Abstract: A fuel economizer includes a housing, at least two magnetic members haviang sides of the same polarity facing each other, and at least one covering member. The housing forms a primary receiving compartment and has at least one end forming an opening. The two magnetic members are positioned closed to each other with the sides thereof having the same polarity facing each other and are deposited in the primary receiving compartment.  The open end of the housing is closed by the covering member to thereby form the economizer. The covering member forms apertures to allow liquid to flow through the primary receiving compartment. The housing may further forms secondary receiving compartments on opposite sides of the primary receiving compartments for receiving therein far infrared particles.  When liquid flows through the housing, the liquid is acted upon by both the magnetic members and the far infrared particles.

Abstract: A moisture proof, telescoping coupler assembly for electric metal tubes and threaded rigid pipe with an enhanced grounding arrangement both internally and externally for electrically grounding and bonding the telescoping tube to the coupler body and improved continuity. Moisture proof sealing is improved by centering the electric metal tube within the coupler body adjacent the seal preventing possible leaking after securing the electric metal tube to one end. A high conductivity metal plating on an internal cantered spring improves continuity and lowers voltage drop. A modified arrangement utilizes a snap fitting retaining ring for securing an electric metal tube to the coupler body to provide for unidirectional insertion of an electric metal tube into the open end of a coupler body in a manner that prohibits unintentional separation of the tube and/or retainer ring from the coupler body.

Abstract: An ethylene oligomerization catalyst which contains a bridged diphosphine ligand having the formula (R1)m(X1)n P1-bridge-P2(R2)X2 wherein R1 and R2 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbyl and heterohydrocarbyl; X1 is selected from the group consisting of halogen, hydrocarbyl and heterohydrocarbyl; m is 1 or 2; n is 0 or 1; m + n = 2; bridge is a divalent bridging group bonded to P1 and P2; and X2 is halogen. The present ligands differ from prior diphosphine ligands used in olefin oligomerization processes in that at least one halide substituent is directly bonded to at least one P atom of the ligand. The behavior of catalysts that are prepared from a chromium salt and the present ligands is unusual and surprising. A ligand of this invention with a single F substituent and three phenyl substituents may be used to prepare a selective tetramerization catalyst which produces an oligomerization product having an octene selectivity of about 35 weight %. The replacement of the single F atom with a single Cl atom can increase the octene selectivity to about 70-75 weight %.

Abstract: In a so-called GTL process of producing synthesis gas from natural gas, producing Fischer-Tropsch oil by way of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis of the obtained synthesis gas and producing liquid hydrocarbons containing fuel oil by upgrading, the synthesis gas produced from the synthesis gas production step is partly branched off prior to getting to the Fischer-Tropsch oil production step and the synthesis gas entering the branch line is subjected to a water gas shift reaction to raise the hydrogen concentration thereof. Subsequently, high-purity hydrogen is isolated from the synthesis gas and the residual gas left after the isolation is circulated to the synthesis gas production step and used as raw material for synthesis gas production.  As a result, a significant improvement can be achieved in terms of raw material consumption per product of the entire process.

IPC: G01V1/40

Abstract: Systems and methods create velocity models for a single well or for a set of wells. In one implementation, a system optimizes a time-depth relationship applied to data points from a single well to estimate coefficients for a linear-velocity-in-time function that models the data points. The system optimizes by reducing the influence of outlier data points, for example, by weighting each data point to decrease the influence of those far from the velocity function. The system also reduces the influence of top and bottom horizons of geological layers by applying data driven techniques that estimate the velocity function in a way that reduces dependence on the boundary conditions. The systems and methods can also create velocity models based on data from a set of wells, applying a well weights method to reduce the influence of outlier wells and thereby prevent wells with aberrant data from degrading a correct velocity model.
