1. A method for drilling a well, the method comprising:
- prescribing a drill recipe using a drill analysis engine using a neural network or a regression based on a correlation determined from a field-specific model, the field-specific model including a synthetic proximity depletion variable, the drill recipe identifying drilling spin rates, weights, mudflow parameters, and prescribed segments between pulling a drill string, each prescribed segment of the prescribed segments including a start depth, wherein the synthetic proximity depletion variable is derived from, at least, a distance of adjacent wells and associated depletion curves;
initiating drilling of the well based on the drill recipe;
detecting a drill event inconsistent with the drill recipe;
prescribing an adjusted drill recipe using the drill analysis engine using the neural network or the regression based on the correlation determined from the field-specific model in response to the drill event, the adjusted drill recipe including adjusted prescribed segments; and
drilling the well based on the adjusted drill recipe.

Abstract
A method for drilling a well includes prescribing a drill recipe using a drill analysis engine based on a field-specific model. The drill recipe identifies prescribed segments. Each prescribed segment of the prescribed segments includes a start depth. The method further includes initiating drilling of the well based on the drill recipe; detecting a drill event inconsistent with the drill recipe; prescribing an adjusted drill recipe using the drill analysis engine based on the field-specific model in response to the drill event, the adjusted drill recipe including adjusted prescribed segments; and drilling the well based on the adjusted drill recipe.
