Abstract
Distributed artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to monitor a wellbore operation in some examples described herein. In one such example, physical equipment can be positioned at a surface of a wellsite to support a drilling operation at the wellsite. Each piece of physical equipment may include a sensor module, a processor communicatively coupled to the sensor module, and a memory. The memory can include an AI module configured to determine a condition associated with the equipment by analyzing sensor data from the sensor module using one or more machine-learning models. The memory additionally can include a warning module for causing the processor to output a warning notification based on the condition. The memory further can include a communications module for causing the processor to transmit a communication indicating the condition to a destination via a network. The communication may be different from the warning notification.
