Research on rate of penetration prediction for geothermal wells based on a transformer-GRU model

Rate of penetration (ROP) in geothermal drilling is jointly controlled by multiple operational variables and often shows strong fluctuations, which makes accurate prediction difficult. To address this issue, a Transformer-GRU-based prediction method for geothermal well ROP is proposed. First, the publicly available Uta...
