Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé amélioré pour fracturer un gel de suspension liquide, le procédé étant caractérisé par un nouvel et meilleur mécanisme de fragmentation. En outre, l'invention concerne un procédé de fracturation caractérisé par un meilleur transfert de matière ou une plus grande mobilité, par exemple, au moyen d'un agent de soutènement de fond de puits amélioré et/ou au moyen d'un autre procédé de transport de solides, utilisés en parallèle ou en combinaison avec un système de gel de fragmentation amélioré. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, l'invention concerne un procédé de fracturation qui consiste à fournir et à utiliser une suspension liquide de fracturation contenant une quantité efficace d'un matériau de fragmentation particulaire solide qui possède des caractéristiques de fragmentation ou de dégradation à retardement, ladite suspension comprenant éventuellement une certaine quantité de fibres et/ou de plaquettes durables, suffisante pour renforcer dans un puits de forage des solides tels que les agents de soutènement et de transport. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, la matière particulaire solide qui comprend ou qui est constituée d'un composé ou d'une composition organique polymère déterminé(e) possédant un poids moléculaire moyen d'au moins 10,000 (ou un mélange de ces composés ou compositions) et avec laquelle réagit ou que décompose la matière organique polymère solide (comme c'est décrit plus haut) est combinée avec un liquide de fracturation qui contient un agent de gélification et de soutènement précis pour former une suspension de liquide de fracturation. Cette suspension est pompée au fond du puits et déposée sous forme de suspension en gel dans la formation souterraine, en règle générale dans des conditions de fracturation. De préférence, la matière particulaire solide se présente sous forme de fibres.

Title: Systeme de traitement de l'eau sur le lieu d'utilisation
Inventor: SNYDER GREG
IPC: B01D27/00
Filed: 2000-06-14
Granted: 2008-10-07
Abstract: L'invention concerne une unité (20) à système de traitement de l'eau sur le lieu d'utilisation (WTS), pour le filtrage et le traitement de contaminants présents dans l'eau. L'unité WTS (20) peut comporter un premier enroulement primaire (74) placé dans une unité de base (22) qui alimente de manière inductive un dispositif de traitement secondaire, tel qu'un ensemble à lampe UV (24). Un ensemble filtre (26) présentant un bloc filtrant (90) et une enveloppe interne (92) s'étendant à l'intérieur du bloc filtrant (90), est utilisé. L'enveloppe interne (92) délimite une chambre dans laquelle le dispositif de traitement secondaire (24) peut être placé. Des première et deuxième soupapes et joints peuvent être placés entre l'ensemble filtre (26), le dispositif de traitement secondaire (24) et l'unité de base (22), de manière à permettre le remplacement séparé desdits ensemble filtre (26) et dispositif de traitement secondaire (24). Le dispositif de traitement secondaire (24) peut être un ensemble à lampe (24) comprenant un élément de condensation (84) conçu pour condenser le mercure dans une ampoule située sur le trajet de l'arc entre les filaments (444). Le maintien du mercure condensé entre les filaments (444) permet de réduire le temps nécessaire à l'ensemble lampe (24) pour produire des émissions lumineuses d'une intensité prédéterminée lors d'une excitation subséquente, par rapport au cas où le mercure est condensé à l'extérieur du trajet de l'arc. Un ensemble réflecteur (402) peut être utilisé dans l'ensemble à lampe (24) pour la concentration du rayonnement sur les conduits (80) transportant l'eau et pour que le retour à l'ensemble à ampoule (82) duquel le rayonnement a été émis à l'origine soit empêché. Une enceinte extérieure ou un boîtier entoure les ensemble ampoule et réflecteur (82, 402), de manière que l'ensemble lampe (24) forme un récipient sous pression généralement fermé. De même, un conducteur de lumière (250) imprégné de liquide fluorescent peut être utilisé pour la conversion de la lumière UV en lumière visible et pour faciliter ainsi le contrôle de l'intensité de sortie lumineuse de l'ensemble lampe (24). Le conducteur de lumière sert également de filtre principalement pour l'émission de lumière d'une certaine longueur d'onde (verte) et l'inhibition simultanée de la transmission de lumière par le conducteur de lumière (250) à d'autres longueurs d'onde.

Granted: 2011-09-06
Abstract: A method and apparatus for rejecting a request for call initialization a device capable of multi-mode communications. A user of the multi-mode wireless communication device enters one or more desired communication modes into the wireless communication device, where an indication of the selected mode(s) are stored in a memory. When a page message is received by the wireless communication device, it is examined to determine if a communication mode of an incoming call associated with the page message matches the indication of the selected communication mode(s) as stored in the memory. If a match is determined, the incoming call is accepted by the wireless communication device. If the communication mode of the incoming call does not match the indication of the selected communication mode(s), the call is rejected by the wireless communication device without interrupting the user or a call already in progress.

Title: Plug-dropping container for releasing a plug into a wellbore
Inventor: PEDERSEN GERALD DEAN
IPC: E21B33/05
Filed: 2003-01-23
Granted: 2007-03-13
Abstract: The plug-dropping container (2) comprises an elongated housing (10), and a canister (30) disposed co-axially within the housing. The canister (30) is movable from a lower position to an upper position. In its lower position, a fluid bypass area (16) is defined above the canister. When a dart (8) is retained within the canister, fluid is diverted through the bypass (16) and around the canister (30) within an annular area defined between the canister and the housing (10). In one aspect, the canister (30) is moved by rotation of a plug-retaining device (40) below the canister. In its plug-retained position, the plug-retaining device is oriented so that the wall (44) of the plug-retaining device blocks the downward path of the dart (8). In the plug-released position, the plug-retaining device (40) raises the canister (30) to its upper position, substantially shutting off the bypass (16). A channel (45) in the plug-retaining device is thus aligned with a channel (35) in the canister for receiving the plug, and for release into the wellbore (18).

IPC: G01V11/00
Filed: 2003-12-16
Granted: 2013-02-12
Abstract: Modeling method for creating a diffusive type, 2D or 3D model, simulating the multilithological filling of a sedimentary basin over geological periods. -The model is based on numerical simulation of the evolution of a sedimentary basin, from the past to the present, in a series of time steps. For each time step, three major phenomena interact and are numerically modelled: the deformation of the basin, the addition of sediments and the movement of these sediments in the deformed basin. To model the movement of the sediments, the permanent, long-term movement (creep process, slow diffusion, etc.), short-term movement (caused by rain and flood waters) and catastrophic movements (specifically following cliff collapses) are taken into account, using an exponential model of water speed. -Applications specifically to the petroleum and mining industries (searches for deposits, better quantification of hydrocarbon reserves, etc.) as well as to the environment (better understanding of the evolution of sedimentary basins, water table levels, or of storage zones of petroleum nuclear waste etc.).
