Patent CA-2440991-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CERNOSEK JAMES T
IPC: E21B49/08
Filed: 2002-03-12
Abstract: An apparatus (20) and method is given for evaluating a well fluid sub-sample at the well surface as the sample is transported to the well surface from a downhole wellbore location (11). The invention collects a formation fluid sample under pressure. The fluid sample is further pressurized with a travelling piston (94) powered by the hydrostatic wellbore pressure. The pressurized formation fluid sample is contained under high pressure within a fixed volume chamber (95) for retrieval to the well surface. Multiple collection tanks (30) can be lowered into the wellbore during the same run to sample different zones with minimal rig time. A pair of valves (75 and 76) in series along the supply/discharge conduit (78) respective to each tank (30) accommodates extraction of a filed sample to verify the sample integrity while still on location. The tanks (30) can be emptied at the well surface with an evacuation pressure so that the fluid sample pressure is maintained above a selected pressure at all times or transported to an analytical laboratory.

Title: A food supplement containing essential fatty acids and products therefrom
Inventor: STEWART JAMES F
IPC: A23K1/10
Filed: 2002-04-23
Abstract: This invention describes feed supplement, and processes which increase the amount of essential fatty acids in the milk, eggs, meat and other by-products from animals including dairy cattle, beef cattle, goats and poultry. The food supplement described herein includes specific fish meal, fish oil, algae or plant dietary supplements combined with a natural ingredient/coating mixture, which can be either talc, clay or combinations; or mixtures of talc or clay with flax sprout powder to achieve enhanced levels of the essential fatty acids in the milk, eggs, meat and processed livestock products from animals fed this dietary supplement. In ruminants, the natural ingredient/coating mixture prevents microbial degradation of the essential fatty acids in the rumen stomach of the animals fed with this composition, thus providing more of the essential fatty acids to the animal, for their use. This in turn results in improved concentrations in the milk, meat and processed products from these animals. Poultry fed with this food supplement also have a higher concentration of essential fatty acids in their eggs and meat.
