Abstract: a method of using a reinforcement learning algorithm to plan a horizontal well characterized by a starting point (heel (te)) and an end point (toe (td)) under a surface location comprises defining an environment for the well that takes into account depth constraints, hazard areas and the existence of pre-existing wells, executing a reinforcement learning algorithm that i) uses initial target te and td locations, ii) makes a determination whether a well can be planned in the environment using (te, td) and if it cannot, iii) executes actions to change the target locations to new locations, and determines a state and a reward for the new locations. one of the new locations obtains a higher reward as is-a favored location. it is then determined whether a well can be planned at the favored location based on the environment, and, if so, te, td and control points of the favored location are returned.
