A Skoltech study combining an LSTM model, SHAP explanations and the NSGA-III algorithm projects that better weight on bit, rotary speed and flow rate settings could raise the rate of penetration by up to 68.4% in one of three carbonate wells. We explain how the AI drilling optimization works, the results well by well, why a 68% faster speed means about 40% less drilling time, the study’s limits, and what its design offers industry beyond oil.
