Title: Downhole system and method for determining formation properties
Inventor: HALFORD FRANK R
IPC: E21B49/10
Filed: 1998-03-18
Abstract: A downhole tool (1) for taking formation fluid samples and determining formation properties is attached to a drill pipe or tubing stand (20), the tool is lowered into a borehole (13) by stands of drill pipe (20a). The wireline cable (21) can enter the pipe or tubing via a side-door sub (22) and also connects the tool to surface equipment establishing electrical communication. A probe or packer module (4) in fluid communication with the tool body engages the borehole wall (12). The borehole, downhole tool and drill pipe are all filled with drilling mud. By decreasing pressure within the tool formation fluid, both contaminated fluid (6) and less/uncontaminated reservoir fluid (7), begins to flow into the probe (4). The unwanted contaminated fluid (6) is found nearer to the borehole than the less/uncontaminated reservoir fluid (7) and is extracted first. An analyser in the tool can determine contamination levels. Unacceptable fluid (7) is pumped or flowed through the tool via a flowline (23) and into the drill pipe (20) where it is stored until it is disposed of at the surface. Once the flowing fluid reaches acceptable levels of contamination, this 'clean' fluid (6) is pumped or flowed into a sample chamber(s) (15) in the tool. Once sampling is completed the contaminated fluid is forced to the surface by opening a port (31) and pumping a different fluid down the borehole annulus, through the port and into the tool below the contaminated fluid and thereby filling the drill pipe and forcing the contaminated fluid up the drill pipe.

Title: Remote reading of utility meters
Inventor: DU LIAN SHI
IPC: G01F15/075
Filed: 1998-04-08
Abstract: An apparatus for remotely reading a utility meter, such as a gas or water meter, comprises an automatic meter reading means for sensing the rotation of the meter dials and for producing an output signal indicative of the meter reading. The output of the meter reading means 7 is transmitted via an antenna 10 which comprises a wire 14-16 wrapped around the utility supply pipe. The supply pipe is then used to transmit the data to the exterior of the premises where it is received by a correspondingly designed antenna. Readings from a plurality of premises may each have their own identification codes and may be collected locally via the supply network and subsequently transmitted to a central collection point via conventional data transmission means, eg optical fibres, telephony etc. The wire comprises a conducting core 14, surrounded by an insulative sleeve which includes male and female connecting portions 16,17 formed therein so that when the wire is wound around the pipe, each successive turn interlocks with the previous one. Rotation of the meter dials is sensed by use of a magnet and Hall effect arrangement.

Title: Fan cooled motor and pump with fan torque-release mechanism for submersed working
Inventor: OANDIL MARK M
IPC: H02K5/124
Filed: 1998-10-02
Abstract: A dry-pit submersible pump (10, fig 1) has a totally enclosed fan-cooled (TEFC) electric motor 20 to power the pump. A release mechanism prevents the fan 46 from creating excessive drag when submerged in water. The release mechanism can take the form of a shear key (44, fig 3), a torque-release clutch (70, fig 4) or flexible fan blades (86, fig 5). The fan cools the motor when the water level is below the motor, and the surrounding water combines with the fan to cool the motor when the water level rises to at least partially surround the motor. When the fan is at least partially submerged, the release mechanism substantially prevents the fan from imposing a load on the motor due to the surrounding water.
