Abstract
The present disclosure provides a drilling system that comprises a drilling rig, a device box having a plurality of sensors monitoring operating parameters of the drilling rig, an OPC UA server receiving data from the plurality of the sensors, and an OPC UA client in communication with the OPC UA server. The OPC UA client has a client library between the client application layer and the client SDK layer, which converts a client application to an OPC UA operation.
