Patent CA-2679649-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STEWART GEORGE
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 2008-02-27
Abstract: In an underbalanced drilling system and method, a change is induced in flowing bottom hole pressure in a wellbore. Data of the surface flow rate of effluent is then measured in response to the induced change. This measured data is obtained using a multi-phase flow meter before a separator of the underbalanced drilling system. Algorithms in computer software analyze the flowing bottomhole pressure and the measured surface flow rate data and determine both permeability and formation pressure for a portion of the wellbore in realtime during the underbalanced drilling operation. Ultimately, portion of the wellbore is characterized with the determined permeability and formation pressure.

Abstract: A connection for firmly securing an adapter for detachably carrying a replaceable digging tooth at its front end to a lip of an excavating container of excavating equipment. The adapter has an upper leg and a lower leg located proximate respective upper and lower surfaces of the lip. The connection has substantially aligned openings in the legs and the lip, and engagement sections of the adapter legs traverse the opening in the lip proximate and forward of an aft end thereof. A pressure applying unit, such as a hydraulic actuator, is arranged inside the opening and generates a generally horizontally acting force which draws the adapter and the lip towards each other. A stress member, which can be a C-clamp, is operatively coupled to the hydraulic actuator and resiliently deforms relative to its relaxed shape when it is subjected to the horizontally acting force. A spacer, such as a wedge, is inserted between the hydraulic actuator and the openings while the horizontally acting force resiliently deforms the stress member. The wedge is shaped so that upon a reduction or cessation of the horizontally acting force the stress member, e.g. the C-clamp, remains in the resiliently deformed state in which it draws the adapter and the lip towards each other and keeps them immovably secured to each other until the wedge can be withdrawn following a repressurization of the hydraulic actuator.

Abstract: Oral compositions comprising an association of one or of a mixture of phytoestrogens, selective for the estrogen receptor-.beta., with dietary fibres are described. The compositions thereof can be profitably used for the prophylactic and therapeutic treatment in mammals, including humans, of health conditions characterised by a high risk of onset and recurrence of intestinal adenomas (adenopolyposis coli), and of adenoma's progression to colorectal carcinoma. In presence of pre-cancerous lesions in the colon, characterised by mutations of the APC tumor suppressor and defined as polyps or adenomas, the oral compositions disclosed can be in fact profitably used to reduce the number and volume of polyps, and to prevent their progression to neoplastic transformation, reducing their degree of dysplasia.
