| |
| ## Schema highlights |
| |
| **`drilling_timeseries.csv`** — the well-control telemetry spine. |
| Each well has 72 timepoints with **physics-coupled post-kick perturbations**: |
| |
| > pit_volume += influx_bbl × min(1.0, progress × 1.55) |
| > flow_out += 8 + influx_bbl × min(1.0, progress × 2.2) |
| > spp -= 40 + influx_bbl × progress × 1.5 |
| > gas_units += 30 + influx_bbl × progress × 6 |
| > mud_weight -= min(1.6, influx_bbl/120) × progress |
|
|
| This produces **classic kick signatures detectable from the timeseries**: |
| flow_out > flow_in, rising pit volume, falling standpipe pressure, |
| rising gas units. Critical for training kick-detection ML on realistic |
| sensor patterns rather than just labeled-event metadata. |
|
|
| **`bop_operations.csv`** — every kick triggers all 5 preventers per the |
| **API RP-53 + IADC BOP stack convention**: |
| |
| | Preventer | Closure Time (s) | Function | |
| |---|---:|---| |
| | Annular | 18 ± 4 | Soft-seal against varied pipe sizes | |
| | Upper pipe ram | 18 ± 4 | Pipe-specific hard seal (upper) | |
| | Lower pipe ram | 18 ± 4 | Pipe-specific hard seal (lower) | |
| | Blind shear ram | 23 ± 4 | Last-resort cut & seal (+5s for shear time) | |
| | Casing shear ram | 18 ± 4 | Cut casing for emergency disconnect | |
| |
| Activation success ~98.5% baseline, dropping to ~95% under escalation ≥4 |
| and ~94% under blowout — matching SINTEF OREDA reliability statistics. |
| |
| **`kick_events.csv`** — 7-class kick taxonomy weighted per Bourgoyne et al.: |
| gas kick 33% / swab kick 15% / loss-kick 12% / HPHT gas 12% / oil 8% / |
| water 10% / shallow gas 10%. Influx volume drawn from lognormal(μ=2.35, |
| σ=0.65) → median ~10 bbl, p90 ~25 bbl, matching industry envelope. |
|
|
| **`gas_influx_profiles.csv`** — gas expansion ratio computed from TVD via |
| `1 + tvd/2600` — physics-consistent ideal-gas law approximation |
| (BHP_factor / atm_factor ≈ TVD-dependent scaling). At ~13 kft TVD, |
| expected expansion is ~6× — exactly what the sample produces. |
|
|
| **`scenario_labels.csv`** — 4-class risk taxonomy mapped to training |
| class: |
| |
| | Label | Population | Trigger | |
| |---|---:|---| |
| | `normal_drilling` | ~86% | No kick | |
| | `kick` (medium risk) | ~8% | Kick detected, escalation < 4 | |
| | `kick` (high risk) | ~1% | Kick detected, escalation ≥ 4, no blowout | |
| | `blowout` (critical) | ~6% | Catastrophic escalation | |
| |
| The **6% catastrophic rate is intentionally elevated** for safety-training |
| ML (real-world per-well rates are ~0.1-0.3%); see "Honest disclosure" |
| section for the rationale. |

|
|
| ## Suggested use cases |
|
|
| 1. **Kick detection from timeseries** — train binary or sequence |
| classifiers on the 108,000-row drilling_timeseries to predict |
| `kick_detected_flag` from pit / flow / SPP / gas patterns. The |
| post-kick perturbations are physics-coupled, so models will learn |
| real well-control signatures. |
| 2. **BOP reliability ML** — predict `activation_status` and |
| `seal_integrity_score` per preventer from kick severity, blowout |
| risk, and equipment-failure features. |
| 3. **Blowout escalation prediction** — binary classifier on |
| `blowout_escalated_flag` from kick characteristics (influx volume, |
| detection delay, kick type, escalation level). |
| 4. **Kick type classification** — multi-class classifier (7 classes: |
| gas/oil/water/swab/loss-kick/shallow gas/HPHT gas) from |
| pre-detection telemetry features. |
| 5. **Alarm acknowledgment-delay regression** — predict |
| `acknowledgment_delay_sec` from alarm severity, crew training level, |
| and operational context. |
| 6. **Root cause analysis classification** — 10-class classifier on |
| `root_cause_category` from incident features for incident-review |
| automation. |
| 7. **Kill method selection** — predict optimal `kill_method` (6 classes) |
| from well geometry, kick characteristics, and BOP status. |
| 8. **Risk level scoring** — 4-class ordinal classifier on `risk_level` |
| (low/medium/high/critical) from upstream features for real-time |
| well-control dashboards. |
| 9. **Multi-table relational ML** — entity-resolution and graph-based |
| learning across the 13 joinable tables via `well_id` and `kick_id`. |

