Patent CA-2539015-A1 (CA)
Inventor: AZARI MEHDI
IPC: E21B49/00
Filed: 2006-03-10
Abstract: A method for designing a closed-chamber drillstem test system. Parameters of available equipment and a well to be tested are collected. Initial or proposed chamber size and chamber pressurizing fluids are then selected. A simulation of a test is then performed. The simulation is performed in time increments, with pressure in the well assumed to be static during each time increment. Calculated flow volume from the formation during each increment is used to adjust pressure in the well for the next increment. The process is continued until the test would be considered complete based on an optimization parameter. If the total simulated time to complete the test is not in a desirable range, the initial chamber parameters are changed and the simulation is run again. The process is repeated until the simulated test time reaches a desirable range.

Abstract: Pour les transactions financières nécessitant la vérification du numéro d'identification personnel (NIP), le client peut maintenant choisir son propre numéro au moment où il sollicite l'instrument de transaction financière ou son compte. Le client saisit son NIP qui est alors crypté au moyen d'un système unique de cryptage pour transaction. Le client saisit une seconde fois son NIP qui est de nouveau crypté au moyen d'un système unique de cryptage pour transaction. Ce procédé a pour effet de créer deux blocs de données au moyen du même NIP, mais les valeurs cryptées des blocs sont différentes. Ces blocs sont transmis à un système de sécurité central qui peut inverser le processus de cryptage jusqu'à un point où il peut générer une valeur de décalage sur la base des blocs reçus. Si les NIP ont été saisis de la même manière, les valeurs de décalage seront les mêmes, mais elles seront différentes si les NIP n'ont pas été saisis de la même manière. Ainsi, cette technique permet au client de choisir et de saisir son propre code NIP, ce code étant vérifié par le système sans que ce dernier ne connaisse effectivement la valeur de ce code NIP.

Abstract: A binding system for applying a vertical compressive force to the refractory walls of a rectangular or circular furnace comprises a compressive member engaging a laterally extending surface of the furnace wall and a support member to which the compressive member is connected. The compressive member preferably comprises a coil spring which acts directly on the laterally extending surface or indirectly through a force-applying member. The force applied by the compressive member is sufficient to control vertical expansion and substantially prevent vertical expansion of the furnace walls due to infiltration of material into the joints between the refractory bricks during operation of the furnace.
