Title: Measurement of packet loss ratio in a network using end-point data
Inventor: CISNEROS ARTURO
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2004-01-28
Abstract: The packet loss ratio for a network is measured using only end-point packet counter or byte counter data received from ingress and egress network elements, or all edge routers attached to edge network elements in a virtual private network (VPN). After preprocessing the packet count data from the end-points, the data signal is put through a low pass filter of one or more tap sizes to remove high frequency variations in the ingress and egress packet count data due to the inability to sample selected data sets simultaneously.  After filtering the data may be integrated in order to increase detection of small amounts of data packet loss. In order to determine if measurable loss has been detected the standard deviation of the signal is calculated over a selected set of data points prior to the window in which the packet loss ratio is calculated. If the detected packet loss is greater than a predetermined detectability threshold based on the computed standard deviation for a target threshold rate for a certain filter size then the loss rate is reported.

Title: Pumping water from a natural gas well
Inventor: GEIER HOWARD
IPC: F04B47/00
Filed: 2005-12-12
Abstract: In de-watering a gas well the water is pumped by an inverted API pump acting as a reciprocating pump from a position in the casing below the formation and the gas escapes through the casing around the transport tubes. The pump is driven by a downhole engine in the form of a cylinder and piston which is moved by a hydraulic pump at the surface to generate a hydraulic flow to drive the piston and causing fluid to be transferred from the cylinder on the other side of the piston to a counterbalance chamber against a back pressure provided by a charge of nitrogen gas. At the end of a pumping stroke, pressure in the hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic pump is released to cause the back pressure of the counterbalance chamber to drive the piston back to the start position.
