Patent CA-2490980-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HAWKINSON ELLEN B
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2003-06-30
Abstract: An OPC redirection manager maintains the information necessary for taking appropriate action when the target OPC server fails and for ensuring that no bad status is returned to the client. Any existing OPC client needing seamle ss failover between target OPC data access and/or alarm and event servers will connect to a uniquely configured instance of the redirection manager instead of connecting to the primary server. The client application continues to perform OPC related tasks as usual. Because each client connection is unique , the redirection manager itself is not a single point of failure. Each configured redirection manager instance monitors the health of the target server mode and the target server itself by subscribing to failure events.</ SDOAB>

Title: Method for improved vertical sweep of oil reservoirs
Inventor: STONE HERBERT L
IPC: E21B43/00
Filed: 2004-05-10
Abstract: In a WAG flood oil is displaced from a subterranean formation by injecting water alternately with gas into a single injection completion per pattern. The ratio of water to gas injected is the WAG ratio. In this invention, two separate injection completions (14, 16) are used in each pattern, with one placed directly above the other. A very low WAG ratio is used for injection into the bottom extremity of the formation. A very high WAG ratio is injected into the upper interval, at as high a rate can safely be used without fracturing the formation. In the preferred embodiment, two horizontal well bores (14, 16) serve as the two completion intervals. Proper design of this method gives a vertical sweep efficiency of the gas that is several-fold greater than the best of previous WAG flood designs, especially in thin formations.
