Improper cleaning of the horizontal and deviated wellbores is one of the major problems encountered during drilling process. Cuttings bed thickness is a key parameter to determine hole cleaning. In this study, computational intelligence techniques including k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Linear Regression and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) were employed to estimate cuttings bed thickness inside a wellbore with and without drill pipe rotation. Cuttings transport measurements for hole inclinations from horizontal to 60 degrees, rates of penetration from 0.0013 to 0.0038 m/s, flow velocities from 0.64 m/s to 1.59 m/s, and pipe rotations from 0 to 120 rpm were recorded to train the computational intelligence techniques. More than three hundred different datasets were performed and corresponding cuttings bed thickness values were obtained. The prediction results of computational intelligence techniques were satisfactory, when compared with experimental data. A t-test was conducted and insignificant difference between experimental and predicted data was concluded. ANN provided slightly better performance than the other models when they were compared with their RMSE, AAE, and AAPE values. However, K-nearest neighbor (kNN) can be modeled a lot faster than the other computational intellegence techniques. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
