Abstract

A system and method that include receiving constraints that are specified as points in a three-dimensional coordinate system that represent a geological environment that includes a surface position and a subterranean portion of a wellsite and receiving data collected from at least one offset well that is located near the wellsite that pertain to a geology and at least one condition related to drilling of the at least one offset well and determining a set of points through which a wellbore is extendable at the wellsite. The system and method additionally include generating at least one well plan that is based on the constraints and the set of points for constructing a well associated with the wellbore. The system and method further include transmitting the at least one well plan to a drilling system to execute the at least one well plan to control drilling equipment to construct the well.
