Title: Biopolymer/oil suspension compositions utilized in aqueous-based fluids used in the oil service industry including completion and drilling fluids
Inventor: GAMBINO JAMES
IPC: C09K8/10
Filed: 1997-02-12
Granted: 2006-07-18
Abstract: The invention involves biopolymer/oil suspension composition for the oil service industry, most particularly drilling and completion fluids, which provide such fluid a variety of desirable properties. Biopolymers include water soluble polymers and water swellable polymers. Such biopolymer/oil suspension compositions are essentially mixtures of biopolymers such as cellulosics in an oil medium with a specific anti-settling additive. The invention is particularly directed to providing enhanced anti-settling properties to such bipolymer/oil compositions; that is, the ability of the biopolymer/oil composition to retain the bioplymers in suspension prior to the composition being introduced into drilling and completion fluids. The invention in one embodiment is described as a liquid biopolymer-in-oil additive compositions for use in aqueous-based completion fluids containing an agent comprising: a) one or more polyamides, and b) hydrogenated caster oils including castorwax.

Title: Stretch resistant vaso-occlusive coils
Inventor: KEN CHRISTOPHER G M
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 1997-02-27
Granted: 2001-01-16
Abstract: This is an implantable vaso-occlusive device. It is typically a vaso-occlusive coil comprising a primary helically wound coil which may then be wound into a secondary shape. Central to the invention is the use of a stretch-resisting member extending through the lumen formed, which stretch -resisting member is fixedly attached, directly or indirectly, to the coil in at least two locations. The stretch resisting member is preferably somewhat loose within the interior of the lumen so to prevent the coil from collapsing, binding, and therefore stiffening during passage of turns through the human body. The coil should bend easily. In some variations of the invention, the stretch-resisting member may beformed into coil tips at the ends of the coil using simple equipment such as soldering irons or the like. The tips are typically of the same diameter as is the coil body itself. This stretch-resisting member is for the primary purpose of preventing stretching of the coil during movement of that coil, e.g., by retrieval or repositioning after deployment. The device may have a self-forming secondary shape made from a pre-formed primary linear helically wound coil, although it need not have the secondary form. Desirably, the coil is extremely flexible and is controllaby released using a severable or mechanical joint such as an electrolytically detachable joint. External fibers may be attached to the device and affixed to the pre-formed linear member to increase thrombogenicity. The extremely flexible variation of the invention may be hydraulically delivered through the lumen of a catheter and is so flexible that it may be retrievably delivered therethrough a flow-directed catheter. The vaso-occlusive member may be also be covered with a fibrous braid. The device is typically introduced intothe body through a catheter. The device is passed axially through the catheter sheath and assumes its secondary form upon exiting the catheter.

Title: Automatic restart control for a submersible pump
Inventor: RAYNER MARK D
IPC: H02P1/26
Filed: 1999-04-14
Granted: 2009-07-07
Abstract: A method for restarting a motor of a submersible pump after a power interruption is disclosed. The system first detects when the power is turned back on to the system. A control means then samples signals sent back from the unpowered motor and determines the frequency and phase sequence of the signals. The speed and direction of operation of the motor are then determined from the determined frequency and phase sequence. A first pulse width modulation waveform is then applied to the motor matching the determined speed and direction of the motor. Finally, the output frequency of the waveform can be adjusted to adjust the speed and direction of operation of the motor until the motor reaches a desired speed and direction of operation.
