Patent CA-2711689-A1 (CA)
Inventor: APPS WILLIAM P
IPC: B65D19/00
Filed: 2004-04-28
Abstract: A pallet assembly (10) includes an upper deck (12) and a lower deck (14) spaced by a plurality of columns (16). The weight of the pallet is reduced without significant reduction in strength by providing only a single cross beam in each of the upper (50) and lower (20) reinforcement members and orienting them perpendicular to one another. The reinforcement members are minimized for weight reduction and for improved performance in heat tests. The peripheral rail of the upper reinforcement member (50) is reduced such that it rests on only an inwardly open recess on an inner corner of each of the corner columns. This reduces the size and weight of the upper reinforcement member (50), while still providing support to the upper deck (12). Additionally, the peripheral rails of both the upper (12) and lower decks (14) are reduced in length such that either ledge does not directly support them while the pallet is stored on a rack (70). As a result, in the case of sufficient heat source on the pallets, the pallets will eventually collapse without interference from the reinforcement members and at least partially smother the heat source.

Filed: 2011-05-04
Abstract: An artificial lift system provides an artificial lift design specifically for the pumping of liquids from natural gas wells, but not limited to this application. In doing so, production rates and reserves recovered can be significantly increased. The artificial lift system uses small diameter continuous tubing to run the pump in the hole and deliver small volumes of high pressure dry gas as a power fluid to the pump. This power fluid forces liquid that has been drawn into the pump from the bottom of the wellbore to surface.  By removing the liquids from the wellbore the natural gas can flow unrestricted to surface. The design and equipment allow for a cost effective artificial lift alternative.

Title: Interferometry-based downhole analysis tool
Inventor: MORYS MARIAN L
IPC: G01N21/21
Filed: 2009-12-23
Abstract: Various systems and methods for performing optical analysis downhole with an interferogram (a light beam having frequency components with a time variation that identifies those frequency components. The interferogram is produced by introducing an interferometer into the light path, with the two arms of the interferometer having a propagation time difference that varies as a function of time. Before or after the interferometer, the light encounters a material to be analyzed, such as a fluid sample from the formation, a borehole fluid sample, a core sample, or a portion of the borehole wall. The spectral characteristics of the material are imprinted on the light beam and can be readily analyzed by processing electronics that perform a Fourier Transform to obtain the spectrum or that enable a comparison with one or more templates.  An interferometer designed to perform well in the hostile environments downhole is expected to enable laboratory-quality measurements.

Filed: 2010-06-01
Abstract: Architecture that employs an overall grammar as a set of context-specific grammars for recognition of an input, each responsible for a specific context, such as subtask category, geographic region, etc. The grammars together cover the entire domain. Moreover, multiple recognitions can be run in parallel against the same input, where each recognition uses one or more of the context-specific grammars. The multiple intermediate recognition results from the different recognizer-grammars are reconciled by running re-recognition using a dynamically com-posed grammar based on the multiple recognition results and po-tentially other domain knowledge, or selecting the winner using a statistical classifier operating on classification features extract-ed from the multiple recognition results and other domain knowledge.
