Hi Alvaro Chaveste,

What if you could accurately map the subsurface without ever seeing it?

Horizontal drilling is a high-precision operation where staying within the  
optimal geological layer is critical. Each year, thousands of wells are  
drilled worldwide, and even small deviations can lead to significant  
production losses.

In partnership with ROGII Inc. to solve one of the biggest challenges in  
drilling: understanding subsurface geology in real time. Your goal is to  
build ML models that predict the geology along a horizontal wellbore,  
helping identify favorable layers and guide more accurate drilling  
decisions.


Total Prizes:

$50,000


Entry Deadline:

July 29, 2026

Your work could help minimize geological placement errors and move the  
industry toward more automated, data-driven operations.

Good luck,

Horizontal drilling is a high-precision operation where staying within the =
optimal geological layer is critical. Each year, thousands of wells are dri=
lled worldwide, and even small deviations can lead to significant productio=
n losses.<br>
<br>
In partnership with ROGII Inc. to solve one of the biggest challenges in dr=
illing: understanding subsurface geology in real time. Your goal is to buil=
d ML models that predict the geology along a horizontal wellbore, helping i=
dentify favorable layers and guide more accurate drilling decisions.=20
