Modeling and Prediction of Drilling Rate of Penetration and Optimization of Parameters using Group Method of Data Handling Techniques (GMDH)

Rate of penetration (ROP) is a master parameter which has direct effect on drilling cost. So, this project is aimed to optimize drilling parameters and predict optimum rate of penetration (ROP).
Utilizing Group Method of Data Handling techniques (GMDH) for modeling and prediction, choosing GMDH particularly, because of it is capability to find the nonlinear relationship between drilling parameters and drilling rate of penetration. The previous models which provided some of it in the literature, has limitation to meet the required accuracy.
