Nabors, Corva Integrate RigCLOUD With AI, Adding Predictive Analytics for Rigs

1 articles · Updated · drillingcontractor.org · Jun 24

Summary

  • Nabors and Corva said their expanded alliance now links RigCLOUD edge computing with Corva AI, giving drilling operations new predictive analytics capabilities.
  • The integrated system connects RigCLOUD to Corva’s App Store and Developer Center, letting operators remotely send optimized Auto Driller setpoints directly to rig crews.
  • That setup is designed to improve real-time data processing and keep actionable recommendations flowing even when satellite bandwidth at the rig site is constrained.
  • The rollout extends an April alliance expansion and reflects a broader push to move more drilling intelligence to the edge, closer to on-site crews.
