of time and energy on data processing and analysis. In addition, the design process involves multiple professional fields, such as geology, drilling, and completion, and communication and collaboration between departments are difficult.
[0005] (2) Online collaborative work platform
[0006] In recent years, online collaborative work platforms have gradually been applied to engineering project management. However, the application of existing online collaborative platforms in drilling engineering design is still insufficient, mainly manifested in the following aspects:
[0007] a. Lack of professionalism: Existing platforms lack professional design tools and modules for drilling projects, making it difficult to meet the needs of drilling project design.
[0008] b. Insufficient data security: Drilling engineering design involves a large amount of sensitive data, and existing platforms have hidden dangers in data security and confidentiality.
[0009] c. Insufficient adaptability: The drilling site environment is complex and changeable, and the existing platform is difficult to adapt to the actual needs of the site, resulting in a large deviation between the design results and the actual construction. Summary of the Invention
