Patent GB-2348779-A (GB)
Title: Controlling an inaccessible sonde
Inventor: FLING RICHARD WILLIAM
IPC: E21B7/06
Filed: 2000-02-04
Abstract: In order to control the sonde of an underground or inaccessible object (10), such as an underground boring tool, a predetermined sequence of rotation steps is applied to the object (10) and that sequence is detected by the sonde. The detection of the appropriate sequence causes the sonde (20) to change its function, for example by changing the carrier frequency of the magnetic signal transmitted by the sonde (20) or to change the data output sequence or transfer rate, or to change the output power. While it is possible to use a single rotation step, the use of more than one step, with each step to be carried out within a predetermined time, reduces the risk of error.

Title: Method of generating perforations in subterranean formations
Inventor: NICHOLSON ELIZABETH DIANE
IPC: E21B43/119
Filed: 2000-04-26
Abstract: Perforations are formed in a formation of a well by firstly determining the orientation of the bedding planes of the formation, and then defining an orientation for a perforation relative to the bedding planes. The perforation is then made in the bedding plane and the stress concentration along the circumference of the cross section of the hole generated by the perforation is calculated. The process is then repeated until the calculated stress concentration along the cross-section is equal, within chosen tolerances. The method may also include the steps calculating an effective radius for the cross-section at a minimum of two points and taking into account the permeability of the formation when determining the orientation of the perforations.

Title: Service period safety device for combustible fuel heating apparatus
Inventor: NORTON ALAN
IPC: F24H9/20
Filed: 2000-05-27
Abstract: The safety device (1) is provided to require an engineer to service a central heating boiler (2) within a predetermined period, the service period. The safety device (1) has a disabling switch (4), a timer (5) and a reset switch (9). The device may include a quartz crystal (6), a micro controller (7), a non-volatile memory (8), a battery backup and a programmer (3). In the preferred embodiment the quartz crystal (6) provides the time base for the circuit and a count of the elapsed time is maintained within the counter of controller (7). The counting continues until the servicing period is reached, at which time the controller (7) sends a signal to the disabling switch (4) which prevents the boiler (2) from functioning. The heating apparatus may be disabled by preventing either, the supply of fuel to the boiler (2), the ignition of the fuel within the boiler (2) or a programmer (3) from starting the boiler (2). In order to restart the boiler (2), reset switch (9) is pressed which resets the counter in the controller (7) to zero allowing the boiler (2) to function again. Unauthorised access to the reset switch (9) may be prevented and/or it may be concealed.

Patent GB-2359225-A (GB)
Title: Deferred acknowledgment communications
Inventor: BENNETT WILLIAM E
IPC: H04L47/27
Filed: 2000-10-13
Abstract: A communication technique enables the efficient transmission of data through a low bandwidth and/or time delayed communication link and minimizes the idle time of the communication link by using a deferred acknowledgment of message bundles to temporally pack the communication link. The transmitting system stores messages to be transmitted in a pending message queue and applies a dynamic window to the pending message queue to define a message bundle to be sent through the slow communication link. The transmitting system requests an acknowledgment for at least one message within the bundle, but does not require an acknowledgment for every message within the bundle. Transmitted messages are temporarily stored as outstanding messages in a retransmission queue until the transmitted messages are acknowledged or until a time-out period associated with the messages has lapsed. When the transmitting station receives a timely acknowledgment in response to a requested acknowledgment, the transmitting station removes all outstanding messages associated with that acknowledgment from the retransmission queue.

Title: A Shroud For Use With An Electric Downhole Pump
Inventor: WATSON ARTHUR I
IPC: E21B37/02
Filed: 2000-12-06
Abstract: A shroud 50 surrounds a downhole pump and motor assembly (14,16, Fig 1), and is formed into longitudinal corrugations, such that it has raised portions 60, and low portions 62. In use pumped fluid is drawn along the outside of the shroud in the low portions 62, and in the opposite direction between the shroud 50 and the motor and pump assembly in the raised portions 60. The corrugated shroud 50 thus provides both mechanical protection of the pump and motor assembly, and a cooling flow of pumped fluid along the motor and pump assembly, even where pump-to-wellbore clearance is low. Attachment to the assembly is by means of a series of lugs 76. The shroud 50 may be sectional, connected by channel sections (151, fig 8A). The shroud my be constructed such that it is axially offset from the motor and pump assembly in order to accommodate a power cable (64, fig 3) within it.
