AgentOil: A Multiagent-Based Simulation of the Drilling Process in Oilfields
Résumé
Oil&Gas have become the world’s most important source of energy since the mid-1950’s. For instance; Britain oilfields produce each year about 76 million tonnes of oil equivalent. This provides 76% of the UK’s total primary energy [5]. In oilfields wells, a drilling rig is used to create a bore-hole in the earth’s sub-surface with a Bottom Hole Assembly (BHA), which is a composition of several drilling tools with various functionalities, searching for natural resources.
