With the development of big data and deep learning, bus passenger flow prediction considering real-time data becomes possible. Real-time traffic flow prediction helps to grasp real-time passenger flow dynamics, provide early warning for a sudden passenger flow and data support for real-time bus plan changes, and improve the stability of urban transportation systems. To solve the problem of passenger flow prediction considering real-time data, this paper proposes a novel passenger flow prediction network model based on long short-term memory (LSTM) networks. The model includes four parts: feature extraction based on Xgboost model, information coding based on historical data, information coding based on real-time data, and decoding based on a multi-layer neural network. In the feature extraction part, the data dimension is increased by fusing bus data and points of interest to improve the number of parameters and model accuracy. In the historical information coding part, we use the date as the index in the LSTM structure to encode historical data and provide relevant information for prediction; in the real-time data coding part, the daily half-hour time interval is used as the index to encode real-time data and provide real-time prediction information; in the decoding part, the passenger flow data for the next two 30 min interval outputs by decoding all the information. To our best knowledge, it is the first time to real-time information has been taken into consideration in passenger flow prediction based on LSTM. The proposed model can achieve better accuracy compared to the LSTM and other baseline methods.

Objectives/Scope This paper presents how a brazilian Drilling Contractor and a startup built a partnership to optimize the maintenance window of subsea blowout preventers (BOPs) using condition-based maintenance (CBM). It showcases examples of insights about the operational conditions of its components, which were obtained by applying machine learning techniques in real time and historic, structured or unstructured, data. Methods, Procedures, Process From unstructured and structured historical data, which are generated daily from BOP operations, a knowledge bank was built and used to develop normal functioning models. This has been possible even without real-time data, as it has been tested with large sets of operational data collected from event log text files. Software retrieves the data from Event Loggers and creates structured database, comprising analog variables, warnings, alarms and system information. Using machine learning algorithms, the historical data is then used to develop normal behavior modeling for the target components. Thereby, it is possible to use the event logger or real time data to identify abnormal operation moments and detect failure patterns. Critical situations are immediately transmitted to the RTOC (Real-time Operations Center) and management team, while less critical alerts are recorded in the system for further investigation. Results, Observations, Conclusions During the implementation period, Drilling Contractor was able to identify a BOP failure using the detection algorithms and used 100% of the information generated by the system and reports to efficiently plan for equipment maintenance. The system has also been intensively used for incident investigation, helping to identify root causes through data analytics and retro-feeding the machine learning algorithms for future automated failure predictions. This development is expected to significantly reduce the risk of BOP retrieval during the operation for corrective maintenance, increased staff efficiency in maintenance activities, reducing the risk of downtime and improving the scope of maintenance during operational windows, and finally reduction in the cost of spare parts replacementduring maintenance without impact on operational safety. Novel/Additive Information For the near future, the plan is to integrate the system with the Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS), checking for historical maintenance, overdue maintenance, certifications, at the same place and time that we are getting real-time operational data and insights. Using real-time data as input, we expect to expand the failure prediction application for other BOP parts (such as regulators, shuttle valves, SPMs (Submounted Plate valves), etc) and increase the applicability for other critical equipment on the rig.

Abstract The ultimate objective of this paper is to describe the experience of using a machine learning model prepared by the ensemble method to prevent stuck pipe events during well construction process on extended reach wells. The tasks performed include collecting, analyzing and cleaning historical data, selecting and preparing a machine learning model, testing it on real-time data by means of desktop application. The idea is to display the solution at the rig floor, allowing Driller to quickly take actions for prevention of stuck pipe event. Historical data mining and analysis were performed using software for remote monitoring. Preparation, labelling and cleaning of historical and real-time data were executed using programmable scripts and big data techniques. The machine learning algorithm was developed using the ensemble method, which allows to combine several models to improve the final result. On the field of interest, the most common type of stuck pipe are solids induced pack offs. They occur due to insufficient hole cleaning from drilled cuttings and wellbore collapse due to rocks instability. Stuck pipe prevention on extended reach drilling (ERD) wells requires holistic approach meanwhile final role is assigned to the driller. Due to continuously exceeding ERD envelope and increased workloads on both personnel and drilling equipment, the effectiveness of preventing accidents is deteriorating. This leads to severe consequences: Bottom Hole Assembly lost in hole, the necessity to re-drill the bore and eventually to increased Non-Productive Time (NPT). Developed application based on ensemble machine learning algorithm shows prediction accuracy above 94%. Reacting on alarms, driller can quickly take measures to prevent downhole accidents during well construction of ERD wells.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> ETL (Extraction-Transform-Load) tools, traditionally developed to operate offline on historical data for feeding Data-warehouses need to be enhanced to deal with continuously increased streaming data and be executed at network level during data streams acquisition. In this paper, a scalable and web-based ETL system called NMStream was presented. NMStream is based on event-driven architecture and designed for integrating distributed and heterogeneous streaming data by integrating the Apache Flume and Cassandra DB system, and the ETL processes were conducted through the Flume agent object. NMStream can be used for feeding traditional/real-time data-warehouses or data analytic tools in a stable and effective manner.</p>
