Patent CA-2648017-C (CA)
Inventor: HOCKING GRANT
IPC: E21B43/267
Filed: 2007-03-09
Granted: 2015-05-12
Abstract: The present invention involves a method and apparatus for enhanced recovery of petroleum fluids from the subsurface by injection of a steam and hydrocarbon vaporized solvent in contact with the oil sand formation and the heavy oil and bitumen in situ. Multiple propped hydraulic fractures are constructed from the well bore into the oil sand formation and filled with a highly permeable proppant. Steam, a hydrocarbon solvent, and a non-condensing diluent gas are injected into the well bore and the propped fractures. The injected gas flows upwards and outwards in the propped fractures contacting the oil sands and in situ bitumen on the vertical faces of the propped fractures. The steam condenses on the cool bitumen and thus heats the bitumen by conduction, while the hydrocarbon solvent vapors diffuse into the bitumen from the vertical faces of the propped fractures. The bitumen softens and flows by gravity to the well bore, exposing fresh surface of bitumen for the process to progressively soften and mobilize the bitumen in a predominantly circumferential, i.e. orthogonal to the propped fracture, diffusion direction at a nearly uniform rate into the oil sand deposit. The produced product of oil and dissolved solvent is pumped to the surface where the solvent can be recycled for further injection.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un document XML pouvant être représenté sous une forme binaire compacte permettant de conserver toutes les caractéristiques des données XML sous une forme utilisable. En réponse à une demande de modification (par exemple, une insertion, un effacement ou une mise à jour de noeud) à apporter à un document XML stocké sous la forme binaire compacte susmentionnée, une certaine représentation de la modification demandée est calculée pour une application directe sur la forme binaire du document. Ainsi, la modification demandée est appliquée directement sur la forme binaire stockée de manière persistante, sans construction d'un arbre objet, ni matérialisation du document XML sous une forme textuelle correspondante. Les octets nécessitant réellement une modification sont identifiés en tenant compte de la nature de la forme binaire sous laquelle le document est codé, cette identification implique d'identifier l'endroit de la représentation binaire où les modifications réelles correspondantes doivent s'effectuer.

Abstract: A branch for distributing granular material includes an inlet portion, a transition portion downstream of the inlet portion, and an outlet portion downstream of the transition portion. Each portion has a critical air flow rate that is required to cause the granular material to flow through the respective portion. The branching that occurs at the transition portion results in the critical air flow rate of the transition portion being greater than the critical air flow rate of the inlet portion, typically requiring an amount of air at least equal to the critical air flow rate of the transition portion to flow granular material through the branch. In the disclosed branch, the inlet portion is oriented relative to the outlet portion such that applying air to substantially equal the critical air flow rate of the inlet portion results in granular material being urged by gravity to move through the transition portion and into the outlet portion.

Abstract: Provided is a method and apparatus for location notification using location context information. In accordance with an embodiment of the disclosure, a mobile device automatically generates location context information that indicates a point of interest in a vicinity of the mobile device. For example, if the user of the mobile device is at home, then the location context information indicates that the user is at home instead of merely indicating latitude/longitude information corresponding to the location of the home. The mobile device displays the location context information in order to convey the location of the mobile device in a manner that is meaningful without the need for a map. Alternatively, or additionally, the mobile device provides the location context information to at least one other device. This serves to inform other users of the location of the mobile device in a manner that is meaningful without the need for a map.

Abstract: In a Coriolis flowmeter, a vibrator vibrates flow tubes. A phase difference and/or a vibration frequency proportional to a Coriolis force acting on the flow tubes are/is detected by vibration detection sensors to obtain a mass flow rate and/or density of the fluid to be measured. The Coriolis flowmeter measures a frequency based on an input signal frequency of one of the sensors, of two flow rate signals obtained by A/D conversion on detection signals from a pair of the vibration detection sensors, transmits by a transmitter a desired frequency signal based on the measured frequency, adds or subtracts detection frequencies from the pair of the vibration detection sensors to or from an output frequency of the transmitter to perform frequency conversion, and measures a phase difference between respective frequency signals which are detected by the pair of the vibration detection sensors and obtained by the frequency conversion.
