Abstract: As the development of petroleum industry and progress of science ＆ technology, drilling technique will enter into a new phase of artificial intelligence drilling. The artificial intelligence and its two important branch-expert system and intelligence control for drilling engineering are introduced in this paper. It also rasises the concept and content of artificial intelligence drilling. According to the realities of drilling engineering,it provides a new Real-Time Expert Intelligence Control System (RTEICS). In combination with the advantage of traditional expert system and intelligence control it constructs an integrated artificial intelligence drilling system. The following are involved in the paper:principle and constitution of RTEICS;interface modes of expert system and control system. Furthermore it discusses details important to be solved in the RTEICS-real-time processing,stability,reliability,self-learning ability etc. In addition,it shows the prospects of artificial intelligence drilling for the twenty-first century.

Key words: artificial intelligence, expert system, intelligence control, intelligence drilling, real-time control, automatic drilling equipment

摘要： 随着石油工业的发展和科学技术的进步,钻井技术将进入人工智能钻井的新阶段。文中介绍了人工智能及其两个重要分支──专家系统、智能控制在钻井工程中的应用,给出了人工智能钻井的概念和内容。结合石油钻井工程的实际情况,提出了一种新型“实时专家智能控制系统”(RTEICS-Real Time Expert Intelligence ControlSystem),它综合了传统专家系统及智能控制的优点于一身,构成了一个完整的人工智能钻井系统。讨论了RTE-ICS的原理和构成,专家系统和控制系统的接口方式,以及需要解决的实时性、稳定性、可靠性、自学习性等问题。并展望了21世纪人工智能钻井的美好前景。
