IPC: E21B43/12
Filed: 2012-05-15
Abstract: Methods enhance hydrocarbon recovery through gas production control for noncondensable gases in SAGD or ES-SAGD. Steam injected into one or more injection wells heats the hydrocarbons and reduces their viscosity to more easily produce the hydrocarbons. A noncondensable gas may be injected into the injection wells to reduce the steam-to-oil ratio, improving economic recovery. Excessive production of noncondensable gases can adversely suppress hydrocarbon production rates. To counteract this problem, gas production rates may be controlled by limiting the produced gas-to-water ratio. The noncondensable gas may comprise a combustion gas such as flue gas. Advantages include higher efficiencies, lower costs, reduced hydrocarbon extraction time, and in some embodiments, reduced greenhouse gas emissions.

Abstract: An electrosurgical generator and related systems and methods using a gain-compensated full bridge topology. Gain nonlinearity is corrected by applying impedance and phase correction factors to a control loop to achieve a linear gain structure. In embodiments, gain compensation is performed by comparing an RF setpoint signal with a calculated output signal to generate a first error signal. An impedance correction factor is applied to the first error signal to generate a second error signal. The second error signal is processed by a proportional-integral-derivative controller to generate a phase control signal. A phase control correction factor is applied to the phase control signal to generate a corrected pulse width modulation driving signal, which is used to generate PWM  driving signals for a full-bridge inverter. One or more sensors provide feedback for comparison with the RF setpoint.
