1. A method for controlling a state of a first tube, said first tube being intended to be integrated in an extraction structure, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising computer-executable instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause a first server to perform a method of managing a digital descriptor of the first tube, said digital descriptor comprising a first set of data stored on at least a first memory, said first set of data comprising at least: one tracking code of the first tube and; a completion status and a planification status, wherein said method furthermore comprises: authenticating the first tube by capturing the tracking code of the first tube; generating a first request to the first server from a computer located near the first tube; acquiring an identification number in order to generate an inventory status of the first tube; acquiring a first value of the completion status of the first tube; acquiring a second value of the planification status of the first tube; generating at least one alert when the first or the second value is equal to a predefined state value.