| ## Loading |
|
|
| ```python |
| from datasets import load_dataset |
| ds = load_dataset("xpertsystems/oil011-sample", data_files="drilling_timeseries.csv") |
| print(ds["train"][0]) |
| ``` |
|
|
| Or with pandas: |
|
|
| ```python |
| import pandas as pd |
| wells = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/xpertsystems/oil011-sample/wells_master.csv") |
| ts = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/xpertsystems/oil011-sample/drilling_timeseries.csv") |
| kicks = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/xpertsystems/oil011-sample/kick_events.csv") |
| bop = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/xpertsystems/oil011-sample/bop_operations.csv") |
| labels = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/xpertsystems/oil011-sample/scenario_labels.csv") |
| # Join timeseries to kick events |
| ts_with_kicks = ts.merge(kicks, on="kick_id", how="left") |
| ``` |

|
|
| ## Reproducibility |
|
|
| All generation is deterministic via the integer `seed` parameter (driving |
| both `random.seed` and `np.random.default_rng`). A seed sweep across |
| `[42, 7, 123, 2024, 99, 1]` confirms Grade A+ on every seed in this sample. |

|
|
| ## Honest disclosure of sample-scale limitations |
|
|
| This is a **sample** product for ML prototyping and safety-training research. |
| A few important notes: |
|
|
| 1. **Elevated kick and blowout rates are intentional for safety-training |
| data.** The sample's per-well kick rate (~14%) and blowout-given-kick |
| rate (~43%, vs IOGP global ~3-7%) are deliberately amplified via the |
| `blowout_escalation_rate=0.38` parameter. This produces a **balanced |
| training set with sufficient positive examples** of all escalation |
| levels — useful for ML, but **not representative of true field-rate |
| well-control incident frequencies**. For epidemiological modeling |
| of well-control incidents, scale down events to match IOGP Report |
| 432 baseline rates. |
|
|
| 2. **Successful-kill rate is ~53%, lower than industry success rates |
| (~85-95%).** This is a consequence of (1) above: with ~43% of kicks |
| escalating to blowout in the generator, `kill_success` is |
| constructed as `not blowout AND U(0,1) < 0.93`. For ML training on |
| kill-method selection this is fine; for kill-success forecasting, |
| re-weight the training set. |
|
|
| 3. **BOP activation timing is fast end of the API envelope.** Mean |
| closure time is ~18s, matching modern subsea BOPs but at the |
| aggressive end of the API 16D spec (annular <30s, ram <45s). Older |
| land-rig BOP stacks may run 25-40s. Adjust calibration if your |
| target audience is legacy onshore equipment. |
|
|
| 4. **Each kick triggers all 5 preventers** — generates 5 BOP rows per |
| kick deterministically. Real BOP procedures activate based on |
| escalation state (annular first, then rams, shear rams last). The |
| sample provides activation timing for every preventer regardless of |
| whether it would be procedurally invoked, useful for individual- |
| preventer reliability ML but not for activation-sequence modeling. |
|
|
| 5. **Time-series anomaly flag is uniform 3.1% Bernoulli** across all |
| timepoints (per `anomaly_injection_rate`) — does not concentrate |
| around kick events. For anomaly-detection ML, the `kick_id` non-NONE |
| timepoints are the true positive signal channel; the |
| `anomaly_flag` is sensor noise / data-quality drill. |
|
|
| 6. **`kick_severity` distribution is bimodal** (peaks at 1-2 and 4-5) |
| because blowout-escalated kicks override severity to {4, 5}. This |
| reflects the generator's coupling between blowout-flag and severity, |
| not a modeling error. For severity regression, condition on |
| `blowout_escalated_flag` to avoid label leakage. |
| |
| 7. **Equipment failures are sparse** (~12% of kicks have a failure |
| recorded), reflecting the conditional injection rate |
| `equipment_failure_rate=0.019 + 0.25*blowout + 0.05*high_escalation`. |
| For failure-mode ML, expect class-imbalanced learning conditions. |
