Title: Completion apparatus and methods for use in wellbores
Inventor: MACKAY ALEXANDER CRAIG
IPC: E21B43/10
Filed: 2002-06-24
Abstract: An apparatus and methods for preventing the accumulation of unwanted materials in an enlarged inner diameter portion (160) of a casing or housing (110). In one aspect of the invention, a sleeve (150) is disposed in the housing to isolate an annular area (155) defined by the outer surface sleeve and the wall of the enlarged inner diameter portion. The sleeve prevents unwanted materials from being disposed in the annular area. The sleeve can later be expanded into the enlarged inner diameter portion, removed from the wellbore or destroyed.  In another aspect of the invention, the sleeve is provided and disposed to cover the enlarged inner diameter portion. By covering the enlarged inner diameter portion, unwanted material is prevented from accumulating at said portion and from interfering with the expansion of the next casing into said portion to form a monobore. The sleeve can be made from materials that are dissolvable, elastically deformable, or retrievable.

Title: Method and system for multi-level power management in an optical network
Inventor: MCCLOSKEY MICHAEL JOSEPH
IPC: H04B10/00
Filed: 2003-11-20
Abstract: A method and system for multi-level power management in an optical network is provided. They include three levels of power equalization. The first level of power management equalizes the powers of channels in a band of channels. The second level of power management equalizes the average powers of bands of channels on a fiber. The third level of control equalizes the powers of bands of channels on working and protection fibers for a path in the optical network. As a result, this multi-level power management in the network provides a dynamic, automatic method for the network to adjust to changing operating conditions and configurations and to maintain relatively stable network powers. Each level of power management may be implemented jointly or independently, and operates autonomously so that, for example, one modification comprises continuous first level control and only periodic second level control.

Patent CA-2460159-A1 (CA)
Title: Fluid delivery system
Inventor: ROBINSON KENNETH
IPC: E03B7/04
Filed: 2002-09-12
Abstract: A fluid delivery system is described whereby sterile liquid may be delivered efficiently to a number of remote locations while nevertheless maintaining a continuous fluid flow through the system to prevent any bacterial growth. The system includes a storage tank feeding a first pipework loop including a first pump which urges fluid through said first loop at a first pressure and which returns to the tank, and also includes at least one pipework branch fed from the tank and having a second pump which urges fluid through the branch at a second pressure downstream of the second pump. The system functions efficaciously in that a branch manifold terminates each branch and a return manifold is provided in the first pipework loop. Between these two manifolds are connected one or more supply hoses interrupted by an offtake component which is a simple valve opening through which the fluid can be selectively delivered at the desired location. When one or more offtakes are opened, the conventional fluid flow in the hose which links that offtake to the return manifold is reversed on account of the pressures at which the two pumps in the firs pipework loop and the pipework branches operate. This type of operation allows for practically 100 % diversity, i.e. that condition where as many or as few offtakes in the system can be opened simultaneously without any practical reduction in the availability of fluid.

Title: Stable isotope-labeled amino acid and method for incorporating the same into target protein, nmr method for the structural analysis of protein and method for producing regio-selective stable isotope-labeled fumaric acid and tartaric acid
Inventor: KAINOSHO MASATSUNE
IPC: C07C229/24
Filed: 2002-12-19
Abstract: It is intended to provide a stable isotope-labeled amino acid which is at least one of amino acids constituting protein, characterized by having at least one of the following labeling patterns: (a) in one or more methylene groups, methylene hydrogen atoms other than at least one have been deuterate d; (b) in prochiral gem-methyl groups, hydrogen atoms in one of the methyl grou ps have been completely deuterated; (c) in prochiral gem-methyl groups, hydroge n atoms in the methyl groups have been partially deuterated; and (d) hydrogen atoms in a methyl group other than one have been deuterated while hydrogen atoms in an aromatic ring have been partially deuterated. Using this stable isotope-labeled amino acid, deuterium substitution of a protein can be achieved without worsening the NMR sensitivity of the residual hydrogen nucleus. Thus, an NMR spectrum of a high-molecular weight protein exceeding the upper limit applicable in the prior art can be quickly and surely analyz ed and the stereostructure can be highly precisely determined at the same time.
