Abstract: Produced water, for example from a steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) or cyclic steam stimulation (CSS) heavy oil recovery operation, is treated to recover water that is reused to create steam. The produced water is treated in one or more thermal treatment devices such as an evaporator and a crystallizer. The thermal treatment device is seeded, for example with a calcium or magnesium salt. The thermal treatment device produces a blowdown or slurry comprising super-saturated solids and organic compounds. A solvent is added to the blowdown or slurry. The solids precipitate and are separated from the blowdown or slurry. The solvent may be recovered for re-use in treating more blowdown or slurry.

Title: A composite lifting stage
Inventor: LAI JIANYAN
IPC: E04H3/26
Filed: 2012-11-08
Abstract: A composite lifting stage comprises a main stage, sub-stages and a main control system.  The main stage comprises a base structure, fixed guiding means for the main stage and driving means for the main stage, wherein the base structure is a steelwork. The fixed guiding means for the main stage are arranged at the both ends of the base structure, and the driving means for the main stage comprise symmetrically arranged hydraulic cylinders and hydraulic drivers.  The top end of the hydraulic cylinders are secured to a primary truss under the base structure, the base structure is supported and driven to move vertically using hydraulic jacking, such as to avoid large deformations in the lifting platforms. The hoistable sub-stages are fixed on platform surface of the main stage. While the main stage moves vertically, the sub-stages move relatively in the vertical direction, or, otherwise, the sub-stages move independently.  The sub-stages can move either all synchronously, separately, or in group. In such a way, more flexible kinetic effect can be achieved to meet the requirements of the performance better, and the travel range of the entire lifting stage can be increased.

Abstract: A lightweight rig mat comprises a cellular soil stabilization material, with a plastic foam injected into the cells of the cellular material to provide required load-carrying capacity. The cellular material is preferably treated with a bonding agent to promote a structural bond between the plastic foam and the cellular material, thereby enhancing the overall shear strength, structural integrity, and flexural rigidity of the mat.  The cell walls may also have textured surfaces to enhance the bond with the foam. The walls between the cells in the cellular material may have perforations to permit foam to flow between cells during the foam-injection process. The mat may be formed with connector pockets to facilitate interconnection of adjacent mats using suitable connection means, so as to prevent lateral separation between mats while allowing articulation between adjacent mats to accommodate irregular ground surfaces.
